Okay thank you for bringing up what I call “closing time cues” - that really seems to be hit or miss and it baffles me. I mean with Rona its been a while for anything not just family/roommates, but it feels like every decent sized gathering with folks from a mix of places, at the end half the group seems to pick up on

“What is the NFL going to do?”

You realize the NFL is not under any obligation whatsoever to guarantee or even allow any individual employment, right? 

hey now - even acknowledging that shortcoming in your life is the most important step one can take, and is a simple one that 99% of assholes the world over never have any interest in doing. 

lowkey when people adamantly claim that lots of complex social rules regarding hosting other people are well known and unsaid and self explanatory, they are often accidentally admitting theyve never considered that people from poor/broken/traumatic homes often never got any experiences hosting folks, for many reasons

To be fair, if you’re in the Northeast and you’ve been in someone’s home for a bit and they aren’t offering you a beverage, snack, or any other welcoming thing (or even, like you said, mentioning bathroom location) they may be indicating they would not be especially upset about you leaving and not coming back, and may

I’d hate to see a top-notch show get lost in the Sabbac shuffle the way Solo: A Star Wars Story did (which is the best film of the Disney era).” 

Well we are the whitest, oldest state in the country and casual racism is our regional dialect, so..

I DO believe there was some sort of throwaway line in the first episode where Dolores mentioned “upgrades” to the bodies she would be using.

“ You’d think I’d start finishing the articles. I see she acknowledges it. I didn’t make it that far into the article. And it directly refutes my main point.”

One of my favorite, most surreal things about the era of Trump is when someone like you, who I am assuming to be a reasonable adult in general, regardless of how you feel about Trump, will have a momentary lapse where it’s revealed just how low our standards have fallen and try to suggest something that we all would

I mean, Flagg shows up with different names at different times with different faces, but this is pretty classic Flagg - genuinely hard to come to any other conclusion based on how Flagg is presented throughout the King universe.  I don’t really agree with anything else Swinton said here, but the assessment that the

“The question is, why now? I mean, this is the league that brought back Jay Cutler, FFS, rather than hire Kaepernick.”

Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.” - Stephen King

At this point it feels like these reviews are just written to troll people.

I have still been checking Splinter every few days, just in case, in some vain hope, it would be revived - then you both inspire me and break my heart with this post.

Luke-warm take: Most people are not actually “good” drivers, and people should have to re-take a driving test at least once every 10 years to maintain their license. 

Ha, you must not know many Boomers:

As a white person, I have to ask

Cool; more importantly, since your psychotic overlords are apparently passive-aggressively trying to run this site into the ground, what can we as readers do to support you guys? (This is only off topic because said psychotic overlords deleted the “Note To Our Readers” post)
