What is the Watercooler?
It's a haven in the middle of a harsh, 9-to-5 world. A place where you can gather with your fellow human beings and bond over a paper cup full of cool refreshment.
All sorts of randomness is welcome here. Post pictures, videos, special Chat information, or just discuss news and current events.

So here's a bunch of Disney princesses making Calving faces.
Edit: Thank you, Miss A, for allowing me to credit the proper people.
Thanks, guys. We sincerely appreciate it.
And yes I am aware of Rifftrax and how they already did Twilight. Shush.
What is Movie Sign?
Every Sunday night, we nestle down in Chat and watch an episode of the cult TV show Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K for short) while spamming up the Chat box. Don't worry - we use episodes available on streaming sites so that we can all watch simultaneously.
What's MST3K?
A comedy show that ran from 1988-1999, it's like watching a movie with running commentary. Joel Robinson or Mike Nelson, along with 'bots Tom Servo and Crow, are forced to watch terrible films as part of a mad scientist's bid for world domination. To keep their (and our) sanity, they talk back to the movies and riff on them. A more detailed explanation can be found up at the SoL.
...Rewind?
It means we've watched it before, but, due to popularity, we're watching them again! ...And yeah, that's all.
Next Episode
It's kinda like Alien, but in the 1950s and called Night of the Bloodbeast instead. An astronaut returns to Earth dead, and those who recover him soon face their worst nightmare as an alien menace goes on a rampage to protect it's embryos, implanted in the astronaut's body.
This is also the special Turkey Day edition of Episode 701, with Thanksgiving-related host segments.
Before the movie, we've got a short, in which a man trying to write a jingle gets some divine assistance, which leads to his wife singing about what she'd like her home to be like.
Host Segment Highlights
It's Thanksgiving time! Did you catch the game? And if you didn't, did you at least bring pie? A party is thrown down in Deep 13 while the rest of us have to watch a movie, but there's still time to argue whether one should eat stuffing or potatoes. With some quiet time, "Art" and Pearl have a chat before both depart to eat dinner and give thanks.
Whether a seasoned vet or new meat, we invite you all to come on down! Movie starts at 8pm EST/5pm PST, room opens at the :30 beforehand.
The password for the room is steve. Be ready to go and find the whole video here.
