drawkcabi Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 She knew what was going on with the Catholic Church. She had a voice and damn if she wasnt going to use it! She tried to tell us, she tried to bring awareness of it, she tried to do something, and she was hated, ridiculed, made the butt of a million jokes, and lost the respect of too many people who should have known better. But most of us cared more about the symbolism of a piece of paper with a picture of a corrupt religious leader on it than we cared about our children being hurt in the worst ways imaginable. She didn't deserve it, humanity failed her. R.I.P. Sinead O'Connor DireWolfSpirit, Theda Baratheon and Lykos 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her singles discography on wiki would say otherwise. We are clearly using a different definition. Even then I did say 'relatively'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ran Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) My first introduction to Pee-wee was not Pee-wee's Playhouse, nor the Tim Burton directed films, but the the live theatre performance recorded as an HBO special in 1981. That iteration of Pee-wee was not entirely appropriate for a 5-6 year old (especially not by today's standards), but his consant trying to peek under girls' skirts went over my head, as did the various sly innuendos that you'd get, and mostly what I remember was just being enraptured by the quirky humor and characters (which would be perfected, and toned down, on Pee-wee's Playhouse). Especially Pee-wee, who was basically a deranged kid in an adult's body. RIP, Paul Reubens. (BTW, see if you recognize Captain Carl.)

I was a few years older (enough to get a few more of those jokes -Jambi getting hands, for instance) but had the same experience overall.

Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 He creeped me out as a kid. Never got the love for the Pee-wee role. But Reubens was solid in some other random things he did. I thought he was great in Blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pee Wee's Big Adventure was one of those movies I didn't really get when I saw it as a kid. Only as I grew older I saw more and more the genius it is. R.I.P.
