Lost Boy

March 10th, 2010

So it’s happened, Corey Haim has passed away via an accidental overdose. He was 38.

Sad, sad news (and who’d a thunk Corey Feldman would be the one who’d live longer) and a little bit of my youth just left with him … If you’re going to watch a Corey Haim movie this weekend, everyone will be thinking of THE LOST BOYS, of course, but for my money, you cannot do better than the film Lucas (1986), which is an excellent coming of age movie.

Check it out.

Rest in peace, Corey.

Hard Habit To Break | Ask MetaFilter

Via Alex at Complications Ensue, this is a thread to fine a better word to use as an insult rather than “retard” (and personally I never liked it when people used that one) and still stay PG … the whole thing is here: Hard Habit To Break | Ask MetaFilter

My two favorites thus far are douchewhistle and butter-head.
