  1. 100% on Ben although I think we need to separate the two- 1. Performance of the actor 2. The part and how it affected the plot of the season 1. An absolutely amazing performance 2. Annoying character that you could tell was going to screw shit up the moment he showed up on screen and that the writers allowed him to make mistake after mistake when other characters were killed 5 seconds after looking at someone the wrong way.
  2. The middle hasn't gone anywhere and in fact is probably much bigger than it has ever been before. We just don't see or hear from "the middle" because they don't post 1M times a day on social media, aren't outraged by every fucking thing, and the biggest reason- they don't drive clicks, views, and ratings like the fringe on either side. Oh, and the "middle" are more worried about their family and dealing with everyday shit then they are about some Karen getting pissed she has to wear a mask at HEB, or someone that got their feelings hurt by someone that used the wrong fucking pronoun.
  3. Plus the free wifi for all their zoom meetings is a massive plus.
  4. It's rumored to have been renewed for a 4th season just not made official by Netflix yet.
  5. Yeah, he has good instincts just needs to work on his follow through. Either a character flaw or something that will evolve. Through two episodes he doesn't seem to have very good people skills.
  6. 100%. On all accounts. Also fuck Michigan State and their women's gymnastic coach as well. They didn't talk about it very much in the doc but the former coach at MSU also was told about abuse and did nothing. It killed me to hear them say Nassar was the only nice adult they had contact with because he would sneak them candy and wasn't an asshole. Just awful. I obviously place all the blame on the parents but holy hell talk about looking past a million red flags because you want your kid to be in the Olympics so bad.
  7. Wasn't there already a doc on this or was that just an episode of 20/20 or 48 hours or something? I swear I watched something that told the whole story with Patton Oswalt being interviewed on what his wife was doing during the investigation.
  8. I watched the first and about 5 minutes of the second episode last night. I like it so far, I loved Rhys in The Americans so that might help.
  9. This is the part that I don't understand. I fucking HATE wearing the mask and take it off as soon as I am outside, in my car, or not in a public area. I get it, it sucks but is a minor annoyance for a few minutes to run to the grocery store or wherever to try and limit the spread so I can enjoy normal life again quicker really that big of an ask for some people? I sure as hell would like to go to a football game, restaurant, bar, etc without having to wear a mask for the foreseeable future.
  10. The anger that has been brought on by social media in the last 10 years doesn't see sides just sheep. Lots and lots of sheep. Being positive is lame, it's sooooo much cooler to be an asshole and yell and scream about shit. Even when you have no idea what you are talking about or finish a rant with "I saw it on FB, twitter, Fox, CNN, etc." Mindless sheep.
  11. Just finished it last night. I agree, good not great but will watch a season 2 if they get one.
  12. How could you forget Dave, maybe the best line all time on Top Chef to Tiff- "I'm not your bitch, bitch!" Speaking of my sons love the show Chopped, an episode this season Tiffany is a judge and Dave was a contestant. It was funny as hell and both talked about it being a long time ago, no hard feelings, they have both grown up, etc. then Tiffany trashed his dish and he was eliminated 1st. Dave of course wasn't very happy. It was fucking hilarious.
  13. He was an asshole and Nina should have won. Fans were pissed. I just looked it up- He was in the bottom four weeks in a row before winning the semifinal and final Nina had 3 elimination wins and 7 top twos
  14. That sounds like a great story coming............
  15. I assume Melissa had the last pick............
  16. Happy for Melissa and Stephanie's dishes looked fucking awesome. As soon as they made a point to show Kevin spooning the parma on top of everyone's dish I knew he was fucked. Glad that Bryan made the finale but to be told by professional chefs your food has no soul might be the biggest insult a chef can give a fellow chef. He clearly is mad talented but do think he doesn't always have a point of view and is just doing things to do things.
  17. Seems like just as awesome in his everyday life that he is on the show.
  18. I agree with Riloh. A lot depends on the situation you are walking into. What's the pipeline look like, is it limited by anything? If you can take your contact list of CFO's/upper level managers and just start selling widgets to them you should be fine but if you are going to have to work through all the gatekeepers to get to said CFO's than you are going to hate your life. Sales isn't so much about the product it's about the relationships. If you can sell to your network you should be fine but if you are counting on your experience being a CFO to get you in a lot of doors where you have no contact, I don't think it's going to help all that much. As far as failing or crushing it? That is a question nobody can really answer but yourself as you are the one that will be putting in the work. If you are good with people, willing to work, and like getting slapped in the face then jump in the pool the water's warm (sometimes).
  19. Mrs. Hoffa- I am going to Costco do you need anything? Me- Yes, furnace filters Mrs.- What size? (bonus points for knowing they come in sizes) Me- 25x25x1 Mrs.- OK Back from Costco- Mrs. Hoffa- They didn't have 25x25x1 filters so I got 20x25x1 Me- Thanks, I will take those back the next time I go to get the size we actually need. Mrs.- Obligatory Tone.
  20. It's pretty sad that The NBA, NHL, and MLS are fucking closer to returning than baseball is. Tack this on to the long list of what killed baseball story whenever it is written.
