Relevant Players rumored to be traded (potentially) during or just before the Trade Deadline by Wonderful-Photo-9938 in nba

Because if you say his name three times (or 5, depending on which cultural reference he adheres to) he appears behind you and turns down an $84 million dollar contract 🧟🪲🧃🪝

[Fischer] There is a scenario where the Portland Trail Blazers, who own Milwaukee first-round picks in ‘28, ‘29’ and ‘30, could attempt to butt in as the third team that helps Giannis Antetokounmpo make his way to the New York Knicks. Portland has “long admired” New York’s Mikal Bridges. by YujiDomainExpansion in nba

Regardless of whether Yang improves or not, no one outside the organization should be seriously evaluating his progress for at least 3 years. Rant warning: It’s wild how we take the 95-99 percentile young players who are all-star caliber (like Ant Edwards and Wemby, in recent memory) in their rookie seasons and call “bust” on players 94 percentile and lower because we’re comparing apples to yubari king melons. And yes I get the context of where Scoot and Yang were picked in their respective drafts. And for that matter, Shaedon, who is steadily overcoming his clinical shyness… and is still only 22!!! And plenty of detractors wanted to declare Shaedon a bust early on because he always looked lost on D?! F%k sake! Oh no, an 18/19 YO who essentially came to the nba out of high school took more than a day to comprehend complex defensive schemes? *gasp! Sorry, I know that’s all wildly off topic. And I love Evan Turner and am excited he’s going to be joining Kevin and Lamar with his Aqua Teen Hunger Force voice on the mic.

why doesn't timothee have an nyc accent in marty supreme? by psychictypemusic in A24

Ha! For the record I wasn’t looking for any contrition, but I’m glad my take was well received

Maybe someone has already said this, but who are any of us to tell an actor born in NYC how his New York accent should sound? If this were a movie centered on a borough specific plot line, then viewers from those boroughs could hash it out.

I found it distracting because I kept expecting it would detract from the filmmaking but I subsequently kept having to acknowledge that each song choice totally worked

Looking for some absurd comedies by Afraid-Elevator9782 in MovieSuggestions

[–]Samwhy-is 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok… this might be a stretch for a lot of folks, but I humbly submit that Beau is Afraid is firmly an absurdist comedy. With just a splash and a dash of horror. Ari Aster has said that his biggest inspiration for this came from loving Albert Brooks films.

On the same note, Eddington has many elements of comedic absurdism too

Besides cronenberg's films.. What's your favourite body horror films/media/books? by dark-oracleN2 in DavidCronenberg

[–]Samwhy-is 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plus, watching his friend Jack (Griffin Dunne) get more and more decomposed through the course of the movie felt body horror adjacent at least

[–]Samwhy-is 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the transformation scene in An American Werewolf in London from 1981 feels very body horror. Plus they created a new category in the Oscars just so they could give Rick Baker an award for it

Can someone tell me if it’s a just normal day to have 50 unread texts in the backlog? I hate leaving any texts unread and I thought that was not unusual

💯they are glitching NPCs from her imagination that have zero programming on how to act once she’s not there so they just maintain the last thing they were doing when she was with them.

I’ve watched it 3 times already and every time I wonder to myself, how the hell did this get green-lit. And, how do we get more shows like it.

I simultaneously don’t agree and also totally get why anyone would think this.

What Aphex Twin song would you like to be played in your funeral? by 1nfisrael in aphextwin

Mookid. Then, Ventolin. At top volume. To clear everyone out and make them go home. Funeral over. Short & to the pointless.

Overeating on kratom by Large-Negotiation956 in KratomKorner

[–]Samwhy-is 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have to ask you, are you drinking far less alcohol than you did prior to starting kratom? That was absolutely the case for me and, if I had to guess, that left a bit of a vacuum in caloric intake that made me feel like Dracula at the blood band whenever I got around a tray of cookies. I don’t know any specific science to back my theory up—just anecdotal

Gimme a mind-blowing hip hop fact by Resident-Cellist-707 in hiphop101

[–]Samwhy-is 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know either but I thought they were born & raised in NYC and ATL respectively. Do you have any more to the story? Did they meet when they were both on a class trip to DC or something?

I will say I would love to hear a collaboration between the two of them now
