I automatically filled in that blank. Because, of course the cops managed to fuck up a sitiation. Not surprised.

Don’t know how it is in the comedy category and not drama.

I know it was discussed last year, but classifying The Bear as a comedy is a bit unfair. While the show certainly has its comedic moments, that shit is a stressful drama 90% of the time. I accept that awards are always bonkers, and comparing art and performances is not ever “fair.” It just seems insincere to put yourself in the same category as a show like What we do in the Shadows or Abbott Elementary when it seems to clearly belong in competition with shows like Shogun or Mr and Mrs Smith.

I don’t think you can compare the acting of Jeremy Allen White in a serious show about the life of a chef to that of Matt Berry who is pretending to be a horny vampire and occasional girls volleyball sponsor/humble neighborhood bartender from Tucson Arizonia. Jackie Daytona was robbed, and I will die on this hill.

How is Fallout a drama and not a comedy? How is this classification decided?

I haven’t watched that in years! I’d almost forgotten how much young me liked it and now older me sees more wisdom in it.

I see you are well versed in bird law.

Never heard that name for it. But that’s perfect!

This review makes a lot of great points about parts of the series that I was having trouble putting into words. Especially the bit about the scope being so grand and beautiful and then zooming too far in so that the cities or towns feel like a set.

On social media, I keep seeing the Rings of Power promotions with ‘Deep Dives in Lore’ or something like that. Why have these deep dives if the lore doesn’t add up? Tom Bombadil doesn’t deserve this.

From the trailer, I get the feeling that the movie is going to be a bit egotistical and preachy? Maybe that isn’t the right word. It just feels like the director is shouting at the viewer through the trailer about the state of the chaos in the world today. Obviously, his older movies were much more intimate stories focused on character growth that I found very easy to watch. This seems like a huge scope with a high concept and a risk of going off the rails.

I’m in the same boat with limited time to sit down and watch a movie. Will probably not waste my time on this and only watch it if I hear good things from people in my life that I trust to give decent recommendations.

The “Victorian House” is just the commonly accepted name for the archetectural style. I’m not an architectural expert, but the average person in the US would hear that and imagine a 3 story house with porches and elabroate decorations. The US certainly has a distinctive building and decorative style from that era that is different than any Victorian homes in the UK.

Can you explain this one?

What an absolutely horrific change in her day to day life over the course of a few short weeks. I hope she recovers quickly, although I hear that burn recovery is brutal and that her boyfriend goes to prison forever for such a malicious act.

Looks like the marketing for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice has gotten extremely meta.

The F-650 and F-750’s are designed as small commercial trucks that should have small dump truck bodies or maybe flat bed for hauling other materials. They are not meant to just have a standard pickup bed on the back. They are ideal for small contractors who do not need as large a quantity of material that a large triaxle truck can carry. But of course, some people want the biggest personal truck to drive around so things like your picture are born.

30th St Station in Philly, and I’m sure many other train stations in the world, has a similar layout with stairs down to the tracks. And has benches along the railing. The benches don’t obstruct the movement of people going up or down the stairs, but start from the top of the stairs and sit along the unused space to the sides of the stairs. The line to show tickets forms to one side of the stairs so that while passengers leaving the train can go up the stairs on their right the passengers joing can go down on their right. If you are early to your train, you can sit right there in the front of the line on a comfortable bench, and the line can form behind you.

Was going to say with all of the episode of Dr. Who, it had to be in one of them.

This meme just makes me miss Jim Can’t Swim videos on youtube.

What is the point of being self-aware if the only thing you are aware of is your inadequacies and failures? We need validation in order to keep going.

Hey, I love all mystery novels. Cheesy or not!

That was part we were confused by! I literally asked my coworkers before I called the cops if this was some sort of prank they were playing on me because no one else had access to the area and it just seemed like something out of a cheesy mystery novel. When the police opened the bag and it was just clothes I was so relieved, but the roll being inside was weird. Like someone either had another roll of tape for the outside, or they preeemtively cut a length off before putting the roll inside. Who knows. I wonder if I’ll ever get a call about it, but suppose no news is good news.

The circumstances it was found in were a little different than OPs, like I said the bag appeared overnight. And on private property where there was no road access. Little bit suspicious for a heavy suitcase to wind up in a place like that. The detective agreed. Police aren’t just there to make traffic stops. He said there were a few unsolved missing persons cases that police had searched the nearby area for on account of their circumstances. In one case, a wife went missing, and her husband was spotted circling the roads nearby for hours the night she went missing but her body was never found.

I just kept my story brief because I didn’t think anyone would be interested. But there was absolutely reason to think it could amount to something. And all I’m saying is if I get murdered, I hope the local cops I initially called aren’t on the job cause those guys acted like they wanted to be sitting in their car eating donuts.
