Movie lengths confuse me. I usually watch 1 hour 30 minutes films, people say those are too short. But then i hear that 3.5 hour long films are too long... what's the ideal length then??? 2 hours? isn't that still quite long?

The last time I watched something that long in the theater was Pandora and that's because it was an experience. I had no interest in repeating that with the sequel

Everyone I know that complains about movies being too long have no problem binging 10 hours of what every show on streaming.

A 2.5+ hour movie:
At home? No problem.
At a theater? The complaint is justified.

I can binge the a full season of a streaming show specifcally because I can pause when I need to take a piss or get a snack or rewind if I missed/couldn't hear some dialog. I'm not paying the exorbitant price to sit in a theater for a 2.5+ hour long movie knowing that, at some point, I'm going to end up missing a chunk of it because I need the bathroom or because the theater's sound mix is shit and I can't hear voices/dialog over the loud ass sound effects.

I was vacuuming my window but didn't realize that the rolling brushes at the bottom of the vacuum cleaner were still active when using the hose accessory and it ripped right through my bed cover. At least it didn't destroy more than that but lesson learned. I guess I'm spending $30 for a replacement after work. Sadge.

I realized that I'm actually quite good at helping people improve themselves or their situations, so I have been thinking about starting some kind of consultation firm, but for general problems. Does such a thing exist? And would there be a demand for it? I mean, plenty of people mail Ask Abby

THIS is exactly how I feel. I have no real desire to go to the movies. Overpriced and most suck these days. However, the wife likes going. I don't really understand it, loud ass people, cold, expensive snacks. Crowded aisles versus being at home, comfortable and having a drink if desired.
 
I had a dream that President Biden was secretly Aquaman and Gal Gadot was my nanny.

I wish my dreams were true.

yeah that show was great, but like a lot of stuff these days it gets cancelled before they properly finish it off. Won't spoil it but the preview for the season that never came to be looked interesting...
 
When a solid object comes into contact with another solid object, they do not phase through each other.

Doordarsh drivers do not understand this and put deliveries on the welcome mat directly in front of doors which open outward.

Please educate your Doordarsh drivers.

Dear science: how about you stop fucking around and invent carb-free pasta that tastes like the real thing already
 
Since I don't want to go over two cups of regular coffee each day, I've started incorporating decaf into my daily allowance.

I am totally hooked on this shit:

0001111002317


I've tried quite a few different decafs in that last few months, but for some reason (and there's only the one ingredient -- 100% organic coffee) this stuff tastes like chocolate. And I farkin' LOVE chocolate! :messenger_grinning_sweat:
 
Pete Davidson is not funny. At all.

Why entertainment persists with him is completely beyond my understanding. Probably one of the most annoying people I've ever had to watch in a movie.
 
One of the weirdest things i've seen in my life is seeing this animated show called "The Amazing Digital Circus" reach 72 million views on Youtube in under 3 weeks.

This is the pilot episode. Almost no hype before the show's release. i saw some people talk about it beforehand, but not 72 million views worth of hype. It just showed up and gained the views of an average music video.

I call it weird because I haven't seen it yet so I have no idea if it's any good or not. At the very least it's nice to see indie animation get some love

Hayden Christensen in Ahsoka was amazing. In twenty or so minutes this guy redeemed a trilogy of movies.
 
A woman I dated in high school asked me on BlueSky how to describe the smell of my penis.

You know what? It smells like Chris Evans's smile and laugh.

Chilling moment gunman kills two protesters blocking road in Panama

The killer, who shot two protestors in shocking video, could avoid prison because of his age
www.telegraph.co.uk www.telegraph.co.uk

I know this is a bad take.
I know blocking the road isn't justification for murder.

But maann, if I were rich enough to get away with it....

When people protest by inconveniencing normal people, it really triggers me.

I don't mean people who are walking down a street protesting, I mean the people who block highways to stop traffic type shit.

I didn't want to start a thread because I know most reasonable people would probably shit on me for my opinion. (also got banned for a similar option pre neo break-up).

If your religious, pray for me.

Take a different route. Life is too short to focus on the worst parts of it.

If it's too difficult, move into the countryside or a small town. Way less issues with traversal. Although I get stuck behind cars doing 10-29 under the speed limit more frequently, the overall experience is much more enjoyable.

Let me just say, I've never been stuck in traffic due to any protest. I don't think it's something that happens very often. But when ever I read about it, I can image myself being very upset if I were in that situation. Especially if I was coming home from work, I would be livid.

Not enough to just shoot someone, but I would be ready to fight.
 
The way i discover music and new genres is weird. I will start with the most obscure shit, and eventually work my way up to the mainstream. It's the reverse for everybody else.
