On the other hand, people who make blockbuster sequels to cult movies and assume that enough of their audience will have seen the original to not have to provide necessary context in their movie are idiots.

You have to remember that the governor doesn’t consider those frat bros rapists unless they kidnapped a stranger off the street and forcibly raped them at gunpoint or knifepoint. Anything other than that is just “boys being boys”, not rape, so no exception for those cases in Texas.

They should have shot a lot more of those fuckers.

I can’t believe there are people who think she did it on purpose. (Also, no offense, but I can’t believe there are people who say “on accident” instead of “by accident”.)

The movie is set in the 1940s. Google “1940s catcher’s mitt”.

Correct. It could not have been on purpose. If it was, then fuck Dottie, she just completely fucked the rest of the girls out of the win (and the pay bonus that no doubt came with it). But she didn’t. She tried to put Kit away, and lost for the only time.

You are all out of your minds. There’s NO WAY she did it on purpose. She got creamed at the plate and Kit beat her fair and square for the first and only time in her life.

And he did the right thing, but damn. Al Franken, more than any other Democratic politician, would have been uniquely suited to battling against Trump’s bullshit during his presidency. The world really needed him in that moment, and he was just out of public life.

I remember the first time I made $10/hour, and that I thought it was an awesome amount of money. This was in the mid-90s. Don’t get me wrong, I knew it wasn’t a “high” wage, but it was more than enough to pay rent with two roommates and have money left over for food, entertainment, and beer. Sometimes my brain still…

Because sooner or later the assistance that workers have been relying on to turn down low-wage shit jobs is going to disappear, and they’ll be right back where they started.

Recalibrate your sarcasm detector.

Sorry, you made a mistake here: “a police officer kneeled on George Floyd’s neck, killing him.” It should read: “A police officer kneeled on George Floyd’s neck, and then George Floyd died of unknown causes in an officer-related incident.”

Also, she died a little younger than Harry is now. She may have intended to write a proper autobiography some day and never got the chance.

“Speedball” was used as an alternate form of “fastball” at one time, but basically never, today. Most likely because of the confusion with the drugs.

In the Springsteen version, it’s “cut loose like a deuce” and it’s the best-enunciated line in the song. You can thank Manfred Mann’s Earth Band for odes to wrapping up douches.

This was my first thought. I recall an interview from a late-night appearance she made after the first season, when she said something along the lines of “my parents loved me so much that they moved to LA because they knew I really wanted to be an actor”.

Some day you’ll be an adult, with adult responsibilities, and you’ll look back at when you thought like this and cringe.

Finding enjoyment in challenge is fine. You do you. No one really cares. It’s only when gamers act like overcoming that challenge is an actual meaningful achievement worthy of admiration that it’s a problem. Like, fine, enjoy it. You’re not better as a person in any way for having done it.

It’s an arbitrary, meaningless challenge, and it doesn’t make you better in any real, applicable way, but go off.

You know what else is needed in a parent mode? Cutscene video controls. You should be able to pause and rewind all cutscenes and dialog. There’s few things I find more frustrating as an adult gamer than missing dialog and cutscenes because real world responsibilities take priority. JFC, let me pause! I should have to…
