    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    The widespread existence of bland food - bland food as the default - this rustles my jimmies. This isnt just a matter of preference; "oops I wish I'd ordered the spicy version". No, what I'm saying is why the fuck is bland tasteless food the default, and if you want some flavor on it, you need...

    neat, can you point me to all the diversity in Black Panther and The Woman King? I mean, big tentpole shows and movies wont be made without diverse casts anymore

    Yeah, now they just need to make it a check box: "Never show me the fucking intro or credits on any shows or movies"

    She-Hulk

    Its a shame, if they'd actually gone into the fact that women can't keep their shit together 1/10th as well as the average guy, it would have been an interesting show. The power of the Hulk, but without his long history of having to control it. A sudden wake up call where the female main...

    Room Temperature IQ Cuisine DIscussion

    Eh, Tex Mex is great but its sort of its own thing. Its like American Chinese - entirely different from the original and usually better. California Mexican food is the peak of Mexican food. The real thing, prepared by Mexicans in a generally authentic Mexican style, just with better...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    This. I seriously don't know whats wrong with these people - either the ones making the youtube shit or the ones consuming it. For fucks sake, you could write down the content of the video in a single post. It wouldnt even be a long post, it'd be about as long as this one. Instead we get some...

    The Fast Food Thread

    People who willingly install apps on their personal devices to order fast food - you're going on the list too Look, folks, this list is getting so long its becoming kind of unwieldly. We're gonna have to kick this off soon cause I'm getting sick of carrying this thing around

    Imagine believing any of these statements are true. Kids, this is what happens when you eat beans for breakfast and call mashed potatoes and sausages a "dish". British cuisine, not even once

    DC Universe (Batman vs Superman thread).

    This "they/them" as a singular rustles my jimmies more than almost anything else about the LGBTQ bullshit movement. "Them" is fucking plural you assholes. The only case where I can see making an exception would be for dissociative identity disorder. Still crazy, but at least the pronoun...

    Unexpectedly is such a funny word. In grade school, kids would try to avoid embarrassment by claiming "I meant to do that!" For some reason when those same kids grow up they try avoid embarrassment by claiming the exact opposite. "I had no idea this was coming!" Which always raises the...

    House of the Dragon

    You can't leave WoT out of that list. Its the current benchmark for destroying an IP through wokeness. Sitting here right now, its hard to imagine anything will be worse than that. But Clownworld knows no limits; one of them will reach unknown new heights of Woke. My money's on LOTR but it...

    Oh neat, a reimagining of a classic story about a white male hero, but this time with a twist - she's female, black, and sassy I wonder if this will be any good

    The Sandman

    I mean, otherwise you're not gonna enjoy much over the next few years so I guess get used to it? Fuck that, I didnt even read the comics but I learned the blackwashing lesson long ago. Any production that ignores the source material for casting will also ignore the source material for other...

    I'm balls deep in inverse ETFs, don't get me wrong, theres no doubt in my mind we've got another leg down. But as far as I can see, almost every piece of extremely bad news this year has been followed by a flat or green day. I don't pretend to know why that is, unlike just about every market...

    Anyone still expecting surprising bad news to cause the market to tank hasnt paid a minute of attention in 2022. China could announce theyre launching nukes in 5 minutes at the start of the bell and we'd either see a flat day or rocket to ATH that same day. Equal probability of both outcomes...

    Youre a bad person. I went to that third world website. Literally not one burger is listed anywhere. They do show a bunch of CHICKEN SANDWICHES though. Is this a google translate problem or something, I assume?

    Of course, I guess I was unclear in my post. I understand that the different lots were bought at different prices. The question is how to turn that nonsense off for cost basis and profit calculations. Whether one prefers to track cost basis that way or not (I think it is absolutely nuts but...

    Question about trading interfaces. I'm on Fidelity but this may be a more general issue. TLDR: Why is the calculation of cost basis all fucked up when you buy shares over multiple days? Say I buy 100 shares at $100, then a week later buy another 100 shares at $50. My real cost basis is now...

    What Reddit Thread makes you mad?

    I dunno why no one is mentioning the 300 lb gorilla in the room Reddit is inherently fucked up because of the "sort by best" option. Yes you can sort your own view by new (like any sensible person) but you can't force everyone else to sort it that way. It is the entire root of the problem...
