She was all cute and adorable, but just a little weird likeWhich is good, because we all know what I'm like...So we made an excellent pair and had a series of hilarious experiences and adventures. No documentation of these exist, so you'll have to imagine them with the help of these gifs...srsly. We were a great pair, like you wouldn't believe.And we discovered we were TV soul mates, which was good because it meant that we didn't have any of those ever-awkward moments ofAll in all, we were awesome.

I have no other excuse for the capitalisation other than I thought it was cool. I realise now that it wasn’t.

Film Legends: Stanley KubrickStanley Kubrick (July 26, 1928 – March 7, 1999) is one of the most influental directors of the last century. If there is one thing most obvious that his works have in common, it is a strong inclination to the unsettling, sometimes disturbing and most likely controversial."2001: A Space Odyssey" via imdb.comFrom ancient history over horror to science-fiction and erotica, there seems to be no topic he did not create a master piece in. He always avoided to repeat himself, yet you just know when you watch a movie of his."Full Metal Jacket"He was a perfectionist who often drove his actors to the extreme.

Traditional Tuesdays #50Holy shit! It made it! This is the 50th week of this little article, and I can honestly say that I didn't think it would last this long. The night I started this feature, I was bored and just browsing around the Traditional Gallery. I was finding all kinds great artwork, that for one reason or another I couldn't/wouldn't give a DD. It could be because they had a DD recently, but mainly it was for a link to go back and see what they created next, and if they took it to the next level.

Anyway, on with the show!**WARNING:Viewing these works of art may cause giddiness, elevated heart rates, and happines

Impressionism: Win 100 points!As part of deviantART's Art History Project, ^KasumiCR and myself have prepared news articles regarding Impressionism, What is Impressionism?
