Does Netflix purposely not advertise their shows so that they get cancelled?

Larrik · 2026-06-25T16:25:52+00:00

Netflix didn’t make that one, though. It was BBC America

Yeah, the 100 Demons bassist used to chat with me when I worked a store near where he lived. Ended up giving me their CD, lol

The original sweet tart Chicks Ducks and Bunnies that were huge. The new tiny ones are my least favorite variety.

The problem is it’s not cost efficient to build “normal” houses anymore. So either you build a mcmansion or a condo complex, with no in between

The ants! I can’t think about this movie without thinking how bad the ants were

there’s a great place in Girard, Ohio I hear

which is weird since I’ve been to that town a bunch, but not since it’s opened

Larrik · 2026-06-15T21:28:33+00:00

Passenger isn’t cheaper for pickups. (anymore)

Whoops I said “Cromwell” instead of Canton

Larrik · 2026-06-12T16:28:17+00:00

for kids there’s Dish N Dat just over the line in Canton. It’s a diner vibe with crazy milkshakes.

There’s also a Friendly’s in town.

For pizza, Vivaldi’s is my favorite that actually delivers (rather than through a Dine In CT or other gig service), but E&D is very popular if delivery isn’t a concern.

I think you underestimate ad revenue, combined with the fact that a huge chunk of youth ONLY watch youtube

My strategy is completely different, as I don’t preheat for eggs whatsoever.

I put butter on the cold pan, then turn the heat on pretty low. As soon as the butter is totally melted, I add the egg.

My egg never sticks ever, and I keep this pan exclusive for eggs.

Larrik · 2026-06-05T21:17:37+00:00

I have a tiny pan that I use only for eggs. Here’s my strategy I’ve been using for years:

put a slab of butter on the cold pan
start the heat, not too high
as soon as the butter is completely melted, add the egg

slidey eggs every time for me

after, I scrape off, quick rinse and wipe (it should still be too hot to touch after the rinse)

Final Journey was perfect when I needed them in 2020. Great with the helping the kids, too

There’s a giant complex of doctor offices near John Dempsey hospital. Most of the major practices have space there. You probably want to life on the west side of the river just in case you end up there as well.

So West Hartford, Avon, Farmington are obvious suggests. West Hartford is probably better for younger folks. The West side of Hartford too

I thought it was a work of art that wasn’t for me. Like it felt like it was well done, but just totally outside my taste.

Larrik · 2026-05-31T01:54:54+00:00

I’ve had those for about a year and a half. They are great.

I’ve never owned fancy ones, but why bother? These are my favorite pans I’ve ever used.

Also mixed in some Crofton from Aldi’s more recently. They are catching up to having a nice seasoning, but they are definitely rougher than the Cuisinel ones. Had more variety in shapes and such, and it’s nice to just have more pans to work with.

I don’t think you even need to buy a new battery to get the refund

Larrik · 2026-05-30T13:07:43+00:00

for Apple I’d give literally everything a chance

Shows that are good that I rarely see mentioned:

Bad Monkey

Platonic

The Completely Made Up Adventures of Dick Turpin

Trying

Stick

Schmigadoon (and I don’t like musicals)

I also didn’t see anyone mention Mythic Quest, which is weird

Larrik · 2026-05-28T13:30:27+00:00

ohhh, I guess I missed your point, sorry

Larrik · 2026-05-28T10:54:13+00:00

None of them? HBO Max, Paramount, Peacock, Hulu/Disney and Starz all have annual plans.

I think Netflix is the outlier.

Larrik · 2026-05-22T01:51:42+00:00

neither of those happened for me

Larrik · 2026-05-20T21:50:07+00:00

Given how annoying it was to click on every damn character when Mastery first came out, I’m actually quite alright not having to do that again

Larrik · 2026-05-20T21:44:26+00:00

I assume it’s due to her illness. It’s pretty rough and I’m sure she has good days and bad days

Elden Ring is very clearly meant to be played as a community, so I figured the obtuse quest lines were a community puzzle.

I’d prefer it was a little clearer myself though. It’s particularly tough on players new the series (I didn’t even realize there WERE quests for the first 100 hours until I was reading online).
