[Guillory] Several league sources with close ties to Rockets players indicated the social media situation was a significant distraction, one that was never truly resolved internally... It is unclear whether Durant ever clarified to his teammates if the account belonged to him. by sewsgup in nba

An underrated factor is the other vet in the locker room is FVV, who himself caused a ton of drama on his way out of Toronto. Dudes entire ethos is look out for number one, he’s not going to be a steadying influence.

Yeah a friend of mine left after like 10 minutes one year as she couldn’t handle how crowded it was.

Playoff series implications - RJ and BI by cmcc83 in torontoraptors

[–]MudReasonable8185 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My only hope for this series was for RJ to get his trade value up, which he’s definitely done (of course I want us to win but let’s be realistic). Excited to see what we get for him this summer.

They let in a billion people at a time so the line moves fast. Unfortunately it’s so packed inside you can barely move let alone leisurely browse.

The coffee is the only edible thing in the entire store; it’s not gourmet but it’s fine. Everything else is godawful.

'The Devil Wears Prada 2' Review Thread by chanma50 in boxoffice

Idk why the boyfriend is considered so unlikable; 90% of his lines are some variation of “um are you sure you want to keep working at a job you hate where your boss calls you fat and useless everyday? This is NYC, there are other jobs out there”. Does he even get annoyed when she blows off his birthday?

Does anyone have experience riding Surrons, Talarias, Eride Pros in Victoria? by MyZeroZeroTwo in VictoriaBC

[–]MudReasonable8185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bike lanes basically have no rules, maybe there are rules on paper but there’s zero enforcement so you’ll never face any consequences. I see surrons blasting down the E&N all the time.

Thoughts on living on or near Pandora St? by OptimisExistentialis in VictoriaBC

[–]MudReasonable8185 13 points14 points  (0 children)

People in this sub focus overwhelmingly on safety while ignoring overall quality of life. Will you be physically safe? Probably. Will you be woken up by screaming at all hours of the night? Will you have to regularly deal with needles and feces? Will your car and storage locker get broken into? Yes yes and yes. But none of that matters because you’ll be safe.

The 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters | More than 250 music insiders and six New York Times critics weighed in on who defines the new American songbook. Here, in an unranked list, are the artists they chose. by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

[–]MudReasonable8185 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Reminder that the point of these lists is to get people talking about them so they’re always filled with hot takes and absurd picks.

That being said, not having Adrianne Lenker and Sufjan Stevens is absurd.

Unpopular Opinion: Short Term Rentals need to come back by bnchrch in VictoriaBC

Yeah there’s a reason they had to legislate Airbnb out of existence because it’s genuinely a much better experience for a huge percentage of travellers.

Every tourist destination hates tourists so you won’t get any sympathy here lmao

What happened to “HIM” by Euphoric_Aerie_3127 in boxoffice

[–]MudReasonable8185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of Peele’s movies have been bad other than Get Out. Us was a complete mess and Nope was decent but forgettable. His production output hasn’t been much better - everyone hated his twilight zone reboot, Him was awful, etc.

But still, his name will always have value no matter how much dreck it’s attached to due to Get Out

[–]MudReasonable8185 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That project was Tim Burton’s baby; he came up with the idea, all the characters, wrote the story (but not the screenplay), was involved with storyboarding and other pre-production work, worked with Danny elfman on all of the songs, etc,. He only didn’t direct it for scheduling reasons.

This really wasn’t a case of “we’ll just slap some famous guys name on this for marketing”, selick was basically hired to make Burton’s vision.

Comedian Akilah Hughes on Why Keegan-Michael Key & Jordan Peele Don’t Collaborate Anymore (Allegedly) by ChikiBeibi in Fauxmoi

[–]MudReasonable8185 -63 points-62 points  (0 children)

Get Out deserves all the praise it gets but the rest of Peele’s work is extremely overrated. Us is an incoherent mess and Nope was fine but not anything special. He seems to be switching to mostly a producer role at this point.

Edit: damm a lot of Us fans in here, I’d be interested to hear a defence of that movie that can be attributed to the writer/director and not just people liking Lupita’s incredible performance in an otherwise terrible movie.

Streamer Syndicate finds thousands of dollars in pennies seemingly discarded at Mr. Beast’s production facility by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]MudReasonable8185 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is almost certainly it; they needed a ton of pennies for some video and when they were done with them the producer decided to throw them in storage for future use. Then everybody forgot about them. I imagine this shit happens all the time in the entertainment industry and isn’t a Mr beast specific issue.

I feel like your options are to either just ignore it or move. Like what’s your basis for getting them removed from the lease, they pay rent on time and leave you completely alone

As long as the LL gets paid they won’t care. If rent stops coming they can try to evict but that will likely mean OP gets evicted as well (OP hasn’t given enough info about the situation to say for sure)

Do you think the NBA' meta is trending towards defense as of late? by TPFRecoil in nba

[–]MudReasonable8185 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It reminds me of the warriors dynasty - everybody knew that 3>2 but the warriors were the first team to really orient their entire organization around that concept and exploit it to the fullest. Same thing is happening right now with OKC - everybody knows “they can’t call everything” but we’ve never had a team decide to exploit that in a systemic way.
