- Comment on Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 3 Is Officially in Production 1 week ago:
I read this headline as it’s the last season of the show simply because I read it out of order. Anyways, I’ve never even heard of this show, or noticed it on Netflix. Granted I got rid of it like 4 months ago or something, but still.

Circled right the fuck back around to Mediacom, dish network, Comcast, etc. except now we pay more for Internet and often get a worse picture. Great. Great.

Oh I like that idea a lot.
- Comment on Guillermo del Toro Teases ‘Incredibly Emotional’ ‘Frankenstein’ at Cannes: ‘I’m Not Doing a Horror Movie’ 1 week ago:
So write it from the monsters perspective? Isn’t that the point of the original? That people are the monsters?
- Comment on Guillermo del Toro Teases ‘Incredibly Emotional’ ‘Frankenstein’ at Cannes: ‘I’m Not Doing a Horror Movie’ 1 week ago:
Good, I think it’d be hard to sell that as real horror these days.
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 2 weeks ago:
We always used a black box thing, can’t remember what it was called, to load cypher to anything that was military equipment like radios and nav systems, and thumb drives for anything else.
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 2 weeks ago:
Yeah well… Can you set the time on a VCR?
- Comment on RIP obsolete tech 2 weeks ago:
Really? Cause in my time in the army I never once saw any kind of military information being saved to cd. Not once. Never. Even in the early 2000s that was just never a thing. Ever.

“if you push this button, someone you… Did you just push the button?” Me: *looking them in the eye while I slowly push it again. “At least let me tell you what it does, if you push the button, someone you don’t know will die…” Me: *pushes button again. “SOMEONE WILL DIE AND YOU GET A MILLION DOLLARS!” “7,999,999,997 more to go, then”
(What’s it up to now 8.2bill or so? I figure me and the people I know, plus about 200 million other people could get along well enough… Fuck, better knock another 180million or so off)
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has been announced, but the game has been delayed to 2026 | VGC 3 weeks ago:
I can’t see that being an issue with GTA. It’s far too big to fuck up like that, which is why there’s a delay.
- Comment on Grand Theft Auto 6 release date has been announced, but the game has been delayed to 2026 | VGC 3 weeks ago:
How can you say that when they haven’t made a game in a decade? Its like saying the beetles are culturally irrelevant. GTA continues to influence other games and is relevant to society even if they never made another game. I think fortnite is a dumb capitalist nothing game but I can’t deny it’s relevance.

In my experience, this just means “prepare for a savage attack from my back claws while I bite you”

- Comment on Monty Python and the Holy Grail at 50: a hilarious comic peak 4 weeks ago:
I can’t even watch it now. I’ve seen the movie countless times, haven’t watched the ending in probably 20 years. It’s just straight up better if you cut it off like the sopranos lol
- Comment on Monty Python and the Holy Grail at 50: a hilarious comic peak 4 weeks ago:
Till the ending anyways…
One of the best movies ever made, tainted by the single stupidest ending. Such a shame.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 4 weeks ago:
Exactly, that’s the fun part. Would it get worse, or swing the other way, having kids talk like uppity old money aristocrats?
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 4 weeks ago:
I would teach London children the most obnoxious brain rot slang from today as a laugh.

- Comment on I'm a 6'1" man with size 3 feet which means every they measure my feet at a shoe store, the Brannock device gatekeeps my gender 5 weeks ago:
I HATE that about having big feet, I’m on my feet all day and it doesn’t matter if I go up one or down, my feet are going to hurt, just in different ways.
- Comment on women are the devil 5 weeks ago:
I get that. I used to follow (not believe) conspiracy theories because it’s so fantastical that I read them as like, life fanfic.
But these people don’t share my type of interest in it. They’re more like Christians pushing their beliefs.
The reality is that we’re all just human. None better than the rest. But the thing is no individual or even group can say they 100% now how the full functions of the economic machine we’ve built even work. Let alone geopolitics or the myriad of other functions of the global society. We’re all on a ship with no captain or crew, and while we try to get the smartest people in the right positions to figure it out and get us moving the right direction, it doesn’t always work when we succeed and definitely not when we fail.

Well that’s out of the question. We don’t have nearly that much time left as a society capable of making such grandiose things happen.

I mean, this has been a trope in movies for so long that we all knew in the back of our heads that this day was coming.
- Comment on ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ Has the Most Words Per Minute of Any TV Show, Study Finds 1 month ago:
Suits would crush Brooklyn 99 if they didn’t have so many long, drawn out shots of dramatic looks.

Reading that headline gave me IBS.

Spelling? I’m not worried about spelling when it’s been acceptable to murder grammar in public for 20 years.
