Films watched: Body Care and Grooming (short) and The Painted Hills

The short Body Care and Grooming teaches college students of all ages the importance of conformity and obsessive grooming in their dating lives.

The Mystery Science Theater 3000 presentation of The Painted Hills has examples of the following tropes:

  • Death Is Cheap: "Well, Frank's dead again!"
  • Did Not Do the Research: Exaggerated Beyond the Impossible with Crow's essay on Rutherford B. Hayes: "Rutherford B. Hayes was born humbly, to his own son Rutherford B. Hayes Jr., in Delaware (while it was still Ohio), sometime after the French Revolution."

Gypsy: I think he's lying.
Crow: No I'm not!
