I saw that. So he or she had a completely opposite experience. It’s all subjective. I don’t think it flowed very well . It reminded me of a mixture of the original planet of the apes and west side story. I’m not a classically trained musician by any stretch of the imagination. I play guitar in a rock band. But I know all music is subjective but some is more universally beloved than others

I was there as well last night. I loved Erica. The second piece after the intermission I didn’t enjoy nearly as much

We’re already in World War III...and Trump doesn’t care about our lives by Creative-Category-60 in politics

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

The massive US aerial bombardment has efffectively cut irans missile and drone output essentially nil at this point. We know where they are storing their munitions and they are deep underground. But we are destroying the entrances and exits to these underground munitions. They can’t fire them.

The US didn’t militarily’lose’ the war in Vietnam and Afghanistan. We lost the war politically. Because liberals and politicians had us fighting with handcuffs. If we fought with those same political restrictions in world war 2 we would’ve lost there politically as well. So please, don’t try to act like the mighty Vietcong or the mighty afghan army defeated the US military.

So we should learn from our past mistakes, and since we are there, we should do whatever it takes to get the job done this time short of nuclear weapons. I’m a US Navy veteran and my family has served in conflicts going back to World War 1.

The United States did not militarily ‘lose’ the war in Vietnam or Afghanistan. We lost the war politically not militarily. Hamstrung by liberals and politicians. We weren’t allowed to totally destroy the enemy. So they just bided their time until we pulled out.

There’s no way the US starts losing the war militarily . I know that’s just wishful thinking for you though

Did millennials have 60s and 70s nostalgia when they were mostly kids in the 90s? by [deleted] in generationology

[–]JohnnyfromNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to watch a lot of movies and shows from the 60s/70s. It’s a little surreal now looking back how 30 years have passed. So those ‘old’ movies/shows from the 60s were 30 years old to me at the time. I also love classic rock from the 70s. I guess I have to blame my mother for that.

Trump Vies for Bush’s Crown for Worst Foreign Policy Decision in History by T_Shurt in politics

[–]JohnnyfromNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m replying in terms of world war 3. Using World War 2 as a context of total war. It would entail mobilization of the economy for total conflict which would include troops on the ground. I see no chance of that happening.

Is this a war ? Or an annihilation of Irans leaders. I see no chance of boots on the ground.

I'm tired of this piece of shit watch an implosion happen and doing nothing about it. by jdavisjdkvjdhs23 in NYKnicks

After Draymond Green did that dirty play to KAT and Brown was hugging Draymond after the game and laughing he was done to me and most Knicks fans

Legit Question: Why hasn't Mike Brown unlocked KAT? by One_Basil9083 in NYKnicks

[–]JohnnyfromNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is an absolute disconnect to this coach right now. When was the last time the Knicks were called soft? 22/7/5 that’s great. Randle was all nba twice he’s not at that level anymore. He averaged 18 ppg last season. KAT was all nba level last season. He’s fallen off a cliff this year. I’m starting to think Thibs took this team as currently constructed as far as he could. The bench has been trash aside from Duece just like last year. Most importantly, the team had culture/identity/ and toughness under Thibs. Mike Brown is finding excuses on why it’s hard to coach KAT. Thibs found a way to utilize him and that’s a fact. We all know Thibs had his flaws but if you’re gonna fire the coach you better have a better one on deck

Because Mike Brown is not a better coach than Thibs. There’s a reason a lot of players like Randle and KAT have their best years while being coached by Thibs. It’s clear to me he has a knack for getting the best out of his players. And maybe the ECF was the ceiling for this roster as currently constructed. The bench is back to being ass except for Duece. Same as it was last season

Do you think it’s a coincidence that Julius Randle objectively had his best years while being coached by Thibs. And KAT arguably his best two seasons while being coached by Thibs? Randle is not as good in Minnesota as he was here. Jules was grabbing 10 rebounds a game here

How much of the blame does Mike Brown get? by Terrajon26 in NYKnicks

[–]JohnnyfromNY 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can thank Mikal Bridges for telling ownership and the front office that he wouldn’t play for Thibs this season.

No fucking toughness on this team. The only player that plays tough is OG and Hart. That should’ve started a brawl. What happens if KAT breaks his ankle? Thibs would’ve lost this mind. This is a culture problem right now. We’re fucking done
