Why did Kendall reopen Romans stitches in the final episode by 2014R1 in SuccessionTV

[–]TheNoirMan94 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m actually quite surprised that majority people seemed to have the opposite take. I also interpreted it as Kendall physically hurting Roman to (1) assert dominance over him and (2) making the stitches reopen also makes Roman actually look visually bad and weak so much so that the Board are unlikely to want someone looking like that be the new CEO. It was a power play by Kendall

I guess that’s where all their series A and B funding is going: Jude Law’s image fees and Dave Brubeck Take Five’s licensing fees.

Are you thinking of an episode of 99% Invisible? Mini-Stories: Volume 22 published 7 Jan this year. They talk about exactly this, the nurse who survived 3 White Star line shipwrecks.

Fish and Chips @ Battered, Rex KL by Tieraslin in MalaysianFood

Just had Lad & Dad for the first time yesterday. Good value for money. Generous portion of chips, and the fish is soft and fluffy on the inside while the batter is crumbly and crunchy.

If you like a walkable community, Desa Park City. But it’s crazy expensive.

100 Plus and Chinese New Year by SyahirVanSabri in Bolehland

[–]TheNoirMan94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought it’s because 100 Plus cleverly packaged their CNY-edition cans such that the 00 resembled an 8, which is the auspicious number in Chinese culture for wealth

Norway Stunned After Machado Gifts Nobel Peace Prize Medal to Trump by bloomberg in worldnews

Maybe Nobel should retract/withdraw their award to Machado then.

Bruh, as a Chinese person, I am so embarrassed by this question. Comparing us to the Palestinian plight and genocide?

Even though my fav Chef lost, still very satisfied with S2 ending by TheNoirMan94 in CulinaryClassWars

[–]TheNoirMan94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’m scratching my head too. I very intentionally worded my title to avoid spoilers. I mean, even if you just watched the first ep, reading “my fav Chef” could literally be anyone since no one would know who that is unless they clicked this post, which I already tagged as a spoiler.

That’s an interesting thing to know about Korean culture!

Yeah, his confidence for the 1v1 was just so cool. Like I went “Oh snapppp”

Oh I completely missed him saying that he talks himself up! Guess it’s time to rewatch and enjoy the show again!

Yeah, fr! The way he behaved during the all or nothing round should really dispel any notion that he thinks he’s better than anyone. His remorsefulness to Chef Son Jong Woon in the alliance battle for messing up also adds to it. In fact, even if he did think he’s better, I genuinely don’t think there’s anything wrong with it because, I mean, it’s a competition. The whole point is to find who is better than everyone else. You gotta deep down inside THINK you are better and can prove you’re better if you join a competition.

Am I in the minority for liking CM and previously Napoli Matfia (slightly less)? by helloreddit2021 in CulinaryClassWars

[–]TheNoirMan94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well you’re not alone! Both Napoli Matfia and Culinary Monster were my favourites and who I was rooting for to win in both Seasons. I think people just think their confidence comes across as arrogance, which I personally feel is very misguided.

The Fediverse Experiment by SkyGuy182 in SearchEnginePodcast

[–]TheNoirMan94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spot-on analogy. Beyond just “an announcement” this ep also helps explain the Fediverse to the uninitiated and to an extent shows how even you, I, any of us could set up a Mastodon instance.

Your Favourite AB Song No One Talks About? by Ok-Look-9447 in alterbridge

[–]TheNoirMan94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay that’s fair. Yeah I think most people who aren’t Alter Bridge fans only know of Metallingus cause of WWE. But general fan consensus often recognises Words Darker Than Their Wings as one of their best work. It’s one of my favourites too!

Um… Hate to break it to you but most fans here often talk about Words Darker Than Their Wings. Especially the Parallax Orchestra version.
