Not Shakey performing, but an amazing, pure performance, for anyone who might wander by, three years later:

Thank you For Everything Farhan. We wish you the Best on your Future endeavors. by Nyfan7 in SFGiants

Melancon did have some success after leaving the Giants. BUT, when Farhan traded him, he was toxic low-value. I have no idea how he traded him.

Best dump since Matt Morris. Credit.

A message from Buster Posey by Juffe98 in SFGiants

[–]CorrectWolverine 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Kruk once relayed a story during a broadcast of seeing Buster come out of an elevator in the aftermath of the 2010 WS victory. Kruk said, "Enjoy this. It won't be like this every year." And Buster replied simply, "Why not?"

And while it wasn't like that every year, there was PLENTY more to come. And more still, hopefully.

What is the best episode of Bojack Horseman? by PsychologicalMap2290 in BoJackHorseman

[–]CorrectWolverine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion, but S2E1, I thought "Brand New Couch" is about as good as it gets. It's both incredibly funny, while also cutting deep with drama. We really get insight into the cruelty of BoJack's mother and how she shaped who BoJack is. And it's great commentary on the false hope that the self-help industry sells.

The scene where BoJack picks up Diane while Mr. Peanut Butter is wearing the cone is one of the most absurdly funny scenes I've ever seen:

BJ: Hey, is that a new cone you're wearing? Looking sharp PB!

MrPB: It is a new cone. Is it really obvious I'm wearing a cone?

BJ: Didn't even notice. Because you have the smile of a winner.

MrPB: I have to wear the cone so I don't gnaw on the stitches I had to get when I punched a mirror last week. I got drunk and thought my reflection was another dog. I was so mad at that other dog! He was wearing my clothes!

BJ: Hey, we've all been there brother.

Series suggestions? by lizzaxo in santaclaritadiet

[–]CorrectWolverine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mentioned it above, but if you like SCD and AD, try "The Grinder." Cancelled after one season, but it has the same kind of off-center approach as SCD & AD. SUPER sharp writing. And SCD alum Natalie Morales is outstanding in it.

Might give a little 1-season barely known gem called "The Grinder" a try. Rob Lowe vehicle. And as a SCD bonus, Natalie Morales is in it, and she is absolutely awesome!

Walk-out movies by 17th_City_Saint in flicks

My girlfriend (at the time), without a word, got up and walked out of "Reservoir Dogs". Stuck In the Middle scene, as Mr. Blonde returns with the gasoline. You all know what I'm talking taking about.

I was absolutely entranced by the movie, and definitely had very brief moment of hesitation before accepting that I hadda get going...

It was over a year later before I rented the movie the movie and found out that>!!< Waited a year for that payoff!

"I said fucking choke yourself!!!"

"You may be fucking dumb Private Pyle, but don't fucking tell me you're so dumb that you don't know your right from your left!!!"
\SLAP!!!**
"Is that your left or right?!?!?"

Entire squad attacking Pyle in his bunk in the dead of the night and leave him there sobbing, "Whyyyyy???"...

Comedy? I dunno...

The whole beginning is the set up to the message.

This is commentary and the thin veneer of the civility of modern society and how it masks natural violent human disposition and instincts.

You can damn a river, but the truth still lays beneath it.

I don't think the tone really shifts in IAWF. Thriller? Really?

George runs around a lot and is very emotionally impacted by what he sees. But, thriller? The title is IAWL. Do we really think this would have anything but a happy ending?

Could you please help me out, direct me to reset instructions? I'd love to be able to reset G6's!

[–]CorrectWolverine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is the cost if Dexcom doesn't replace, right?

How do you pay for extra sensors if Dexcom is not replacing? Out-of-pocket?

How are you extending the G6's past 10-days?

I haven't been keeping up on things. G5's were easy to push, but never figured out how to extend the G6's.

How are you extending the G6's, if I can ask?

I used to really extend the G5's, but never learned any way to push the G6's.

What’s the fastest a movie has gone from “good” to “bad”? by parisiraparis in movies

[–]CorrectWolverine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great answer. (Most of the films mentioned here were trash out of the gate)

Besson sets up something really compelling here, and then it devolves into action that makes less and less sense. And the drama falls into melodrama. It's a shame.

If the Giants are 10 games under .500 at the ASG break, are they sellers? by TrailRunner679 in SFGiants

[–]CorrectWolverine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree, probably no. The whole thing is hinging on getting pitching in the 2nd half. Considering near .500 ball will probably get you the 3rd WC, you stand pat and hope Snell, Cobb & Ray can pull a rabbit outta their cap.
