  1. E4 wasn’t bad. The writing was still atrocious but it was better than 1-3. I wonder if they filmed this series in episode and scene order which is uncommon. Sol’s delivery has steadily improved with each scene. I thought he was pretty wooden in E1 and his acting has just gotten better. The mop headed Jedi has not improved. I can’t believe he’s a working actor. I still don’t understand where $180M was spent. The episode’s production value looked closer to Land of the Lost than Star Wars.
  2. This trilogy is great. It’s too bad the US movie tanked and we never got the other two movies. I will say I was taken out of one of the originals when a character is driving a Chevy Suburban in Sweden. Even if those are sold over there, it seemed like a weird choice.

    Snatching draws from the jaws of victory. This team really has no desire to win.
  4. Most larger acts use backing tracks to make the vocals sound fuller live.
  5. Bottom 3: Steely Dan Jethro Tull Bruce Springsteen
  6. Has MAGA ever addressed the fact that Nick is Mexican? It's like a real life version of that Dave Chapelle skit where he's blind and thinks he's white so he's in the KKK.
  7. Shit. Now Andor is an 11 instead of a 10 in my book.
  8. I had no idea either. I was shocked he was playing Moody and more shocked when resell tickets started at $400.

    One of my kid's teachers is turning 50 and for his birthday, his classes pitched in and bought him 1 album from each year of his life. The selection was pretty solid ranging from Dylan to Pantera and everything in between.
  10. My 70 year old dad runs 2 miles a day, goes to the gym, eats mostly salad and is diabetic. You can't out-exercise bad genetics.
  11. Sally has two 8-round *magazines /surly gun nuts

  13. Fruit and smoothies are out. 12 oz of OJ has 28g of sugar vs 39g for Coke. Not much difference.
  14. I don’t know how you can look that poor with that much talent on the field.
  15. BYD plans to open a Mexican factory but “has no plans to enter US market.” Riiiigggghhht… A Mexico built BYD avoids the tariffs on Chinese EVs. Tesla is turbo fucked and I’m here for it. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/chinese-evs-are-driving-into-mexico--and-its-starting-to-worry-the-us-210133299.html
  16. What's the Cybertruck's warranty? 36 hours/50,000 feet?
  17. My office has 180 cubes for 550 employees. Depending on your role, you go in 0-2 days per week. There are like 20 people that go in 5 days a week by choice. As a consulting firm, I think our bean counters like the extra profit margin less office space creates.
  18. His Special Forces unit:
  19. Yep. When I was a teen, I counted down the days of no more church. I remember specifically telling my mom I only had two more weeks to go and then never again. With the exception of weddings and funerals, I haven't set foot in a church since the summer of '90.
  20. I'm good friends with one of the original pancake guys. He also used to work at Alamo corporate and was one of the event planners. There was an entire team tasked with coming up with event ideas and implementing them. They were all laid off during COVID and none were hired back after the new CEO took over during COVID. That was when things really changed. There wasn't anyone left at the company to make Alamo the Alamo.
  21. The twins' acting ability made you long for the thespian gifts of Jake Lloyd.
  22. I've been to that theater and it is great. I was in Fort Collins last week and saw Furiosa, for a second time, at The Lyric. Now that is cool venue. It's like Meow Wolf, Alamo, Mohawk, a food truck, and a dive bar had an orgy baby. It was probably the worst and one of the best theaters I've ever seen a movie in. On the floor were old couches and coffee tables and above were traditional seats. Grabbed a nice IPA before the show. When we got out of the movie, they were hosting Bike Prom which appeared to be an excuse to ride your bike there, smoke as much weed in public as you can and get drunk AF. It was quite a fun scene. They also had an outdoor screen and showed The Big Lebowski a few days later. All three movie screens had stages in front of them since they're a live music venue also.
  23. I read that it's trending for car/home insurance to go up the same amount next year. I'd find the article but I almost stroked out reading it. For my auto policy, I added a teen driver and a 3rd car at the end of '22 and it went from $2,400/year to $4,200. When my annual renewal came up in March, it went up to $6,600. No claims and that was the best the broker could find.
