holy fuck what an intro

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up. I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

New Video: The Cooler Master CM690 MkII case was released in 2011 and aimed at gamers, with a focus on airflow and cable management. This limited edition Nvidia version also sports some rather fancy Nvidia branding. But what should I put in it? youtu.be/YRbNUmI2hRU
