- Comment on Is there a better sequel than Terminator 2? 12 hours ago:
I really wish they had made a 23 jump street. 22 jumpstreet wasn’t as big of a jump in awesomeness like T1 vs T2, but it was still an even funner movie than 21 and I’m sad they didn’t milk the franchise for one more film. Especially with all those baller ideas they had at the end of 22. Lol

Number 5 is ALIVE!

The wick soaks up the fuel so it lights up easy and stays lit, while also plugging up the hole so the fuel doesn’t spill out of the bottle until after it’s thrown and breaks.
- Comment on Gotta be quick 23 hours ago:
Sometimes. And then you have a puddle on the ground on fire. No sweet explosions or sounds or anything.
- Comment on Gotta be quick 1 day ago:
Fun fact: If you don’t throw it, not much happens, really.

BeeRa.
- Comment on Nintendo Responds to Leaks: "Not Official" 2 weeks ago:
The speculation is free buildup and helps create demand anticipation. Leaks and speculation like this are great advertising. It only becomes bad when the leaks and speculation created are better than what the actual product is, or a lot worse than the product is.
If the speculation was going around that it would be backwards compatible with all former Gameboy cartridges and include free downloads of any Nintendo games older than 5 years, Nintendo would quickly release the real specs/info.

Some are stunted enough to just be happy. Often times it’s the ones between 75 and 90 who are the worst. Some because they’re smart enough to know they’re not smart and it makes them angry. Some are dumb but think they aren’t.
- Comment on Venezuela fines TikTok $10M for fatal social media challenges that led to the death of 3 teenager, intoxication of 200 others 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t want to type out paragraphs worth talking to a brick wall.
It’s not the internet job to safeguard your kids. That’s the bottom line. All of this regulation and moderation is just stepping stones further to a controlled and moderated internet. Y’all just want to slowly add more and more limitations and training wheels to life and you’re giving up our own freedoms and rights to do it.
Tell me, who decides where the line is drown between allowable and not allowed? How are millions of hours of content supposed to be moderated by decency police to make that decision? How well do you think something automated can be that would do it?
The fine isn’t the point. Yeah, ten million is nothing to a large company. But what it really does is create censorship “for the children”.

By your logic, just blame the parents. They have the ultimate responsibility.
- Comment on Venezuela fines TikTok $10M for fatal social media challenges that led to the death of 3 teenager, intoxication of 200 others 3 weeks ago:
Right. And how are you supposed to train an algorithm to filter out any stupid thing a kid might try that’s dangerous? The possibilities are endless. Maybe the parents shouldn’t let their 13 year olds have unrestricted phones and access to tik tok.
- Comment on Venezuela fines TikTok $10M for fatal social media challenges that led to the death of 3 teenager, intoxication of 200 others 3 weeks ago:
I can’t hold them responsible for every dumb thing kids spread and try doing on their platform. You can’t expect everything to get regulated and removed in an instant. Watch your damned kids and don’t let them have tik tok to begin with. Then accept that a person dying isn’t always someone else’s fault. Your kid dying because he seen a thing on the internet to take a bunch of benadryl, then goes and steals your benadryl and overdoses on it, isn’t the internets fault.

I hare tik tok, but this is so dumb. Right down to the bullshit of requiring an office in Venezuela in a mere 8 days. Like 8 days is a realistic amount of time to set up and run an office in a foreign country.
Kids have been doing idiotic shit to themselves since the dawn of time. Tik tok or youtube didn’t cause this. Even back in the days before internet existed there was a “challenge” in my grade school where you touched your toes twenty times real fast and than had the big guy in class squeeze you in a bear hug from behind to make you pass out. Pretty sure that on killed some kids too.
- Comment on This is in a small convenience store where you can buy food things and heat them up while in the store 3 weeks ago:
Plus, this gas station is likely very close to a PO. Heating up piss to smugle in from 20 minutes away won’t likely work very well.
- Comment on Anon visits America 3 weeks ago:
Yeah. Europe is only 10% behind the US in being overweight. 60% compared to 70%. Not much room to talk shit.
- Comment on What Is The Most 80s Movie Ever? 4 weeks ago:
I skimmed his video, but don’t recall him giving any mention to weird science. I think it’s a solid contender. Very 80s.
But by the metrics he decided to whimsically select on what makes up the 80’s, it didn’t have enough montages or Russians or wealth/business stuff to get a high mark.
While I agree that Rocky 4 is extremely 80’s, I disagree with his 80"s metrics.

New cat is totally cool with OG cat. OG cat fucking hates the new cat.

As of about three weeks ago a stray cat figured out how to use our doggie door.
Now we have a 2nd cat.
- Comment on Superman | Official Teaser Trailer 5 weeks ago:
The cgi looked kinda low budget for a big $ film in 2025 and it looked like there’s going to be so many villains that the audience won’t know who to dislike the most, but who knows. It’ll probably be more action than story.
- Comment on We need a new Amazon 5 weeks ago:
Yeah. Lots of places may just use the Amazon warehouse side of the business. Especially if they offer products on Amazon.
- Comment on how do you separate your clothes and linens to avoid fabric degradation and bleeding? 1 month ago:
I keep and wash my whites separate in hot or warm water. Everything else goes together in cold water. Wool stuff gets air dried, while the rest gets the dryer.
Add a cup of white vinegar to the wash with the clothes if anything is extra smelly, during the wash cycle/beginning.
- Comment on As the Canada "tax holiday" starts, Walmart increased the price of an item by the amount I would have saved 1 month ago:
The price hike in Canada’s instance, wouldn’t violate US law.
They aren’t advertising a “sale”. You just aren’t paying taxes on what you buy, and it isn’t wal mart doing it, it’s the government. Wal mart is just choosing to screw over the buyers and the government all in one go.
- Comment on McConnell Defends Polio Vaccine, an Apparent Warning to RFK Jr. 1 month ago:
It’s because he’s old as fuck and has experienced seeing polio firsthand. Republicans are generally too stupid to believe in anything they haven’t experienced themselves.
- Comment on Taste the flavor 1 month ago:
Those cups look to each have about 20 ounces in them, so about 100 oz total.
However, I just went to double check and I’m getting conflicting results on the amount to ld50, now. It may be as low as 14 ounces for an adult.
- Comment on Taste the flavor 1 month ago:
Oddly enough, the ld50(how much to kill half the people who would drink it) is well over a gallon for gasoline.
Not that it wouldn’t cause problems, but he would be alive if he drank all of that.

Had to gave Vista in order for windows 7 to be good. Microsoft can’t have two in a row be good. XP good, ME bad, win 7 good, win 8 bad, win 10 good, win 11 bad.

I can’t fathom how those dyson piece of shit blade hand dryers were chosen at so many places instead of like a Columbia Vortex.
Those nasty ass dysons near guarantee you touch the inside of them, all while misting water back up towards your face.

She prolly into photosynthesis now.
- Comment on Tipping culture is out of control, even the cops expect tips now! 1 month ago:
Remember. Talking to the police can never help you. Don’t tell them you know him. Don’t tell them you don’t know him.
- Comment on Anon has the spirit 1 month ago:
Back when even cable TV was only like 30 channels and there was no internet, if something big went down that was cool, everyone tuned it or had to miss out. I remember a documentary special on the Discovery Channel (it used to only be about animals and the planet) that I think damn near every kid in my school watched, and it wasn’t even shark week.
