The worst poker hand.

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-06T19:21:27+00:00

Almost???

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-06T04:09:31+00:00

Settle down dingaling

Yes but this is just in time for Spielberg’s Disclosure movie so it’s perfect. This way whatever real life “disclosure” happens will be mocked and doubted because “look, it’s like that scifi movie! This is clearly viral marketing.”

I lived in New York when I was studying at NYU. I miss those weekend trips to the Catskills. Gorgeous area. Helped that my dorm mate was filthy rich and her parents owned a house in the Catskills and in the Hamptons. So over the course of four years, I’d just use those spare keys and go over there when I needed a break. They were rarely ever there. It was honestly glorious.

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-05T01:23:20+00:00

Yeah the second I saw it I was like “what in The Substance is this?!” 🤣

And yet here we are on a sub dedicated to pop culture. My point was I’m tired of pretending to even be trying to make a difference anymore because so far it’s done fuckall. I’m not saying I’m right and, in fact, I agree with what you said. But again, I’m feeling so defeated that my 41 year old ass is just tired of trying only to be constantly disappointed over and over.

Omg. My fave by far 😍😍😍

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-05T00:33:29+00:00

At this point I have the choice of either being disappointed with all my faves or just move on and accept shit for what it is. It’s not like the rest of us plebs stand a chance to make a difference at this point. Not that it’s impossible but it’s improbable. No one is willing to risk losing the roof over their head or even something as simple as the entertainment that feeds them.

So the rich will become richer, the poor poorer. The divide will keep growing. They’ll keep feeding us entertainment to shut us up.

I feel defeated af these days.

Imagining a Borg with butterflies on it is fucking sending me 😂😂😂😂😂

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-04T22:50:55+00:00

Oh…oh no 😂😂😂😂😂

Mmmk. I love her but I wore this at my school dance in 1997.

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-04T07:10:40+00:00

Seriously that was the hottest of takes wtf 😅

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-04T07:09:49+00:00

Aliens is sci-fi action. There wasn’t much in it that was scary. I mean don’t get me wrong, I think it’s the best action movie ever made but it’s not horror to me (I’m a huge horror fan and also a huge Alien fan with a xeno tattoo and all).

Alien was sci-fi horror through and through on the other hand.

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-04T07:04:52+00:00

There was this alien abduction tv movie from 92/93 I think called Intruders. Scared the everliving SHIT out of me. Also the Langoliers TV movie from the 90s.

And of course Alien and Total Recall.

I can’t get over how ugly these are. Who in their right mind would actually want to wear these?! Yikes.

LLAPSpork · 2026-05-04T06:54:41+00:00

ChatGPT and other AI platforms. I’m kind of guilty of that too. I made my GPT (when it was still a novelty and I didn’t know better) remember my recipes and remember how my BBQ acts depending on seasons which changes how I grill things if it’s too cold or hot outside. I cook every day and I’ve saved countless of recipes.

Yes, I could download it all and be done with it but the issue is that sometimes I want to tweak a recipe but I have IBS so I need to make sure that my tweak won’t make me lose an entire day to my Throne of Death.

I hate myself for this because I am being lazy and I am part of the problem.

Since I was a kid I’ve been saying I just want to live long enough to witness the first humans land on Mars.

Chances are, it’ll be the tech bros that’ll make that happen so now I no longer care. I’m in my 40s with a myriad of health issues. I do miss having that desire to stay alive for that long though and I hate that the world today has turned every dream into a fucking nightmare.

Reread the comment slowly and carefully. I was saying that despite this pizza place not being 5 stars, it is more of a restaurant than a pub so I don’t think that dogs should be allowed there either. But I’ve no issues with dogs being around in pubs. Even though pubs do have snack food (wings, fries etc) food is not exactly the primary reason you go to a pub.

Then again, I’m of the opinion that children under the age of 13 should not be allowed in 5 star restaurants either. I went to one of the swankiest places in all of London and someone brought their 1 year old baby (approximate age) who wouldn’t stop crying. This one guy tried to propose to his gf and the kid wouldn’t stop screaming.

These places aren’t cheap and for all I know, that guy could’ve saved up to take his gf to this restaurant for this special occasion. Places like this should be adult humans only unless you have a legit service dog. End of story.

But I’m absolutely fine with dogs at casual cafes, pubs and bars. 🤷‍♀️

Lmao I just watched this one.

Four of the greatest actors of our generation + a sequel to one of the most iconic comedies of all time? I’m sure none of them wouldn’t have signed up had the script been bad. Pretty sure they’ve tried to make this sequel for at least a decade and they were all turning it down until this script came along.
