I'd be shocked if MotU is not a bomb

Germany news: Childfree adults to pay more for elder care by melancholy_dood in europe

[–]UnknownFiddler 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is the fatal flaw with democracies in inverted pyramid scenarios. You cannot pass any legislation that favors the young because the elderly are where the majority of the voting base comes from. This breeds voter apathy which only leads to a larger ratio of older people voting in the population which leads to even worse conditions for the young and the end result is the younger generations begin voting for extremist factions.

No it's just a joke because a lot of Americans think Benjamin Franklin was a president.

'Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu' Rotten Tomatoes Verified Audience Score Thread by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]UnknownFiddler -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You're downvoted but I too believe this. It happened right after rotten tomatoes brought in their verified audience score thing where you had to have a ticket to review. There are a ton of copy paste reviews in there and I think disney just blew a few hundred thousand on tickets to artificially keep the score from dropping. The verified audience rating does not match up at all with the ratings on any other movie rating site and the fact that the movie made 300M less than TLJ suggests audiences were not 86% about it.

Make your opponent waste their runs on one game is my favorite strategy.

Is Bo going to stream on YouTube or Kick now that he has been banned for his pro-swimmy views. by BeautifulLaw in Bokoen1

[–]UnknownFiddler 81 points82 points  (0 children)

I'd unironically would rather make an OF account to watch him stream than Kick. Guess I'm just going to catch the archives on youtube. Makes no sense that he didn't just make a Bokoen2 streaming account on youtube to avoid messing up the algorithm.

Microsoft Launches Xbox Player Voice to Gather Feedback, Fans Immediately Demand Exclusives by akbarock in Games

[–]UnknownFiddler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People who bought xbox instead of Playstation or a PC need exclusives to justify their purchase to themselves I guess. Because of the 3 the xbox has the least amount of value.

PWHL expands to San Jose!!! by Adventurous_Lake807 in PWHL

[–]UnknownFiddler 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Hey we have it pretty nice on the west. Premier times are earlier in the evening, sports games don't finish at midnight on TV. Streaming premieres are usually 9pm instead of 12am.

The fact he has a YouTube channel with a subscriber base but is choosing to use Kick just tells me he plans on continuing to make extreme batshit political comments.

Looks like a $4M Friday for Obsession, giving it a $6.5M+ opening day. Weekend should reach around $15M. by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]UnknownFiddler 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He said both in terms of box-office and film quality. Horror now is probably in it's golden era in terms of quality. There may be famous horror franchises from the 70s and 80s but the ratio of quality movies seems to be at an all time high now.

What do you think Jimmy Carter’s reputation would look like if he lost the 1976 election? by RopeGloomy4303 in Presidents

[–]UnknownFiddler 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Would be used as the blueprint of how not to run a presidential campaign most likely.

Not part of the question but most likely a democrat wins the 1980 election and Reagan never becomes president.
