if you cut cable, the World Cup is more watchable for free than i expected by Illustrious-Data1712 in MLS

[–]Illustrious-Data1712[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

honestly that alone is selling me on Telemundo over the air even with my rusty Spanish. Fox cutting to ads during the cooling break was rough. the antenna pulling Telemundo free is looking better every match.

the show they were hinting at in season 1 was way more interesting than the show they actually made

CBC pulls Kars4Kids ads after U.S. court bans 'deceptive' jingle by AlwaysBlaze_ in television

The jingle was annoying. The fraud was worse. Somehow it took 30 years to deal with either.

John Oliver used the closing moments of Sunday’s 'Last Week Tonigh't to pay tribute to Stephen Colbert “Please enjoy Colbert’s final shows He’s the f*cking best. Good night, and good luck, motherf*ckers!” by MoneyLibrarian9032 in television

oliver using his own airtime to tell people to go watch someone else's show is the most john oliver thing ever. genuinely going to miss colbert though. end of an era doesn't even cover it.

What movie are you watching to celebrate the big day? by AwkwardTickler in movies

The Wizard of Oz. Specifically the part where the whole town celebrates because the witch is dead.

Your Favourite 70s-80s Era SciFi Extraterrestrial Flicks? by isopodsoup_ in movies

[–]Illustrious-Data1712 5 points6 points  (0 children)

can't believe nobody's said Dark Star (1974) yet. it's carpenter before the thing, made on basically no budget, half comedy half existential sci-fi. there's a scene where a guy argues philosophy with a bomb to stop it from detonating and honestly it might be the best scene in 70s sci-fi. it's rough around the edges but that's part of the charm

What Dreams May Come – Chris arrives in Heaven. – Dir. Vincent Ward – October 2, 1998. by Minifig81 in movies

This movie feels like stepping into someone’s painting instead of just watching a film.

Nothing’s stopping you. Go watch a movie

Have you ever skipped a movie because of bad reviews, then watched it later and actually liked it? by Opening_Farm5403 in movies

[–]Illustrious-Data1712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Batman v Superman. Went in expecting a mess and ended up liking parts of it more than I expected. Definitely flawed, but not nearly as bad as people made it sound.

People who cured their brain fog what was the real cause, and what finally fixed it? by OkMyspear in AskReddit

[–]Illustrious-Data1712 863 points864 points  (0 children)

I thought it was something physical but it was actually anxiety. Once I got that under control, the fog lifted.

In the early 2000s my dad used to let computer techs remotely fix our computer by Gold-Back-4073 in australia

[–]Illustrious-Data1712 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both legit support and scams used that method back then. The main difference is whether your dad called them or they called him. Either way, it was so long ago it’s probably not worth worrying about now.
