27 years, I'm staying. I'm finishing my coffee... Enjoying my coffee..
Some thoughts on The Big Lebowski and the thematic importance of the two bands most closely associated with the film.

on the contrary! Not let down at all. Important to remember humor. #CourtJester, #BigLebowski, #RockyHorror, and of course #BluesBrothers.

Because depreciation of assets is just estimated using a formula, if we hired people to go around busting up cars with a crowbar like Walter in The Big Lebowski, we'd see GDP go way up from all those repairs and new car purchases...
Now you know what happens when we find a stranger in the alps... #thebiglebowski #BigLebowski
My daughter did this drawing of The Dude, Donnie, and Walter when she was 9 years old (15 years ago) and now I can wear it! #TheBigLebowski #BigLebowski #TheDude #Walter #Donnie #LittleLebowskiUrbanAchiever
In 2024, Israel has one dialect. One pronunciation. Which makes things so much easier!
Some people pronounce Hebrew words in Yiddish or using other dialects or pronunciations.
My expertise in teaching you Hebrew as it is used by Israelis in Israel, today... the one dialect / pronunciation we have in Israel of 2024
…For example, as part of my new quest to link the character of the Dude from The Big Lebowski to Starsky and Hutch, I began to wonder if the White Russian cocktail appears much in S&H.
Someone out there on the internet, for reasons presumably of their own, put up a web page detailing all of Starsky & Hutch’s interactions with alcohol, through the complete run of the show.
(The White Russian does not significantly figure.)
I think this is a deliberate reference. The Dude is wearing his version of a Starsky sweater.
The other Starsky and Hutch reference is the car. Starsky’s car is famously a mid-70s Ford Gran Torino. Guess what the Dude drives.
I think the Coen brothers must be big Starsky and Hutch fans. Or the Dude is meant to be.
Now I need to see if Starsky (or Hutch) likes White Russians, or if either has an oriental rug.
I forgot to post this unsolicited dick pic yesterday as part of #dayofthedude #thebiglebowski #biglebowski
Als geweihter Priester dieser ehrenwerten Kirche wünsche ich euch und uns allen einen gesegnet entspannten "Day of the Dude".
I don't see the iconic rug listed here, which is odd as you'd think that would be the most wanted item. After all, it really ties a room together.
Still, I kinda want that robe.

Okay, that's a #BigLebowski reference successfully added, I think that means we're pretty much ready to release the game???
(Narrator: They were not ready to release the game.)
((I guess there's also a #Bakhtin reference in there, if that is relevant to your interests.))
