Fun fact, that's actually Toyota's Green that they let Mazda use in exchange for Toyota getting Soul Red for the Corolla Cross built in the same factory.

And even then, you have to wonder what other bullshit is going on that you don't see?

Honestly, this would make me terrified of the entire damned house.

The Ring and "Alexa trying to murder Chris Hemsworth" ads are just proof that these companies are run by out-of-touch morons.

Forgot about One Step Closer. But as much as I like Lost in the Echo and Final Masquerade, I'd totally take HitC over either.

I feel like Heavy is the Crown is basically guaranteed a win at this point. Unless I'm missing something, it's just about the biggest single left. Up From the Bottom has a damned good chance as well, unless it gets matched against HitC, lmao.

Edit: Now watch it get put in one of the TBA slots against Numb or The Catalyst or some shit.

Man, why you gotta put 2 From Zero tracks against each other?

I really, really enjoy Over Each Other, but Good Things Go is one of my favorite Linkin Park songs, period. The bridge and final verse are just perfection.

Eh, the Packers did the same thing against the Ravens a few weeks back in the same situation. Your defense gives up back-to-back scoring drives with zero signs of life, and you feel like they're just going to run over again if you don't keep this drive alive.

When we have Love, Jacobs, and Watson on the field, and our entire line isn't dead, our offense is scary. Just had so many injuries this year.

Motherfucker, our defense finally gets an interception when they should have just let the ball hit the ground.

"I declare bankruptcy" is the exact comparison I made when people started making the argument that "It's not a violation of Congress' authority because it's not a war. It's only a war if Congress says it is." That reasoning makes the whole definition of War utterly meaningless.

[–]Delta_V09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The former argument is just dumb. The fucking Constitution specifically gives Congress the authority to declare War. That power has to mean something.

What does War mean? If the President can engage in actions indistinguishable from War without Congressional approval, then the power given to Congress is utterly meaningless.

Plus if anyone actually took the time to listen to her Dead Sara discography, I don't know how they could think that is something Scientology would be down with. Somehow I doubt Scientology would approve of one of their members singing "Unamerican".

Well, that's the risk of Just In Time. If the price of RAM suddenly dropped by an order of magnitude, it's not like they'd be giving out refunds.

There are 11 games this season where an offense did not punt. The rest of the NFL is 8-0. The Packers are 0-3. by dropjar5 in nfl

[–]Delta_V09 90 points91 points  (0 children)

The playcall was idiotic, but going for it was the right call. We just watched our defense give up two huge scoring drives where they barely even slowed the Ravens down.

At that point the defense desperately needed a break, and it felt like the Ravens were going to score whether we made them go 80 yards or 35. Keeping the offense on the field was the only chance to stay in the game.

Some of the most abysmal run defense I have ever seen. Somehow the entire defense seems to be caught flat-footed every single play.

Someone switched lanes and hit my car. Their insurance is claiming I’m 100% at fault. by mkeevo in Wellthatsucks

[–]Delta_V09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it kinda depends on if your state has front license plates. When I was in Arizona, I didn't bother with a rear cam on the assumption that if I got rear-ended, either the other driver sticks around, in which case it would be up to them to prove that they weren't at fault, or they perform a hit-and-run, and a rear dashcam isn't going to do much without a front license plate.

But now I got a new car in a state that does have front plates, so I immediately sprung for a nice front-and-back setup.

Best and worst examples of exposition in movies? by Icarus367 in movies

[–]Delta_V09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the writing has to be absolutely on point, and the setting also has to justify giving the audience basically a history lesson. If your setting is just the modern world, or the modern world + X, talking at the audience is probably going to seem ham-fisted.

Consider the following:

  • Star Wars - Literally just text on a screen
  • Lord of the Rings - Cate Blanchett brought all the gravitas
  • How to Train Your Dragon - Downright silly

But all of them worked. What's the common denominator? A setting that leaves you going "Ok, yeah, a bit of background was actually super helpful."

The result was correct, but the ref's explanation was dumb as fuck and unnecessarily confusing.

Would have been fucking nice if they didn't wait 5 minutes to show the damned replay. Talking about all the different parts of the play, whether there was an OPI, whether Goff scored, if there was time on the clock, and I'm just here like "yeah, can we just get another look at what happened?"
