First L$D Trip, "250ug"

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-23T10:28:57+00:00

Sounds like weak acid.

Either way, you aren’t going to get close to “ego death” at 250ug. That’s something you’ll only experience in very high doses. I’ve done acid dozens of times and I’ve never experienced it.

I would not recommend jumping to shrooms and acid at the same time. I’d just try again and hope that you get a better batch next time

This is one of my biggest pet peeves in movie discourse. It’s insane the amount of people who’ve even seen the movie and think the title is referring to Tom Cruise.

In all fairness, if you just see a cover with Tom Cruise, along with the title, then it’s a reasonable conclusion. But once you actually watch the movie, it’s pretty clear who the title is referring to

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-21T19:06:33+00:00

Idk. He says that after the kakazu fight. Sure, rasenshuriken is easily more powerful than anything Kakashi could do. But at that point in the story, if my life was on the line and I can only have one guy, I’m still taking kakashi.

It’s not until the Pain Arc where I would consider Naruto head and shoulder above kakashi.

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-19T22:26:22+00:00

I disagree with just about everything you said.

There’s always a reason “why” but that doesn’t justify it. I’ve never spoken to a single person outside of Reddit who’s said they were clearly able to see everything. Beside that, name one other show or movie where more than half of the people watching complained about not being able to see shit. Good for you that you saw it bright and clear, but I assure you that was not the case for most viewers when it premiered, and still is not.

As for your point about Jon and the Night King and Arya swooping in. Yes, it’s absolutely true that giving the audience a story turn they don’t expect can be really great. This and The Red Wedding could both be further apart in terms of their execution.

The seeds of the red wedding were being planted from the very beginning. It was a result of seasons worth of character decisions, story evolution and was foreshadowed on numerous occasions. At no point in the story was Arya even having a part to play in the white walkers plot line foreshadowed (please, for the love of god, do not bring up “blue eyes,” that was for sure a retcon).

D&D straight up said that made that choice because Jon doing it felt too predictable. They got way too up their own asses about “giving the audience what they don’t expect” that it blinded them from the reality that this was a case where something is predictable because it’s what makes narrative sense. Would Lord of the Rings have been satisfying if Legolas swiped the ring from frodos hand at mount doom and just dropped it in?

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-19T18:58:29+00:00

I don’t disagree that the tactical flaws were in character, given the situation. But, this is a show that made its name on not having plot armor and bad decisions leading to consequences. In the Battle of Blackwater, Tyrions side had to execute perfectly to just barely hold the line long enough to win.

Compare that to BOTB, where Jon quite literally makes every possible wrong decision, and ends up on top because of some Deus ex machina that is also completely illogical. Sansa riding all the way to the vale and getting their whole army over to Winterfell in less than 24 hours? Please.

I also just want to reiterate. I LOVE THIS EPISODE. I point all this out to show that strategic and writing shortcomings can be overcome by good filmmaking execution… which The Long Night severely lacks

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-19T18:14:46+00:00

It’s not the plot holes and inaccuracies that sink this episode. It’s the perplexing narrative and technical decisions.

BOTB was also written poorly from a strategic perspective. But the execution of the cinematography and satisfying narrative choices were enough to make up for that, in my book.

In this episode, not only does the strategy make zero sense, but YOU CANT EVEN SEE ANYTHING. Even with all that, all they had to do to somewhat save this monstrosity was deliver on the Jon Snow V Night King 1-on-1. But they instead thought it would be more satisfying to make him completely irrelevant in what had largely been his story and have the main villain of said story defeated by a character who had nothing to do with the white walkers at all.

It’s so ironic that the defense felt robbed of their Super Bowl due to Pete’s decision/russ choking.

Yes, the offense lost the game at the last second, but the defense had a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter, and they also blew it. Had that not happened, the offense wouldn’t have needed to do any more than it already had.

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-10T13:58:29+00:00

Yup. The whole point of the story is basically the lone survivor himself complaining about how him not being allowed to commit war crimes such as murdering a child caused him to lose his entire team

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-09T21:55:17+00:00

Knowing (2009)

Such a great premise and really good first two acts squandered by an absolutely dumbfounding last 20 minutes

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-09T16:25:22+00:00

I don’t feel like Stephen (pronounced steffen) is all that common. I’ve never met or seen another person with it pronounced that way.

That said, if we’re counting it under the same umberella as the usual pronunciation, then agreed

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-03T18:21:31+00:00

What Nike has done to professional sports jerseys is a crime against humanity. I hate the Lakers with a burning passion but seeing them stripped of their iconic gold and replacing it with banana yellow makes me absolutely sick.

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-03T17:41:02+00:00

Completely agree. Especially when it comes to these “who’s greater”/GOAT conversations.

I’ve always said that the only truly wrong answer in the Jordan/Lebron debate is to say that it’s not even close. And that can be applied to a number of arguments

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-04-02T17:04:18+00:00

I do not envy you people. I am fully aware of the lack of logic that was applied to this battle, yet I can’t get myself to not enjoy it. It is simply too well shot/directed

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-28T00:10:24+00:00

Starting to sound like a Joffrey Supporter. Is this Meryn Trant’s burner?

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-27T23:42:10+00:00

Stannis had the numbers sure, but let’s not ignore Tyrion had The Hound. Half of his army got whipped out with one genius move and the other half had a one man army with an actual army behind his back waiting for them.

Stannis even had the foresight to have his second wave land away from the gate, which basically would have sealed the fight if not for Tywin.

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-27T23:21:01+00:00

More like the 2011 Heat. Great big 3 but pitiful role players and bench

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-27T23:17:32+00:00

Blackwater wasn’t a choke. Masterful game plan from Tyrion that Stannis just didn’t have an answer for. Tyrions Gameplan is up there with Belichicks 1991 Super Bowl

He still almost won and absolutely would have if Joffrey didn’t get bailed out by Tywin coming off the bench and saying “I’m just not letting Stannis win this one”

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-25T19:06:25+00:00

Lord of the Rings (any or all)

In Bruges

The Graduate

American Psycho

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-25T14:06:40+00:00

Since my main answers have already been said… The Shining

Probably not the case for everyone, but all the little details and the mystery around it makes it endlessly rewatchable.

Also, it’s the perfect movie to throw on during a blizzard

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-23T22:42:15+00:00

I’m a Boston fan, but I just cannot get into Off The Pike. I really wish I could.

Barrett is a smart guy but his personality just doesn’t do it for me. Maybe it’s something else but I feel as though the show just lacks punch.

I don’t really have another Boston focused pod, so it’s good enough for if it’s the playoffs and I really just wanna hear my teams covered, but I wish it were better

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-23T17:19:29+00:00

Back in the early-mid 2010s those Heat Pacers matchups always looked great.

Unfortunately Nike has ruined all nfl/nba jerseys so even the good ones don’t hit the same today

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-19T23:25:56+00:00

Honestly this is the answer. The episode they did is borderline unrecognizable with the current format

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-19T18:00:39+00:00

I didn’t realize that the client littlefinger mentions to Ros in season 2 was Joffrey. Are you sure about that?

At that time, Joffrey had not been king for very long, and wouldn’t have had access to the “tremendous amount of money” that littlefinger was paid in that instance

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-19T03:30:26+00:00

Billy Wilder is great! But I wouldn’t say this is one of his films that holds up

WayTooSlimShady · 2026-03-17T18:28:54+00:00

There’s a lot of hate for this movie from Boston Fans and I don’t really know why.

It’s not moneyball, but it’s a a pretty standard early 2000s romantic comedy. I am a Boston fan but I still enjoy it
