Holy shit! Someone I knew, his family was East Coast Jewish, was mentioning like 10 years ago that he had heard a thing that was going around the ultra-orthodox community was something about an oral mohel. He didn’t really know much about it & we gave it a grain of salt, but clearly it must have had some basis in fact!

The obviousness of Carol's post escape breakdown being 90% ADR'd was jarring & made it so much worse.

Well, that is def something I can get behind!

I’m Asian & don’t understand what’s wrong with a rare steak and/or a medium rare burger. Different meats require different cooking. Steaks are best a little bloody, medium rare is the sweet spot for burgers, Korean BBQ should be thin cut & charred, etc.

That Kingdom trailer has a lot of TWD vibes with the action poses then zoom to the character’s face. I guess marketing is marketing.

Sooo, that pizza is basically the same as a “pizza salad” or “salad pizza” that is somewhat popular in parts of Los Angeles. Except this one has Doritos on top. Salad pizzas are frickin’ dumb no matter what my SoCal friends say. Take a perfectly good pizza, then dump a bunch of iceberg lettuce on top to water down the…

The alt-right often uses the atrocities that the Russians committed during the tail end of WWII as a dog whistle to downplay the actions of the Nazis, but damn. The Russians were our allies, yet their concentration camps were pretty horrific too. Forced labor, starvation, mass executions. Not exclusively captured…

I wondered about this when it happened. Still, as an American citizen, how much pressure could they legitimately have exerted? I want to hope for the best, but I still feel like the choice was hers to make. I really want to see & support this movie, her poor decision I don’t think is enough to make me pull my support,…

First of all, take your damn star. Second, didn’t realize that Justin Lin made Han’s character to be same character as in BLT. And now I’m in a rabbit hole. I missed the last FF, though I did watch Hobbes & Shaw on a plane. I guess I’ll need to catch up.

I think you meant “you all everybody” are wrong.

I lived with a TV for ~1 year that had an odd thing happen to it. It took 5-10 minutes to “turn on.” Luckily, after hitting power, it would cycle itself on & off automatically (no need to sit around & press power over & over again) until it would work right. The TV would turn on, but the picture would be all messed…

I was hesitant about too many features. Also, I luckily had an experience trying to cast something on a relative’s Samsung TV over the holidays. So, I knew to avoid Samsung since they don’t support Android casting. I ended up with a fine TCL with the Roku interface. So far, it’s great. I believe that it supports…

I was pretty upset by this in the trailer as well. But honestly, they kinda made a point to explain it in the actual movie. I feel like there were multiple MacGuffins that kept the Star Destroyers from “breaking atmosphere.” Ergo, no worries.

Not bad. Hopefully it erases everything the Katana became. The less than affectionate nickname for them from when I worked in a shop was “can o’ tuna.”

Any research on the soju/sake divide? I’m Korean-American, but don’t really drink soju. I have heard some folks claim that it’s common for people fall into 2 camps: Those who can drink soju like a champion & be OK the next day, while the same with sake will destroy them. And those for whom the opposite is true.

I guess it depends on what you’re cooking, but I love the unique smells of people’s houses if they’re decent cooks. I mean, all it takes is sauteing some garlic & onions to make a house smell welcoming.

If it’s a facial recognition storage device, seems like it could really be adapted for anything, right? If it works for weed, one would assume you could use the same tech for something like a gun locker. Which seems like something a different segment of the population would be interested in.

If you look on Google Fi forums though, you’ll quickly find that Fi’s customer support is total garbage. Sure, I love my 3a, especially at the price point. But it took me 2+ months to get a charge on my card reversed for a phone I sent back to them that was lost by their chosen shipper (FedEx, btw, who I’ve never NOT…

You bring the beer, I'll bring the diapers.

I am not a fan. I’m hoping to watch weekly & arrange a viewing party with my other fan friends. Not into the fact that if I wanted to, I could put on some diapers, sit on my couch, then watch the entire thing in one night.
