  • This is the one flavor of ADHD meme that completely baffles me. On desktop, the second my tabs start getting squished down, I have to pare it back down. On my phone, I'm less diligent, but if I'm approaching double digits, I zero it all out. Feels like it's a holdover from growing up with crappy computers.

  • Seven of Nine channeling this Barbie

  • Only if the intro is really minimal and I don't know anything else about the band (sometimes, if I know they are capable of bangers, I'll let it slide in the name of atmosphere). Otherwise I try and give a new track until the first chorus before I move on.

  • Has he considered getting Sam Raimi to cast him as the lead in another feature? From what I understand of their working relationship, the cancer may go into remission simply to avoid Sam's abuse.

  • isn't a shower curtain a sort of thin veil, too?

    Whoa dude

  • One absolute fool, checking in. Thank you for the clarification.

  • I did a big write up about how this is a thought-terminating cliche, but it felt too much like preachy lecturing, so I'll try a different tack: why do you feel that subjectivity cannot be rationalized?

  • Feels like that could be a minor villain from Captain America's Silver Age rogues gallery.

  • Not OP but overexplaining jokes is my PaSsIoN.

    If you do a raw substitution of Roman numerals for Arabic numerals when writing FF15, you wind up with FFIV. Of course, because of the way Roman numerals work, FFIV ≠ FF15 (as that is properly written as FFXV). Instead, FFIV refers to Final Fantasy 4.

    The joke is that the only way you can make FF15 (or FFXV, if you prefer) good is to misunderstand the numbering and play a different game instead.

    Edit: aw beans someone beat me to it.

  • I get it, context and all, but it's very funny to me that you say you got bummed out by couple seconds of advertising for a cancer drug or treatment interrupting your video of bumbling hack frauds shouting about AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDS. Hell, Mike literally can't help but laugh at geriatric women describing their health problems.

  • All you anti-AI luddites can bite my shiny metal Cybertruck bumper. I am saving SO MUCH TIME by having my vehicle hit schoolchildren on my behalf, I can finally work on engineering the perfect prompt to generate images of the kids all black Antifa uniforms, so people can tell that they were asking for it by how they were dressed.. Modern problems, modern solutions! Now, if only I could get Grok to stop making the kids' outfits so sexy...

    (Cosmically massive amounts of sarcasm, which feels unnecessary to point out, but I've been wrong before)

  • Sympathies. That tightrope walk of dealing with someone who is misinformed but not malicious is tough. It's important to challenge them, but not so stridently as to teach them not to engage with you, as you don't want them to retreat further into that space. I wish I were more successful at it, but my mouth tends to outrun my brain. How did your colleague react to that reality check?

  • The desperate helplessness in that man's voice during that call never fails to make me laugh.

  • How did you season this?

  • He just seems like a guy I could have a beer with, y'know?

  • Multiple decades on this earth, decent schooling, undergraduate degree in history, and yet today is the day I discover why the cotton gin is called that. Wild. Thank you for sharing.

  • Does it smell like a steak and seat 35?

  • It's been several years since I read it, so I'm fuzzy on the exact characterizations, but the notion the author seems to lean into is that most bassists are (as you say) nerds who aren't interested in the spotlight, but they provide a fundamental bridge between melody and rhythm that enhances the other performers without necessarily standing out on its own. Meanwhile, the "drummer" character in this book is less Ringo Star and much more Jon Bonham or Neil Peart. He's got, if not an active desire, at least no aversion to the spotlight.

    Of course exceptions to every stereotype exist, and there's a very valid argument to be made that a rock drummer ought to be the archetypical support class, but the division of stereotypes made sense to me while reading.
