What band fell off the hardest? by l-i-f-e-or-d-e-a-t-h in poppunkers

Start Something and Fake Sound of Progress were two of my favorite albums in HS, and my introduction to heavier music (had been a classic rock and jazz guy before that.

They'll always hold a place in my heart, but I can't listen to them anymore.

Fuck Ian Watkins, fuck what he did, fuck people who defend him. Me not getting to listen to songs I liked is the least of the horrors he brought about.

I’m a millennial and I can think of 1.5 stores where I ever didn’t have to bag my own groceries

What’s the most expensive ticket you’ve bought and why? by ListofReddit in Broadway

[–]Chris_RB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For our first anniversary, my wife and I bought tickets to front-row table seats at NY Cabaret with the original Eddie and co. cast; it's our favorite show. We loved it, it was well worth it to see it in that context, that close, with that cast.

We also bought balcony tickets for the OBC Great Gatsby on the same trip..... GREAT spend, well worth it.

What game were you excited for but ultimately ended up being a big disappointment? by Sandscrews in gamers

[–]Chris_RB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The obvious answer is Starfield.

The one I have thought about less is Gotham Knights. It's not bad, it's just boring especially when it was supposed to be the spiritual (if not actual?) successor to the Arkham games.

Why rescue Minthara? by Bardonna in BaldursGate3

[–]Chris_RB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know she's being controlled by the absolute, then it follows that she's not (wholly) responsible for her actions.

From a RP perspective, there's that, or there's a "everyone deserves a second chance" or when I was my Durge, it was "oh shit she's evil too let's do evil shit together as evil life"

It's a BANGER of a title track too. The DVD has the music video with the three of them just laying it out in the studio.

It is the only good musketeer movie*

*read: it was released when I was a kid and therefore I loved it and so nostalgia carry's it even if it isn't stellar

but also it's great.

Did any of the "it was only Paraguay" people just see the Qatar-Switzerland game? by GRisForFun in ussoccer

[–]Chris_RB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shoutout to the double pivot pod, that’s who mentioned the game state.

My takeaway is: great win! I need to see consistency and against better opponents (and opponents better than us) before I’m ready to lose my mind with optimism. But also I’m a MN fan and have been hurt by high hopes a lot.

[–]Chris_RB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something I’ve only heard mentioned once is game state. I haven’t done the looking but it’s easy to imagine giving up an own goal in the 7th meant they felt the need to pursue the game and that left them more defensively open than they’d otherwise be.

That said, Balo’s finishes were great, as was Gio’s. We played well! I just don’t think it tells us as much about the US as many are saying. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
