(I even left you a cute little laugh reaction so you'd know.) It was just an off-hand comment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Tremors" is not something Beetlejuice, Dune, and Fear and Loathing have in common. The characteristics (like "sand worms") should each be labels on the circles. Each movie title should be where it fits. (So for example, Beetlejuice would be in the intersection between "sand worms" and "charisma". Tremors would still be in the center.) What should be in each of the big circles is a movie that fits just one category exactly. Like "Catch me if you Can" could go in the circle for charismatic main character. Edit: Catch me if you Can probably isn't a perfect fit for "overcharistmatic", but that's the closest example I could come up with before kids come back into my classroom momentarily.

Oh, I think it is and it's the main joke in that Venn diagram. For Beetlejuice and Dune, it refers to snake-like monsters that dig in the ground, similar to the monsters from the classic Kevin Bacon move of the same name. Dune, I assume you know what it refers to. Tremors and Beetlejuice: I think the guy in the middle may be related to Dune, but I've never seen the movie. However, for Fear and Loathing, Johnny Depp's character has body tremors throughout the movie as a symptom of the drugs and alcohol he's abusing and/or withdrawal from the drugs and alcohol. So it's sort of a pun. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk. Edited April 9 by PleaseBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm so confused. 😕 I don't want to keep filling the humor thread with unfunny stuff. What I *will* do is go hunting tonight for more Venn diagram memes to illustrate my point so we can be laughing at the same time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had exactly this reaction to seeing the image and I’m glad someone else took the time to write it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
