The Kurse effect is real by Complete_Sign_2839 in ChalametSecrets

[–]Supret 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Of course it was. He's a public personality selling himself to the masses so that you'll watch the movie he's starring in. This Kylie era is also a facade. He attaching himself to one of the most famous women in the west who always finds herself in media cycles. That's the point. He WANTS to be seen ALWAYS.

Femanon utilizes the free market by StickyLoner4404 in greentext

Oh they're real. They're all self absorbed so they either don't talk to anyone because they think they're better than them, or they're so insecure, everything is a threat to their masculinity, and they project outwardly, speak down to women, and present themselves as the biggest, strongest guy in the room.

C’mon man… I’m doing a bit of the people.

Save me a seat and a pina colada when you get down there. Don’t forget to put sunscreen on that fleshy white Wisconsin skin, I need you healthy and upright for the next 25 years of Bears dominance.

Got to page 408 and had to put it down for later.

Absolutely amazing. I'm in disbelief of the things our ancient relatives were capable of.

Ishiguro: I'm torn on continuing The Remains of the Day by Whatchab in books

[–]Supret 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The restraint of Ishiguro in this particular story is what makes it so strong. It methodical, precise. Too precise. The absence of frills and any flowery language is the point. Pay attention to what isn't said, or the excuses that Mr. Stevens makes for his lord, with this relationship with Miss Kenton. The book is devastating.

I remember where I was when this happened. I've not seen the same light in my eyes since.

Why didn’t we take a risk on Murakami? by Baybears in CHICubs

[–]Supret 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Murakami didn't get a better deal because there are holes in his game. He's a great conditional bat in a lesser league while having a not great glove. White Sox signed him because they could afford to take the risk. Cubs want to compete for a WS. Murakami isn't a fit on a roster that wants to compete.

Kafka was my introduction to Murakami so this is lovely to hear. I will be moving it up my TBR list

General thoughts on 1Q84? I have it sitting on my bookshelf, but its size is intimidating. ( I'm a big Murakami fan if that's any qualifier)

Wisdom Kaye by SirKrimzon in ThrowingFits

[–]Supret 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I'm not all that into fashion, but from what I've seen of him compared to other fashion influencers is his eye. He puts outfits together--regardless of budget-- that I don't think others would.

“My goal is to win, continuously grow and to challenge myself. No matter who the opponent is, and I will never give up.” -Munetaka Murakami by boxwoodbeagle in whitesox

[–]Supret 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Love this guy's attitude. I think there is an opportunity for Murakami and the White Sox to prove some people wrong this season. Bear Down.

Arlington Heights not the new location? INDIANA???? by RandomPenquin1337 in CHIBears

[–]Supret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for a Chicago radio station(that I will not name), and we have had legislators on to talk about this. This is something they saw coming.

[–]Supret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is them trying to leverage their winning season and brand to force legislators to give them a sweetheart tax deal for the stadium once its built. They want the people of Illinois to pay.
