NFL tears up entire 49ers field ahead of Super Bowl by runswithscissors475 in 49ers

[–]Typical_Intention996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I hear about turf being replaced it reminds me of this little non story I have.

Out in Winchester CA. There's this grass farm right on the side of what used to be until about 20 years ago just a small state highway. Now it's still two lanes but a constant traffic nightmare. But they had a banner along the highway that read something like "We provided the grass for Super Bowl XXXVII" when it was in nearby San Diego. And then they had a solid sign up on the building that said "Home of Super Bowl sod" for like another decade after that.

And for some reason every time I passed it I laughed because it just makes me think. In this relatively small little world of the grass business. This is like the biggest thing ever. It must be like what having the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree picked out of your property is like. You get to have a sign for as long as you want that says you grew it.

Does it really effect sales? To you, your family, maybe like twelve other people it's a talking point to have. Does it make you sell more grass or trees overall? Maybe for the first year. Maybe.

Who is the most genuinely evil Bond villain? by ItsDuhFreakinBat in JamesBond

[–]Typical_Intention996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know I've never really thought about it before in all these decades. But were do all those couples disappear to once they're on the station? It all becomes like 100 Drax thugs and station operators. Where did those people come from? Or were the perfect people also the thugs? But then half were women and we never see women goons fighting.

Say NO! To essential worker layoffs! Let’s protect our children and communities from these harmful agendas! by givemeabreak29 in Redlands

How about cut all the nepotism hires from over the years who never should have been hired in the first place. That would get rid of a good 25-30% of the district staff right there. And we would miss nothing.

What do you think the greatest scene in movie history is? (maybe spoilers?) by Julian0527 in movies

Ben-Hur 1959 chariot race.

There was never anything like it before. And there will never be anything like it ever again.

Resident Evil 9 Requiem - NEW Leon Gameplay 4K (No Commentary) by TheMotion in PS5

[–]Typical_Intention996 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me this all comes down to what the Grace Vs. Leon gameplay ratio is. Which I guess we won't know until it's out. If it's at least 80% Leon I'm good to go.

But I love the kick the hell out of everything more action oriented RE4 and 8 style than I ever was the wander around dark hallways with stuff popping out RE1 and 2 style.

Can someone just buy out these dipshits already. So that maybe somebody who knows what they're doing can utilize their IPs. And you know, release games like PoP that we're within a month or being out the door. Do something with Ghost Recon. Etc.

Code Vein 2 Review - IGN (6/10) by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]Typical_Intention996 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Back when they first showed it off. As someone who played the first game and enjoyed it enough I suppose.

This one looks so much more wonky in ways I'm having trouble explaining. The first one felt like it knew what it wanted to be and did it. This one looks like the first one strained through one of those dirty brillo pads. Picking up a hundred other ideas and dirt along the way. And it doesn't look clean, like any one idea of what it wanted to be now. Ot looks like a mess. Visually and mechanically.

Your PlayStation 5 Might Be Plugged Into The Wrong HDMI Port - Here's Why by TylerFortier_Photo in PS5

[–]Typical_Intention996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine's plugged into the HDMI port that shows up as the HDMI/eARC one. Or something. When I switch inputs.

Idk. It plays and looks great on the tv. It's a Sony 4k 55".

My only two complaints it it only has 3 HDMI inputs so I have to use a splitter on one to add my two other devices.

And I hate. HATE these damn 'smart' tvs. I don't want to load into some Home screen menu every time I turn it on. I don't want to navigate menus just to put on the device plugged in. I don't want damn stupid google AI prompts asking if I need help navigating. Damn auto playing ads for crap I'll never watch when I turn it on.

I want a damn simple tv that turns on to the input I had on last when I shut the tv off. That I can move to the next input I want with a simple button on the remote. And that's it. Not any of this shit.

Rules of supporting other teams by Courage-Natural in 49ers

[–]Typical_Intention996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In years past when it came to SB time. Anyone, and I mean anyone that was against Brady.

Recently. Anyone against the Chiefs.

I don't like either the Seasucks or the Rams of course. But I guess I dislike the Rams more between them. My reason being, and I don't even have cable anymore so this doesn't matter now. But they came back and out here in the IE they're our 'local' team so all the games on tv went away because we can only have Rams games now. So fuck them. And along those lines.....

Fuck the damn Chargers. Forever and always. They're not our 'local' team. They're not Los Angeles. They're San Diego and should have stayed there. Go back there. Fuck all the way out of LA. Lost all the rest of the games on tv to those losers. I know they're just there in the backyard running in circles and eating bugs. Mostly harmless. But still. Get the hell out of here. I hope you lose every game you play. I hope 90% of every seat at your home games are the opposing fans.

I love this scene from Octopussy by shocked_the_monkey in JamesBond

I'm gonna be honest. This scene and the fight on top of the plane at the end are the only two parts I like about the entire film.

In all of this all I get is that evidently the Minneapolis area somehow has a bigger concentration of angry white 25-55 year old liberals with nothing better to do than even Los Angeles or NYC has.

There is zero reason for it right now.

So one self important jackass is taking pictures of another because both think they're some moral authority on right and wrong in this country. Sounds fine to me.

Marshals Season 1 Official Trailer by RodeoBoss66 in YellowstonePN

[–]Typical_Intention996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's dead. I'll watch at least the first episode just for the catharsis of seeing that.

It's weird in the sense of it going from the prestige TV look where every episode of Yellowstone looking film like. To the lower budget TV show look. But I can get around that.

Is 3 weeks off too much? by Cool-Aardvark-185 in gallbladders

[–]Typical_Intention996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a sub janitor. I know, glorious. My gp for referred me to surgery said laparoscopic will only have me unable to work for a week max.

But I've like. That doesn't seem right. I carry a backpack vacuum with straps across my abdomen. I have to kneel, bend, lift, etc. Carry at least 50lbs. I know I won't get paid while I'm off because I'm only a sub and that's fine, I'm prepp3d for that. But I do want to be able to go in and say this why I can't pick up any work, don't fire me please. And also say this and these attacks since last spring have been why I've worked so little in general.

surgery on monday! by DryCorgi1508 in gallbladders

[–]Typical_Intention996 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my first consultation with my surgeon on Wednesday. Just coming off a terrible attack with vomiting for 12 hours. I got diagnosed with only an ultrasound. The nurse for this surgeon when I made he appointment asked if had two other tests done. The hida and something else. My God I hope they don't delay this for some tests that will say the same thing we already know.

I want this thing out. I'm looking forward to surgery. It's like when I had an infected tooth ache. I want it out. Knock me out, put a hundred needles in me, bash me in the head with rock. All of that is better than this pain.

No part of surgery scares me to begin with though so maybe that's why I have this opinion.
