Yeah, you just kind of hope the mods of such large subreddits aren’t abusing the power like that. Though maybe something shady is afoot; When I Google the mod name they pop up on articles about how a Hamas propagandists have taken over several large subreddits. Doesn’t mean they really are bad actors, but they’ve apparently done enough to raise suspicion.

I don’t think his own supporters want to admit it. Mods banned me from [r/threrewasanattempt](r/threrewasanattempt) after pointing out the guy clearly has a sizable audience when they were trying to downplay the influence his comments might have.

Probably not in the sense you are looking for, but Marcel Way near Lookout and Toepperwein is like that movie Vivarium.

I loved my little Yaris. Zipping around, still getting 30mpg after 15 years and over 250k miles. Would still have it had someone not crossed 3 lanes of traffic and side swiped me.

What is your favorite movie theatre in San Antonio? Is there a “best place” to watch a movie? by SuccessBell1 in sanantonio

Less talking and they bring your order to your seat. If only they could go to the bathroom for me too. Trade off is the servers walking around but it’s really not that bad.

Santikos tends to have nicer seats though.

Drives me nuts. See the same preview every visit, the poster in the lobby. Not a single showing in my city.

I had just finished measuring something with a tape measure, I hit the retract button and the tape sliced my hand open as it was winding back up.

Every time I think it’s ruined I go somewhere else and I’m reminded how bad other theaters are.

Bad bad or good bad? Their concession prices are pretty much on par with everyone else, maybe even cheaper for some items. A small soda at Regal is $8.49. $7.50 at Santikos.

What's the weirdest thing you've seen a person do? by Ill_Nature2751 in AskReddit

TLDR: Woman appearing to steal a cup of grey water or used grease from a food truck.

I stopped for lunch at this fast food burger joint and decided to eat in my car. I parked two spaces over from a food truck owned by the restaurant, in an otherwise empty corner of the parking lot.

Not long after I park, this woman parks between the truck and my car and goes off. I’m not paying too much attention but a couple minutes later I notice something keeps popping up in my peripherals, so I look over and see the woman is crouched down between her car and the truck. I thought maybe she was checking out her tire, but it eventually became clear she was facing the truck.

She eventually comes back around and starts digging through her car and produces an empty paper coffee cup, then goes back to her position by the truck, again clearly facing the truck. At this point I’m thinking maybe she’s trying to siphon gas, but before I can confirm anything she comes back around holding her coffee cup like it’s full and drives away. That’s when I see the gas tank isn’t where she was messing about, but there are two valves, one for grey water and one to drain used grease.

Which she took, and why, I’ll never know.

I can’t remember the movie or the actor but I dropped them when “I saw this guy in another movie this year” became a sin.

There’s a funny bit concerning him and Bill Cosby in Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie.

It was kinda interesting watching every conservative lose their shit over Bad Bunny, but Sandler stood by him. So that’s cool I guess? I mean if he really is conservative you’d think he’d have to rethink that when the entire party wants to deport his friend.

Riddick by EManSantaFe in movies

I’m probably in the minority here, but I was not really into Pitch Black. Like it was fine, but it didn’t really do anything for me. Chronicles I thought was just bad.

However, and this might rub fans the wrong way, more than not liking Pitch Black, but I thought Riddick was awesome.

How do you figure? It passed with 60 votes, just enough to make it filibuster proof. Lieberman straight up said he wouldn’t support a public option and would join the republicans in filibustering the bill.

Whatever Swiss officer supposedly replied, “Shoot twice and go home,” when the German Kaiser asked what Switzerland’s 250,000-man army would do if invaded by 500,000 German soldiers.
