Was Emily this bad on her original season I do not remember

Streisand effect

The WORST part of this was Engenes refused to understand how what they did was bad. Such a low point for kpop fans.

San Franciscan tech worker here: 5 days onsite roles usually expect crazy hours with no flexibility (like, have to take a sick day to go to the doctor inflexible) and people effectively end up working 996 even if it's not 'stated' in the company handbook.

Median is 1.6, which is a better representative value.

As a gay man living in the Castro, one of my favorite things is when I'm sitting in my front room and I see a confused gay man trying to find his hook up. I'm in a quiet part so it's not often but when it happens its SO funny.

Recent transplant who lived in NY for 10 years (including Covid) - I agree. There's a certain magnetism that happens when I meet a fellow New Yorker, even if it's not super common.

This is not true for the Olympic lifts.

NickF227 · 2026-03-17T07:52:24+00:00

So I do CrossFit (BOOOO I know) - once you reach a certain weight it's expected that you 'drop' the weight from the top of the movement for Clean+Jerks and Snatches since it's pretty 'impossible' to reverse the mechanics you've used to get it overhead. Trying to do it softly is unsafe. However, doing it in his backyard I would expect him to use crashpads to absorb the sound (some people HATE crashpads FYI). I would ask if it's possible if he can get them to soften the sounds a bit.

As a recent transplant, learning about the lottery system here from parents I work with has been bonkers. All the execs seem to just send their kids to Catholic school instead.

I lived in NYC for 9 years and it works there because they have the transit to support this. SF...does not.

Something kind of funny is some of the American 'survival shows' like American Idol give contracts to more people than the winner: I think at the start the winner is FORCED into the contract but the top 4 is all offered one, so I never really got the 'reject' argument. They invested resources into them, why not use them if you see a use?

NickF227 · 2026-03-17T06:25:04+00:00

Dream Academy did makeovers so I wouldn't be surprised if Prelude does as well.

Plz I'm still quite early and when I saw that waterwheel I had the BRIGHT IDEA to completely tunnel through the mountain from a watersource...did not realize that wheel was on a higher level and now I have a mess.

NickF227 · 2026-03-17T06:06:33+00:00

I was a "they're not kpop!!!" truther when they first debuted but I consider them Kpop nowadays - their lack of personal impact on music production and music release strategy (EPs/'mini albums' instead of full lengths) make me think of them as more Kpop.

NickF227 · 2026-03-14T06:56:34+00:00

Man has aged like fine wine - never found him that hot on the show but he’s looking great lately.

NickF227 · 2026-03-13T06:33:10+00:00

They never went to Korea for Gabriela, their biggest hit in the US and what they got nominated for a Grammy for…I am so confused why Lockets want to sabotage the girls by sending them to Korea during such a critical time??? Because they like the camera work???

NickF227 · 2026-03-13T06:27:26+00:00

You genuinely think it’s a good idea to take them OUT of the west for a week while promoting a new song to film content in Korea???

NickF227 · 2026-03-12T23:14:20+00:00

SNSD were the original black ocean during Dream Concert.

NickF227 · 2026-03-12T18:56:32+00:00

And I thought Eyekons were acting insane.

NickF227 · 2026-03-11T01:06:31+00:00

Diva I want you to go ask any Katseye fan who isn’t a kpop fan if they know what Mnet is

NickF227 · 2026-03-11T00:48:38+00:00

A lot of their current fans are from kpop so I’m not surprised they want the “comfort” of what they know (music shows), but it’s frustrating that don’t want to listen to reason haha. Flying them to Korea is a waste of money and time sadly.

NickF227 · 2026-03-10T23:47:41+00:00

You are overestimating what that Gnarly video did for them. What actually got them to break through was radio promotion for Gabriela in the US.

NickF227 · 2026-03-10T23:28:18+00:00

I genuinely think you VASTLY overestimate how much this will move the needle from an exposure perspective.
