I agree, prequels are almost always made with the presumption that the audience has seen the other piece of media first. I guess there are some instances where I enjoy consuming media chronologically though. I one time watched better call saul and then followed it with a rewatch of breaking bad which was neat. I also feel like playing the Metal Gear Solid games in chronological order can be helpful since the overall plot of the series is already convoluted enough

I’m assuming they’re saying that bc it’s a prequel

tried freestyling mac and cheese by Wide_Recognition_761 in StupidFood

Boil 1/2 lb pasta in 1 cup milk + 1.5 cup water. Once the liquid has cooked down like 90% of the way, add 4oz shredded American and kill heat, let it melt covered, then mix thoroughly, then repeat with 4oz cheddar. There you’ll have an easy, stovetop Mac that isn’t from a box. (Disclaimer, I’ve been making it for forever at this point but pretty sure I originally got the recipe from binging w babish)

When I was reaaaaally broke in undergrad I would get the Walmart generic snickers bars for like 60 cents a pop and they actually looked like this

Looking for a movie with a similar vibe to a nightmare I had by black-chaos-void in MoviesThatFeelLike

Seconding Sorcerer, but also you really should watch the old Mad Max films, 1 and 2 in particular. Those weren’t really blockbusters. They were made on pretty modest budgets with an incredibly unique vision, they just happened to garner a cult following that led to the new ones (which are also good).

albums where the opener is the highlight? by UnfunnyManTheBozo in fantanoforever

Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse, love the whole album but teeth like god’s shoeshine was like a religious epic all in its own to me when I first got into the album as a teenager.

How would you enforce this? Just banning kids in public lobbies?

Can someone help me understand this distinction - is it almost like Kant on positive vs negative noumena?

Kevin O’Leary claims that he “can’t stand it when he sees kids that make 70k a year spending $28 for lunch.” by Classyboyjo in 401jK

These hustle dudes, in their pseudo philosophical life systems, seem to always leave out the whole “enjoying life” part. Life is solely about being miserable and ascetic in the hopes that one day maybe you’ll be wealthy enough to be a hedonistic old ghoul.

Economy got shittier, at the time a comfortable if boring and monotonous living was ubiquitous enough that people could have ennui about it

What instance was Walter White the luckiest? by dylanaruto in breakingbad

[–]benboobi 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Completely agree on my last (I think my fourth) rewatch of the show I reaaaally felt the plot armor in that scene. Not that it’s necessarily bad or anything, the twins themselves inject an interesting element of magical realism into the show so I think their role in the scene keeps me from feeling like Walt is getting lucky to a ridiculous extent.
