The Lobster - 7/10 Solid weird/dark social commentary on our culture's obsession with being in a relationship. At least that's what I got out of it. The Turbo Kid - Not sure how to rate it. It's an intentional late 80s/early 90s sci-fi/dystopia B-movie clone. If you're in the mood for that, it's...

There's a pretty cool park I like to walk in the evenings after work sometimes. Just put on my headphones and walk blissfully while listening to music. The park is now infested with Pokemon Go players. I don't care that the game brings them to the park to collect their precioussessss, but it's...

I really liked that set of reward challenges, too. Hard to say whether Tai timed his betrayal right or not, but it was enjoyable either way. He's going to really have to go into 'slippery eel mode' now though, such a big target with his likability and having an immunity idol and a...

I assume Tai handed them their idol back. I'm speaking more to the idea that Tai has a crisis of conscience and is turned to the other team.

Watching Jason and Scott act like clever funny guys is pretty much worth the price of admission. Funny in a cringe worthy kind of way. They really cannot hide their petty contempt at having been thwarted at the previous TC and it makes for good TV that will turn into great TV if they end up with...

Well, that's one way to go down in Survivor history; under the heading of 'Biggest Monumental Fuckups'. I wonder if Debbie's giant ego will allow it to sink in that her own team slit their own throats just because of what a yappy idiot she is. All aboard the Tai train, CHOO CHOO!!! He's...

One beauty member spent their time busting ass around camp and working his tail off, trying to prove his worth and the other beauty member spent her time running around acting all scheme-y, conniving and shit talking the one who was busting his ass. I was satisfied with the result of that. I...

Holy crap, looked like Caleb damn near croaked. Gotta feel bad for the guy having to exit like that. Poor Tai lost his spoon-buddy! That did look pretty fucking miserable digging around in the sun like that for an hour or so, the sand cooking them quite literally. So, looks like a 'drop your...

Blasphemy! I like Debbie's entertainment value just fine so far, but if she wants to be anywhere near as hilarious as 'The Specialist', she'll have to crank it up to 11. she's at best at 5 for the moment.

I was thinking 72 year old ex-CIA muscle guy was the odd one for Brains tribe.

While I agree that Alecia seems annoying at times, I also feel bad for her. Survivor obviously did some weird thing this season where they put a fish out of water on each tribe that doesn't quite fit the stereotype of the tribe and she just does not jive well in that mix. They seemed to have it...

Was good to see Brawns catch a break finally. Beauty is really buzz sawing through those challenges. It's going to be fun watching Peter try and scramble for social footing after being so smug and openly confident that he was dictating things. It never ceases to amaze me when the person going...

Jenni at tribal council, wow. That was so bizarre to see someone self destruct that hard out of nowhere and for no real reason. Brawn tribe is fucked proper.

I'm not so down on nasa chick. A little cunty? Perhaps, but that's why we watch a nerd-based reality show - to see weirdo non-people persons being forced to work with random people who are weird/autistic/not good at social situations. As far as the men go, this may be the biggest pack of betas...

Getting called in to work tonight and forced to make some extra cash as opposed to dicking around on WoW with garrison missions. And for that brave anonymous cyber-warrior who neg'd me for being a "disc golf faggot": I finished 4 under today, and that was in the wind too, so that was really...

It's been raining here some, so when I went to play disc golf this morning the ground was slightly muddy in spots. I forgot to bring a towel and had to wipe my discs on my T-shirt occasionally to get a good drive grip. Such an inconvenience.

I like how she pretends to find those oreos and M&Ms disgusting. You know damn well she slammed that shit down as soon as she turned off her camera.

Same

Pretty much that exactly. Solid war flick with some good acting, great scenes and tons of clich?.

Drajakur, pretty sure you meant "The problem with going to the movies solo FOR ME blah blah etc etc" and "In MY PERSONAL OPINION, movies are a clear and common social activity etc etc". At least I hope that's what you meant.

I enjoy going to the movies solo more than I enjoy with friends. One factor may be that I don't really watch the more "social with friends" (comedies, blockbuster action etc) type of movies in theaters. I usually only shell out theater-cash to see movies that I have a special interest in, in...

Yes, because in a survival situation, you certainly don't want possibly the most nutrition-dense food on the face of the earth. How pretentious!

I'm watching it. It's okay.

Haha, I actually can't wait for this. Nathan Jones as "Rictus Erectus" is win.

Just saw this. Really enjoyed it. it doesn't dethrone Children of Men as my fav dystopian film, but it is very good.

I'm all in on this. I have to wonder if the success of the World of Tanks game had any influence on this getting made.

Damn. He was a likable person.

Unless it is your job to be professionally outraged, culture is a shit-concept.

I just now read this thread, can't wait to get these books and support a fellow forum poster. will grab them as soon as I get home from work.

I think what made it not great for me was that the whole 18th century pirate/British Navy theme felt like only window dressing and at its core it just wants to be like so many contemporary shows you see set in modern times where you have some super smart/capable/everyman action-spy guy go in...

It was okay, nothing special but not horrible. I'll be surprised if it makes it to season 2.

Where's that blonde girl (can't remember her name, sorry)from a few seasons ago who literally could not dive below the surface of the water because of her titties?

Man, I'm really looking forward to season 3, especially as described as a whole new series with a fresh setting.

Holy shit.

By the way, Woo's move was only the 2nd dumbest ever in survivor history. That old lady who failed to take Johnny Fairplay with her to the end, by far was the worst decision ever.

I cheered when Woo sent Kass home. It was the best of two worlds; I knew Tony would win, and I didn't have to listen to Kass bray at the jury for 5 minutes about how goddamn superior she is, and what a terrific role model for women would be. I hope I never see that smug face again. I like...

Over the last 10 years I have learned to mellow out quite a bit from how I was in my gaming days and have gained better footing against depression and anxiety, and become more motivated and less of a procrastinator with the help of occasional nootropic stacking cycles.

Tanoomba, would you recommend non-whites check their double standard privileges? Also, pizza crust should always be super thin and slightly crisp, fuckers.

You failed to mention under "Tony makes moves" that those moves were influenced by Spencer's social game where Spencer got in Tony's head a little and planted paranoia seeds which was an excellent read on how to create desired causal affectation with Tony. I think Spencer worked to make much of...

Amazing episode right there. Spencer continues to hang in there but might need just a little more of that magic next week. He keeps impressing me with his composure. He scrambles as one in his position should, but never seems frantic or super desperate. Kass really believes she can beat Tony at...
