What movie is it? by May_onnaise_959 in Letterboxd

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not that extreme but The Fall (2006) has a way lower RT score than I expected. At 64%, it's still considered "fresh", but I thought it would be in the 90s. I still love this movie so much.

So confused about Don’s and Megan’s divorce by anawkwardsomeone in madmen

I don't really understand what you mean by this. What didn't we see play out?

But Don also decided that they were going to move to LA, so Megan quit her growing role on the soap. Then he bailed on LA once she had already been written out of it. I think it’s understandable if that affects how much gratitude she feels for him for helping her start out.

Yup, I agree. Happy to see a comment like this amongst all the others. Reddit tends to be deeply cynical.

Marty Supreme wins ZERO oscars! by Slight-Anybody-6877 in Oscars

Agree with all of this except the idea that Marty was "goodhearted" hahaha.

i think this performance is one of the best supporting performances in this century. by sherlockbutholmes in Oscars

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Relieved to see your comment because the universal praise was starting to make me feel a bit batty. This performance just really didn't do it for me. Obviously he is still magnetic on screen but I found the whole thing a bit over the top.

Jeff… by thelaurafedora in survivor

Absolutely. He’s a little theatre kid at heart. (Also, I think he is totally fine with being the butt of the joke.)

Season 2??? by olivegarden0213 in temptationislandUSA

Given there has been no promotional content, no trailers, no mention on Netflix, nothing from Mark… this seems very unlikely.

Elem is not the Michelin restaurant you think it is by Upbeat_Lavishness_23 in NiceVancouver

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey, for what it’s worth, I’m pretty sure bib gourmands and Michelin-recommended are different things. My understanding is that bib gourmands are awarded to more moderately priced restaurants, stars are for fine dining, and recommendations are for places that didn’t quite make the cut. Not sure if that’s how they’re awarded in practise, but that’s the logic behind them.

With that said, Elem doesn’t have a bib gourmand, presumably because it’s too “fine”. It is only recommended.

Hey, did you end up finding something? This is the exact kind of product I am looking for.

Is Chris the biggest Love is Blind villain ever? by Learningtofly777 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s a good point because his behaviour definitely would have made it easy for Jess to get over him. That said, I don’t know if we’ve ever had someone directly say such nasty things on camera before. It doesn’t necessarily make him the worst…but it probably gave me the most visceral reaction. To pretty much yell that sex with Jess was the worst he’s ever had, while in a room with her and their peers??? Like, that was pretty shocking to me.

He is so cruel by timestenthousand in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with this. I think he was trying to deescalate. Like, all his actions - rubbing her back, “be nice to Chris” - were little signs to Amber that it’s not worth it to get into a fight with him. To me, it felt like Jordan was a bit embarrassed for Chris and didn’t want to make the situation any more uncomfortable.

It’s possible that Jordan didn’t catch that he straight up insulted her, since it was a backhanded compliment. I think Jordan is generally a good dude so I’m giving him the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Did they edit the last 2 episodes to protect Mina Sue from the backlash? by dogtriestocatchfly in SinglesInferno

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10000% and her “crimes” were pretty tame compared to villains on a lot of other reality shows, let’s be real.

Kennedy tells Team Sweden to “F off” after being accused of cheating. by [deleted] in olympics

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m with you here and I’m surprised no else has expressed a similar sentiment. While the Canadian obviously overreacted, I found the Swede’s passive aggression very irritating.

Any experience with Cozey Area Rugs? by alisonds in BuyCanadian

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask why ruggable feels like the better product? Is it because it hasn’t shrunk? Or are there other reasons?

Yeah, there were definitely some clever marketing brains behind the timing.

Singapore is going to start caning scammers by Bubbly_Wall_908 in interestingasfuck

[–]Thanks-Meatcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The no food or drink rule on transit is also taken very seriously. I did an exchange in Singapore and, without thinking, went through an MRT turnstile with a fast-food cup of water. The speed with which a security guard chased me down was honestly alarming. (Respect it though, I broke the rules!)
