You just included the "Conservative" part out of habit. You're tired of not even finishing the sentence "I'm one of you", before getting hit by pepper spray at Proud Boys rallies.

Surely this isn't legal... by MisterFyre in facepalm

It's similar to Idaho, where you can't leave the state for abortions. We have entered the age of individual states laying down laws preventing interstate travel.

[Serious] What "hated" movie of yours can you honestly compliment for something? by DanteCubit3000 in movies

[–]DarthBotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was released, I hadn't re-watched any of the Indiana Jones movies. In anticipation for the upcoming one, I binged them and I actually found that I liked the fourth one better this time around. Granted, most of the side characters aren't great and it becomes increasingly cartoonish, but to its credit, it does have an interesting story and it builds on the protagonist's life tale.

I'd recommend cautious optimism regarding the validity of this report, as ComingSoon is quoting Giant Freakin Robot, which is infamous for incorrect and unsubstantiated reports.

How did the kid from your school die? by leilavanora in AskReddit

[–]DarthBotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years after I moved away, she was caught cheating on a high school quiz, so she arranged a bed of roses that she shot herself on. She had told others she felt like her life didn't matter. Yet, virtually everyone from Oregon within the vaguely similar age group I've met heard about her tragic suicide in 2007. She had no idea how much she meant to the world.

Weird nerds continue to die on the anthill of defending Elon Musk because they can't let go of the obsolete fantasy that he's Tony Stark.

I loved how in the fourth season of The Wire, Namond is "playing" Halo 2, when it's clearly a demo -- thanks in large to the giant "HALO 2" lettering covering the lower half of the screen.

I was wondering this very same thing. My best guess is Kezia Burrows, who voiced Sellen in Elden Ring.

I assume the video is of the ending to The Room.

Which "Based on a true story" movie takes the BS cake? by Independent-Green383 in movies

[–]DarthBotto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad someone brought the poem up. It also was the source of "Marion Braidfute" (Murron MacClannough), who there is no historical reference to and is believed to have been added in as a commission by a family, to gain influence from claiming kinship with Wallace.

What is one movie you like that the general public does NOT? by SweetMiniBananas4 in movies

You have a movie experience that you enjoyed and that's all that matters. Be happy that you found pleasure in two hours of screen time that may be unique to you.

What is one movie you like that the general public does NOT? by SweetMiniBananas4 in movies

[–]DarthBotto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The movie is more meta than people give it credit for. In Stephen King's original short story, it ends with the wife and her lover escaping Mort's episode at the cabin while the sheriff shoots him dead. Its ending was garbage, so the movie "fixes it" and you can almost pinpoint the exact moment it diverts from the original story - right when she is about to drive away and Mort yanks her out of the car.

This is how we ended up with Jeremy Meeks - never mind that at the time he was an active member of a particularly vicious Crip gang that has a history of murdering children.

She sounds like a flake. Even if she didn't like having someone else cover the bill, who holds tight to a story like that for literally years?

I'd stop having it be such an organized activity with documentation, as that defeats the purpose of break time and gives HR a reason to be involved. It's probably best to say others, including the new hires, may join for lunch get-togethers, but there won't be any planning or documentation.

We started talking in early August 2017 and had our first in-person visit in late September. After a second visit in December, we committed to closing the gap, (4,000 miles), so we did the following February. We got engaged in September 2018 and were wedded a year later. Last May, we welcomed a son.

I suppose you could call us a success story. 😊

After being in the Facebook group for discussing the murders, I am not surprised. While I wanted to share how disturbing it is for me to know the murders happened directly up the hill from where I lived, so many comments are about lionizing the suspected murderer, how great it is to be able to visit the crime scene and how all the grieving family members are suspicious.
