The best trick I’ve learned lately, although I hate doing it myself, is to offer to take notes, then make sure everything being discussed leads to actionable items. Get someone to own each item before you move on and then send out a follow up email with the notes and next steps. It can be awkward with strangers and…

I love early movies myself, but it did little to curb the annoying people for Endgame at least. There was one guy who was mentally handicapped and I’m willing to forgive his behavior because it’s not his fault, but he was yelling things at the screen throughout which was distracting none the less. Including a very…

I really hate that the ret-conned that whole phrase into meaning she’d kill the night king and other main characters. Remember She killed like hundreds of Frays last season. Pretty sure that prophecy is fulfilled and back when it was first said it was just meant to say she’d become a successful assassin. 

In the scene right before they explicitly said she was there to protect the fleet with the air support of the dragons. That all makes it even dumber that she wasn’t scouting ahead and on the lookout for enemy ships and got caught off guard.

Right, people of this generation may never understand this now since everything is a review of everything. Back then you’d stop at a mediocre diner on the side of the road, eat a weak ass ham sandwich and never think about it again. Now it becomes an open letter on Yelp about how that ham sandwich ruined your…

There were definitely cracks along the way but what really made me wonder if they were going to be able to pull off any successful ending is when they unceremoniously killed Littlefinger in the weakest way possible way after basically wasting him for 3 seasons. From the beginning they built him up as someone with a…

The show definitely started to show cracks a few seasons ago but the highs outweighed the lows in most cases. It wasn’t really until last season that I started get a bad feeling about it. The creators seemed more interested in getting everyone in place for giant Lord of the Rings style battles rather than tell nuanced…

How it ends:

My God it's full of spoilers 

“Why should I have to overpolice how I discuss a popular show to protect you from something that’s likely going to get spoiled for you anyway?”

PUFO Sighting. 

Since Google completely neglected their Finance app for years, then redesigned it to look like a search results page, sadly Yahoo remains one of the better free sites to view a simple watchlist with streaming updates. I could always use my brokers websites but then I’m getting logged out every ten minutes which is…

“Not reading a website or not checking Facebook or whatever for a few days shouldn’t be difficult.”

I used to react that way myself back when there were only a few good shows at a time. Now with all of these Netflix/Hulu/Amazon/HBO/AMC/ect. ect. originals it’s damn near impossible to keep up unless you quit your job and binge watch full time. Now my standard reaction when someone hasn’t seen something is complete…

That’s the purpose of the water in the tank, the reason there is standing water after you flush is to keep the smell where it belongs. Of course it also helps to have water there in the first place otherwise that thing might glue itself to the side of the bowl. 

The entire purpose of the water in your toilet in the first place is to block the smell of the sewer pipe from backing up into your house and stinking up your existence. It’s safe to assume a partially submerged turd is less potent than a fully exposed one.

Is that a real thing now because I saw a guy wearing that shirt a few days ago and was pretty confused. 

FWIW I as a man don’t play adult league sports either for this same reason, overly aggressive bros. Not worth blowing a knee at age 38 because some guys fragile ego can’t handle losing a zero stakes game. I guess I’m just not the competitive type because I honestly can’t muster a single shit to give when I lose a game…

I just watched in genuine awe, as Fox News’ Shepard Smith blubbered on about how he traumatized he is by all these shootings and having been reporting outside Columbine on the night of the massacre there to then go on to say there have been 25 school shootings since Columbine. Uhh guys, there have been almost 25 this…
