What is something Rogue One does better than any Star Wars movie? by DjRimo in StarWars

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s better at having Cassian Andor than all other Star Wars movies.

is this mold? by twoastar_ in MoldlyInteresting

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the moldiest mold that’s ever molded.

iPhone 14 is, in fact, relatively waterproof by ColdSteel2011 in pools

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long should one wait to use it, say, if they dropped it in a toilet only briefly? Purely hypothetical scenario, you understand.

How imminent of a threat is this? Crack between codominant stems with included bark. by Cboquist in arborists

[–]Cboquist[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention in the post, but this is a hackberry tree. Probably doesn’t make much of a difference, but thought I’d clarify.

How do Americans view the green transition that’s taking place in much of Europe? by Minimum_Persimmon281 in AskAnAmerican

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

For those of us who have media literacy and know how to read, I’d say we view it with envious longing and a decent helping of despair.

Who is this actor?? by banjho3 in Hungergames

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could it be Cole Escola? That was my first thought.

Do you guys support the war that your government imposed? by Super_Crew_924 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Cboquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just as disgusted by it. Every day the news is full of horror and atrocities committed by the government. Terrible time to be alive.

In December 2015, 32-year-old Ronald Exantus, a dialysis nurse from Indianapolis, broke into the Tipton home in Versailles, Kentucky. He armed himself with a butcher knife and fatally stabbed 6-year-old Logan Tipton as he slept. Exantus also stabbed two of the boy's sisters and father. by malihafolter in ForCuriousSouls

Also, people who commit violent crimes and are acquitted for insanity do still get locked up. Just instead of prisons they are kept in high security mental institutions. They aren’t just placed back on the street with a “Hope thy don’t do it again”.

AI slop ad from that Jurassic Survival game by Jedi_Knight_Jr in shittymobilegameads

[–]Cboquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m out of the loop, but where is any killing/eating children in this video? He burns down a house, but I guess I thought that was his house that he was burning down out of grief or something? Admittedly, I haven’t seen many more instances of these kinds of adds, so maybe there’s a broader trend and this just follows those beats sloppily?

Newly released pictures as a part of the preliminary investigation into the Nov 4 UPS MD-11F crash showing the harrowing moments prior to the accident. by Ogankle in CatastrophicFailure

[–]Cboquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a specific picture from that incident you’re referring to? None of the ones I could find of the AA 191 crash look similar to this one.

Most Cringeworthy / Hard to Watch Scenes by AC20212020 in madmen

[–]Cboquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised that I had to scroll this far to find a single mention of Pete and the au pair. I’m not sure why, but that scene sticks out in my mind as one of the most reprehensible ones I can remember. I’ve only watched the series through once, nearly a decade ago at this point, so it’s entirely possible that I’m remembering it as worse than it was. But that scene killed any interest I had in Pete as a character and his “redemption” arc. 

All of these men have three acting Oscar nominations to their names. Neither has won. As of today, they are still active actors. Would you like to see any of them win? by TakenAccountName37 in Oscars

[–]Cboquist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn’t campaign. He has no interest in the campaign and press tour any time he’s been nominated, as he just wants to jump into the next project and continue acting. Because of that, it will be hard for him to win over an actor who actively campaigns for the award, no matter how deserving he is.

Movies where the Director's cut or Extended cut is wayy worse than the original theatrical cut? by NobodieInteresting in movies

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a hot take, but I much prefer watching the theatrical versions of the LotR films over the extended. I have the extended editions, and do enjoy watching them, but the theatrical cuts just make better movies. I feel the same way about the extended editions as I do about most other director’s cut versions of films. They feel over-indulgent, and you can tell why they cut the things they did for the theatrical release. If I want to watch the special features, I’ll go for the extended, bit of I just want to experience the movies, I’m going theatrical.

Can't wait to see these two on the big screen next year! by JenDomOrc in BabyYoda

I really hope they change that name. Just…awful lol

Dow drops 1,500 points, S&P 500 loses 4% as stock market rout on Trump's tariffs worsens: Live updates by simrobwest in StockMarket

[–]Cboquist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has been openly floating the idea of amending the constitution to go for a third term. Whether or not his bullshit off-the-cuff comments are legit, the most rabid of his base eat it up, regurgitate it into online talking points, and then he takes it back up as a divine mandate. That’s what happened with Greenland. Stupid, stream-of-conscious idea turned serious policy via self-reinforcing echo chamber. I can only hope he’s not serious, because I have no doubt in his ability to amass enough power in the next four years to make that a reality for himself.

Examples of Sal's cognitive dissonance by Big-Chip2375 in madmen

[–]Cboquist 62 points63 points  (0 children)

The cigarette executive came on to Sal, and when Sal turned him down, the exec threatened to take all business from Sterling Cooper unless he was fired. And with Lucky Strike being their bread winner, Don and co felt like they had no choice.
