Nothing changes eh!

What sort of movie would Everett True be watching in 1916?
-
Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, and Douglas Fairbanks woulda been the big names at the time; D.W. Griffith's Intolerance came out about three weeks prior and was cleaning up pretty well at the 1916 equivalent of the box office
-
Great question! Wikipedia has the answer. Charlie Chaplin was in his prime. D.W. Griffith put out "Intolerance", which I've read about but never seen. Several Cecil B. DeMille movies. And, of course, Everett True had one of his shorts.

Based.

I heard him say “something doing“

@brbposting @Rolando Everett is one of those characters where I can hear his voice absolutely clearly

Isn't there one of these where True whacks a guy for doing the same thing? XD
-

this is before the moving picture

Funnily enough "gulp cafe" is name of the instance my Mastodon is hosted on, I wonder if they'll find that coincidence as moderately amusing as I have.
Could the instance be named as a Evereteer reference by a fan?
unlikely, as it has another reason for the name that is fairly fitting for the instance's niche (which is also why I just mentioned the name rather than directly link it, as it's theme is not something that most without a specific interest would want to randomly click a link to and see.)
