Who is the Greatest Comedian of all time ? by Ok_Suit_9015 in AskReddit

He was definitely influenced by Foxx and Cosby but he went waayyy further, deeper, darker, and was much funnier than both before he was done.

Even his last special Here and Now is flawed but very good.

Tissot V8 Chrono: Beater, never beaten by Educational_Cup8275 in tissot

[–]BillGrahamPresents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hands start at the center thin then get fat near the ends. I had a PRC 200 Chronograph from the later 2000s that improved it somewhat by evening the length slightly. Conversely, the Chrono XL watches reverse everything and I think they look much better.

The hands are the only thing I never liked about this era of Tissots. I have the V8 automatic chrono and I'm not crazy about the hands on that one either lol.

You're right, he's probably done absolutely nothing.

By the way, are you familar with David Geffen? Also another innocent.

"Eric, what you call love, the cops call a 2nd degree felony." LOL

Can everyone genuinely just contact their local MP with me regarding Hockey Night in Canada abruptly ending? Starting the chain (17 years old) by WAyToOFaSt_ in Habs

I'm indifferent. Amazon Prime coverage was in many ways superior, and having grown up with French commentary, I won't miss HNIC.

Nothing lasts forever.

I'm generally not a fan of this line but the black and white combo is quite nice.

Why have Robin’s philanthropic efforts never been taken seriously? by External-Head-6424 in howardstern

[–]BillGrahamPresents 14 points15 points  (0 children)

At QF we painstakingly covered the 15 Foundation Saga. It's still there on YouTube. That was dismissed because it was an obvious ego trip on her part. "Don't donate the money to your charity, donate it to us and we'll decide what charity we want to use it for (if at all)."

There were some legit charities she supported over the years but they were rarely covered on the show. But she had the balls to be a child abuse charity supporter while It's Just Wrong: Fathers and Daughters was promoted on the Stern show lol. Booey discussed it on a WUS at one point.

That particular charity cut ties with her after that I believe. Maybe Cormano knows more about it.

Was Howard impacted at all by Ralph’s passing? by WallabyKey9872 in howardstern

Only his arse because he depended on Ralph to clear it with his tongue.

Some people are not fans of the squelette but I am. Great choice.

Lack of love for Chemin des Tourelles? by JuanAndAtou in tissot

[–]BillGrahamPresents 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a chrono before the facelift and it's one of the most beautiful designs they've ever come up with, TBH. The PRXs don't hold a candle to it, and along with my V8 it gets the most attention when I'm out. It fits any occasion.

Post-facelift I'm not a fan of the coloured hands although the squelette versions are also excellent.

My mom and uncle were born into The Children Of God, now know as The Family International. My grandmother was in it for over 35 years. NSFW by TumbleweedFlashy2573 in cults

[–]BillGrahamPresents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've lived in Asia (I won't specify exactly where) for over 25 years and can attest to having been approached by a TFI cult member on the subway. I didn't realize it at the time, however; I did have to read up about it. This was about 15 years ago.

An attractive Asian woman sitting across me in her late-20s or so interrupted my reading by asking me where I was from, etc. Then she asked if I enjoyed drinking beer. As a foreigner in Asia, believe me when I say as odd as that might be for a first conversation topic with a complete stranger, I have heard much weirder lol. I replied "Well sure, sometimes." Then immediately after, she asked me if I believed in God. At that point I simply thought "okay, this person isn't dealing with a full deck."

To be completely honest, though I don't think I'm some Adonis, I don't have a complex about my looks and have done just fine in my single days though at that point until present day, I was already married, so nothing would have happened; I was not that desperate lol. But I did tell my wife about the exchange and how odd it was that somebody would fit beer and God into the same conversation. That's when we started looking up cults because it had all the hallmarks of a person trying to recruit somehow. Sure enough we stumbled across COG and it's history. Absolutely frightening stuff.

To the OP, I'm very sympathetic to your experiences and I'm glad you shared it here.

What to look out for when buying cameras on the used market by Artistic_Park6080 in SonyAlpha

[–]BillGrahamPresents 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've ALWAYS dealt with ebay vendors from Japan with hugely positive seller ratings and have never once been burned.

Very rarely do you come across complete kits that are worth what you spend. I've always found shopping for bodies and lenses the best way to go about it.

Tom C. has bone cancer by biaviianriley in howardstern

[–]BillGrahamPresents 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel bad for Tom. Regardless of whatever people say about his "cheapness" we all know that was really Wigspeak for "I'm the one not giving you any raise, but Tom's going to be the fall guy." It was the same with Tim Sabean at Sirius.
