The way they let their god get away with everything is why they let their politicians get away with everything, and why they will continue to vote them in, despite those politicians’ track records of enriching themselves and leaving their constituents out to dry.

“Han! The odds of avoiding bankruptcy are 4:1!”

“Never tell me the o-oh. Actually, that’s not bad. Yeah, no, let’s keep going.”

The Shawshank Redemption - Clancy Brown

When my wife saw that movie for the first time and hollered out, “That’s Clancy Brown!!” I then knew why his voice was so familiar to me.

So now I’m imagining Mr. Krabs absolutely fed up with and not taking shit from any of these Muppets.

So either that or Airplane! and keep Leslie Nielsen

One of my favorite movies that my wife refuses to watch with me because it always makes her cry.

I mean, me too, but it’s good to cry every now and then.

DVDs are dirt cheap, plentiful as fuck, don’t have DRM bullshit to have to deal with, last for decades when stored properly, and still look pretty damn good with deinterlacing. Plus, they don’t run any of the risks associated with piracy. Am I allowed to copy my DVDs onto my hard drive? That may be a legal gray area. But can they see that I copied my DVDs to my hard drive? Of course not. And I’m not making my ISOs and MKVs available to the world for download.

Spend 4 bucks on a used DVD. Give her the ol’

dd if=sr0 of=~/Videos/Movies/Title.iso

And keep the disc for basically forever. Copy it again if something happens to your file. EZPZ. Plus, it’s cool to own a physical thing imo.

One last thing: DVDs come with subtitles. I have a hard time understanding spoken words. I like to read my movies as I watch them. Makes it easier to know what’s going on without cranking the volume to 11. Speaking of which, the menu for the Spinal Tap DVD is excellent.

It’s not the cub scratching your face that’s what you need to worry about.

Far Cry 3 was absolutely a high point in the series. At least until the second half of the game. But the first half is incredible. The 2010s had some amazing video game villains. Vaas, Handsome Jack, Flowey, Father Comstock…hell, I’ll even throw in Andrew Ryan and GLaDOS.

I liked Far Cry 4 and 5. I’ll argue that Joseph Seed is the closest to a second Vaas the series has come. He’s not as melodramatic as Vaas, but he is a solid B- villain in my book. Pretty convincing, menacing, and rooted in his beliefs. Plus, I ran co-op a lot with my wife. So lots of good memories there.

I’ve been living in Oklahoma for over 20 years now, and I’ve still never seen a Native American.

“Most of them” is the understatement of the day. Our country killed nearly all of them.

Nope. I was at the drive thru in the front of the line waiting on my food with the engine switched off. I never touch my phone in the car unless I’m off the road and stationary.

I’m not gonna make a post saying this guy’s a moron for driving with an icy windshield while I’m taking a picture of it doing 40 miles an hour and uploading it. That’d make me kind of a major hypocrite, wouldn’t it?

But they got to the drive thru with their windshield like this. Which is kinda terrifying.

Yup. Completely iced over.

Here it is on my Sequoia. At least the knobs are different shapes. Not at all good place for that.

Those plastic climate control knobs come off easier than you’d expect and are a pain to get back on.

I’m a simple man. If I see Whiterun, I quicksave.

Crashes are all a part of the Bethesda experience, and until you embrace it, you’ll never experience the joy their games have to offer lol

299,999 is divisible by 7 and 17.

Tbf, most people pose no threat to the average cat. Like razor blades welded to a flying angle grinder that always knows which way is down.

Another layer: Zilwaukee is in MI and Milwaukee is in WI.

That’s actually really cool.

The only foreign coin I have came from a roll of quarters I got in 2015. Back when I visited the laundromat weekly. I stuck my quarters in the machine, but this one kept getting spit out so I checked it. I didn’t recognize the characters on it, but I had an Iranian coworker who might so I took it to work and asked if she knew what it was. She immediately goes, “Oh! This is a dirham! It’s from the UAE.”

Turns out it was worth 23¢ at the time lol

The Weimar Republic has entered the chat.

Who knows how long that man had to work to earn that much paper? Twelve minutes? Thirteeeeen minutes?

Anyway, until inflation hits at least 4,130,772,540,007,917,373,294% Americans should really stop griping about it.
