So... how exactly do you suggest a film for RiffTrax?

The forum doesn't seem to give you the option to create a new suggestion, and the social media sites it links to didn't give me hope. One of them was Google+

(The suggestion, btw, is Nicholas Nickleby, because my gods it deserves it. Great cast of actors, melodramatic and earnest yet camp and absurd, and massive silences perfectly placed for riffs. How is it unriffed?!)

Well that's never happened to me before

And it will never happen again....

Edit: didn't even last that long. Nearly time for the next puzzle and down to #45....

Slight issue with grinder distribution

Possible cautionary tale here for those with a hand grinder. I am using a nice green Timemore S3, today with some Costco light roasted beans, set I think to 4.7 for a 30g Clever Dripper 2-cup brew. Do you need to know all that? No. The more important part is that I was tired, and hoping the coffee would help with that.

After measuring everything out and starting the grind, I wander over from the kitchen to the balcony on the other side of our danchi flat (cheap Japanese apartments, but nice long central rooms). I'm watching my kid in the playground below and enjoying the coffee smell. Quite a strong coffee smell, as it happens.

I look down and see just a whole bloody bunch of coffee grounds on the floor.

I look inside and see a substantial trail, all through the flat.

I look at the grinder and realise I hadn't put the cup back on after inspecting the mechanism.

Well, at least it was Costco, so I've plenty in reserve. And nice beans that are, too.
