Underrated movie IMO.
- Comment on Today is June 1st, the start of Pride Month. This scene from "Blood Oath" weighs heavily on my mind. 1 day ago:
Truer words were never spoken.
- Comment on What TV series has the best intro song or sequence? What TV series have the worst intro song or sequence? 2 days ago:
I tried to remember it when I was typing that out but I couldn’t. Meanwhile, I have the old one as a ringtone! Loved both shows, though.

Community, original Magnum PI, Buck Roger’s, original Battlestar Galactica. All had great songs that just didn’t get old.
- Comment on Jenna Fischer Says the Later Seasons of ‘The Office’ Are ‘Really Good’ Despite ‘Belief’ that the Show Was ‘Treading Water’ After Steve Carell’s Exit: ‘There Were Still These Amazing Storylines’ 4 days ago:
I tend to agree. The show was definitely different, but it was still funny.
- Comment on Microsoft renames "Remote Desktop" to "Windows App". Good luck googling for any help or troubleshooting it. 1 week ago:
Yeah, I remember after an upgrade on my Mac last year I couldn’t find it after a reboot. Frustrating.

I wait til they’re talked about of @fter Midnight. It’s a natural filter, so I only see what’s really important.

Not exactly a high bar, and I’m about to give up on The Studio.
- Comment on Koalas can eat shit 3 weeks ago:
I’m going to be political for a second. To me, the copypasta is analogous to the conservative view of the world/hit issue du jour. The response, outlining how shit is way more complicated than an elementary school student’s understanding of things would represent the progressive view.

Haven’t been impressed with it so far.

I’m not sure I’m going to stick with this one. The second episode could’ve been clever, but so many of the characters, Rogan included, are just annoying. Honestly, it makes me even more sad The Franchise was cancelled.

Guys, they’re not going to be batting 1000…. On anything. They’re going to be breaking A. LOT. of eggs, whilst not even trying to bat anywhere near 1000. That will be them doing their “best.”
- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 2 months ago:
Right!? There was some weird stuff going on, and the way the show started was pretty solid. Did they even finish the first season?
- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 2 months ago:
Lots of really good ones here. I’ll add Flashforward.
- Comment on What are your top 10 series of all time? 2 months ago:
I don’t have a top ten, lots of my favorites have already been mentioned, so I’ll add a few new ones:
- Arrested Development
- Community
- Sports Night
- This Old House (been watching since I was a kid)
- Black Mirror
- Battlestar Galactica
There are probably some more, but I can’t remember at the moment.
- Comment on why do transphobes mention pedophiles/compare them to pedophiles when most trans people (as do most people) hate pedophiles? 3 months ago:
It’s actually a very simple ploy they’ve used since before I was born (I’m not young). Anything they can paint as sexual, or that actually is out of the sexual “norm,” they will use as a scapegoat. They used it against blacks (coming after their white women), gays, and now trans. Pedophilia and rape are the two Worst Things, and if they can tie the Bad Guy du jour, that equals fear-votes. The best kind of right wing votes in all the land.

I guess there can be at least one upside to sticking your dick in crazy. Or, I guess, letting crazy stick its dick in you.

Don’t bother. They won’t believe it until they are sent off to the camps. That’s how it works. The people calling it out are made to look like fanatics while the real fanatics solidify power.
- Comment on ugh i wish 5 months ago:
Those inspections are carried out by federal inspectors. The incoming administration wants to severely cut funding for pretty much “the government” (except the military). That means fewer inspectorsand less thorough inspections. That’s how things like the Boar’s Head thing, and listeria outbreaks in spinach happen. They’re happening more and more because of industrial farming processes coupled with more relaxed federal inspections.

You sure you don’t mean a 737-MAX? They don’t make the 747 anymore, AFAIK, or is that just the passenger model that ended?
- Comment on Am I the only one who does this? 6 months ago:
Exactly. If two people are making competing compelling arguments, they’ve both earned an upvote. Using Up/Down votes as a means to siding with someone is a good way to build an echo chamber.

I used to get them confused until a visit to Luray Cavern. The tour guide explained that one “held ‘tite’ to the ceiling while the other just ‘mite’ reach it.”
- Comment on Burning Up 8 months ago:
Just because they don’t ticket you for it, doesn’t mean it isn’t legally considered reckless. Cops often exercise a bit of discretion when deciding which ticket, if any, to write up. Some people just get out of tickets. I’ve never been that lucky, and I’ve never really driven particularly fast. A quick search suggests reckless is considered 15-over in CA, but I can’t find the specific statute.
To answer your question, I’ve lived all up and down the east coast and TX.
- Comment on Burning Up 8 months ago:
Some places are sticklers about the speed limit, and other minor offenses. If you’re local, you tend to know where they are, either from word-of-mouth or local news. Most places won’t ticket for going 5 mph over because a lot of judges will just throw the ticket out, especially if you come with a receipt saying you had your speedometer calibrated. In seemingly more and more places, 10 mph over is the norm. Some of that’s due to shrinking police forces. Pretty much everywhere, 20+ mph over is considered reckless driving.
