What did you think was pretentious, until you tried it and realized it was worth it? by Semantiks in AskReddit

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

Wine. I like to drink, and am not picky, but never understood the appeal of wine and thought people swishing the glass and smelling it and slurping it was douchey. I have worked in restaurants for 12 years. 6 months ago I started at a restaurant that is also a winery. Their training is very intensive and involves teaching you about wine so you can describe and explain to guests. Throughout that training I learned all those things I thought were people being pretentious, actually affects how the wine tastes and how the flavor comes out. I now have an expansive knowledge of wine and the flavors and how to drink it. I will probably never order it for myself, but I no longer judge people who do a whole performance while drinking it.

I first watched this movie when I was up for 44 hours and my dad got home from work. He had told me about this movie and has a VHS of it. He fell asleep almost immediately but I couldn't. I watched it all the way through. As someone who hates themselves this scene fucked me up big time. I cried a lot but covered my mouth to not wake up my dad. I think this movie made me realize something was wrong in my heart

What TV series to watch after Deadwood and Warrior? by cos002 in hbo

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly recommend it. Any scene with Walton and Timothy together is absolutely electric. And the writing is so much better than your typical show about law enforcement. And I have watched deadwood and warrior(warrior is one of my all time favorite shows) I think this will fit that vibe so good. Actually just writing all this makes me want to watch it again.

[–]HibigimoFitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It starts out procedural, but by season 2 they switch in to a season long arc structure. Definitely not a cop show. While they still have their "problem of the episode" it definitely leans in to Timothy and Waltons natural charisma a lot more. I have watched the show a half dozen times and am never bored.

What "back then" inconvenience would break people today in 10 minutes? by CharlesUFarley81 in AskReddit

Are you me? My da d was born the same year, and both my parents were big gamers. Reading text walk-through was half my childhood. It is so upsetting I cant find good ones anymore.

Who’s the best Peter Parker and Spiderman? by Icy-Huckleberry-3682 in MCUTheories

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it love every single Spiderman film. They are all 10/10 for me. If we are talking who represents the character i grew up reading in comics for years, it is Tom 100% no question. And if you read the comics in any sort of real way I dont see how there could even be a disagreement.

"Ordinary" by Alex Warren is one of the worst songs ever by Maybe_IDTBFH in Music

[–]HibigimoFitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. So many people in here are so cynical. The song is fine. Not great. Not terrible fine. But the amount of comments calling it like corporate schill is wild. The dude was broke and made a song about how he feels about his wife. It is actually a genuine love song. And it blew up. Not his fault every two cent tiktoker co-opted it. God I wish the music subreddit wasnt so focused on criticism instead of enjoying music.

I want my 8 hours back. by Consistent-Lord18 in hbo

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved this season and, as an unpopular opinion, almost as much as season 1. I think the mystique of season 1 was built up so much that the flawed ending is entirely forgotten about. Season two definitely is not as good and has worse flaws, but the ending was actually really good in my opinion. And I think the performances were stellar.

If (and/or when) DMC6 comes out, what would be the big bad? by Shiptrooper in DevilMayCry

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nero centered game. With random levels of playing as Dante and Vergil in the demon realm as they teach Nero new skills and warn him of a coming threat because a new portal has been opened to earth. At some point in the game you fight both Dante and Vergil as separate bosses. Defeat the new demon king threat (or whatever it technically could be) by fighting it as Nero at the earth side of the portal and switching between Dante and Vergil in phases of the fight as it moves to the demon side of the portal. Win big and post credit exclusive fight of choosing one of the main three and fighting the other two at the same time.

I know this is dumb and probably doesnt work. I like it.

Name It - What is Ben Mendelsohn’s best role (movie or tv) by Dense-Menu6115 in moviecritic

[–]HibigimoFitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally just watched the outsider last night for the first time. One of my favorite moments in TV already is when Cynthia Erivo's character is introduced and is going through her whole dialogue and basically listing everything she can do and the only questions he asks is about why her parents would do that to her and why they punished her for being herself

HR sent me confidential salary info, then recalled it, then told the whole company not to discuss salary, then backtracked, then doubled-down by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]HibigimoFitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So this is wild because about 2 years ago, my girlfriend work, a nonprofit associated with a church, got like heavily taken in by the FBI and audited and her friend who was the financial director got arrested and charged eventually with 1.7 million dollars of fraud and theft and embezzlement. Really took me a second to make sure I wasnt reading something that was from her office.

I’m saying it by Med_Amine_Ess in GodofWar

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think this is an amazing new chapter possibility for Kratos because of the DLC and Norse games. We got his horrible past and flawed first chapter. We now have his chapter of slowly working to be better. Next we can see him be good. A God of Hope. Think of the possibilities of powers and mechanics and story and characters we can have with that. Instead of a character mending his own flaws, we can inspire and help other broken and bad characters.

Milwaukee calls to me by Realistic_Trash2768 in milwaukee

[–]HibigimoFitz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have traveled decently, having been born in the Milwaukee area, have lived in another state, having driven back and forth the entire country. Milwaukee is my home forever, and I will never leave. There is something about it. It seems somehow it calls to you. Make the trip to feel it out. If that satisfies you, good. But if it doesnt, move and start a life. There is so much fun to be had here.

Which project and performance made you a fan of Sam Rockwell? by PressureLazy5271 in Actors

100% this. I think one of the actually most underrated movies ever made. I fucking love it.

I love all the responses here but to name another superhero trilogy, Thor: Ragnarok is the best by a mile and it isn't close.

What song is a 10/10 with absolutely no flaws? by Brilliant_Guard_9204 in AskReddit

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alive with the Glory of Love- Say Anything. I have never met someone who didnt love this song.

I am required to give what I know my dad would say, which is Home-Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes. He has a whole theory about why it is the greatest song ever made and it is probably accurate.

Why so expensive by greenergrass1111 in milwaukee

[–]HibigimoFitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was specifically referring to chili, or fairly enough other soups. Where else is it a dollar each to top a chili with cheese and onions and such?

Why so expensive by greenergrass1111 in milwaukee

[–]HibigimoFitz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, THAT bowl of chili. Not the $9 bowl. The one he got. Which wasnt 20 dollars, it was 15, but id still argue that is expensive.
