The entire thrust of the piece was that John Wick connects on an emotional, stylistic, effort-driven level that’s a fusion of inspiration and execution.

Ditto. Yes, yes, and yes.

Keanu thew himself at this role, even impressing the gun range staff used to seeing the most decorated three gun shooter in the world (and who owns the range) practice daily.

Yeah, the Tap led me to go all-in on Dots once I learned I could configure them with a) my living room audio setup, b) Spotify, and c) TP-Link smart bulbs which don’t require a hub. (Though now I’ve bought so many in each room, an initial outlay for a Phillips Hue hub would’ve been cheaper). Nonetheless, pretty dope…

No one apparently appreciates the Amazon Tap (based on sales figures), but I bought one as a way to dip my toes into the Alexa ecosystem and it convinced me to go all-in.

There’s that VW commercial that’s totally wrecking my fondness for “The Wonder Years’” theme.

Hey fellow Kinja-ers,

Hey fellow Kinja-ers,

I use almond milk in post-workout protein shakes. Not only does it avoid all the side effects of drinking milk (even if you’re not lactose intolerant, milk is just... heavy), almond milk is generally fortified with even more calcium than milk-milk.

Ah yes, 100g of sesame or chia seeds. A typical American breakfast.

Those pants are awesome; GTFO.

Among those who have actually served, stolen valor is one of the most abhorrent acts possible. Treason, of all things, might rank lower in terms of repugnance.

Seattleite-Angeleno transplant who uses Starbucks solely to use their clean, long-houred bathrooms. The ethos behind Ethos Water has greatly benefitted from our reciprocal bathroom access understanding. Buy some water, use the men’s rooms. An honest to God partnership.

So the funny thing about obtaining PTSD therapy is that when you have a (to invoke an insensitive, overly-simplistic, yet somehow communicative term) “broken brain,” you have... a broken brain.

Charlie Weis?

Gotta wonder what Jurgen’s thinking.

So it’s sort of easier to contact authorities on a freeway than a remote couloir.

Yeah, I’m also at a loss to understand others’ inability to grasp the psychological trauma here.

I know Kinja is typicallly a forum for jokesof varying degrees of wit, but just wanted to say kudos on this profile/obit, Patrick.

“Well I’ve just barely survived only to discover the love of my life dead. Obviously the clear thing to do here is follow logistical protocol because I’m a machine that lacks even the faintest notion of how grief works (let alone in the aftermath of a near-death experience).”

Unless you’ve also dealt with the immediate loss of your lover, coupled with the disorientation of just having survived an avalanche, maybe judgment is lazy and shows an appalling lack of empathy?
