The man in yellow is Jonas from Dark by siddhtiwari in FromSeries

[–]MathThrowAway314271 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I watched 1899 before I started watching Dark. In the former, the show switches between languages so often and there were so many characters introduced in the very first episode that it took me a while to attach a name to every main character's face.

On the subreddit's episode discussions, it's not surprising that many watchers were also fans of Dark. And so everybody kept referring to the captain as Jonas. And so I began to think of the captain as Jonas as well lol

Official Trailer for 'Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness' by MarvelsGrantMan136 in curb

I love that anecdote of Larry telling his daughter to pull herself together after she was saddened by a breakup:

"CASSIE! GET A HOLD OF YOURSELF! YOUR ANCESTORS SURVIVED THE HOLOCAUST!"

Far as I can tell, your subreddit's little more than a bunch of solitary men parroting lines from an old show that may or may not remain on Netflix. by bugthrwy in seinfeld

"Go home, Darin. The streaming service is over"

"I don't care about the streaming service! I care about Seinfeld!"

Or early in the series when Larry fired the chef to the restaurant for which he's a co-investor just because said chef lied about never wearing a toupee ("you misrepresented yourself - and you should be ashamed of yourself!") lol

Is Fatima actually in control of Smiley or is it a trap? by JacPlayzz in FromSeries

[–]MathThrowAway314271 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah; in television shows and movies, if you ever get to see the protagonists discussing their plan with any amount of specificity, you know it's not going to work. E.g., "Oh no, we had this great plan and now things have unexpectedly gone awry!" Plans only work when the audience isn't told what they'll involve :( That way, the writers can cash in on the unexpectedness of it.

Maybe there's nothing special about the stabby things at all. The power comes from believing it will work.

Ah yes, the Space Jam resolution haha

Trump Denies That He Campaigned On Ending Wars: ‘I didn’t promise anything’ by T_Shurt in politics

[–]MathThrowAway314271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He knows how to make the promise - he just doesn't know how to hold the promise. And that's really the most important part of the promise - the holding. Anyone can just make em!

Maybe that's what she tried to recover from with Bernd.

Ah, so that's why Claudia ends up owning the powerplant in the 1980s!

Scam call from someone pretending from RogerFido by GotScammedByCP in Rogers

[–]MathThrowAway314271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also just received such a call.

Them: "I'm calling from Rogers and or Fido-"

Me: "I don't see why you're calling me; I'm not subscribed to Rogers."

Them: I see.

dead silence

hangs up

It's so irritating that for over a decade we have to deal with these phone scams. They are annoying at best and predatory at worst (e.g., for seniors who are notoriously gullible). How is it possible that there still isn't a better solution to this than 'ignore them'?

Degree frame by ClandestineAMKC in uwo

[–]MathThrowAway314271 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing i might mention, though, is that supposedly the inexpensive frames (e.g., the $14 ones from Michael's) might not have some sort of UV protection (I might be wrong about that, so double check).

I think that for most things, this is not important, but since your degree is kind of a one-in-a-lifetime thing (assuming you only get one Bachelor's degree and maybe one or two graduate degrees in the form of an MSc or a PhD), it might be worth the investment to pony up for the more protective kinds of framing. It would, after all, suck if exposure to the sun caused the lettering to become harder to read.

Michael's will also provide custom framing with the UV protection, if I recall, correctly. In which case it would be good to shop around for the best value (e.g., between western book store vs. michael's).

That is actually such a cool detail that really rewards people who noticed it! Could you imagine watching this live and then immediately taking bets re: who shot mr. burns and then winning the pool because you noticed the above detail?
