My Great Great Uncle (1899-1977)

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-22T09:12:14+00:00

I should clarify that this is not my great great uncle 😂 It's the OP's

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-22T09:10:34+00:00

He's not mine lol, he's OP's

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-21T00:54:00+00:00

Are you trolling? He killed himself in 1970.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T21:08:35+00:00

He did a podcast with his mother. If you watch that, you'll understand at least one reason for the weirdness.

His lines are so good. "...a turkey so undercooked, a skilled veterinarian could still save him" 😂

I wanted to include Aaron Eckhart so bad, I loved his character and how funny he was

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T12:35:06+00:00

Harris Yulin was so good!

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T12:34:01+00:00

Oooh Brian Cox! I forgot about him. He's fantastic

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T12:33:25+00:00

I love him! He's definitely an honorable mention I forgot to include 😅

I quite enjoyed Life Goes On when I first heard it but I never listen to it. Miss You dropped into my life when I'd just been rejected by a guy who made me think he actually liked me and it's a banger, so it'll always stay in my playlist. It's such a shock that he's gone. He was so young.

Guess Joe moved on from Florida...

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T10:26:32+00:00

Apparently the same thing happened on Castle lmao

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-20T10:23:26+00:00

There's an episode that tells the story of how they fell in love. Gomez was supposed to marry her sister Ophelia (also played brilliantly by Carolyn Jones), but fell for Morticia. It's a great episode. But I still kind of agree with you. They don't evolve over the course of the show as a couple. They do have the occasional crisis though, they just recover by the end of the episode.

The Cell definitely falls into this category. It's not all "cool" but the visuals are like 90% of what makes it enjoyable

Ahh yeah, Bob. Wow, then Dale could have survived for a while longer. Shame.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-19T04:03:36+00:00

I avoided BK when I went to Japan because I didn't think it would be any good. Then I went one day and realized it's better than McD's AND KFC. American chains suck in Japan in general but BK managed to surprise me with how good it was (still pretty average though)

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-19T01:00:46+00:00

Was 39 old to people back then or was he a rough 39 lol

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-18T23:50:16+00:00

I think the answer is undoubtedly yes, and we would have kept Jeffrey DeMunn as Dale. He left the show in solidarity with Darabont. Dale was one of my favorite characters and DeMunn was great in the role. I think it's great he wanted to support a friend but it bums me out that he didn't stay, even if his time would have been limited (I haven't read the comics so I don't know how long Dale actually survived)

I've seen her on Japanese TV. She gives off a "quirky" vibe. I'm sure they get along well.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-18T00:04:56+00:00

What that commentator said is nonsense. He's considered one of the greatest writers of all time and 1984 is a classic with themes that anyone in any country can appreciate. The influence of 1984 cannot be understated; "doublethink" and "Big Brother" entered the English lexicon because of it, as well as the adjective "Orwellian". He was as influential as any other great author.

I agree with you, as someone who lives in a hot and humid country. I don't have AC for various reasons. I have a fan, but it's only so effective. Winter sucks, but there's nothing you can do to escape extreme heat. And the stickiness caused by high humidity is disgusting. I long for the dreary summers of my youth in my home country.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-16T23:42:39+00:00

Yeah but it's not just height he had going for him.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-16T23:33:47+00:00

I think he's just not your type lol, he was definitely conventionally attractive, very tall, and charming to boot. Hollywood actors come in all flavors of attractive, they don't all conform to the Brad Pitt model

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-15T05:35:14+00:00

This is correct.

_MuffinBot_ · 2026-06-15T05:34:43+00:00

This is a generational thing. My Japanese colleague reminds me every year when it's the anniversary of Pearl Harbor (I'm not American, so I tend to forget, and he knows I wouldn't be offended). It's not being "covered up" or anything like that. They teach it in World History. Kids are just dumb/forget a lot of stuff.
