7th Annual MST Club Holiday Video Marathon Social Distancing Edition

JHarris — Tue, 22 Dec 2020 16:48:58 -0800

It's time again for that weird thing we do, which is program 72 hours of specials, bad Christmas movies, MST3K episodes and other things. It's MST Club's 2020 Holiday Video Marathon! We usually put this in for intermittent yuletide jollies and destress, to help people relax at an often frustrating time of year. This year, with so many people sensibly staying home for the holidays, it promises both to be less and more stressful than usual. Anyone can come by and watch weird stuff with us, members or not! Our show runs from December 23 through to midnight December 25. Details inside! Previous years: 2019 - 2018 - 2017 - 2016 - 2015 - 2014 We have a chat room attached so people can joke along with the show, but it's fine to lurk or have us on in the background! We do this by the seats of our collective pants, but we have a vague sort of theme schedule. We are open to reading the crowd to see what people would like though. Our plans (times are Eastern) are: DEC 23: Morning: specials, riffing Afternoon: Rankin-Bass Evening-Night: MST3K and other riffing, miscellaneous DEC 24: Morning: more specials Early afternoon: Christmas episodes of old TV shows -- Jack Benny, Burns & Allen Evening-Night: MST3K and other riffing, our favorite specials DEC 25: Morning: Quiet time -- Yule logs, specials Afternoon: Our standards -- classic riffing Evening-Night: Winding down, non-holiday fare Our moderator list this year is TheSnakeOfArgument, valkane, StarkRoads, Satri and TV's Ilana. oneswellfoop might be helping too but has been having computer issues lately. Some of our items are from the Rifftrax catalog. While we have a terrific hodge-podge of material from them, we try to make sure that everything we have is bought and paid for. Please give them your support!

PONY : Add a preference setting that forces MeFi to always load in desktop mode on mobile devices? I usually view MeFi on my tablet. Maybe there's some magic setting but since I got a new tablet Chrome always opens the site in mobile mode even though I've checked the "Request Desktop Site" setting every single time I've visited. Would it be possible to bypass this insanity and add a pref to have the site only use the desktop site?

Somebody wiped a handful of crazy on this thread.

full moon and MeFi craziness

Does anyone else feel that there may be a correlation between Metafilter craziness / testiness and the full moon (not to mention the eclipse)? Do any budding statisticians feel like analysing Metatalk posting frequency against lunar phase? Is Miguel a werewolf?
