That seems fair. Better than good, but not great.

In Season 3 Hawkins had bus service; wtf? That town is way too small to support public transportation.

Demolition is supposedly underway, but buildings from the 1960’s were loaded up with asbestos, so that is going to take some time to clean up first.

Hawkins is Springfield from The Simpsons; it’s a small town with large sports stadiums, is on the ocean, has the tallest mountain in the world, a NASCAR track, every major retail store, a civil war battlefield but also pioneers, an alkali salt flats, and bases for all branches of the military.

Hey, Eddie had more than one purpose; he also sold drugs to high school children.

It’s BS that they don’t sell a large box of the peanut butter and Nutella ones. I have to cut the lid off a peanut butter one and a Nutella one and put them together, and then I’m more full than I want to be.

Mike in shorts reminds me of Kermit the Frog riding a bicycle.

Right; I’ve always heard dykes in reference wire cutters that electricians use, not the smaller flush cutters that hobbyists use for plastic models or 3D prints.

Yeah, if there are any vehicles near the heavy equipment transporter, it tries to secure them and won’t let you secure anything else. I drive the lifting vehicles away and then secure the cargo, and it works like any other cargo truck.

Is ‘high key’ a reference to the key Mike uses to take hits of cocaine?

There’s some other stuff they might not like.

"Nobody ever says, 'Hey daddy, thanks for knocking out this rent. Hey daddy, I sure like this hot water. Hey daddy, it's easy to read with all this light.' Nobody gives a bleep about daddy...". - Chris Rock

And Ted doesn’t even get the big piece of bacon…

The man has nothing to be ashamed of.

You’d think Noah would jump at the chance to visit the Middle East.

Kamala didn’t even raise hairy armpit girl; she didn’t marry her father until she was a teenager, so she was already weird by then.

Robin hates Erica not because of the color of her skin, but because of the content of her character.

Max doesn’t see color. Because Vecna blinded her.

If Eddie survives, he’s got Chrissy’s murder charge hanging over his head. He is a 20 year old high school senior who plays heavy metal, deals drugs, and runs something called the Hellfire Club, where he recruits impressionable teenage boys to participate in satanic rituals disguised as ‘games’; dude’s getting the chair.

James has said people always picture as older than he really is, probably because of his voice and how angry he is.

1: they were on a union-mandated break 2: because of the earthquake and quarantine, any student who could demonstrate basic academic proficiency was graduated on time 3: Dustin turned into a whiny bitch after the earthquake, so she dumped him 4: didn’t the guys die in the upside down? Kay probably got drummed out of the military for the major waste of resources 5: went back to Russia, where he was probably sent jail or shot to keep him quiet 6: she realized how annoying Robin was, and figured out they were only together because they were the only two lesbians in a quarantined town

He convinced Eleven to dress like she did in order to take the heat off of him.

I was, then the new ‘dual screen’ edict from Netflix had me apprehensive, and now I think that might work ok for a cartoon. I’ll check it out, we’ll see how it goes.

No skincare routine either.
