Welcome to The Misery.


After the correspondent shakeup, we're down to 80 folks with posting rights. We're always looking for funny, insightful, profane, engaging, and half-drunk writers who love to share their misery with the rest of us.

Just email Prof. Presto and ask for rights. He'll grill you, take the last four digits of your SSN, the middle 3 of a major credit card, and ask your birth sign, then he'll send you an invite - when he's good and goddamn ready to do so. You'll be able to post what you want, when you want, and then watch while we skirmish below in the comment section.

Of course if you have a Google account you can comment on any of the posts that are up, and most of the CM community get a big charge out of even that small slice of the miserable pie.

Welcome to Fall 2011, and, 
as they used to say, on the old site, 
back in the day,
please to enjoy.

  1. CM is a lovely place
    to while away office hours.

    If there's gin,
    it's even better.

  6. I think the worst part about calling out the L!es DAMN L!es was the RMS. I stare and stare and stare but it won't change to a Y.

    Boo (hiss)

  7. Now I'm just going to start quoting "Aliens":

    "Welcome to the Express Elevator to HELL!!"

    "They're comin' out of the walls, man!!"

    "GAME OVER, man, GAME OVER!!"

    All of the above: Bill Paxton as the dorky Virginian who looses his cool too much.

    I STILL think the minigun attack scene (cut out of the original print and run on TV instead of some of the gore) had to be the best in the film; the Xenomorphs keep coming and the guns fire automatically until they are out of ammunition....there is a simple purity to it, like the scene in "Alien" where Tom Skerrit has to track the Beast down in the vent ducts; every time he clears a juction, the door closes down to a pinhole until the Thing is right behind him....
