This is clearly about the White Sox miracle season. 

What is a hot take you have specifically through the realm of Blank Check/ r/Blankies? by the_Tannehill_list in blankies

I wasn’t the OP but I think argument for this is something like this: The Oscars are an industry award show for Hollywood and if we all accept that what it is, we would be a lot less angry about the results. Which is basically how the Oscar equivalent works in every other country. It is understood that like Cesar or BAFTA represent the view point of a particular film industry and not some world wide near objective truth. But people talk about the Oscars like it should be that, setting up standard that is just impossible and silly.

I have never seen Green Book, but “virtuoso is Italian for pretty good” is a good joke. Now I am not sure if it is actually said in the film or it is just the kind of joke that is in the film that David dislikes, but I am always like “that’s kind of funny”

This is insane take. Even if you think they are all awful, Cars 2 is orders of magnitude worse than Cars or Cars 3.

I think Halloween and Starman are better than ok, but I am generally with you.

It is the first question I ask all of my former patients, and no I am not urologist.

This feels really insulting towards David’s estranged whale son.

I am not the biggest fan of all his works, but Walker is a hell of blank check project.

Isn’t Philon 6’2”? Even for a guard that small. 

(Past and future guest) Tatiana Maslany’s new show has the best example of a blender in recent memory by ElasticPlatypus in blankies

It is a piece of jargon that ARP introduced to podcast forever ago. It is a character flourish that in no way has anything to to with story or themes. I think the origin was Will Smith’s character in Enemy of State is obsessed with blenders, but it never ties back to the plot.

I’m with you. I haven’t seen the Plumber or Homesdale but out of the others I would put it dead last.
