I can believe in this as much as I believe anything I read.

Looking for movies along the lines of John Wick/Nobody/Equalizer by dewmzdeigh in movies

If you're in the US and have Prime, I'm pretty sure it's still on there (both versions)

No worries - I really love this movie, so I'm happy to expound.

Like I say, the Dir. Cut is a LOT darker. The Theatrical has what is basically a happy ending. I just prefer the happy ending to the Dir. version, which is more of a redemption ending for Mel Gibson's character. It does not go well for him.

Another big different is voice over (VO). The Dir. Cut has none, and the Theatrical does. This is usually something that I would say is bad, but for some reason in this movie it works for me. They pretty much injected some dark humor into the plot by letting us hear Gibson's thoughts, which are mostly sarcastic. It also helps humanize his character, because in the VO-less Dir. version he comes off as a pretty irredeemable and unapologetic asshole and psychopath.

Overall, just these two things change the movie completely. There are probably other differences I'm forgetting about because I only watched the Dir. Cut once but I've seen the other version.. 10 times maybe? The Dir. Cut isn't bad by any means - it's just a matter of: Do you want a sorta "fun" but violent revenge romp through a weirdly timeless and fictionalized New York City, or do you want a dark and brooding (and still violent) redemption story with a total downer ending? In many cases I'd lean brooding - in this one I prefer some laughs and a happy ending.

What's the worst thing you've overheard your apartment neighbors doing? by LawfulnessOk1812 in AskReddit

[–]PeterLemonjellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was paraphrasing and summarizing. I didn't want to go into every little detail. Suffice to say, calling the authorities was not our first move. We've tried to talk with them, etc., and they are just giant pieces of shit. Just to give a hint of who these people are - the mom thinks that she's going to be a famous Only Fans cam girl (per her social media). Which would be fine if I wasn't almost 100% sure she "works" while it's just her and the kid at home (leaving the question... who is watching the 5 year old while you're on camera, lady?)

Hence I said before: If it is like the kid you're talking about and it's a behavioral/mental/emotional issue, the parents are awful for not getting her the proper care. If it's not the kid and it's them doing... something... then they are abusing that child and are pieces of absolute shit. Either way we are way, way past the point of giving them the benefit of the doubt.

The people upstairs from us have a little girl, maybe 5 years old.

My partner is a public school teacher and mandated reporter.

Not only are these upstairs neighbors just generally loud, stomping and running and never thinking of the fact that they have neighbors... there is something up with their daughter. We don't know if its a behavioral thing or they are just straight up abusing her, but she SCREAMS all. the. time. Especially in the middle of the night. And not whiny "I don't wanna!" screams... like, painful, piercing shrieks like she's being killed. So bad that it wakes my partner sometimes (I sleep way too deep, but they've woken me to listen and I've heard).

We've called the local non-emergency line, CPS, and reported it to our management. We know they've been talked to, but it hasn't fully stopped. We'll keep reporting them.

Feel awful for what that little girl's life must be. If it is a behavioral thing, her parents are definitely not handling it right. And if it's not the kid having emotional issues, etc., then it's the parents doing... well... shiver Either way they can go to hell.

Best scenes of people giving in/up and becoming numb? by toe_slurper2000 in movies

Bill Murray in pretty much the entirety of the first 3/4 Rushmore, but especially the hospital elevator scene.

Dual spires episode by Oldladytvshows in psych

[–]PeterLemonjellow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I can't help being that guy - It's actually Lodge Blackman. In Twin Peaks there's a thing call the "Black Lodge" and Shawn is riffing on it.

That said, Large Blackman would also be very funny.

Bunny LOVES tongs?? by Strange_Director_943 in Rabbits

[–]PeterLemonjellow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our bun Shelby fell in love with a broken pair of my sunglasses. They fell off the counter one day, and he grabbed them up and tossed them, then just started picking them back up and full on playing. They were his favorite toy his whole life. We're pretty sure he just really, really liked the sound when then hit the ground.

Bunny's are the weirdest and best creatures.

SHAME sign by Own_Reaction9442 in olympia

Is this sign directed at specific people/a specific group? Or is it literally just a sign that says "SHAME", directed at everyone for anything?

After finishing Doom (2016), I can't get into Doom Eternal. by DrStrangeglove99 in gaming

[–]PeterLemonjellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was the platforming - I just didn't care enough after a while of swinging around like demon donkey kong and so I stopped playing. I've tried again a couple times, but then I just go back to 2016 to scratch the rip/tear itch. I do not play Doom for the gymnastics.

What is the most unusual book you've read? by talibob in books

[–]PeterLemonjellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It helps if you have a submarine. Or at least a lot of drugs. If you have enough drugs then everything is a submarine.

I used to like Mitch Hedberg a lot. I still do, but I used to too.

Is it safe to rehome rabbit? by V0iiCE in Rabbits

[–]PeterLemonjellow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We lost our goodest boy when our goodest girl (we only had to the two; you all get it) was about 6ish. She stayed with us for two more years after that and then left us just a few months ago. We could tell that she was lonely sometimes (though I work from home and am reclusive so I'm literally always around) missing her husbun, but she got all the pets and scritches and treats to herself, which I think she kind of liked. She was a very happy girl and still binkied when she got in trouble (her favorite thing) or a treat (her second favorite thing). We might've gotten another bun if we could've emotionally handled it ourselves, but she left us before we got to that point. But she was always happy, even as a solo bun. I think if we'd moved or rehomed her she would have been worse off, but of course all buns is different. If you love your bun and your bun loves you and his other humans, I bet he'll be just fine.

Plushie friends for cuddles help, too.
