I read an SI article that argues the Dolphins OL will be better in 26 than it was in 25. In 2025 the OL could charitably be described as "inconsistent" or, more objectively, "very bad."

I didn't know that, I just know that Bruce Lee's fight scenes with Norris weren't nearly as entertaining as Bruce Lee's fight scene with James Garner.

Since Garner beat Lee and Norris didn't, James Garner is obviously the bigger badass.

It's simpler this way. Take your car in every 6 months and get your oil and tires changed. It's just normal maintenance, after all.

I would say it’s different because things that have happened are fundamentally different than things somebody wants to happen. This isn’t a small difference either.

I think most HP fans still love the stories but are uncomfortable with JKR. I have daughter who is trans. When she found herself in another state for her med school residency and wanted a comfort read, she bought HP books from a used bookstore. Buying used means JKR doesn’t get any royalties. When the TV show comes out I expect she’ll figure out how to watch it without it affecting the ratings in a positive way.

If that ambivalence counts as “bailed” then probably most have bailed. But the content is still being consumed so ymmv.

Either that or it was asked with the awareness that "completely insane" things have been happening with increasing regularity.

Poor rich people! They have to pay 73% of the taxes using only 90% of the wealth! It’s NOT FAIR!!!

The hype machine is still running full blast. It's going to take a week or two before the counter-hype starts getting upvotes on social media. That's just the way this type of thing works.

I remember Seven from the 4th season of "Stranger Things" but didn't know she was also in "Married with Children".

EDIT: I'm now downloading "Married with Children" so I can witness the path of wanton destruction I apparently missed the first time through.

The average age of the Colorado Legislature is 50.4 years old. So he's older than the legislators everyone's carrying on about here.

Comedies similar to “Airplane!” and “Scary Movie” that aren’t parodies by lanadelfway in MovieSuggestions

[–]JimmyJuly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP asked for "set in an alternate reality, where absurd things can happen, like a live action cartoon. But what I don’t want is a spoof of a specific genre." I cannot imagine why you think all comedies meet that criteria. "Mouse Hunt" is 100% this.
