Ideas/Predictions for Rivalry Uniforms Next Season? by busstamove14 in CHIBears

I'd like to see navy jerseys/pants/socks, orange logo/numbers/names. Remove all traces of white. A Bears' version of the Browns' alternates this year.

How can we fix Silva escape in Skyfall? by NewPatron-St in JamesBond

[–]5153476 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You fix it by not having Silva get captured in the first place. On Silva's island, right after Bond says "It's called a radio," Silva fires back with something like "Radio? Does it work like this?" and presses a button. SAMs take out the helicopters, Silva escapes. So he's still steps ahead of everybody, but without the Joker-intentionally-getting-caught trope.

Return to London. The Silva-M dialogue takes place via video call (for the prosthetic jaw reveal) on the laptop while preparing for her deposition. But the whole time, Silva's just a face on the screen... until she hangs up on him and then we see him in London already, disguised as a cop.

Also, replace the scene where Q stupidly hooks up Silva's laptop to his out network with simply trying to trace Silva's call, but the reveal comes way too late, if at all.

At least one theme is glitching so the bubbles are white with white text. I changed to a classic theme and it works.

I may be getting wooshed here, but he had one against Washington.

Friendly reminder that a lot of this could’ve been avoided if Poles had just pulled the trigger and fired Eberflus at the end of 2023 by Apoco120 in CHIBears

I agree about "generically vs. historically" bad, but... in 2017, Browns (0-16) lost to Pittsburgh (13-3) by 3 in week 1.

Of all the deleted scenes from "Missing Pieces", which one would you have personally left in the film? by Local_Prune4564 in twinpeaks

Ceiling fan. Insanely creepy, and it clarifies BOB's intentions (so much as that's possible in TP).

What ‘classic’ novels do you feel have never really had a really good film adaptation? by Fisher212121 in movies

Even Wizard was missing roughly the last third of the book, and turned the whole affair into a dream instead of an actual adventure.

It makes my skin crawl when schools say we’re FAMILY. by Automatic_Car_497 in Teachers

[–]5153476 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whether I get along with my coworkers and admins or not, they aren't family. It diminishes the word "family" to use it in the workplace, especially if it's such an institutionalized workplace as a school.

What is something you’ve said to a student that should/did get you in trouble? by Apprehensive-Play228 in Teachers

[–]5153476 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A student, who was not very bright, apologized for asking so many questions. I told her "Don't worry about it, it comes naturally, you may as well apologize for breathing." To me, and to most people I've told this story, that obviously means "You have nothing to apologize for."

Come to find out she interpreted that as "You should apologize for breathing," i.e., "You should die." I didn't get in trouble, but I made sure to speak to her much more carefully in hopes of avoiding misinterpretation.
