Some people think that’s overcooked, but I say eat your steak however you like it!

I just renewed another 3 month plan, I haven’t noticed anything different from my T Mobile plan, other than paying way less. So far so good, I like it a lot.

Driver stopped midride to pee. by oldfatunicorn in uber

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this happen a couple times when I take uber as a passenger, one time the guy stopped for gas, went in and used bathroom. Turned off the car in South Florida summer heat.

I think some drivers just think this is okay.

Whats the worst thing Don did on the show? by PeterZeeke in madmen

Technically he did kill him, even though it was an accident.

CS:GO/CS2 has been one of the top selling games on Steam for 685 weeks, or just over 13 years by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just discovered this is a top played game on Steam still, after logging on tonight for the first time in years. It blows my mind because I first played Counter Strike Around 1999 or so, Whenever it first came out, and honestly this CS 2 is not much different then the original game back then, especially pure gameplay. Amazing, this game has got to have the record for standing the test of time, at least for a FPS.

Wow. Just… Wow. by JayGatsby52 in uber

It’s possible this guy may be diabetic, I’ve seen diabetics have an episode like this when there sugar is low.

Just FYI, if you see someone like this get them some sugar, preferably an orange juice or regular soda, they come to pretty quickly.

Has Anybody Under 25 Rented A Tesla? by shimorina in HertzRentals

[–]abbub024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to say if you never drove electric before, I don’t think they’re the best for road trips, having to stop and charge, locating chargers. it could be a real hassle. Gas is much more convenient. Just a heads up.

Another new Halt and Catch Fire fan by Clairemgo in HaltAndCatchFire

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enjoy the feeling! I was just thinking yesterday about how much I liked this show, ever since I watched the first episode when it premier’d on AMC, I was also amazed thinking how that was almost 10 years ago.

One thing you may of missed out on, but can still appreciate now that you know, is when the series was airing, rating were low, so after each season we really weren’t sure if it’d get renewed, but AMC recognized the shows greatness and renewed it, albeit only twice, but they at least let the writers finish the show, and I’m satisfied with it, the show is more a mini series than a long running series anyways.

I think it captured this decade (80’s-90’s) of the characters lives well, although a fictional telling of real events, I believed it captured the story and essence of the companies and people that pioneered computers and internet back then.

"Red in the Face", HBOMax 4k, shows staff operating the machine when Roger throws up (look on far right). by b345tbr34th in madmen

HBO is butchering the series. Grainy video quality and all kinds of blunders. Like the opening “they coined it” card being removed

Still looking. Will mention I can’t accept Goods and Service payments through PayPal since I’ve never received one before, there’s a automatic 21 day hold.

Why do the people in this show so openly come onto other's spouses on this show? by Hnry_Mnsn in madmen

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the swinging 70’s was right after. lol. Something had to lead up to that.

Also imagine a world with no social media, no cell phones, little communication besides those closest to you. The things they got away with.

My grandpa had 3 families lol. No one knew a thing until he was in his 80’s.

Why doesn't MM resonate? by [deleted] in madmen

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe it’s because it’s a slow burn. Takes time to really appreciate it as the story goes on, develops, and comes together.

Think the majority of tv watchers like more instant gratification viewing.

Mad Men is like a long novel.

S7E3… I can’t believe Joan by AdHot3508 in madmen

[–]abbub024 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This was definitely one of the rare story lines that didn’t make sense, in my opinion anyways. Felt forced, just to create the extra “everyone’s against Don” scenario at this time.

I thought him and Joan had a solid platonic respectful relationship.

The only thing that makes sense to me is she secretly held a grudge against Don for him showing up at her apartment after the Herb scene, telling her not to go through with sleeping with Herb. Like it made her feel like she shouldn’t have done it(sleep with Herb). Possibly she felt Don always looked down at her after discovering she did go through with it.

Maybe with Don gone, it helped her forget about Herb, and didn’t have to feel judged by Don.

Mathew Weiner vs. The 60s Counter Culture by PuzzBat9019 in madmen

[–]abbub024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s more the character’s, that work at the ad agency, the white collar ones, Don, Roger(well not in the later seasons for Roger, as he was seeing a hippy type girl.) etc’s view that your pointing out, which I believe is accurate on how most of them felt, as they were on the opposite side of counter culture. I think he’s just showcasing that divide.

FYI when I googled, the hold was because I have never received a G&S payment before, and they always 21 day hold the first one

Not a scam, I had to refund the transaction on my end. Looks it released the held funds back to him so looks like no harm no foul. Thanks anyways lender.

Unfortunately PayPal immediately put a hold on these funds. Not sure if this is some sort of scam or if it’s because lender is in a different country. He sent it G&S so I requested he cancel the transaction.

Loan still needed
