I saw an episode where he decided to climb up onto some train tracks when he was lost and like headed into a tunnel. They “assumed” there were no trains and then it came last second and they were running and barely made it.
I think it’s obvious bullshit.
Wait I found the clip: youtu.be/5jjpRIMn1mM
Why would you ever waste energy doing this in a real situation and it’s obviously staged or edited heavily to me.

I’m a former vegan that tries to eat mostly veg. It was so much easier when I lived on my own but when you live with your Asian parents, as an adult, things are tougher :/

Veganism is a morally correct choice despite it not being perfect but many online vegans are insufferable
Most people here don’t know shit about China

I see Free Range, Free Run and Organic and I don’t know what’s best so I assume it’s Free Range …

Don’t get auction house shit off for millions …
For Pete’s sake, I go to Banksy exhibits and stuff. 150K for that amount of cultural engagement is peanuts.

There are more productive ways but I also feel as though there are better ways for you to reply to me …
If you feel it’s ragebait and maybe it is … then that’s fine. I just see it resonated with a female only community here.
I won’t disagree you on this … if that’s what you came for Lemmy for then this is very annoying.
- Comment on Few adult men are killed by adult women. 4 weeks ago:
The world would be better if we had better empathy for each other. I don’t think the poster thinks that men’s problems don’t exist. However so many men seemed to have interpreted it that way. I think the poster is just asking for empathy. There’s no need to be defensive about it if you’re a guy. All they’re asking for is awareness of their problem. We can do better than just dismissing their concerns outright.

- Comment on r/bald is whatever the male equivalent of a magical girl transformation is 5 weeks ago:
I especially don’t like it when they take other people’s photos and then imply shit like incest where they say the girl is defending the love for her brother. It’s obviously cyberbullying and spreading ain’t cool.

- Comment on EA VP Urges Companies To Think About In-Game Ads During Development: ‘That’s A Huge Opportunity’ 1 month ago:
I was making a bad joke about they’re expected in sports games but I just refuse to play EA sports games in general.
I dislike how they’re all small iterations every year and filled with microtransactions.
- Comment on EA VP Urges Companies To Think About In-Game Ads During Development: ‘That’s A Huge Opportunity’ 1 month ago:
Only one I can justify is the EA sports games. Mainly because I refuse to play those games.

I know this is a shitpost, but I’m assuming someone fabricated that message on top of a picture of two people. In which case, I don’t like sharing this as it’s basically cyberbullying.

You should see the interviews with some of these guys afterwards. They were saying how they hated how people saw them on the internet and assumed they were terrible people without knowing them. Yes, the racists were upset about being pre-judged.

I’m an 80s kid (so barely Gen X) but I did miss a lot of movies … didn’t have the ability to see whatever movie I wanted at my age. However, there’s been so many references to these “formative” movies I’ve noticed throughout the decades … so recently, I don’t know what’s wrong with me but instead of going through a lot of the soulness Netflix movies (yes, I know there are a LOT of gems too) … what I’ve decided to do is watch a lot of these classics and then I watch YouTube analysis/review videos of them. So even though I may not get to see people talk about the impact it had on them.
You just listed St Elmo’s Fire so I may have to add that to my list.

Okay, I don’t know if it sounds bad but I saw the Taking of Pelham 1-2-3 (2009) with John Travolta and Denzel Washington. I can’t say I enjoyed it but I didn’t dislike it either.
I actually didn’t know there was a 1970s version. It’s definitely on my list! Thanks!

Thanks for your insight. I watched Ghost In The Shell this year as a part of my blast of the past viewings. I felt if I watched it closer to when it came out I would have had my mind blown. Now, I’m still impressed with what they came out with but I definitely can’t appreciate it in the same way.
I’ve also noticed how some older movies can feel quite sexist or abusive towards women. However I still like watching them regardless. I still like seeing what the zeitgeist was at the time. I think Breakfast Club has a lot of pop culture references to it as well and I enjoy catching up on those (albeit decades late). There’s so many movies that pierce the cultural barrier lately (or it could be my lack of keeping up) so I enjoy seeing it. So I’ll keep what you said in mind! 🫡
- Comment on molly for better socials 2 months ago:
I’ve never seen the Breakfast Club. I went through some oldies recently like: Cape Fear, Chinatown, The Thing, Primal Fear, Airplane …
Anyone that’s seen it, can you tell me if it’s still worth catching up?
