So as we reach the level we will be unlocking them in this forum? 

Like an achievement?

[Pitchpatch]

A lame achievement, if any.

I was going to also add the names of first user to reach each milestone, but don't want folks posting for volume rather than content.

I expect I'll be the one to break each cherry, all the way to Talking Asshole.

I highly recommend the Naked Lunch commentary with Cronenberg and Weller (recorded separately, sadly).  Two very smart gentlemen who know the material inside out.

Is that a beetle typewriter? I've never seen that before.

[Pitchpatch]

One of several...









Unfortunately I can't find a pic of the typewriter that turns into a human torso fucking machine.

Do we have a replacement yet for Cronenberg as master of disturbing visuals?  (Do not cite Takashi Miike -- let's keep it in the realm of the palatable.)









If there's one director who SHOULD take the helm of the zombie genre right now, it's Cronenberg.  Wow, just imagining how he might turn the genre on its head...

His first film was effectively a zombie flick:

EDIT: Typewriter turning into a randy human torso... pics now attached.  I feel like I should add a NSFW warning.  For a typewriter growing a penis.  Too late now.  Have fun explaining that to your boss.  And blame Cronenberg for any homoerotic confusion weirding you out right now.  I can hear him giggling all the way from Toronto.

Somebody's about to hit the big 250 and reveal the next post-count title.

I'm excited!  This marks the halfway point in the ladder.  I will be a Talking Asshole, oh yes, and certified.

You're kidding right? Before I bought a computer I typed on one all the time. People always used to say 'great script. A few bugs but we can fix that.' Huh, huh, huh.

[Pitchpatch]

Bwahaha.

I yield, sir.  I yield.
