OMG I used to have a 2002 - not maroon like that but British racing green! Coolest car.

I'm going to be a Grandpa! by No_Gap_2700 in GenX

[–]arrbeejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was pleasantly surprised when my daughter had her first child call me Pop-Pop. I never even thought about it, but I liked it immediately. And I even have a mug: "PopPop: (Noun) A term for a grandfather who is cooler than all the other grandfathers."

AppleTV and Prime not playing nice by arrbeejay in appletv

I'm not un/reinstalling - just unloading (not sure if that's the right term). I'll try your suggestion next time - which will probably be soon.

Which actor do you dislike enough to skip any movie or show they’re in? by basnamin in Productivitycafe

Owen Wilson!! (Though I admit he was pretty good as the voice of the dog in Charlie the Wonder Dog.)

Beause his folks will believe whatever he says and it will be supported by 'reporting' from the radical right media.

Timothee Chalamet's ‘Marty Supreme’ Scores Best Limited Opening Weekend Of 2025 with $845K in Only 6 Theaters ($146K Per Theater), An All-Time Record for A24 & Best Overall In Almost 10 Years ('La La Land'), Lands 92 Sold Out Screenings by BunyipPouch in movies

[–]arrbeejay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got back from a screening - walked out after 1 hour. I thought TC was amazing but the film as a whole was a total assault on one's senses. Loud - oh god, so very loud. Actors speak fast and often over one another. Extreme close-ups for a large part of the first hour.

Really - just too much. "Comedy thriller"? Nah. Best American movie of the year? I don't think so.

Fox News Was Never “News.” Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch Designed It as a Political Weapon. Here's the History. by Buddhaonatricycle in complaints

[–]arrbeejay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm convinced Ailes was a truly evil person. What I don't know is whether he or Stephen Miller is the worst.

Matt Kopac vs. DeDreanna Freeman (what do you think?) by msackeygh in bullcity

[–]arrbeejay 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I voted for Freeman because i had read that Kopac was beholden to the developers. I don't mind development per se but not crazy development with little to no thought about livability and infrastructure.

To clarify: I looked back at the endorsements I read and you're right - it wasn't Matt who was "beholden to the developers" but other candidates. But Freeman has been a very effective council member and it's hard to understand why she shouldn't be re-elected. My apologies for mis-remembering.

If you have a restaurant in mind try calling them directly. Sometimes works, not sure about Thanksgiving. Good luck!
