  1. If anything that should count as a whole other movie, so he's now up to 11.
  2. Here's the transcript of Barr's endorsement... “I’ve said all along, given two bad choices, I think it’s my duty to pick the person I think would do the least harm to the country, and in my mind, that’s — I will vote the Republican ticket,” Barr said in the interview. “I’ll support the Republican ticket.” Not exactly a real endorsement, but after all he's been through with trump and the election denial to still even say that??? Fuck Bill Barr. What a sniveling pathetic pile of old lunch meat mushed into the general shape of a man.
  3. If it's one movie he owes me a refund for the second ticket I had to buy.
  4. I always find it funny when they show me anti-capitalism stuff... not that that would be completely out of my wheelhouse..
  5. I know the end result of this will be TikTok just selling to another company and nothing really changes (right away) but this is such an own goal for Biden. Does he think signing a bill banning the most popular social media app with young people is going to win him any good will? I can't imagine a person who wasn't going to vote for Biden choosing to vote for him because of this... but I sure as shit can imagine a shit ton of people who may have voted for him choosing not to because of this. My TikTok feed is full of people freaking out about this. It's just gonna get worse.
  6. I've never played even a second of the games... watched the first episode and I dunno if I am in love with this show as much as everyone else. I feel like it's trying to be edgier and hipper than it actually is. The look is great, but the tone feels off somehow. I can't really put my finger on what I didn't love about it, but it just didn't wow me. I will keep watching though. Episode one gets a 3/5 from me.
  7. I have never seen a single episode of Bluey, but I'm pretty sure I get the appeal. A lot of kids programming is just really horrible and painful to watch, so any time there is a program that your kids love and you can tolerate or even enjoy it gets a ton of bonus good will. Then you forge positive shared memories with your children and the rest is history. It's not that complicated.
  8. Why do these modern military conflicts feel like they are between two grade school aged children? …or maybe two drunk guys in an Applebees parking lot at 12:45am?
  9. I've noticed this with my kids, they don't seek out new gaming experiences. They just play whatever all of their friends are playing. It's much more social and much less solitary. They don't want single player experiences at all. It's multiplayer or nothing. It's kind of weird to me, but whatever.
  10. I don't remember when I first registered on IGN, but I definitely was on the boards when I lived in Maryland and that was 1999-2002ish. I may have been registered before that, I was very into online message boards in the late 90s. I really can't remember. I definitely remember paying for access later in the life of IGN. When did this place start up? It was over a decade ago, right?
  11. Maybe this is common knowledge, but it was news to me... Turns out boop wasn't even fired. Boop had completed bop contract for the seasons beep made and then they did not renew boop contract. This lawsuit is a complete farce. (in accordance with bop wishes, this post was created using boop's desired pronouns)
  12. Dusk is super fun. I downloaded like 3 or 4 of those modern retro shooters that were the rage a few years ago and Dusk was the standout winner of the bunch. This game looks cool. I'm sure the novelty would wear off quickly, but if they price it right and make it a good length it could be a good time.
  13. I haven't actually seen the Barbie movie, but my understanding is that it is basically the Lego Movie, but slathered with over-the-top anti-patriarchy messaging. I'm guessing a monopoly movie will be the same thing, but for capitalism? Kinda rich coming from Hollywood, one of the most patriarchal and negatively capitalist industries to ever exist... We've had Clue and Battleship... what's next? Candyland? Risk? Life? Mousetrap? Chutes and Ladders?
  14. My kids love Chipotle and we eat there at least a few times a month. I don't condone the shooting of Chipotle employees... but I get it.
  15. Kiss fandom is pretty weird... it's like, everyone kinda knows it's all just a big novelty act designed to sell merchandise, and it's all pretty silly and dumb, but no one cares and everyone is in on it and buys all the merchandise anyway...
  16. Well, it took forever, but I finally finished this up. I thought the movie wrapped things up about as well as you can expect something like this to get wrapped up. I feel like a lot of characters fell to the wayside at the end, but I’m not sure if they could really have had a satisfying ending for everyone. It would have been like the ending of Return of the King times 10… Anyway, I’m not sure I really have that much to say… great show, watched it for 20 years, glad to see it go out while still being high quality. The last few seasons were great. I remember not really feeling em when I first watched, it the second time it all flowed better. I feel like the show peaked around season 2-3, fell off a bit in 4-5 and rebounded again with 6 and 7. The movie felt more like the season 7 finale than some sort of epic standalone event… and that’s just fine.
  17. The right wing retort to these is to show images of Kathy Griffin or Snoop Dogg when they did fictional acts of violence against Trump... the key difference of course being that (double checks notes) neither of them were president nor are running to be president.
  18. Wou;dn't it be funny if it turns out that chat GPT and all this shit AI artwork was just being hastily made by tens of thousands of Indians in a warehouse somewhere?
  19. Sometimes I think people sort of forget that the richest man on the planet bitching and moaning all the time like he's some sort of persecuted victim is a really fucking pathetic. Like, what are you even on about you dumb fucking loser? Things weren't stacked in your favor enough you dumb fucking idiot? Being in a better life position than pretty much every human to ever exist isn't good enough for you you ridiculous fuck? JUST FUCKING KILL YOURSELF because it's not going to get any better. Go cry somewhere else. OD on ketamine and shut the fuck up.
  20. They need to invent a combo bomb that explodes like normal but also sends out food and medical supplies as a form of humanitarian shrapnel for the victims.
  21. There's this new thing that's going around where everyone is dunking on Jon Stewart because he sold a condo for more than the state said it was worth and the dumb stupid idiot moron dipshit loser squad are all tugging each others semi hard micro penises in a collaborative celebratory online dunking party saying he did the exact same thing Trump did. #arrestjonstewart is trending... and all of it just total nonsense and you have to think that many of them know that but they do not care. They don't give a shit that it doesn't hold up to even a second of critical thought, fact checking or scrutiny... none of that matters... it's all about getting the win right now in the moment... and when it's debunked they just drop it and move on, or just double down on the idiocy and ignore facts... either way, they don't care. Nothing matters. Facts and logic don't matter. It's just a ever ending slurry tube of pure nonsense and vibes from these brain dead insufferable losers.
  22. Yeah, that price is off. Would make me leery... Printing and mailing a magazine alone costs way more what they are charging. There is no way they are making it back with ads and then also paying a staff of writers and designers? It just doesn't ad up. That said, I do miss the age of magazines. I remember as a kid knowing when the new EGm was supposed to arrive and waiting by the mailbox for it to arrive.... and how annoying it was when it didn't... a very different era. It's kind of crazy to think about how slowly information travelled back then compared to now.
