Reminds me of the cover art for At The Throne of Judgment's last single, Goblin Kaiser: https://atthethroneofjudgment.bandcamp.com/track/goblin-kaiser

"Greetings, green brother!"

I've heard this as a reference to the bread that was given to the Israelites in the wilderness - manna. In Exodus, the Israelites are instructed to gather and prepare it each day. In the exegesis of that connection, I believe it is Jesus encouraging believers to trust in God for his provision daily.

GH as in "laugh"? People'd start flame wars over whether "FIF" is the intended pronunciation...

I'm sorry you had that experience. When I started really learning Blender (back in the 2.37ish days), there weren't video tutorials for everything. But the piece of advice that really helped from the resources that were available (shout-out to Blender 3D: Noob to Pro) was to read the manual in its entirety.

I'm not sure how practical that is nowadays, but the Blender 3D: Noob to Pro eBook still pushes a "Know before making" approach. I hang out on the Blenderartists Support forum and frequently point people to the relevant manual page for whatever feature they are stumped by or whichever limitation is explained on the Cycles vs. Eevee page, etc. I'm willing to offer you one-on-one help if you'd like, but I do my best to take a "teach a man to fish" approach that requires effort on the other end as well. DM me if you wanna chat, or post in the Blenderartists Support forum and I'll jump in there.

Hey, @Mandy. I know you gave the example of the knife tool and cut-through, and in another response, you said you were struggling with everything, but can you be more specific about what is wrong or outdated? I know that every new version may tweak the settings/visuals a little bit, but the manual text is usually up-to-date.

But remember, one third of Nirvana in their final incarnation was Dave Grohl. With his talent, image what might have been...

The Bart Bonte color puzzle games are fun and challenging. Orange is the newest, but I think I have all the others (Red, Green, Blue, Black, Pink, and Yellow): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.com.bartbonte.orange

Oh, I get what happened! You're mixing up Cemetery Man (Rupert Everett is the caretaker of a cemetery where folks come back from the dead and he has to re-kill them in an Italian art-horror existential dark comedy) with Dead Alive (The Lord of the Rings' own Peter Jackson's gross out horror comedy where folks die from the bite of the Sumatran Rat Monkey only to return as semi-sentient zombies culminating in some magnificently over-the-top gore/monster set pieces).

I think they are both great (different flavors of the same subject), and both very watchable.

If you enjoyed some of the goofy/gorier parts of Dead Alive, I'd recommend Fist of Jesus - a short film where Jesus' resurrection power goes awry and...zombies. It borrows heavily from Dead Alive, but the gags are still pretty solid. https://youtu.be/GuKV2Z3eYTY

Maybe I'm out of the loop, but Cemetery Man is a bad movie‽ Maybe I need to broaden my definition, but I think it's great for all the right reasons! Is it gratuitous and gory? Sure. But bad?
