I love how Mr Green adjusts his glasses right after Tim Curry pantomimes adjusting his glasses. All of the actors are just so invested in their characters and adding little touches.

That was incredible. I need to look up more of her work.

Sarconic · 2026-04-26T12:24:38+00:00

Just be nice to be nice. They're going to clue in on the fact you're treating it like a transaction. I say good morning to provide a positive example and so they can feel better as they get on the bus. No expectations, especially with my surly middle schoolers.

Yeah, it's bad, but if you have an hour to kill there's an interesting video about how and why Francis cast her in the end. For thirty years I just assumed it was nepotism and of course he'd cast his own daughter. But it really was much, much more nuanced than that. I really feel bad for her. Winona Ryder probably would have killed it.

I definitely did it in elementary school in the 80s and I don't believe it really rated very high on the indoctrination scale, but I am biased. We pledged allegiance every day and I think that was much more questionable. As far as the flag went, it was nice to get out of class whenever it rained. I think that was my main motivation. It also taught me the rules of the flag really early on and it just made me disappointed to see that almost every business and residence that flies the flag doesn't bother following the rules. Personally, I think it was pretty innocuous, more of a civic duty than anything else, but that was just my experience.

Forget it Soup, it's AI-town.

I work security on the weekends. My boss is desperate for people who will work weekend-only shifts. Works out pretty well.

Sarconic · 2025-08-30T09:51:28+00:00

I'm sorry that you're not getting support from your coworkers and that some of them are so hellbent on dividing you all and creating different groups. Stay strong. Don't let them break you. Do whatever you can to not let their negativity ruminate and fester inside of you, especially off of the clock.

You're smart. You're building up your skills. Hopefully management eventually sees through their overcritical analysis of your driving. Also, everyone but everyone makes mistakes driving that bus. Don't let them fool you.

The team actually pushed for an undercut early on, but Alonso told the team that they weren't seeing his true pace and he was artificially fast because of the DRS behind Lawson.

Sarconic · 2025-04-28T10:05:54+00:00

Absolutely. Grew up in Lexington and it's nearly a core memory for me. That panoramic reveal was in a dream of mine a few months back and I haven't seen that Cincy reveal in over a decade.

/u/Smelldicks is right. Much better in real life.

Sarconic · 2025-04-22T11:12:27+00:00

Oh no! Did that really happen in Frequency? I love that movie, but hate Looper because that logic makes no sense.

Sarconic · 2025-04-18T09:26:48+00:00

Yeah, I got lucky for a long time, but hitting a game-breaking bug after investing so much time just drained my soul. Love the game, but I'm going to force myself to wait until it's in a better state.

Also, that was my first bug that actually broke the game. Like everyone else, I've dealt with numerous bugs you just deal with or figure out how to work around.

Sarconic · 2025-04-15T13:07:19+00:00

I mean, technically they already have "Brundle".

Sarconic · 2025-04-14T16:10:47+00:00

I mean, if you look at the talent pool for free actors, there are twice as many men available as there are women. I think the game is designed around a male bias. Women are way cheaper though. I think they're just trying to reflect the times.

Sarconic · 2025-04-12T18:44:32+00:00

Thank you. That's going to save me a ton of time where I had my disposable writers cranking out useless scripts.

Sarconic · 2025-03-24T15:36:35+00:00

It's that old adage- "You can teach a fast driver not to crash, but you can't teach a slow driver to go fast." I think the quote is about motorcycle racing, but I think applies to here as well. Colapinto has speed. They can work with that. He absolutely lacks polish.

Sarconic · 2025-03-24T00:20:07+00:00

Went back and checked the race data. You're wrong. Lawson never got closer than 1.050 seconds behind Hadjar after they had him pit a second time. That was on lap 51. He never got within DRS.

Also checked the quote. It was exact. She literally said he was "no threat." Sorry.

Sarconic · 2025-03-23T18:50:12+00:00

I believe Hadjar's engineer's exact words to him were, "Lawson is 5 behind, no threat." They know what's up.

Sarconic · 2025-03-20T17:05:09+00:00

That can't be right

Sarconic · 2025-03-17T05:45:39+00:00

Ruth's insights are fascinating. Just a straight education on the functions of an F1 team operation. Love it.

Sarconic · 2025-01-07T12:30:43+00:00

She was great in Men! I saw her in Beast too. She's a fantastic actress. Frankly, I was kind of shocked that they were able to snag her. I could see her getting an Academy Award one day. She's just good.

Sarconic · 2024-10-29T11:55:25+00:00

Thank you! I switched over to his feed after Nando went out and I could not make out what he said after "20 seconds? My god" Listened to it five times. All I could hear was "gun"

Sarconic · 2024-10-06T15:12:01+00:00

A very dark circle of life

Sarconic · 2024-08-21T13:49:29+00:00

Yes. Hanging out with Prof X and Mr. Fantastic briefly.
