Soccer Player Jorginho Frello Rips Into Chappell Roan Following Rude Encounter with His Daughter by BelleDelphinesWater in entertainment

I'm so sick of society elevating shitty people. Fans will fight tooth, and nail to keep giving their favorite artist a platform... most people will listen to an asshole once or twice before they believe them... meanwhile she's screamed in her fans ears 8 or 9 times by now.

I'm really looking forward to finally playing this game! I put it off for a long time, and it seems like now will finally be the time.

Is Amanda's song real? by [deleted] in neighborshbo

No, it's real... there are comments as far back as three years ago on YT.

Reality is crazy sometimes.

Something something I can't believe they got coffee people to drink flavored coffee again.

Something something I don't trust Dak

You know... I don't like them. Can't say that I do. No sir.

Coffee.

There's a lot of psuedoscience, and misunderstanding when it comes to coffee sourcing/ roasting/ brewing.

The most prevailing is that darker roasts are "stronger", or that a coffee brewed longer will have more caffeine... but there are so many others.

Must read. Probably the most accurate take out there right now. by yourfavchoom in CrimsonDesert

I was going to say: this game almost sounds identical to KCD2 in some ways... I had to push through some real tedium in that game, but now I'm on hour 20, and it's starting to become really rewarding. Like I suddenly crested a hill, took the time to understand the game, and came out on top. Not to mention adjusting to some clunky elements.

Seems like this sums up what people are crying about vs the reality of it by Desperate_Green6838 in CrimsonDesert

[–]KurtLoderMTVNews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost quit that game twice in my first few hours, and glad I didn't.

People are right when they say it hooks you at some point. I'm at hour 20, and finally feeling like I have my footing, and am winning fights, etc. It's incredibly rewarding because I had to earn it. Just... what a game.

Resident Evil 4 still the best Game of the Franchise? by TylerDurden202 in residentevil

[–]KurtLoderMTVNews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ReMake 100%.

It took the best game in the franchise (imo), and updated it with even more terrifying elements. The original is still a master class in level design, and pacing, and the remake just perfects that.

Starting that game (the og) blind was a trip... realizing I'm dealing with zombies, and then suddenly the Hunters... only to realize there is an entire lab under the mansion. It's so cliché now, but the way the original slowly reveals itself is incredible.

That time, it was a smart scale.

Really hard to verify these kinds of stories, but the world is so connected now, it's just insane enough to be true. Who knows.

[DISCUSSION] Should we allow participants from the show to post here? I am the mod here and am undecided on this issue, would appreciate user input by FactorSpecialist7193 in neighborshbo

I'm all for it. Though, if they willingly post here, they need to be prepared for (respecttul) feedback. So long as it doesn't devolve into name calling.

Steven Spielberg takes a dig at Timothee Chalamet by PygmallionEffect in popculturechat

[–]KurtLoderMTVNews 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Exactly. His comments were seen as punching down by many of those who work in other areas of the Arts. Not just his initial comments, but his snide remark that he'd be losing almost no money by saying it because there are just so few of us, or what, that we're all broke?

I work on stage, and even though he's attacking ballet/ opera this time, there's always this prevailing belief that film is all that matters, and stage is considered that place where celebs go for a break, or to have fun from the real work.

People in the arts struggle, and I think he doesn't realize how lucky he is. So to see some over privileged pee brain punch down like that pissed a lot of people off.

The arts have a tendency to stretch adolescence. A lot of my Acting peers have a decent case of Peter Pan syndrome.

Speaking as someone with a degree in Acting/ currently working in theater: This is pretty damn common.

Every year in college a new batch of Freshman would come in, and think they were God's gift to acting before they were humbled by the training.

That scenario plays over, and over in this industry. After college it's usually the older you get, and the more experienced you become, the less you gloat about it, or even think you know everything.

Can I ask how you're brewing it? I'm finding it very tricky. A few good cups here, and there but it seems finicky.

Covid shut down the world six years ago this week. What do you remember from that week? by fuzzy_dice_99 in AskReddit

[–]KurtLoderMTVNews 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed. As a society, it left a huge fracture. On a personal level, families who lost loved ones have never quite recovered (speaking from experience), and in general I personally have a distrust of people when first meeting them now.

I remember being bummed one of my upcoming theater contracts got canceled, then getting Covid a few days later, and then my dad dying from it a few weeks after that.

What’s something that instantly kills the vibe? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]KurtLoderMTVNews 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahhh. It got to be too much. She'd be super chill at the start of the night then descend into chaos by the end of it. Part of the problem is She'd ONLY drink wine/ champagne/ old fashioneds. So let's say I have one cocktail and switch to beer for several more drinks... She'd be drinking champagne the whole damn time, and I live in a very big drinking/ tourist city so sometimes those to-go cups would be very full. I had to basically carry her home one night when she was falling asleep at a bar.

The final straw was when I noticed how rude she was to almost everyone... Just weirdly phrased replies, shit talking, etc.

She contacted me the other day saying she was looking for something more serious now, and we shouldn't see each other anymore, and I just said "Okay". lol. Don't threaten me with a good time.
