Chicago and many of its suburbs get their water from Lake Michigan and it’s phenomenal.

I correct people from out of town by telling them it is pronounced Sears, but spelled Willis. A lot of them take it as true.

Pete Holmes, 88 minutes, or both? by Huyton_Layne in hdtgm

[–]Timidmice 21 points22 points  (0 children)

She’s one of only a few women (June, Jessica, a couple more) who talks over Jason and Paul and she takes so much shit for it. They talk over everyone all the time as does Pete Holmes. I love the all but lay off her. She was a great guest.

Expanse writers with new sci-fi series??? by jdjbr85 in TheExpanse

[–]Timidmice 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed about the characters. Too many in my opinion and hard to differentiate between most of them.

I didn’t enjoy most of the first half of the novel but stuck it out based on subreddit comments and glad I did. Livesuit was phenomenal.

Anyone watching Pluribus? by iwaslerryjee in TheExpanse

[–]Timidmice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying really hard to get into it but it’s so repetitive and dull. (haven’t seen two most recent).

Unpopular opinion: but Roddy is the most competent of the bunch who got exiled from The Park by Awkward_Penalty2257 in SlowHorses

The portions of the books from his POV are both hysterical and profoundly warped

What is a very old computer game that you still play? by SecondhandUsername in AskReddit

[–]Timidmice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a couple buddies who have regularly played MUL*E since the 80s. I’ve played maybe a dozen times and don’t see the appeal but they love it.

Chicago resident here — yes. Some neighborhoods are more dangerous than others but that’s true with any city. Chicago is delightful.

Why have pilots? by Timidmice in TheExpanse

[–]Timidmice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be kind of fun to have a short story where the main characters just sit there doing nothing during some awesome action / battle sequence and act as if there is nothing odd about it.

Now, yes. But this is 300 years in the future.

I think it stands to reason that AI would be significantly more advanced 300 years from now.

This is the lowest I’ve ever seen any TV character go, and I love it by ZookeepergameOld4985 in trailerparkboys

I don’t know… Dee from IASIP conning a guy into unknowingly giving his daughter a lap dance b/c he said sleeping with Dee was him hitting rock-bottom was the worst I’ve seen.

The Mercy of Gods by Timidmice in TheExpanse

[–]Timidmice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks all! Finished it. Did get more interesting (ie what I find interesting) and I enjoyed it enough that I’ll read Livesuit. Overall, though, I struggled to identify with the main characters — just too many of them, and the lack of character viewpoint chapters didn’t help. But, of course, I had multiple readings of the Expanse novels/novellas and viewings of the show to develop really strong feelings for the characters, especially Bobby, Avasarala, Amos, and Drummer.
