Club High Castle Has a Laugh

It’s time for another Seriously Geeky Sunday brought to you by the creative Heather at geeking-by.net!

We all need laughter, especially now. 

16th August – Funny Guys

It’s National Tell a Joke Day today which means we’re asking you to tell us all about what makes you laugh.

What makes you laugh?

I honestly don’t know. Laughter is one of those ‘in the moment’ things for me. Until it happens, I have no idea what will trigger a giant LOL. 

What TV show makes you laugh?
  • It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
  • Space Force
  • The Office
  • Parks and Rec
Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia
What is your favourite comedy movie?

I haven’t seen any comedy movies since Tropic Thunder, so I’m not sure. Nothing beats the comedies of the late 90s and early 2000s, so I’ll pick a few that gave me laughs over the years.

  • Super Troopers
  • Tropic Thunder
  • Dumb and Dumber
What scene always makes you crack up?

So…I’m quickly learning that I have not kept up with this genre ha ha! Can I say I don’t know again? Because I don’t know. I’ll have to go with a show, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia – that one NEVER fails to make me laugh. It’s one of the few comedy shows I’ve watched over and over again. 

Who is your favourite funny guy/girl?

Everyone on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia! I can’t pick just one because they are a team of hilarious shenanigans! 

Who is your favourite comedian?

Stand-up comedy is not my thing. I’m sorry! There’s been one stand-up comedian who made me laugh, and I shall tell the tale. 

Back in 2002, Robin Williams came to the base I was stationed at on a USO tour. He came a few days before his show and went around the base and local town to learn about our daily life and things relevant to us. 

He was an absolute riot during his show! He took time to incorporate all the things he saw, heard, and experienced into his routine. He was such a joy to watch, and I knew that he was a genuinely good person. 

May he rest in peace.

SGS: Creativity!

Looking at Heather’s wonderful prompts, I just realized that April is almost over. Is it really the last Sunday of the month already!? How did that happen? Even with quarantine it feels like it just zipped by!  This week’s Seriously Geeky Sundays theme hits close to home, and I am super excited about it. As you all know, I’m an artist who loves to draw, paint, write, and sew!  26th April – Creativity What does creativity in fandoms/geeky interests mean to you? EVERYTHING. Just look at Club High Castle!  High Castle is the one fandom where I’ve felt like I’ve been allowed to flourish. The countless hours and dedication I’ve put into the things I’ve created has been appreciated by both fans and the cast and crew. I have never experienced anything like it, and it has genuinely made me happy over the years.  I’ve been in other fandoms where art and things just slipped by unnoticed–not that I’m seeking attention, but knowing that there are people out there who enjoy my...

Cosplay Everyday!

It’s time for another Seriously Geeky Sunday brought to you by the creative Heather at geeking-by.net! It’s cosplay everyday here in Club High Castle Cosplay is very near and dear to my heart. You should see the left half of my closet! Hanging there is an assortment of medieval dresses, Star Trek uniforms, and other odes to my favorite fandoms that I’ve collected over the years. The oldest thing I have in there is probably from the 90s.  23rd August – Cosplay It’s international Cosplay Day this weekend and we’re joining in the celebrations by chatting about all things cosplay! Have you cosplayed before? If yes, which character was your favourite? If no, which character would you like to cosplay as? You have no idea, Grasshopper đŸ˜‰ You just opened an entire world about me. I was the QUEEN of cosplay in the early 2000s, and I loved every last second of it. As for my favorite character, that one is a tough one because every time I put on a costume, I’m having the time of my life, h...

Review: PKD’s Unfinished Sequel to TMITHC

I finally had a chance to read the two mysterious chapters of a scrubbed sequel to PKD’s The Man in the High Castle. I finished them a few days weeks ago, but their mark has yet to fade from the recesses of my mind. While I understand why he never finished it, I wish there was more.  The chapters were accompanied by an essay and a fictional blurb about Hawthorn Abendsen. Naziism and The High Castle (1964) is an eye opener into the mind of PKD. He asks pointed questions about human nature and discusses Nationalism— no one is immune from falling into it. The essay reminds me of a quote ages ago when Season 2 of High Castle had just aired: I think we have is to humanize Nazis. If you indulge the fantasy that they were not human, then nothing is learned. This is human beings that did this. It is only humans that are capable of inhumanity. Rufus Sewell on portraying his character, John Smith (2016).  Reading it (and the subsequent chapters) made certain aspects of the show much more clea...
