I think you could make a case for Bush Jr or Reagan as well for vastly different reasons in the modern era, but I won’t pretend to have your historical knowledge other than to say that Grant wasn’t as good at defeating the South after the war as he was during.

The Simpsons gave us multiple “beware of the obvious grifter” episodes that not nearly enough people paid attention to

Instead of being a bad father and watching the leafs game with my six year old, we watched The Terminator. He liked when Arnold popped his eye out.

The John Wick series is so effective because it fully embodies the three major tenets of dumb guy fantasy: 1. being able to kick anyone’s ass, 2. living by a code of honor, and 3. paying for things with gold coins

Honestly the main motivation for having another would be to police this one. Maybe the 200 hockey guys are onto something.

My younger kid has an emotional support hockey stick (carries it around with him everywhere, gets upset when he has to put it down etc.) but he’s small and keeps hitting me with it in the shins while walking around the house. This must be what living with Brad Marchand feels like

“Canada is a medium sized high school” moment. Went to buy my older kid a hockey helmet at Canadian Tire and the guy who helped me is cousins with a guy who just got drafted by the Minnesota Wild. Then I went to the LCBO and recognized a guy who used to work at the one near me.

being a rich tech guy in the 90s must have been so sick. every morning you start a web page that sells ring tones, sell it at lunch for 2 million dollars, get dinner at a “sushi” restaurant and go to a night club wearing a cologne called Apartheid Sapphire

Double post situation whatever bear with me I am trying to use this app more frequently. Anyway holy shit a fifth and sixth day of this malarkey. This is beginning to go beyond the bounds of normalcy, stretching credulity and is quickly entering the supernatural. Possibly even divine??? Also my kid.

donald trump insulting a tragically murdered beloved director, starting an aggressive and illegal war in venezuela for no reason, then the epstein files hopefully finally releasing this friday is a generational run of potential worst possible week for any president in awhile

He holds most of the cards here but id still like to see what he looks like with a coach and GM that encourages offensive freedom and healthy wrists. But generally you may be right and that’s worrisome.

People don’t discuss the Parenting Overton Window enough. First one gets the sniffles and you’re terrified they have consumption. Checking their temperature every 20 minutes, debating going to Emerg. Second kid falls and cuts open their lip? Shit, guess that one’s just a bleeder.

Yeah, you kinda learn everything you need to know when you need to know it. More generally, I wish more movies cared to do this instead of explaining everything

It’s a pretty good scene, kinda undercut by the dad character still somehow being the one chasing them. But you are right the action setpiece of it all is pretty good and it is tense.

You could also watch the film without having seen 28 Days Later. Which in and of itself is a good bit of filmmaking. You should - however - watch 28 Days Later and can skip the remaining hour 45 of Weeks after the opening scene.

The rest of the movie is pretty mid, but the opening scene of 28 Weeks Later is one of the absolute best openings in any horror movie ever. Explains everything you need to know about the world, provides stakes and consequences in about 5-6 minutes.

I think everyone should have kids but man hearing my boys argue in the basement is so damn tedious. I know the older one is overreacting but I also know the younger one is being a dickhead and now I gotta go play peacemaker cause they can’t just watch Octonauts in peace.

Yeah that’s pretty early in season 2 and also like 8 years ago. Be proud of who you were then.

Absolutely! I think the most salient criticism I’ve seen of it is that it started out as a show set in the 80s and then focused too much on being a pastiche of every 80s sci fi thing. And while we might be in the minority, I think season 3 (esp. Robin and Steve) is better than 4.

Finished rewatching Stranger Things ahead of the final season coming out. The show really rests on the laurels of the first season. Really agonizing rewatch past season two.

I love the fantasy elements of Pluribus, like an altruistic species or being able to have an entire grocery store to yourself.
