Something I haven't really mentioned that has been going on over the past few days is my marathon of all the Jackass movies. So far I've done 1, 2, and 3, as well as Bad Grandpa. It's been long enough since I've seen them all that they felt new again.

I had shown a friend the stunt with the sea cucumber and that basically sent me into rewatching all of them. Theses movies are hilarious and gross and painful to see all at the same time. I don't know what it is, but watching those dudes do totally idiot things never stops being hilarious.

I think I'll wrap the marathon up with Dumb: The Story of Big Brother Magazine, which will be a totally new one for me. There's at least three more movies in the set I could watch (2.5, 3.5, and Bad Grandpa .5), but I think that I've had my fill and I'm ready to do some other stuff.

Did a bunch of coding at work today and tomorrow I'll get into redoing an app that we prototyped a while back and getting it to a production ready state. I suspect we'll get the storyboards for it all done and then move into beginning dev.

Until tomorrow!

I liked Bad Grandpa ok, but never really got into Jackass or those kinds of shows. Then again, we never had cable at the house growing up. 

Did you go to college for coding?

All I can remember from the old shows is them tasering each other. So dumb but so funny.

I was just reading an article today where the author listed some movies that are uncomfortable to watch in the theater. Jackass was on that list. Of all the scenes mentioned, the one he highlighted most was paper cut stunts, especially when Steve-O gets one on his tongue. The author of the article said it was just hard to watch and not feel the pain. I‘ve never seen any of the Jackass movies or shows, but I totally believe him.

Hey, did you ever see that Johnny Knoxville movie about the amusement park? Came out about a year ago. That one looked like it would be funny.

I was tempted to see Bad Grandpa when it came out, but didn't. I think I've only caught a few bits from the Jackass movies. Some of that stuff makes me really uncomfortable.
