A Saturday Night Live skit launched a Twitter Account

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, about a week or two ago, there was a Saturday Night Live skit with the actor who played Kylo Ren in the new Star Wars movie. It was a parody of “Undercover Boss” (a TV show where bosses go undercover to see what life is “really like.”) So, basically, Kylo Ren goes undercover as “Matt, the radar technician”, to see what work-life is really like on Starkiller Base.

Yes, there are some cringe-worthy moments in that video. But, the entire thing has sparked another Twitter account: Matt the Radar Technician.

Whoever’s posting is doing a great job of tweeting from the character of “Matt, the radar technician.” It’s woth following, if you’re on Twitter.

Have a lovely Sunday!

A Paranoia One-Shot Was Fantastic (But Very R rated.)

Greetings, readers!

I recently encountered a very amusing (but definitely “R-rated” if it were a feature film) broadcast Paranoia One-Shot.

Paranoia is a Role Play system based in a dystopia where your “Friend, the Computer” is in charge. Friend computer is paranoid about Mutant-Commie-Traitor-Scum. Players are encouraged to be backstabbing and not overly collaborative.

In this one-shot, Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton were both playing. It is a four hour long episode. If you have the time, and are not easily offended, (It is very R-rated, and quite NOT Safe For Work) it is worth it.

(After all, what else are Saturdays for?)

I hope you have a good weekend.

A version of Pride and Prejudice I might enjoy…

Greetings, readers!

I was recently informed that a former Doctor from Doctor Who (Matt Smith, the 11th Doctor) is in the upcoming movie version of “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.” I thus found a trailer. It is a bit bloodier than some things shared, but I think this might actually be a version I could potentially enjoy.

I doubt they will address my still existing issues with the original, but at least the zombies should add an interesting element. Matt Smith should also add character.

I hope you have a good weekend.

So. Three years…

Hiya, Fluffsters!

Today marks Total Fluff’s THIRD BIRTHDAY! YAY!

In honor of that, here’s a list of some of the things that have happened this year, and some of my favorite posts. (There’s going to be either a favorite post from a month, or an “event” from the month.)

Starting backwards: I’m still fairly pleased with my post about cups from yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve done a list this year, I think. So, yeah. I’m happy with it.

From December, I rather like the “dirt cheap” post. (The question still stands, by the way…)

I should probably include one of Fluffy’s posts. So, her thoughts about music can qualify for November’s post.

(Ok, fine. And a bonus one, because I can’t resist once more showing off my picture of California Fall Foliage…)

October saw the 1000th Fluff Post!

October also was the month of the 999th fluff post. I am rather pleased with my contribution to that post, so I am including it. Hopefully the Webmaster does not notice this being slipped in.

Yes, this is a bit more self-centered of me than usual, but I had a really weird dream in September. And it’s the closest thing I could find to semi-reasonable original content for the month. So, yep.

August’s “Important Post” can happen once in a blue moon

July, I (again) commented on the challenges of getting to bed.

June, I actually wrote a short story!

May, I wrote a post that is a bit weird to go back to. It’s about, I kid you not, wall textures.

We have definitive proof, readers: The Webmaster confuses herself on occasion.

I finally “broke” in April, and let out a rant about a misinterpretation of a Disney movie (and a meme associated with it) that I’d been stewing on for a while

The important post from March is the Pi Day one. (I’m definitely letting Fluffy take the March one.) Last year, you may recall, was the Most ePIc Pi Day In My Life (in all probability.) So, of course that post gets featured for March.

On a somewhat depressing note (given the time of year), Fluffy shared a slightly bizarre question about spring and winter in February.

And… that takes us back to The Second Birthday!

I hope you have a lovely day.

A post about cups.

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hiya, Fluffsters!

I’m in a totally random mood as I’m writing this. And for some reason, I decided that I wanted to write a post about cups. I have no clue where this is going, so, yeah. Here ‘goes!

Oh dear.

So, yeah. Cups. Here are some fun things about cups.

  1. It’s a fun word to say. I mean, even just to think it. Cups. You basically need to use two syllables. I think it’s technically a single-syllable word. But, just try saying it. It’s clearly two. (I think it’s the “ps” combination that really does it.)
  2. They’re one of the few dining items that can be turned into something you do with your hands. You can cup your hands. However, you really can’t fork your hands. Or bowl them. (You can cup them into a bowl, though, which is also cool!)
  3. So, that means that Cups are also able to transform. If you can cup things into a bowl, that’s pretty fantastic.
  4. They come in lots of styles. Some of them are even elongated, thus meaning that they can come in “wide varieties.”

…You did not just do that.

But I did! Really, Fluffy, weren’t you watching?

Anyway. Continuing…

  • Even though they sound the same, “Cups” and “Couples” have very little to do with each other. At least, to an extent. Sometimes you do have couples and cups with each other, and sometimes even couples’ cups. But they’re not necessarily linked.
  • There’s a fantastic song with cups, especially when it’s done in Irish.

So, yep.

I think this qualifies as a post about cups.

Have a lovely day!

Puppy in a Race

Hiya, Fluffsters!

I’m not sure if you’ve seen this yet, but there’s apparently a dog that somehow or another accidentally ran a half-marathon.

I’m still not sure how this happens. I mean, did the person walking her dog also run? Did the dog just run away, and the human not call the pup back?

There are just so many questions.

Anyway, have a lovely day!

Panda and SNOW! :D

Hiya, Fluffsters!

So, for those of you who aren’t aware, the East Coast of the US has apparently been going through a nearly record-breaking snowstorm thingy.

One of the perks of that, though, is that a panda in a zoo there got to frolic in the snow. And it’s really cute.

Have a lovely Monday!

“Be like Bill” Has Taken Over, Apparently

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, readers!

There is a phenomenon that has appeared on the internet relatively recently. It is the “Be like Bill” meme.

The originals actually were a little amusing, if a tad condescending. The first one I was aware of simply encouraged people to ignore content that offended them.

The most recent iteration, however, now allows Facebook Users to generate their own.

One of the changes is that it uses the name of the user. I am guessing it then examines Facebook content, and generates one of several based upon what you do not do that has stated to annoy some people. For example, a common one celebrates not playing Candy Crush.

I think it is interesting how viral this has gotten; people from all over the country are using this.

I hope you have a good Sunday.

Disney may be more amusing than they think.

Greetings, readers.

I recently found an unintentionally amusing article from the Disney blog. For some reason, presumably because they are Disney, the post is incredibly positive and cheerful about a new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. It is similarly excited for the delay of the next Star Wars movie.

I am amused that they think the move-date is positive.

Regardless, have a good weekend.
