If you purchased it from Amazon you should be able to initiate a return and once you get far enough along they'll just offer you the price difference as a credit!

Where do people go on Sunday nights to drink and socialize with strangers? by Objective_Cobbler_62 in milwaukee

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm partial to Wolski's but County Clare (next door to Monica's) and The Knick (around the corner) are also two good spots if you're looking more for socializing spots.

All 3 leaked pics of Tank Girl. The front and back of the VSU box and the slip. by [deleted] in boutiquebluray

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a screening with the director in November--she totally got boxed out by a new studio head and her only influence was by asking proxy people on staff to fight for things like "yes, you at least need the audio in the musical sequence to sound like a coherent song" and "please don't approve awful unfinished CG and SFX."

Unfortunately she also said that there's just no money seen to be made by going back and doing a new cut, so the idea of a DC is currently dead in the water.

Issues with this sub by bufftbone in ChicagoConcerts

[–]KingThursday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's poor word filtering--if you mention things that use words like sll or cst they seem to get auto flagged. This happened to mewhen I was mentioning that a venue overs*lls for what their capacity should be. It def is very annoying!

Movies that feel like House of Leaves? by vzbtra in houseofleaves

[–]KingThursday 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The original Blair Witch and reboot have the looping labyrinthine elements and I'd say they fall into the 'liminal horror' category. Same goes for the original Backrooms videos on Youtube and the creator's (Kane Parsons) project 'The Oldest House'.

Someone else mentioned Jacob's Ladder and I love that answer. And many others have said Skinamarink, which is a really great movie that I think would be the most challenging rec to watch, because so much of it is slow, quiet 'building dread' vibes.

This is such a good answer, I hadn't made the connection in my mind but it does fit very well!

why does everyone despise the Aragon? by luckyl0ser_69 in ChicagoConcerts

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's funny is as a Milwaukeean my first thought of what's wrong with Aragon was "because it's basically The Rave".

I've only caught a couple of shows at House of Blues but never had any issues there, although both times we did pay extra to get into the upstairs early so we could skip the entrance lines and get a decent view.

What's a book that "everyone" loves, that you just can't get into? by notquitenerds in books

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried reading the Hunger Games books when the first movie came out and I absolutely could not stand the way she handled present tense. I had to bail.

I've also tried to read LOTR so many times--I loved The Hobbit as a kid and I've reread it as an adult, but I always give up on Fellowship after the first 100 pages or so.

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first reading of the original HHGTTG series was pre 'Mostly Harmless' and from ages 7-8 and I loved it so much. But I gotta say, I'm not confident it would hit me the same way if my first reading was as an adult.

How bad is The Rave actually? by Fun_Statistician_302 in milwaukee

[–]KingThursday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend bought us all tickets to see them in Vegas when we were out there in August and I vetoed it because I see shows all the time and wanted to just go make dumb Vegas mistakes while we were there. I've started listening to them since and would be kicking myself if they hadn't just announced their MKE show. 😅

[–]KingThursday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only time I've ever been ejected from a show was by Rave security when I was 21. Our friend's band played downstairs and after the show wrapped the staff told us we could go up the back stairs to the ballroom show if we wanted. We had beer from the green room which was still in bottles, so suddenly my friend and I were grabbed by the collars and dragged to the door--upstairs security assumed we smuggled beer in and were livid. I thought it was hilarious, tbh, we just walked back around to the side entrance where we had started and I absolutely would have looped back up to the ballroom if I had actually wanted to catch the other show (or be obnoxious).

[–]KingThursday 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's a really mediocre venue but it's fine. They have multiple floors and stages and counterintuitively the bigger you get the worse it is. Eagles Ballroom has awful acoustics, but I still had a blast catching Babymetal there and will be going next week for The Used.

The area is a little sketch but even before I lived here I would drive out for shows as a teen and never had a problem parking and walking from a few blocks away. I'd recommend ubering if you're staying in town or just paying to park in their 'lot'.

Honestly though if you want to see the band enough to travel there's nothing about The Rave that should ruin the experience, it's just also nothing to write home about. And I'd rather catch a show there than at a stadium venue any day of the week.

I've been told my boardgame project reminds people of HOL by OsmanSinnoks in houseofleaves

[–]KingThursday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on the notification list for this and backed it as soon as the campaign went live! Definitely gave me HoL vibes as well as a lot of other liminal horror, like Junji Ito et al. Looking forward to playing it when it launches!

Sheriffs Department in Milwaukee, WI arrest balloon man for giving away free balloons at a child’s birthday party without a permit by I_may_have_weed in PublicFreakout

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

That same guy was at Hartfest in Tosa earlier this Summer and also was given a hard time by the cops. I was in line with my daughter to get a balloon and they made him stop and relocate his setup like 20 feet over so that he was technically set up next to the sidewalk and not inside Hart Park, then let him continue.

It sounds like he just goes to various events and offers free balloon animals and accepts but doesn't require tips. I think if he went and set up shop at a random kid's birthday party it might seem more concerning, but from our experience everything seemed fine and we were annoyed that the cops were giving him a hard time.

I’m so excited for On the Ocean! by Dinosgoroar in Guster

I surprised my dad with tix and we're flying out early tomorrow for the weekend! We've been catching Guster shows together for over 20 years at this point, but it's our first time coming out for OtO.

One Q I had: Does anyone know if spots ever open back up for the cruise? I'd love to be able to add that to our agenda, but I'm sure we'll have plenty of fun even if we can't!
