    YouTube's War on Ad Blockers

    Also, make sure not to get up and get a sandwich during the commercials on TV. You know damn well that is blatant theft and youre just rationalizing it.

    YouTube's War on Ad Blockers

    Wait, there are people who think you're somehow doing something wrong if you use ad blockers? Is this like back in the 90s when some people called sharing music ""stealing""? I didnt know anyone with that mindset was still around.

    they only spell it out literally in every episode that the TVA has magic dampeners shit talking aside, that last moment made the season. just hilarious.

    Will Smith n Oscar Town

    You're not understanding what I'm saying, so I'll try it a different way. The difference between having 350 million and 175 million is not even noticable. Either way, you're stupidly fucking rich, and will never have to think about costs again for the rest of your life. Zero difference. The...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    The word "whinging", with a G. I'm filled with an irresistable urge to commit serious violence. Just saying fucking "whining" like a normal person. Close runner up is "utilize" when you could have just said use, but this is more of a "you're trying to sound smart, isnt that just adorable"...

    Will Smith n Oscar Town

    Will Smith is worth 350 million according to my exhaustive 3 seconds of searching. I'm gonna go on record right here and say if you're worth 350 million and you put up with a bitch like this just to "keep half your assets" that makes you the biggest cuck of all. Bitch, lose half your assets and...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I don't disagree with you about the rising costs, of course, but portion size has never been the problem. If you're not full - almost uncomfortably full - after a standard sized combo meal at any fast food place, somethings wrong with this picture and its not the restaurant. Most standard...

    The Fall of the House of Usher

    It seemed pretty clear to me she was a demon not the devil. But I dunno, maybe after too many seasons of Supernatural I just assume things like that.

    The Fall of the House of Usher

    From episodes 1-7 or so, it was clear this was nowhere near the quality of previous work from this group. Hill House etc. were great; even Midnight Mass with its flaws was pretty great. This wasnt great, but it was watchable. It included lots of Poe references, and the politics was kept to a...

    Loki

    This is something that bugs me frequently in multiverse stuff -- the insistence by some fans that there must be an infinite number of universes. It breaks everything if you start to look at it too closely, and isnt necessary. Better to say theres a whole shit ton of different universes but not...

    One Piece

    Yeah. Anime is just so agressively cringe inducing. It could be the most wholesome and creative stories in the world and 30 seconds in I'd still be like "fuck this shit". Amazing that they've managed to make an adaptation thats this watchable.

    One Piece

    Most of the way through this now with my wife and wishing we'd watched with the kids, I think theyd get into it. I'm shocked at the lack of gayness and race bullshit. What is this, just some kind of fun little story without far left propaganda?

    The Marvels (2023)

    Every image I've seen of this is hilariously bad. Brie and Black Marvel always look so bored and a little ashamed. Muslim Marvel looks like shes a decked out gamer girl at cosplay who is just this moment starting to realize how cringe it all is. Can't imagine how hilarious their performances...

    Fair. I don't actually have a big bone to pick with the notion that these funny shaped rocks were shaped by people. Just with all the speculation that flows from that point.

    Ancient Civilizations

    Thats a very good example of the kind of absolute horse shit I'm talking about. Its literally a funny shaped rock. And from that, they spin some whole just-so story about the civilization that made it. I'm on board with ancient civ but shit like this should be laughed out of the field not...

    My house was built my retards. My kitchen vent is connected to the master bathroom vent. When you fry in the kitchen the bathroom smells like oil. Thankfully it doesnt go the other way too. Its just about the only reason I'll someday agree to remodel the kitchen.

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    yeah the more I thought about my comment the more I think that the reason restaurants get away with it is the industrial grade ventilation. The vent in my kitchen suuucks, and I've lived in enough different houses to think thats pretty common.

    Deep fryers are a mistake unless you're a restaurant. Either you waste a shit load of oil or you fry in nasty, old, weird tasting oil. Restaurants can get away with reusing oil cause they are frying constantly. They serve you fries made in yesterdays oil. When you try this trick at home you end...

    Agree completely. As I was sitting here typing out a response about how I can't understand that "retire to watch TV" mindset, it struck me that its really just the same thing we see play out on a smaller scale every weekend. Some sit around bored watching TV all weekend. For others the weekend...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    Right, exactly. What I'm saying is why is the new spin supposed to be more automatically plausible than the explanation people have believed for thousands of years? I mean the weight of evidence is equal for both explanations

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Ive got one in the opposite direction. It rustles my jimmies when we pick some great 80s or 90s movie to introduce to our kids, then we sit down and watch it, and its full of fucking foul language. I'm like I don't remember this! Apparently all that shit was edited out in the TV versions I saw...

    The Paranormal, UFO's, and Mysteries of the Unknown

    I mean, people have been claiming demon encounters for millenia without proof. Then people have been claiming alien encounters for a few decades without proof. Why are aliens supposed to be obviously more plausible? Isnt "Alien" just the modernist skin people put on these same experiences?

    Since the invention of TV, every time we've watched a politician talk we've been watching a man wearing makeup. Think about that. In normal everyday life if you ran into a dude wearing makeup you'd know he was a fucking crazy person and never listen to anything he says. The TV hides the...

    Somewhat? By somewhat do you mean more or less than that laughable 1.9% estimate from the article? I do agree that inflation has slowed down and I do agree that building materials are doing well - in some cases I've seen actual price decreases. I say 1.9% is bullshit though. By a large margin.
