  • I did not care for the Godfather

  • Plain and pepperoni are two different things!

    In a similar vein, I'm a sausage pie guy. Give me some ground sausage on pizza and I'll eat that for life. Anytime I get together with people, there's always the "what toppings" discussion, and people bring their fucking bullshit to the table, and I say get sausage, and people go mehhh mehhh mehhh, and you know what? Everyone eats the goddamn sausage, and were left with olives and mushrooms, and peppers and onions, and fucking Hawaiian.

    So I appreciate it. The classics are classics for a reason.

  • I've always talked about The Rolling Stones like this. I respect what they did, but I was born when rock had really gone beyond it. The Beatles too for the most part. Even a lot of '80s punk. I wanted faster, heavier, more technical. All the old stuff just felt basic to me, but I know it's a matter of perspective.

  • I used to throw westerns on if I'd had one too many drinks and going to bed was not recommended. I was trying to turn off my mind, but also not get into watching something, and a boring ass old spaghetti westerns was it. Lots of silences, strange noises to keep me from really falling asleep, it was perfect.

    Ended up really getting into the genre because of it. Fistful of Dollars trilogy is fantastic. Once Upon a Time in the West is amazing. The Shooting is a lesser known acid western starring a young Jack Nicholson that was just weird.

    I think a reason I like them now is a lot of them are really well directed with these sprawling desert shots juxtaposed with in-your-face views of the characters. The movies don't tell you what's going on, you just watch.

  • Microsoft Office has been renamed to “Microsoft 365 Copilot app”

  • What is it, $100 a year for office? Been a long time, don't even think about it anymore.

  • We're all dumb, I guess.

  • I was hoping your last sentence was a replacement for Excel. I use Excel to maintain the books for my business. I've built a really nice book for keeping track. The thought of migrating it to something where certain functions may not work keeps me paying my subscription fees.

  • I feel that way about Linux.

  • His newest flick was excellent and it bombed, so there's some disconnect here. I think it suffered a Shawshankian fate though.

  • Venezuela’s interim leader defies Trump and calls Maduro the ‘only president’

    Jump

  • Right, I'm just hearing people clamoring for a free trip to the US.

  • Trump signals more Latin American invasions could be next after capturing Maduro

    Jump

  • I swear, the posts you're responding to are all bots and plants. There has been an effort for the past decade to continually divide the American populace.

  • I respect that. I'd die for my family, it's a no-brainer.

    Why would you go highlight yourself to a docuhebag though? What I would also do for my family is keep them safe.

  • 3rd day of 2026...

    Jump

  • Yeah, we are fed news to make us sad an angry all day. And we come here to comments to get more sad and more angry.

    The world is not as it seems here in the Lemmy comment section though, not even close. You can most definitely still be happy, and you should be.

  • Fine, I'll say it in public then, I guess.

  • Nah, they military will presumably be wearing jungle style cammies versus the desert ones worn in the middle east. Real shame.

  • Yep

    Jump

  • Absolutely right. I was living in a party house before I met my wife, and at that time I would've laughed at the idea I'd have kids. Fast forward three and a half years, and I'm married with a kid, and eventually two, and now they're not babies anymore, or toddlers, and so while they can absolutely still be a burden, it also comes with an enormous amount of upside.

    I've always firmly believed that without winter there is no summer, and so nothing is always the ideal situatiion you'd like it to be. And so yeah, winter comes and my wife and I get that household anxiety that there will be a stomach bug, but it is what it is. We cancel plans, we've missed thanksgiving and Christmas, but we've also had amazing times that wouldn't have been the same without them. The good and the bad, and the ugly, because I like spaghetti westerns even though my family thinks they're boring.

  • Yep

    Jump

  • I can buy this. I knew 100% I could raise a kid. I was fairly certainly I wanted children. We had my first kid, and I got more certain. Only as I had a second and they've grown older and I watch them develop and become people do I realize it was the right decision. I don't think you can know it's the right decision until it's done.

    And the inverse (maybe not inverse) is true too, with people who knew they wanted to have kids, only to discover they were wrong.

    Life's complicated for sure. That's it. I wanted to put a but, but there's no but. This is not a decision that has a clear right and wrong to it. It's a thing. There's 8 billion of us here, so it's not some special thing, even though it is.

  • Yep

    Jump

  • Yeah, I don't really like other people's kids that much. I don't really like anyone quite the way I like my own kids either. But I don't besmirch anyone not having kids, I respect the decision. I don't want people having kids they don't want. I also know that I wanted kids, but after having them, and as they've grown, I realize I didn't quite understand it. But hey, this is life.

  • Venezuela's government accuses US of attacking civilian, military installations in multiple states

  • Russia, Hamas, and Cuba are the only countries to condemn the action. Everyone will just ignore that though.

  • If you sprain your ankle, why wouldn't you be able to work? Obviously the dude in the video will get time off, but if you have a foot injury, why would desk duty not be okay?
