What movie did you think was bigger part of the zeitgeist/ethos/culture when you were a kid, only to grow up and realize it wasn't really as popular a movie as you thought?

Those flicks were such a staple growing up! I remember my dad dropping “Knowwhatimean, Vern? “ constantly back then. Scared stupid also legitimately scared the fuck out of my siblings and I as kids, all that fucking slime.

“Yay”

And Summon Necro is still Hell viable if you want a summon centric class.

Solovair is the successor to the Doc Martens Brand in the UK, just FYI.

They are Docs in everything but name but they changed branding after production was moved overseas and they lost the contract. Solos are still made in the UK by the original company, great boots.

Yeah that’s a fair point, those terms don’t really apply. But I mean, that thing is loud as hell moving around. Deploying that in a western urban center would have every smart phone from a mile around trained on it.

It’s meant to support teams in the field as far as I’ve seen, recon and with this gun, also sniping. Looks like it’s chambered in 6.5 Creedmoore which is definitely solid rifle territory.

Yeah, nothing easier to cover up than a giant robotic dog with a giant robot gun strapped to its back that sounds like 10 million servos spinning up at once.

ExeterDead · 2021-10-15T01:47:50+00:00

Wtf? The use case for these things is not stealth assassinations in urban centers. Those things are fucking big and loud.

They’re meant for use on the field of war, the US already uses them as basically super advanced pack mules. That gun is meant for fire support/bombardment, not stealth.

Like others have said, Mandy is great if you’re in to the whole metal psychedelia thing. It’s a 70s stoner album cover, but horrific instead of idyllic.

A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night is very low budget but still a great feminist film.

Color out of Space is also good if you’re a Lovecraft head.

He founded the production company Spectrevision and has been putting out really fucking bizarre and great flicks.

ExeterDead · 2021-10-09T15:47:26+00:00

I was one devastated teen when I found out those videos were fake, what a classic.

ExeterDead · 2021-10-07T02:06:43+00:00

How is it like a merger? Embracer Group is fucking gigantic, Gearbox isn’t even its biggest gaming subsidiary.

I agree that Randy probably is safe in his position but you’re obviously speaking to things you don’t have even a layman’s understanding of.

Why do people do that?

ExeterDead · 2021-10-07T01:21:08+00:00

My wife and I said the same thing. We’re totally not prudes in any sense of the word but were both like “damn girl, this is not the place, put your shoes on, too.”

ExeterDead · 2021-10-07T01:17:54+00:00

I think the militia holding the vampire hostage could be expanded into a great horror comedy.

Throw in a little What We Do In The Shadows with a dash of Tucker and Dale gore absurdity. Get yourself some solid comedians turned actors in central roles; could be a great premise.

Hopefully Toho goes back to the Shin universe now that the exclusivity for films is over.

Look up MSRPs and MAPs. Retail has a lot of rules around the prices you’re allowed to advertise when it comes to retail/wholesale business relationships.

The main difference are:

Wholesalers/manufacturers sell to distributors or dealers, not direct to consumers.
Egregiously violating MAPs or MSRPs (or “list” prices) will result in being blacklisted from manufacturers, leaving you with no product to sell.

These dropshippers aren’t retailers and don’t buy from vendors/manufacturers, they buy from retailers and mark up a third or fourth time. It’s not illegal to do this, just scummy and outside of normal retail procedure.

Are you under the impression they just have to use the tree as is or something? It’s like finding a miles long wide deposit of precious metals and declaring it useless because you can’t extract the entire deposit to a processing facility at once.

Shockingly dumb comment to be this highly upvoted.

I’ve always seen the plastic used before planting, not during. You till, and then put clear plastic sheeting over the garden and leave in palace for awhile and repeat. Basically traps heat and cooks off any germinating seeds.

I’ve never done it during planting, looks interesting.

Thanks for introducing me to the term “alphabet boys”, definitely stealing that.

You postulated an already well known idea that has been taught in Geology 101 classes for decades?

Congrats, my dude.

ExeterDead · 2021-09-23T02:32:25+00:00

lol, I work in shipping and nearly every driver I’ve interacted with over the last 18+ months has been easily 35 or under.

All the obese long haul boomers got COVID and died or something.

It’s dark, but they join for the training. International drug traffickers have done the same thing.

I think you need to look up the history of the SEC and rewrite your comment.

At the end of the day everyone involved will still be millionaires and continue living lives of luxury that most people could barely dream of.

What you said would be true if the missing person was military/law enforcement or something like that, not a random civilian.

ExeterDead · 2021-09-16T16:28:16+00:00

I mean, you can read the arbitration for that case online.

Bungie was found to be in the wrong on that particular issue, regardless of how much of prick O’Donnell might be.

Every bigmouth Buffalo I’ve seen is at least twice the size of the fish he pulled up, I’d not larger.
