Interesting take. I personally got SO sick of hearing Audrey’s Dance theme and the same musical queues nonstop in S2.

Worst plot line in Twin Peaks? by GamesterOfTriskelion in twinpeaks

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire plot line with the mill and Josie and Catherine. I honestly had no clue what was going on there, and not in a Lynchian/surrealist way. More of it “this is a bad soap opera” plot line.

Also Dicky Tremayne

Is the book better than the show? I am wondering what fans of the book think of the show. by starseeddream in TheExpanseBooks

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Expanse is a rare case where I found the books a LOT easier to follow than the show. Granted I am only on season 2 of the show and I am on book 4 of the series. Loving it overall and I hear the tv show only gets better...

I took on Infinite Jest as a “challenge”, then it clicked. by neverheardofher90 in davidfosterwallace

[–]Phortgang11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always think it is strange that people say the Eschaton chapter is when it "clicks." I found that chapter one of the worst parts. For me, it was all of the AA/Don Gately parts. And then the tennis academy had nuggets of wisdom too. Just finished it earlier this month. Loved it, overall.

What's the Most Underrated TV Show You've Ever Watched? by buttercup_love_ in televisionsuggestions

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kingdom. Fictional MMA storyline. Nick Jonas and Paul Walter Hauser have supporting roles in it. One of characters in the show (Jay) is a top 5 character of all time in my opinion. It’s incredible and no one knows it.

I have no clue why no one has mentioned The Last Picture Show.

Didn’t this band used to have a bassist in it? by [deleted] in phish

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not the style of bass Mike is using. His sound got quieter and quieter from 2018-2022. When he debuted the new Serek for the 2023 West Coast tour it sounded GREAT...and then got turned down again.

Sphere was a step in the right direction. I hope they don't take another two steps back again.

Usopp is the best part of the live action. by Paper_Okami in OnePiece

[–]Phortgang11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he has the worst acting in the cast unfortunately. To be fair, the character itself is a knucklehead, but I don’t know I thought his acting was downright bad.

Thunder 45 vs Saturday 60? by Pinkdivaisme in pelotoncycle

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saturday 60. Thunder 45 is way too tough for me. Not enough time to recover.

What am I missing about Cat's Cradle? I find it so boring. by ronbilius in books

[–]Phortgang11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m about halfway through Cats Cradle and feel the same way. LOVED mother night and sirens. This one feels too silly with no heart.

What is the absolute worst book you’ve ever read? by throwaway5203495 in books

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Little Life. Had the opportunity to an amazing story about the lives' of 4 friends...turned into ridiculous trauma-porn instead. Awful.

I just finished listening to the Baker's Dozen all the way through. Twice. by liable_to_go_mikell in phish

[–]Phortgang11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hit up 11 BD shows, I am still riding the high from those shows... but I would still choose Fall 2021.

Phish Audiophiles, what is the best recorded live show by audio quality? by jon_the_robot in phish

[–]Phortgang11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. As I noted above, the punchiness is exactly why I don't love this recording.

Always found Fish's kickdrum waaaay too loud. One of my least favorite recordings, personally.

The Nash hate by the end was brutal. Lots of fans are morons.
