Obviously. I'm not sure how high that bar us currently though. I'm guessing an as-seen-on-TV sticker does it.

The name “the american dream” must be some sort of tragic metaphor or warning.

I quit caring precisely because he already did sign off on an ending. I have no desire to read a 1200 page novelization or alternate ending. I don’t know who would, outside of ultra-fans or folks with a lot of time and morbid curiosity.

...stories about lucrative, legacy intellectual properties, told by young-ish directors who know better than to get out of line and get fired midway through filming, where anyone can work so long as they’re projected to help secure a demo that would to contribute to a low-to-mid nine-figure gross...

Justice was *technically* served, but I don’t believe it will be *truly* served until his tombstone reads “punched to death, and had it coming”.

I made the mistake of playing through fallout 4 immediately before finally trying Skyrim, which rendered it completely joyless. A bit like eating at Pizza Hut then trying to eat a Lunchables cracker-pizza kit.

I dunno, given the benefit of a doubt in this era of hyper polarization, could just be that they don’t want to be forcibly dragged into culture wars and made into some sort of weird totem or litmus test, when all they really want to do is create live action remakes of childrens’ cartoons that featured subliminal

I mean, it’s also the way pricing for most of the things we buy operates; demand spikes, you pay more (see also, the price of *everything* in 2022). Were they selling insulin, rather than tickets to see a shiny vampire man dress up as a big rubber bat, maybe it’d be worth giving a shit.

What % of truckers is this exactly? .0001ish? Nurses, EMTs, The Troops, etc. — don’t care what sanctified profession we’re talking about — there’s undoubtedly a small subset of dipshits among them. Let's not pretend we're all saints.

Plush carpet, African wood, stainless steel, lighting -- why would anyone want to escape such a luxurious trunk?

If I had a nickel for every time I had to tell my wife to take off her rollerblades before getting behind the wheel...

I feel like $1M is kind of a bullshit prize for a 50 day, 100 person island competition. Didn’t we start giving those kinds of amounts away to anyone who could weather a few days of trivia on a Soundstage back in the 1990s?

Sounds exhausting.......LY HILARIOUS.

I get regular notifications from two of my favorite artists that are not in languages that I speak (portuguese and something..russian-looking). If they feed them through google-translate first, it would be a nice upgrade.

Also, having some familiarity with AV Club’s history, I’m not sure whether the snarky headline here is pot-calling-the-kettle, or a knowing nod to the likelihood new owners running a site into the ground.

As both a big supporter of the site and an artist who has made literally dozens of dollars through online music sales, I hope they can maintain the core vision, ie, giving artists control in an era where there’s so little need for middle-men in the industry.

At 176 minutes, definitely not for me. DC movies are so, so exhausting.

Is it though? I mean, what exactly do Truckers want the US to do beyond aid and sanctions that *wont* lead to wild blowback & escalation?

Man, I’d really love see detailed site statistics pre and post kinja. The place went from what felt like Grand Central Station to a residential bus stop in Queens. As far as managerial blunders go, yeesh.

Hard to believe you'd find a fabulist atop the crypto industry...
