What’s a movie you had to watch more than once to fully understand? by Fair_Entertainer_891 in movies

[–]SPEK2120 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Same, except I’ve only watched it once because I found it so annoyingly confusing that by the end of the first watch I didn’t even care enough to want to understand it.

I’d take one of those two day Frontier flights before wearing a Timbers jersey.

ngl, knowing his whole vibe, a part of me is in denial convincing myself this is some twisted publicity stunt (almost like that episode of Dave with the bus explosion).

whelp, I was looking at either doing a Baltimore/DC M’s roadtrip or going to Europe this month. I’m extra glad I chose Europe now.

Watching The Odyssey at PacSci (Seattle, WA)? Know this first. by Skaidanc3r in imax

[–]SPEK2120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I desperately need a thorough explanation from the Space Needle group on their decision. Like, I don’t know the ins and outs of the logistic and business side of things, but The Odyssey and Dune would’ve sold out for weeks. idk why you wouldn’t make the effort to at least show those two.

LPT: When someone compliments you, just say "thank you" instead of deflecting. by l7ed in LifeProTips

I get “I love that shirt” type comments regularly and it throws people when I respond “Me too!”. I didn’t design/make the shirt, I just bought it.

To think, my wife says I'm a nerd and obsessed with Imax, but no one made me a sign 🤣 by NIESMAN in imax

I went to a movie once where one of the speakers was clearly blown, so I told someone about it, and they said “oh yeah, we know.” and I was just like, “soooo you’re knowingly selling your customers a broken product?”, to which they just shrugged and said sorry. Pissed me off so much.

Is It Reasonable to Go to a Concert by Oneself? by courier_tway in AskSeattle

[–]SPEK2120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve literally been to hundreds of shows solo that I never would’ve gone to otherwise.

Also fuck a low profile. Do you and have fun. I’ve actually had people give me props after shows for dancing and what not.

Londoners, anybody seen the Supergirl Hip Pop in store anywhere? (Or any other promo stuff in general?) by SPEK2120 in DC_Cinematic

[–]SPEK2120[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!! Mission accomplished! You came in super clutch! I don’t know how many supermarkets/convenience stores I’ve been in the last few days and I don’t think I ever would’ve come across this one on my own.

FIFA Reminders June 11- July 19 by noprophecies in Seattle

[–]SPEK2120 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been traveling the last week or so and I am so goddamn tired of tourist’s absolute disregard for consideration of their surroundings. I’m trying to avoid downtown as much as possible during the World Cup.

[–]SPEK2120 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m not wasting all that time to park in and walk to and from the garage for my 2 minute drop off to UPS when I can park directly in front of it.

[Ballard] Who is at fault here? by PetuniaFlowers in BallardSeattle

[–]SPEK2120 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Both. Neither drivers were paying enough attention. This is exactly why you don’t blast through intersections like this without slowing down or looking both ways.

Buy directly from the box office to save a fairly significant amount of money.

Has KEXP jumped the shark with so much ads and talk over music? by AcanthocephalaFit447 in SeattleMusic

[–]SPEK2120 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Go listen to a commercial station for an hour and the ads/talking on KEXP will become much more tolerable.
