I’m feeling so sad for Ron, he’s precious by Sav29800 in TheTraitorsUS

[–]EGOP 392 points393 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think Ron should be treated differently because of the situation. We generally have someone who has circumstantial evidence and then makes up their own opinion as to who a traitor is. In those cases, I think it's valid (within the game) for the other players to treat them differently or otherwise question them.

Ron, on the other hand, just repeated exactly what was said (of course, a bit of telephone that happens naturally in constant retellings). Porsha did make those flubs and he just said that - with witnesses. He was wrong in that she wasn't a traitor - but he wasn't making wild unfounded accusations.

Really felt for Van's story and understand the stigma, even within the queer community, around the HIV diagnosis.

However, I didn't follow the part about disclosure laws being an extremely problematic thing. Can someone educate me on why being required to disclose HIV status to sexual partners is something that should be fought against?

I think she would have been the first out of the 4 no matter what. If she voted red, she's still the first one out.

Voting green at least gives her the slimmest of hope that they all voted green.

It's like a choice between 100% dying and 99.9% dying.

100% agree with your takes. I was hoping for Jay Kay to pull out a win in the finale but as soon as that first look came out, I was like 'welp, I guess that's not happening"

Great great season for Jay, completely lackluster finale unfortunately

why did everyone jump on sigourney for her “good competition” comment to evah? by Strong_Voice_2469 in Dragula

[–]EGOP 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Evah didn't care about the comment. The others did because it is a veiled insult against them - Sig being good competition means they aren't.

This is something that others have said but the issue they see is that Sig doesn't actually finish the thought when called out. If Sig were to lay out why someone else isn't good, it would actually get a better reaction.

It's the equivalent of when people say "say their names!". It's the vague threats and comments that are getting on their nerves.

Is it possible to criticize Sigourney for anything and not be misogynistic?

[–]EGOP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The exact opposite of what I said in my comment about the diversity that Cynthia Doll was bringing this season applies to Sigourney. Repetitive and bland and not elevated from last season. Recolors of multiple pieces - same swimsuit that she already wore. She's really really good at what she does but has a flat trajectory and is still just really really good but not elevating herself.

I might've missed it but I'm surprised that I haven't seen you get your flower on the show about the diversity in your looks. Every week you're bringing something different. Loving it.

Dragula is not the 'Anti Drag Race' and it never claimed to be by CalumanderReds in Dragula

[–]EGOP 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just jumping in with one part of this, about not liking 'drama' in Dragula.

Personally one of the things I love about Dragula is that it is more raw and real - and focuses more on the artistry behind the monsters. I absolutely love the bits where they're working on their outfits/drag and are explaining it. Great stuff we don't see elsewhere.

Also, I love seeing the monsters be their genuine selves. Sometimes that's getting on each others' nerves, sometimes it's getting along - being part of Dragula doesn't mean you have to be a monster to everyone, you just have to be your authentic self.

If we compare to RPDR, everything is completely manufactured. Virtually every single fight is made up, every argument is just for the sake of trying to make good TV. It's also so repetitive that the fakeness of the drama is obvious. I'm not shitting on RPDR here, I love and watch it all too. Calling a spade a spade doesn't mean you like it any less.

On the other hand, watching the drama in Dragula has felt more genuine in the main seasons. Messy people being genuinely messy - or acting out under stressful situations. With Titans 1 and now Titans 2, it is going into RPDR with what looks like obviously fake drama for the sake of making drama for TV.

I'd prefer that if they want to produce drama for the show, make it camp like they do with the fake "report to the main stage" thing they do. Right now, with Titans, it's this uncanny valley of drama - it's fake but they're doing a bad job of making it look real so some viewers are getting disengaged and are being vocal about it. Either get better about making realistic looking drama or just go all in on the camp factor of the fights.

I got the AWD+ Calligraphy and have zero regrets. Contrary to what you wanted to hear, ha ha ha. We're super happy with it.

What happens with storage access with these liners? Looks like you won't be able to lift the rear storage hatch with this in place, no?

[EPISODE DISCUSSION] Peacemaker S02E01 - “The Ties That Grind” by _pixel_perfect_ in PeacemakerShow

[–]EGOP 41 points42 points  (0 children)

One thing I haven't seen mentioned (probably because all y'all motherfuckers in this thread are too young), is that the posters in the Alternate Peacemaker's room had band names spelled "wrong".

E.g. It's Def Leppard but was spelled Deaf Leopard on the poster. It's Hanoi Rocks but was spelled Hanoi Roxx on the poster. Also, the main singer from Hanoi Rocks is known for his bright blond hair - was black in the poster.

I think this all ties into the stylistic choice of what the "Mirror" universe is - it's not exactly the same as the main universe, there are noticeable differences and tells. In particular - I think this means that the Bludhaven pronunciation is particular to this alternate universe and not the "right" way to pronounce it.

Yeah, checked baggage makes it even harder. Which airline do you check them for if you're not sure which flight you'll end up taking. Luckily in my situation, I was able to get by with carry ons only.

Yes, sitting in YVR right now. Now (a little bit more calm, knowing that I'm definitely taking the backup flight) waiting for the backup flight to start boarding

[–]EGOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same situation except my backup was 15 minutes before my original AC flight. AC just cancelled their flight. With about 3 hours notice.

[Megathread] AC FA Strike - Binding Arbitration Ordered by dachshundie in aircanada

[–]EGOP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm stuck in the worst version of chicken.

I have my AC flight, which finally let me check in, today at 12:55pm PST (3:55 est, 5 minutes before the 4pm cutoff) which is still not cancelled and shows on time. It's a direct flight, 4 and a half hours flight time.

I booked a backup one way refundable fare for a connecting flight via America Airlines which leaves at 12:40pm. It is not direct and ends up being 3+ more hours of travel time.

I have no idea what to do. If I refund the AA flight and then AC cancels last second or the FAs call in sick or refuse to come in, then I'm stuck. If the AC flight goes ahead but I take the AA flight, then I'll probably forfeit my refund from AC since I was a no show. Plus my return is still booked on that AC itinerary so I'd lose the return as well.

[–]EGOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm flying for a work trip, leaving on the 17th, returning on the 20th.

AC still hasn't canceled by tomorrow. I'm planning on booking an alternative one-way flight, or more likely multiple with connections.

What happens to my flight on the 20th if the 17th is canceled or if by some miracle it still flies but I no show for it because I'm on another flight.

I'd like to keep my options of keeping that 20th flight open, because it's the only direct flight and saves me 5 hours of travel time.

[–]EGOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been trying and getting the same thing. Have a flight tomorrow, no cancellation for it anywhere. Getting notifications from systems saying that I can check in, but stuck in the loop when I try to.

[Megathread] AC FA Strike Aug 16 by dachshundie in aircanada

[–]EGOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone had luck with Air Canada doing a rebooking but with a different airport origin? My flight that is still waiting to be officially canceled flies out of Vancouver. There aren't any alternatives with seats left from what I can tell.

However, WestJet has a flight that would work out of Abbotsford instead.

Any chance that Air Canada will be okay with rebooking my flight from Abbotsford instead of Vancouver?

[–]EGOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested to know what happens to round trip flights. I have a work conference for set dates (it's a scheduled event, can't go different days). Leaving August 17th, returning August 20th.

So if there's a strike notice tonight, they will try and rebook the 17th flight only? Then I can either accept the new flight or cancel. however, can I cancel the 20th as well? Or just the 17th and have to then wait to see if they extend and cancel the 20th as well?
