Wow, you hadn’t gone out to eat or seen someone new?

Nope. MIL is immuno-compromised due to the cancer treatments she is receiving. And since she doesn't speak English we're the ones taking her to appointments and translating. So we've been extra careful for that reason.

I can feel Covid getting closer and closer now around me as winter settles in.

 

I feel like eventually I'm gonna end up getting it at the grocery store, walking my dogs, or some random moment like checking my mail. 

That's what happened to our house. So, unfortunately I think you're right

Not just SARS-CoV-2, but full-blown COVID-19?

This all sounds really good. Fuck y’all hating on obi wan I’m still looking forward to that. Only thing I’m hesitant of is that Rangers show. If it has Gina carano that’ll suck. 

Literally the only "go back in time" thing I wanted them to do. And they're doing it! I'm excited.

Rest a lot if you can, my man. I hope it doesn't get too unbearable for you.

On the flip side I've known people who WANT to work on those days because they just want the extra money or don't care about the holiday.

Spawn acknowledged that. And I agree with him. There's always one guy. But almost everybody else is miserable.

You're all forgetting about the Jews and other non-Christians bored out of their fucking skulls on Christmas Day. 

Sounds like an east coast problem to me.

them and Blockbuster. I worked every Christmas Day every year I was employed by Blockbuster. 

Yeah. I worked at Hollywood Video for about four years when in high school and my first little bit at college. I worked every Christmas and Thanksgiving. Nobody wanted to be there because customers are in the absolute worst moods those days. And so are the employees.

This happened to me some months ago in a drive thru but I didn't pay for the person behind me.

Yeah. I went to McD's one day to get a dollar coffee before a concert. I was tired and needed a pick me up. The drive thru worker said that the person in front of me paid for it and that the last 10 cars have paid for each other's meals. Would I like to keep the chain going? I look in front of me and it's a mini van. Well I'm sure that family is happy to eat for a dollar. I look behind me... Another mini van. "I'm guessing the car behind me ordered a lot more than a dollar's worth of stuff." $30-something. "Nah I'm good."

Those don't count as American casualties.

Wait, this isn't true...

 

3,000+ is the Union casualties. The Confederates lost over 4,000. 

 

They're not Union so they don't count.

@GeneticBlueprintHow ya feeling, Danny boy?

Hey thanks for asking. I'm doing pretty well. I have a lingering, intense dry cough that just won't go away but my taste/smell is mostly back I feel like. Sore throat is gone too.

Anti Hollywood but extremely pro consumer. This will be a fun tightrope walk to watch. I wonder which side they'll fall of or if they'll make it to the other side.

!

This is dope I hope it happens.

My wife grew up in a third world country without a TV and she loves Seinfeld and rewatches it constantly. You don't need to have any larger cultural or sitcom context for that show to be funny simply because all of the characters are brilliant and the writing is top notch.

She also fucking hates Friends. Probably why we get along so well.

Good lord this thread is full of insane scary people.

Fellowship is 178 for theatrical 

and 228 with extra credits for the EE

 

ROTK EE is an 63 mins

Oh wow. I can't math today it seems.

12 minutes ago, SimpleG said:

It’s closer to 50 mins with credits. Being a flagship film I am sure they wanted it to be top tier and this was the only way to do it.

I think that 50 min is for ROTK. Even with creds Fellowship tops out at an additional 38 minutes.

@SimpleG I stand corrected. Thanks. Though it does make me wonder the difference in quality between the theatrical and extended versions then since the theatrical fit on one disc and you're only adding an additional ~30 min on Fellowship for example.

You’re buying the 4K version for the quality. And the quality needs space. 

Yeah that's the case on dvd. A 4k blu ray disc holds 100 GB and the files on these discs combined don't approach that.

Just popped it in to watch the beginning sequence of Fellowship. These look incredible. Moreso than any other movie I've seen on 4k from the 2000s era. Just incredible.

They're still separating each movie out to two fucking discs good christ that is irritating. Understandable on DVD. Not on Blu ray.

Also if for some reason I win the vinyl I'll send it to you if you want it.
