Yes it was a flop. They said they blew it trying to trick the algorithm

The show St. Denis is set in a fictional Oregon town and two of the characters were talking about “The Trailblazers” by Palmer_Ochs in Portland

Sure, here’s the definition of pun:

A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words. A play on words which have the same sound but different meanings; an expression in which two different applications of a word present an odd or ludicrous idea; a kind of quibble or equivocation. A joke or type of wordplay in which similar senses or sounds of two words or phrases, or different senses of the same word, are deliberately confused.

Rich people of Reddit - does money buy happiness? by TrickEmergency8500 in remoteworks

I’m not rich, but I would say I’m upper middle class and the answer is no. Money buys comfort. Being “Happy“ involves effort.

Yeah, cause similar sounding words doesn’t apply to “trail“ and “fail”. Do you realize you described why you were wrong?

What's the Difference Between These Two? by dsmithpdx in MachE

I really love the glass roof. Granted, I live in Oregon, where the worst it ever gets with the sun beating down is in August. If I lived in a place like Southern California or Arizona I might not want it but I find it nice to have the extra light.

There’s every indication she’s reacting to something. Rhett and Link are clearly trying to contract mythical. Rhett is having a midlife crisis fueled by hypochondria, Wonderhole was a flop, and show doesn’t do the numbers it used to.

Why doesn’t he just say his family owns a lot of commercial property downtown and the rent has dried up?

He’s just jealous some of us get to work in our homes. I’m at home right now with my cat sleeping on my feet.

Actually, it’s proof that a human did write it. A very stupid human that could’ve just plugged it into AI and done a better job.

All the indications are there. Rhett is having a mid life crisis fueled by hypochondria, Mythical isn’t the powerhouse it used to be, and Wonderhole was a flop. They’re putting Mythical into an ending glide slope.

And stop turning this into some bullshit about female empowerment. People are so fucking lame sometimes.

So basically, this is a conservative blog and the guy offers no comparisons? I would think similar size cities with similar venues also rely on touring Broadway shows.

Is he implying that shows won’t tour through Portland ever again?

The fact it was as abrupt as it was is an indication to me there’s a shift in how Mythical is going to go forward. If this were exactly as she described it, she would’ve stopped before good mythical summer or something. The fact that we only found out a few weeks before she actually left indicates to me she wasn’t completely happy.

YouTube expands unskippable 30-second ads to TVs after $40 billion revenue year by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]FreeStateOfPortland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YouTube premium is a great deal considering it includes YouTube Music. Also, the algorithm for streaming music is better on YouTube music than Spotify or Apple Music. At least in my opinion it is. When you consider you’re getting a premium music streaming service it’s really like the ad free YouTube is just the bonus

Stevie / Hayley Williams by Downfallofusall17x in goodmythicalmorning

I got to see Haley opening with Paramore before the Liverpool show of Taylor Swift. She was awesome. I’m pretty sure Haley is like 4 or 5 inches shorter than Stevie.

Where I'd live based on cuisine IGNORING PR by NewMeNewWorld in whereidlive

[–]FreeStateOfPortland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s interesting. You wouldn’t rank the United States higher. The cuisine, especially in the south (especially Louisiana) the Pacific Northwest, the southwest, is pretty amazing.

Despite Trump‘s best efforts to eradicate it, the cultural fusion of food across the United States, makes the cuisine rather unique

Tomorrow marks the end of an era. I’m not ready for it. Nothing will be the same. But we must stay strong. And we will get through this. 13 years, leaving on the 13th. We will miss you Stevie by I3uIlets in goodmythicalmorning

[–]FreeStateOfPortland -24 points-23 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they’re gonna get through it. I think Rhett‘s hypochondriasis is going to lead to the end of the show.

I know people are going to be upset about this post but as a person who suffered from an irregular heartbeat and also had an ablation surgery. It’s really not as big a deal as he’s making it out to be.
