My partner works for a public service. People CONSTANTLY come up to him, lean in, and pull down their masks to ask questions.

The number of people I’ve seen on the subway with an N95 worn under their nose (or on their chin entirely) makes me want to scream.

I also was under the impression that crab mustard was risky to eat unless you knew where the crab originated, because its job was to filter toxins out of the rest of the body and would, therefore, contain pollutants that the flesh would not...

I’ve never been one to eat whole animals, ever, for this reason...

It’s just a vein, not a digestive tract.

“Your Name.” deserves the anime slot more than Spirited Away. I’ve never felt the threads of a film come together so completely well as Your Name. (I love Spirited Away, to be clear). My partner never connects with anime, but he’s a film guy. I made him watch it and he immediately ordered the Bluray. 

I’m a massive Star Wars nerd (currently in the middle of a huge timeline rewatch including all the prequels).

That’s cool. The overwhelming majority of film viewers, however, did not.

The Final Cut of Blade Runner is much better than the Director’s Cut. 

The misogynistic humor in Groundhog Day has not... aged well.

That’s not what the court finding said.

You’re not making it clear why the store is held liable and not the parents for monitoring their own kid and keeping track of how they spend their money. A kid uses money to buy alcohol at a store, the store is held liable.

Depends on the seller.

I was fortunate to get a PS5. I love it.

In most RPGs, most of your stats come from leveling a character with experience points.

Yeah. I get that clickbaity titles are what websites need nowadays to survive, but it’s also true that rational facts won’t alleviate fear of flying in most people.

That’s not what those words mean. At all.

McDonald’s chicken sandwich is so absolutely the bottom of the pack when it comes to chicken sandwiches of all fastfood chains. Both the regular and the spicy are just.... utterly disappointing.

I do really wish it worked like some of the free online crosswords and such, where you can play a week or two back at a time. It’s nice when you can play on your own time. Like if I know I’ll be in a doctor’s office waiting room this week, I’d love to be able to save them for that visit...

Can we get a group think going of other ways to defraud Paul into bankruptcy? I’d really like that - I think we’ve all earned it after the last 2 years. We can have a little schadenfreude as a treat.
