I have come here to chew bubblegum and block screens, and I'm all out of bubblegum.
- onemoresoop 8y agoI've had the same reaction, "They live" was an unforgettable movie. These glasses appear to have the same design as well
- dumbfounder 8y agoNice, I didn't read the article but immediately that movie came to mind.
- enraged_camel 8y agoThe alley fight scene is one of the funniest scenes ever made. I watch clips of it occasionally and it never fails to make me laugh. What is remarkable about it though is that it's also chock full of cultural commentary.
