    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    I'm not even a super fan. I've criticized the post Endgame MCU as much as anyone else. I just feel compelled to respond when people say dumb things, across nearly any subject. Its a weakness. if I'm being honest.

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    Absolutely, this has been telegraphed like 2 or 3 separate times. I'm starting to think comic book movies are too complicated for some. I guess setting up for the next movie does require paying attention and remembering things.

    Operation New Career

    I still can't tell if you're being serious. Sometimes there are inside jokes around here that I miss. I didn't realize you could submit resumes with just an anonymous forum name. My CV doesn't say Aldarion, fwiw

    Operation New Career

    I don't mean this as any kind of argument or mockery. In my field, "a good word" from a guy who knows me from an anonymous video game forum wouldnt count for any more than "a good word" from the homeless guy in the tent under the bridge. Is it really so different in the fields youre looking...

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

    Worth reading. I liked this for a couple reasons. 1. The analogy and the theory itself - while most "UAP videos" quite obviously don't show anything at all, a ball lightning like phenomenon would explain some of them well. Whether UAP has anything to do with ball lightning, its a good analogy...

    Yes, and if we did this society-wide it would fix a lot of problems with the modern world. Not all of them, but seriously most of them.

    Best Purchases You've Ever Made

    Peeling potatoes is one of those things like cutting an onion. Done right, its trivially easy, a non-chore. Done wrong, its retarded and you'll probably cut yourself and waste half the potato. Its one of those deceptively simple tests of kitchen IQ

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    If the spoilers are to be believed, the events in this movie are the direct consequence of the actions taken in endgame. But somehow endgame doesnt count as buildup for this movie. Its like if the shitty star wars prequels came out and people tried to argue that the originals didnt count as...

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    I acknowledged the quality problems with recent MCU installments. It doesnt change the point at all. The entire MCU franchise counts as buildup for this movie. Its directly playing off plot points from Endgame, ffs. Again, it may be shit (I plan to watch it - it doesnt sound bad at all to me...

    Avengers: Doomsday (2025)

    At least two or three people have said how this has "no buildup". With all due respect, thats just not the timeline we're in. In reality, its had the entire MCU Avenger franchise as buildup. Plus a few shitty movies (and one moderately OK movie) since then. I'm not defending M She U or...

    Out of town yesterday, we stopped for fast food. The bitch at the window had those fucking 2 inch long nails. While working in food service. I'm not joking about this. Society needs to stop allowing this. I know nobody wants to picture it but look. That bitch had to wipe her ass sometime in the...

    The Odyssey (2026)

    Whats the question here? Are you suggesting that the movie will come out, and the black helen and zippertits achilles will be totally resolved because the camera guy held the camera at some particular angle? Some actor made really great facial expressions? The sound mixing was just wow chefs...

    No, the original greek gyros are also stacked meat on a vertical spit. The ground meat version, and mixing it with beef, is a relatively recent American innovation that has now become nearly universal. But its still not traditional, its just the version you find basically everywhere now. Doner...

    Yeah the usual home instructions are either a sheet pan under the broiler, or sear them in a super hot pan with beef fat. I've been experimenting with homemade gyros since we processed our lambs. I havent found either of these methods really successful for replacing roasting on vertical spit...

    The Odyssey (2026)

    Not a single shot of the face that launched the thousand ships. What a funny bind theyre in. "If we don't raceswap we're not eligible for awards, but if we show the raceswap no one will watch the movie" So we get an all white trailer and a black Helen.

    Threadbans are flying around like UAPs at area 51 under the weirdly banhappy mods, probably a quarter of the forum is banned from one thread or another, but somehow Bubbles still hasnt been banned from the thots thread. I mean if there was ever a case to be made for a thread ban, thats the one.

    Interesting proof of concept, even if the game itself looks unplayably boring. Itll be cool to see what people do once they inject some actual creativity into it instead of just a shitty looking wow clone.

    Meanwhile FedEx would charge a company about half that. Even a nobody small business. Their model is they rape individual customers and charge the normal rates only to businesses. Its a uniquely fucked up business model. But why do you hate capitalism if you object, I'll be told.

    Whalefall (2026)

    Yeah this is awesome. Once the corpse rots a special worm takes root in its bones and lives there absorbing the nutrients. This species apparently only lives on whale falls, hopping around from one to the next. Think of that. Over many millions of years, enough whale carcasses have fallen to...

    Yeah, calling out the role of snacking in being a fattie is such a "blowhard" thing to do. You are amazingly fragile. I just didnt know you were a lardass too.

    Retard Dumping Ground

    This is so true. Especially the snacking part. Holy shit its hilarious how fat people snack. They talk about it and act as if it was some kind of virtuous thing. Like the way normal people talk about getting their chores done, or the way hydration fetishists talk about "getting enough water"...

    I thought it was bullshit too. Then I started reading statistics about it. Its fucking crazy what people accept as "normal" just cause it happened a few times in a row. "Oh, that must be normal for me!"

    LOL way to deliberately obfuscate the point. 1 days is absolutely normal. 3 days is a medical emergency. In what fucking world is 1 an interpretation of "a few"?

    Literally everyone who isnt taking a daily fiber supplement needs to start taking a daily fiber supplement. Regardless of weight or weight loss. Some large fraction of the population only takes a shit every few days and considers that normal rather than the medical emergency it actually is.

    I turn right on red when its allowed, I feel the need to say this up front to minimize a particular response. With that said: 1. You "may" turn right on red in some circumstances. You are not obligated to, and in fact, are not allowed to until you've confirmed its safe to turn. So a person who...

    Beth is toned down compared to Yellowstone. She's still annoying, but less so. I still find her character unbelievable, and the way people react to her.

    The English/Irish/whatever breakfasts are probably the funniest example of UK cuisine. Not because its the worst example.
