I thankfully work from home now, so lost the commute. You have my deepest sympathies. We have a lakehouse down at Lake Gaston on the VA/NC border and rather than take the beltway and 95 down we loop way west and take backroads because EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. on 95 there is an accident which adds an hour to the trip, let…

And eventually you lose even that! Take it from an old who will watch a movie on HBO and his wife will go, “We saw that in the theater, remember?” “Are you sure....”.

Reading this almost two years later, but that is awful and you have my sympathies. I hope you’re doing well and are approaching that point where you are smiling at the memories of your father more than you are crying at them.

When I moved to DC I saw more traffic accidents in a year than I had in the previous 10 years living in Illinois. Its the fucking wild west here!

When I worked in CPS for 10 years two of my supervisors had done the job for 35 years, starting together. The same shit happens no matter what the year. If anything, the Internet made our job easier thanks to really stupid clients posting about what they were doing along with a much easier time to find and report…

So long as they don’t kill them all! C’mon Marvel, how can we get the Masters of Evil or Sinister Six if your villains are dead at the end of almost every movie!

Considering the way the Dominator reacted to him in that episode where aliens were stealing earthlings for the slave trade I’d say you’re 100% right.

Yep, I still haven’t finished Luke Cage and seriously doubt I ever will. Just not impressed at all with it.

Yeah I’m busy enough I constantly have a backlog of games I want to play. Pre-ordering was for the days before kids and work. Though even now, since I don’t play console games anymore, I’d just buy day one digital if I truly wanted to play the first day. Now I just watch my Steam wishlist and buy stuff during one of…

I don’t really mind villains showing up before Bats, especially in Riddler’s case. He’s... 30-35ish max? Even if it takes Bruce a decade to become Batman that would put the Riddler at at 40-45, which is just fine. He’s a more mental villain by far, and would probably be extremely dangerous until dementia takes him.…

cause you know if the company got into financial troubles they’d be soooo loyal to you... I view my work almost like I’m a mercenary. You pay me x to do y. If I don’t like x or y or the relation between the two I’m outta here. My first job I turned down a better offer to work where I was cause the company seemed so…

Not sure if they still use them... but there was a time they’d use makeshift submarines!!

I checked 2 different sites cause I was like, “Naaaaah that’s gotta be wrong.... well crap.”

Yeah we’re almost 17 years (!) since Unbreakable. Your average moviegoer probably isn’t making the connection even if they did see Unbreakable over a decade ago.

Reporters need to attend all future press conferences while snacking on Dippin Dots.

And they only talk about Chicago cause Obama was from there. Bets on how often Chicago gets mentioned a year from now, even if the murder rate got worse or per capita it somehow skyrocketed to number 1? I’m guessing “not at all”.

The first 3 years were roughhhhhh. We’re entering a phase now where they’re more “little girls” than “toddlers” which is really nice. Of course.... off in the distance looms the teenage years.... but we’ve got a good 8ish years before that to enjoy :D

Ezra shows up, kills both of them. Then Kanan shows up and kills Ezra. The end!

And R2's apprentice... an old, yet still very clumsy, Jar Jar Binks.

I could wait till 2 am, hiding in a closet eating my cake... and they’d still know. “Daddy... do you have cake in there? can we have some?” Nooooooooooooo
