you can’t blame mellenials?

that feels like a very german answer to the question

my argument is that the current angst that ‘man, all they do today is just reboot the thing from 20 years ago’ is silly because that has been the entire world of entertainment since we invented entertainment. i further argued that it used to be a bit easier to pretend it was different because entertainers used to…

the wizard of oz from 1939 was a remake of the wizard of oz from 1925. this has been going on forever

who grills a keilbasa? you’re just wasting all the effort you made to smoke it up properly in the first place

it was sometime around shakespeare and even that is arguable. they just don’t pretend its a new idea anymore

it wasn’t a particularly good show the first time around- it was more A team then even say, law and order in its paint by numbers plotting and it looks and feels incredibly cheap (my childhood recollection of it even confirms that.)

but throw some weird CW remake/re-imagining nonsense on this and it could be the right…

that dune movie would have been interesting at least (as was lynch’s, if we’re being honest.)

and actually, i re-watched the lynch one the other day and its a very decent movie right up until the end of the second and all the way through 3rd act. its somewhat baffling, because its obvious they spent money on it, but…

When I was in elementary school I had a very good friend who’s dad was a k9 cop. They had their german shepards taught all of their commands in german so that the person they sent that dog after wouldnt know the words to call them off. I have no idea if that actually worked (it basically only followed commands from…

unless it comes with that model lady in the picture, 70 bucks is a rip off of epic proportion.

by that comparison they actually restrained themselves this year

its free advertising for Yandy, at the cost of a handful of malaysian made outfits that cost a nickle and that they’ll sell for 15 bucks

there was a sociologist who wrote a book on the idea, concluding after significant research that it was an urban legend. Although obviously you can’t prove a negative, so it could have happened in isolated cases.

subsequently he received several hundred letters from vets who claimed it had happened to them, but the…

its kind of odd, because Rambo is probably the second best of the series- the bad guys were legit bad (and we didnt even know half the evil stuff they’d been up to back then compared to now) so rambo could blow them away. the violence was shocking and impactful in a way that traditional rambo’s or commandos, etc…

i’d go to a restaurant where i got a decent close up magic trick everytime i got a meal, that seems better than a lot of themed places

taking the ‘people spit on me in the airport’ speech seriously is why you’re confused about the message of the first movie- and to be fair, the film makers were too. nobody spit on anyone or protested returning soldiers. younger people statistically were far more pro war than older people during vietnam. since vietnam…

humans design software in military jets to highlight anything that seems even slightly unusual as something that can be shot down. said software does its job, highlighting slightly unusual stuff to potentially get shot down. and somehow that means blink-182 proved aliens exist.

what a world

does it at least answer where roy cohn is?

weirdly i checked out when it had the ‘environmentally friendly silverware startup’ as its pitch. that stuff has been around for decades now- my old, stodgy massive, fortune 500 employer had it in the cafeterias of all of their buildings back in 2009 at least and they used the food management super giant sodexo to run…

when i renovated my kitchen i used ikea and it has been excellent. but it was obvious that the quality was far better than the college dorm stuff in other rooms and my wife and i did all the work ourselves (and we’re pretty competent) so i don’t know what having their contractors do the work would have resulted in
