Right? I mean it may not have been the height of quality cinema, but Reynolds and Jackson were fucking hilarious.

I mean, not really? Sure Natalie Portman doesn’t look like an “aging pop-star” but she is actually in her late thirties in real life. Which is plenty old enough to realistically have a daughter in the 17-20 year old age range. She would definitely have been a young mom, but with what we know about the storyline I’m…

I mean, I hear you on Char Grill 100%

I still don’t accept your basic assertion which essentially boils down to “some people get upset about/are made uncomfortable by Thing X, therefore Thing X is rude.”

What?

YES!

Exactly!!

Soo... fun story. I have a birthmark on the side of my neck that looks EXACTLY like a hickey. It was incredibly prominent as a baby and has faded the older I get, but it was still fairly noticeable in middle school/high school and even today while I think most people don’t notice I occasionally get…

LOVE me some fried cartilage :)

I can’t possibly be the only one who went here, right .... ?

It doesn’t have any foam, it’s really odd. Comes in a regular plastic bottle and literally just looks like a bottle of water.

Except it’s a non-alcoholic beer, so it doesn’t even do that right!

They were raised to always say yes sir/ma’am but in other areas where it’s not common, they assume you are being sarcastic or back-talking. So if this happened…

It’s not quite an equivalent role to the kind of PA you’re thinking of — translating it as Production Assistant is a bit misleading. The Japanese is just “production management,” sort of a generalized term for all of the coordinators/managers/assistants/producers. So that average is probably also including the…

Anime series are typically funded by a Production Committee (Seisaku Iinkai) composed of several companies — for example, a publishing company (the one publishing the manga the anime is based on), a record studio (the OP/ED will be done by one of their artists), and the animation studio. Sometimes there might be…

haha, yeah I definitely would not bother to grind the seeds down myself! But black sesame paste is pretty easy to find if you have access to an Asian grocery.

Black sesame ice cream is also really good! And many recipes are suuuuuper easy to make, basically just mix and freeze, like this one.

“Starve” =/= “starve to death”
