brothasoul asked: if it's the year of his birth, maybe you should do a spam of some of his early works? rum diary, stuff like that.
senorgibberish asked: a gif of the end of the BBC HST special showing his idea for his ashes being shot in the air could do the trick.
Alright guys, I have a nerdy idea and I need help.
I’m at 1935 followers, a mere 2 followers away from 1937, the year of HST’s birth. When I hit 1937 followers, I wanna do something special, probably just a spam (trust, if I had something cool to give away, I would.) So what should I do/spam/whatever? All suggestions are welcome!

thestory-sofar asked: Did you get to see the rum diary while it was out? It was good of course but I guess I just had higher expectations for it
prideofcucamonga asked: First off this blog is my favorite. Secondly I recently saw the rum diary which is one of my all time favorites by the Good Doctor and I couldn't believe how disappointed I was. I would love to talk to you about it because you appriciate the writings and the man as much as I do and i have no one to vent about how bad that movie was. They strayed from the book so much ughhhH! sorry needed to...
slumberkill asked: Where the Buffalo Roam is a terrible movie. Murray's acting is spectacular, but simply not enough to redeem that catastrafuck of a film.
Anonymous asked: The Rum Diary and Where The Buffalo Roam both have an equal rating on IMDB. Which do you think is better?
