  I don’t like most of the responses here so I’m offer my own. Love is not found it is built.

  My wife and I got married young. I’m 34 and I’ll be celebrating my 9th anniversary in under a week.

  Love is where all those things come together. We have the deepest friendship. We’re weird in the same ways and we’ve basically developed our own brand of humor. I can make my wife laugh literally with a look.

  Love is also a commitment to never, ever bail. It’s unlike anything else. With friends, you still try to be good company or you wouldn’t tell them the deep thoughts. But my wife and I can share anything. We’re so intertwined that there’s more understanding than judgment. We can say things we don’t like about people, about the world, about ourselves. We can be truly vulnerable.

  We didn’t find love, we built it. From 25 to 34 I’m a phenomenally different person, but we’re like two planets oscillating around each other. Our orbit influences the other, and vice versa. We never would have been these people if we weren’t together. With most friends I feel like they may have some influence… But in marriage it’s just undeniable.

  It’s a truly unique thing. But I will say I couldn’t understand it until I had it. And I still don’t. Dating for 4 years wasn’t the same as marriage after 1 which wasn’t the same as marriage after 5 and that’s not the same as it is now after almost 9 years. It’s always growing, always deepening, and it’s just insanely personal at a very deep level.

  Deadpool is to The Avengers as Austin Powers is to James Bond.

  I asked it who will win the super bowl later today and it said it didn’t know.

  That’s the same thing as what you were asking, from a timeline perspective.

  Technically… But there’s also a lot of waste from the 500 pack that people throw out half of. It likely evens out.

  Hell yeah. You’ll experience in a way that’s unique, so don’t let other people tell you what to feel. It’s ok to like stuff that everyone else doesn’t like, for no reason other than you want to like it.

  I heard “carved my name into his legacy” instead of “leather seats” in Before He Cheats.

  Liked the idea that the truck was this bozos legacy. Considering the line prior is “I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up four wheel drive” - I thought she keyed her name into the side and that sounded awesome.

  I would add potato to that list. People fucking love potatoes on lots of forms.

  Why is that moth a Kangaroo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Star Trek Movie by 'ANDOR' Director – Trek Central⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would share similar feelings.

  Andor is great because it’s largely disconnected. They don’t rely on any big major cameos, there’s hardly even Jedi or Force involved. It’s just a standalone story in the same universe. Honestly, the same things that made Rogue One great make Andor great.

  I don’t think you’ll be disappointed, unless you wanted more Skywalker Family Space Drama.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Star Trek Movie by 'ANDOR' Director – Trek Central⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Andor was the anti Star Wars series. It was the best written series of all time in Star Wars terms. The dialouge was not just good, it was fucking captivating. Almost every star wars film or show the script is usually mediocre at best and has to be overcome by the actors.

  Andor had multiple scenes that left me in awe of the great writing. Maybe it’s because my expectations were low… But damn it was good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm not asking to be rich.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I would love to see more intelligent conversation around this topic.

  There’s absolutely rock solid research that money contributes happiness to a point (I think it’s $75k household income per year, but that’s likely outdated now).

  Beyond that, it’s not a key differentiator. People take the second half and generalize it, which is incorrect.

  Change the narrative. Once people are paid a fair living wage, incremental happiness comes primarily from other places. But until that point, money absolutely brings happiness.

  The saddest part is that this would amount to the biggest change they’ve made to Madden in years
