Pizza places might not want to pay for extra delivery drivers as employees, so it would be cheaper for them to use a third party. Not only that, but if that particular store is really busy, making a little less on each pizza by using a third-party but being able to physically deliver more due to using a third-party…

If universities are going to start firing every awkward teacher/professor/lecturer/TA who fires off emails and has awkward interactions with students, a lot of these universities are gonna have to cut available classes and reduce the amount of admitted students.

It’s already hard enough finding good talent to get into…

This is so mind-numbingly stupid it’s not at all surprising it occurred at a institute of higher learning.

It’s clear that the teacher/lecturer/professor overcorrected with the e-mail. But in certain cases, you find yourself in a Catch-22, and I truly believe this guy felt he was in one.

There’s also the salient fact…

Some of the high price for NES and SNES were outright due to the costs of producing cartridges on a mass scale, as well as many games never seeing the light of day in certain regions, but still needing to actually make money. Best selling games at a high price effectively subsidized a lot of the physical production of…

You’re right in terms of how it’s written, I just think in turns Greg into a complete idiot if he doesn’t realize how easily $250m could translate into significantly more status than merely being a corporate executive.

He’s already a part of the family. That curries status, even if his relation is rather tangential…

The problem is that if his sole goal is wealth and freedom, why didn’t he accept Ewan’s proposal from season 1 to give him $250m outright to leave Waystar? That’s more money than he’ll ever make running Waystar-Buffalo, he’ll no longer have to deal with Tom, Logan, or the kids and their bullshit, and he’ll have…

That’s the one thing about the finale that has me confused: altering the divorce agreement.

Once the court order is in, it’s incredibly difficult to alter the terms of a divorce agreement, especially when it comes to the division of property and assets (of which shares in Waystar-Royco would be a part of). By law, the…

Let’s not forget his virulent anti-Semitism, amongst other personality foibles. 

Exactly.

And even then, the only time that Spike being a bounty hunter specifically plays a role in him interacting with the syndicate involves the bounty on Mao Yenrai. Presumably, Spike is only aware of the bounty due to him being a bounty hunter. Every other interaction is, as you said, due to Vicious utilizing…

No one is saying, or has said, it’s a perfect show.

What people, like myself, are saying is that some of your criticisms are literally wrong because the anime outright showed the opposite of what you’re claiming (namely Spike’s cybernetic eye, or his few interactions with the Red Dragon Syndicate, only one of which is…

1. To your point about a job in law enforcement, a bounty hunter isn’t a law enforcement agent, nor do they enjoy many of the privileges afforded to law enforcement agents. Legally, they’re almost the equivalent of a private investigator, and depending on the state/locale, the degree in which they have to be licensed…

I enjoy Succession a great deal, never cared for any of Cody’s work, but a lot of the dialog between the two sound like awkward takes on what Armando Iannucci has done well throughout his career, with some David Mamet thrown in for good measure.

Sorry for the late response. Long night at work.

1. Space is incredibly big, and there’s a very real possibility that the odds of him encountering anybody from the Red Dragon is very low. There are people in Witness Protection within the US who can avoid running into their former criminal colleagues, and the US is…

I mean this sincerely, but what are some of those legitimate, reasonable questions that the anime simply blew past?

So long as the platform has a good enough catalog of shows/movies to watch, viewer retention is much less of an issue.

Netflix could get away with dropping entire shows to binge because they didn’t have much, if any, competition. Not only that, but they also had an ample catalog of shows and movies that couldn’t be imme…

Can’t for “The Gang Beats Boggs” either, if only for the fact I’m a baseball fan (and a native of Tampa, Fl where Boggs played for a time, and still resides), and drunken shenanigans on fictional planes can almost always get a laugh out of me.

It’s funny you mention food criticism, because I was thinking of just that when I was righting my reply.

The fundamental issue is one of clarity. To take the dinner example. If you go to a restaurant and your complaint is that your dish (let’s say a steak) is too cold, that’s a clear complaint that can be rectified.…

If anything (and I touched on this in a different response), but sociocultural, we’ve been conditioned to have different expectations with our different forms of consumed media.

Fans of opera have no qualms about sitting (with intermissions) for works that run 4-5 hours. You put a non-fan in that situation and a common…

Writing a tight, narratively coherent screenplay that hits 90 minutes and is a good movie is rather difficult, which is why many movies end up being, at best, just average. It’s also why you have to think that even with some of the schlock that gets made, it pales in comparison to the troves of truly horrendous…

But the companies have ownership of the footage in the first place, so they can legally do what they want with the footage, regardless of whether it’s financially prudent or not. This reviewer doesn’t own the footage, or the rights to the footage, so your argument is silly.

At best, this reviewer might have a…
