  1. Christian Bale is still the best version.  There are enough Batman movies before and after him, and his are still the best overall.  I liked both his Bruce Wayne and Batman interpretations.

    Affleck is a great actor but the movies were shit.  His acting was not the reason why. He would have been a great casting choice in better bat films.

    Robert Pattinson has proven to be a good actor, but this moody, barely speaks interpretation of Batman/Bruce Wayne didn't do it for me.  

  2. Fucking imagine caring more about your hobby than the fact kids are routinely slaughtered by guns.  Nobody in power is even saying they want to take his hobby or guns away, just make it harder for guns to fall into the wrong hands in the future.  And somehow he feels threatened by that.

    Closing loopholes, stronger background checks, and longer waiting periods are a bridge too far because he considers it an attack on his hobby.  And let's be perfectly clear, he cares way more about that than the fact that nearly two dozen kids were gunned down two days ago.  I'm so sick of these radical, extremist gun nuts.

    These always crack me up.  Everyone over the age of 30 always thinks they were the last generation to play outside.  The people who post these memes must live in neighborhoods without any kids in them.

  4. Apologies if this has been discussed here, but what happens when grandma, who forgets her Facebook password every other day and needs her kids' help getting back in, loses or forgets her private keys and wallet info?  Is her money just lost out in the void forever?  As far as I know, unless you keep your money on an exchange, which many advise against, there's no "click here if you forgot all your shit" link that makes using crypto very user friendly.  I can see millions of people around the country flipping their shit when they can't access the wallet with their life savings in it. 

    I like crypto as an investment and a quick way to make money, but I can't see how it can work as a default mainstream currency if money can so easily be lost.

    I was expecting this and not a Jeep knock off.

    I'm not hating on it, you do you, but the original Ford Broncos were also Jeep knockoffs targeting the same demographic, FWIW.  What they came out with is entirely in line with the Bronco's heritage.

  6. I think some y'all wouldn't be happy unless they took the original Bronco design and just re-released it as-is.

    Maybe I'm just easily pleased that it actually looks capable of driving over a rock and they didn't go the Chevy route and turn it into a soccer mom crossover like the new Blazer namesake or like Jeep has with the Cherokee.

    Yeah and maybe make it not an ugly piece of shit while they're at it!

     

    I feel like you're implying the new Bronco is ugly, and if that's the case, I don't care much for your taste in Broncos.

    Not sure why they're so quiet.  The answer is "they don't really matter, because they aren't actually babies, and the mothers don't wish for them to develop into babies."

    Not sure how funny it is though or if this is the right thread for it.

  9. Finished it.  I probably didn't do myself any favors by waiting years in-between watching seasons 1 and 2 before starting up 3 and 4 just a month or two before this last half was dropped, but the show did not hold me or grab me in any way. I really am surprised I ended up finishing it.

    I don't want to say it's terrible because I probably forgot a ton of stuff from the earlier seasons but I just didn't give a shit about any of these characters.  Nobody was a sympathetic character. I kind of liked Ruth but didn't like the ending they gave her.

  10. Odd Killer Mike cameo.  Did that scene have any deeper meaning that I missed?  Or were the showrunners just RTJ fans who found out he also liked the show and were like, "Mike, we want to get you on the show.  No, we don't have any storylines in mind to add you to this late in the final season.  Don't worry, we'll shoehorn you into a random scene."

    "....Yes, of course you'll be playing yourself."

    No shit.

    Us GenXers are currently putting GenZ through college.

     

    Fair enough.  Fair enough.

    Although I'm pretty sure some of the younger teachers I had in the 1990's and 2000's were definitively Gen X, and y'all were all saying the same exact shit at the time.

    This is something that isn't apparent to a lot of people that frequent Twitter.  Hell, until a few days ago, I thought the same.  Twitter is WAY smaller than facebook and not a huge player in the grand scheme of social media.  Something like 3 in 10 Americans "use" Twitter, compared to 7 in 10 for Facebook.  Furthermore, 10% of Twitter users contribute like 90% of the content. 

     

    I, too, listen to Pod Save America.

    Secondly, it's astonishing the dropoff in quality of very hot 19 year old girls to 35 now. That blonde chik with ugly tats is outright hideous now. 

     

    Going wild takes a toll on the body.
