Sylvester Stallone is one of the finest men that Hollywood has to offer, and we are not just talking about his stellar acting skills. The man has always had a “broody and dangerous” look going for him that many would find attractive, even today. Clearly, age is not a construct when it comes to crushing on him. However, it did make Sylvester Stallone feel a little depressed once.

The actor plays the role of Dwight Manfredi, a Mafia boss who just served 25 years in prison. Quiet on brand, isn’t it?

Titled “Push Ups (Drop & Give Me 50),” the track first leaked online over the weekend. On Monday, Drake all but confirm it’s legitimacy by posting a meme video to Instagram featuring producer Metro Boomin superimposed into a scene from the movie Drumline, referencing a lyric from “Push Ups.”

Beware! Spoilers for the work of Stephen King abound.
Stephen King has always been a self-referential writer. In addition to his poignant memoir On Writing and a multitude of forwards and afterwards in his Uncle Steve voice, the Master of Horror tends to inject his fiction with characters that bear a striking resemblance to his own persona. Equating writing with therapy, he often seems to be working through issues that underlie his novels and one can often pick out themes and seasons of life peeking through the windows of his work.
Before hitting the bestseller list, King was a young husband and father struggling to make ends meet and the weight of supporting a family frequently appears in his early writing. The newest King adaptation to hit the big screen, Rob Savage’s The Boogeyman, reimagines a story from the author’s first collection Night Shift in which a surly...
