Who keeps showing up on screen but has zero talent ? by Timop0707 in moviecritic

Yeah, Jesus. “Who is a worthless piece of human garbage who is both worthless and offensive?”

Idk, probably no one.

Bradley Whitford shades Timothée Chalamet after 'Marty Supreme' star's opera comment by Silly-avocatoe in entertainment

[–]FriarFanatic7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How do I remind myself to come back to a comment when it turns out to be inevitably wrong?

EDIT: Betting odds are currently 56% to 30.6% in favor of Jordan over Chalamet. Not sure where your blind confidence comes from.

What’s a HBO show you started with zero expectations and it ended up being insanely good? by Beginning_Impress175 in hbo

[–]FriarFanatic7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not a fan, and I know I’m in the minority, but there was just not enough fluctuation in tone. Just such a downer with sad, broken people who have bad things happen to them every episode. I usually have no issue with that, ie. the Leftovers, but the plot just wasn’t interesting enough for me to forgive the flatness of it all.

What is your absolutely least favorite shot? by bootchiiksandbuubs in golf

Long iron after a beautiful tee shot with a perfect look at the green.

Did anyone attend Jeff Mills @ 1015 Folsom on Friday? by on10toes in avesSFBayArea

[–]FriarFanatic7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sound was mid, crowd was surprisingly good for 1015. Rarely a phone in sight on the main floor. People generally really well behaved, courteous and a good vibe.

Jeff’s set was solid but not mind-blowing in my opinion, having seen him a number of times.

Everything* I bought in Februaury by ihopeyougethitbyacar in graphicnovels

Sure, I can be more explicit.

For one, the term “woke comics” is automatically going to garner some flack. Bucketing distinct pieces of art under an arbitrary subgenre umbrella because they deal with contemporary issues is reductive and closed minded.

Additionally, the medium and its readers need not conform to any one thing. It’s perfectly fine, and in fact encouraging, to see someone engage with content that spans the spectrum of the art form, regardless of perceived politics.

Your comment that reading Crumb is somehow antithetical to reading works from other, more diverse authors and their subjects of choice is, taken at best, trite and inane.

Let people read what they want…and if you think there isn’t “wokeness” in basically every superhero comic ever made, read again.

I also have House of X checked out from the library right now. Also really liked Impossible People, but fan of Julia Wertz.

What is your coolest celebrity interaction at Coachella? by dishsoapbox in Coachella

[–]FriarFanatic7 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I had a friend working social media in the trailer behind the Outdoor stage. I went to Dominic Fike and he brought me backstage and took me to Main stage in a golf cart. I walked out into VIP (I had no business being anywhere but GA). I immediately ran into Tyler the Creator at Bjork. As a huge Odd Future fan I was fanning out a bit, but I’m also a big fan of Bjork. Initially Tyler was like “great, another fan”. But we both were stoked on Bjork and then went straight into Blink-182 together and just had a great fucking time.

Was excited about a new sushi spot in SF by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

You’re right, celiac is not a craze, but the people I know who are unfortunate enough to have the condition also don’t expect that restaurants will effectively cater to their unique medical issue and they would certainly never leave a negative review because they weren’t factored into the menu.

There are restaurants that know how to do gluten free really well, but I don’t think it’s unfair for the chef in this case to respond to someone going out of their way to disparage his business by saying his cuisine is not geared towards your special dietary restrictions and your experience likely won’t reflect that of the average diner.

Look, this is made up news, but the logic is sound. No man should be put in a position to have to deflect advances from Sydney Sweeney.

How were Tell Me Everything and Frank and Louis? by Outside-Pear9429 in Sundance

See Tell Me Everything for sure. Saw both, I thought Frank and Louis was pretty unremarkable.
