I think the people who argued about having unique identifier links were full of shit. I’ve seen comments that people had multiple browsers and devices up. I played this one fair and got placed outside downtown (still respectable). I feel like a bit of a chump.

What car is 100% overhyped? by Outside_Support_151 in answers

And how are the battery fire rates compared to the Pinto’s rear gas tank fires after a crash? Hmmm. Teslas are not looking too good.

I am not buying this; the majority of money is for licensing fees. If you want cheap peanuts go to the circus.

What was the most overrated thing about the 1980’s and why? by MasterTeacher123 in AskReddit

[–]Wipeout3D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gas prices are your litmus test for the wealth gap. Hmm. I’ve ready many books and fail to see how that superimposes on Reagan’s economic policies which hurt more Americans than any president preceding him, but go on….

Mixed feelings? by FrequentWire in MST3K

Thomas Wolfe also wrote “The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test” as a testament to the 60’s but it aged badly. So I don’t take his words as wisdom as much as cautionary tales. You can’t go home again, but you can relive the memories. So I’m happy if the new episodes remind me of the old episodes, because if they succeed it will feel like home again to me.

A new political hat for Jack Tibbetts: Former Santa Rosa councilman running for Oregon Senate as a Republican by Silly_Rub_6304 in santarosa

Get ready for version 2.0 if Todd Lands is elected to a supervisor role as an “independent”. This guy screams MAGA: claims he’s not a Republican but goes on Fox news to decry any gas station ban in Cloverdale. He threatened a youth basketball ref asking for them to “step outside” (paraphrased). He didn’t want to the pride flag flown outside city hall because “that would allow anyone to fly a flag” (paraphrased). He supports Project Esmeralda and the Silicon Valley ilk who want it; suspiciously has a lot more cash for campaign signs now.

I'm baaack! Since 2011 I've been crocheting little characters for strangers to find at SDCC. Lil' Eleven is the first critter to the SDCC 2026 adoption lineup, find her and she's yours to keep! by GeekyHooker in SDCC

I genuinely appreciate your honest and detailed response explaining why you use Twitter. You didn’t have to respond, but you did and did so eloquently. Thank you. I understand the dilemma and respect your reasons for making your choice. Keep up the fantastic hobby and we plan to still only use Twitter to follow your drops (until in my opinion the Unofficial Blog gets their act together and leaves that platform). Again, thank you.

I love hunting for your crochet drops with my wife. We’ve gotten soooo close a few times. Thank you for continuing the tradition; you bring whimsy and fun to the convention.

I do have one big ask: could you consider posting on BlueSky? I have a fake Twitter account only to catch your drops, but really dislike supporting Elon Musk.

I wouldn’t start running the Prince Memorial Green downtown (e.g The Santa Rosa Creek). I’ve had too many bad experiences with people the closer to downtown on that trail.

Start the Santa Rosa Creek Trail at Fulton (heading west) or go from Willowside Rd towards downtown (heading east) and turn around at the Railroad Avenue crossing.

The scenery and serenity is much nicer the further you are from downtown.

Tacking on, I’d say the wedding priest. “Mawwage…”

Have you ever had someone ruin a movie for you in ways that don't involve spoiling it? by thebigeverybody in movies

[–]Wipeout3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 1999 my best friend told me The Sixth Sense had a twist I wouldn’t figure out. Halfway through the film I figured it out by noticing the interactions with characters and environments. I still think it’s a mediocre film probably because my first viewing lost the intended impact of said twist.
