It was like that IRL. I’m one of the guys on the left in that screen cap and <a href=”https://the-avocado.org/2017/11/06/both-sides-now-dunkirk-part-1/”>wrote about working on it.</a>

Or Nash Bridges?

Congratulations, lady. You won.

For some reason, it’s very difficult to make grit and dirt come through on camera. I was shocked when I visited the Community set and discovered how much effort had been made toward making Greendale look as ratty as possible to no effect.

That’s his point: he’s saying that Serkis is worse for taking such blatant inspiration from a bland middlebrow film.

It varies from one election to the next. But California is a special case in that it actually was an independent country and still maintains a fragment of that Spanish Imperial base culture while (unlike NM, HI, or AK) being WAY too big and powerful to be ignored. There’s also the issue of dry summer/wet winter…

Many of my older friends in California are perplexed as to why avocados have become a go-to symbol for youthful, amoral decadence, as avocados have always been a staple here for their cheapness.

And originally meant something real-sounding but untrue.

Californio Spanish is closer to Castilian than it is to Mexican.

How about this: they have a lot of patriotic shit that violates the Flag Code, and pretend to be offended about disrespecting the flag.

They don’t like seeing black people in the ghetto, because they must not be pulling their weight, and they don’t like seeing black people in the White House, because they must be pulling the strings to get one over on whitey. Whatever you do, they’ll find a reason to hate you.

I’m from Southern California and don’t know any nurses under the age of 60 who are white.

Science doesn’t disprove religion; it disproves the misuse of religion as a medium for exercising control over the corporeal world. Armchair theologians like them give truth to the lie of every 12-year-old he-man New Atheist.

What about Southies?

Unfortunately, the fans still think it’s a semi-obscure cult show and are super-annoying about it.

I have a special place in my heart for Horatio’s Drive, but of the *really big* Ken Burns docs, this is right in the top 3 with The Civil War and Baseball.

Cue Krembots flooding the comment section to scream that the weather had nothing– NOTHING– to do with defeating the Germans because crediting ANY factor other than the innate superiority of the Russian spirit is a slap in the face, let alone crediting any other country for contributing to the victory against Germany...

My mother was one of those people complaining that the space program was a waste of money. Ironically, her father went on to install the computers on the first round of space shuttles.
