Annnd, that’s why I don’t mess with those other countries. Stuff we take for granted here is not a big deal or not an issue, they go crazy over. People getting caned in Thailand over spitting on the ground, or getting detained in Dubai just cause they raised their voice and happened to be a woman. And being an…

...until you get rear ended in a low-speed collision in LA traffic and this gets totaled.

Not to mention, they probably didn’t even pay $19k to buy new ones, given that they most likely got a bulk deal or contract deal that if they bought so may, they got them cheaper.

I agree with you, but that said, someone paid $3.6 million just to have (checks article) the first for sale to the public rear engine Corvette?

Found one asshole even the aliens wouldn’t probe.

Oh, and these:

This 100%. As much background work as I have done, it would be great to be told “no, you don’t have to take a day off work”, or “lose weight to get into a costume you fit a few months before” etc., but be paid for your likeness and still be in currently filming projects and stuff.

This was exactly my thought-they’re gonna have to get a few digs in there!

I always wondered about that; I’ve done background stuff for over a decade, but thought that I needed to get a published speaking role before I could get SAG/AFTRA eligibility. Thought I would have one years ago when I did my first movie, but they ultimately edited that part out, so I wasn’t sure what the existing…

I’m sort of interested, but the tie-in to Instagram and the whole “kill your Instagram account if you decide not to pursue this any further” thing, reduced my interest greatly.

It’s funny; I’ve done background work for movies and TV for 12 years as a side hustle, and at one point, realized that I tend to watch those folks more than average, as I was/am one. This thought also made me realize how important we are to a film, because apart from films that have a very specific, small niche cast,…

That, and any Ferrari owner (and a lot of non-owners) will tell you a lot of the value is in the service records; neglecting to present those (or even have them to begin with), is a big red flag for me.

I get both when I buy them. I could buy 4 at a time, and they all look the same, and put them out to ripen at the same time, yet get 4 completely different outcomes. When they’re perfect, they’re great! When they’re not...you spend more time trying to remove the bad sections than anything.

Since he wanna compare himself to Rosa Parks...

That’s only available on Air France flights, apparently.

These were (technically) the ‘cheap’ Hermes bags; people have paid well over $200k for a limited edition Hermes before:

Members of union:

That is a very good, often overlooked point. If you live in an apartment building or condo which either doesn’t have charging capabilities, or has like 10 for a hundred unit building, it doesn’t do you any good if you never get to utilize it.

Let’s be honest: the only thing going for this was...well, this:
