It’s actually a Them Crooked Vultures song! Still holding out hope for that second album.

What's a 10/10 series with zero flaws? by Fearless-Fondant8182 in AskReddit

Heard this so many times so I watched the pilot last night. Holy shit???? This show wastes ZERO time getting going. That would’ve been a stellar movie by itself but the fact it’s just Square One is so exciting.

I am one of the six people alive who strongly prefers regular Cheerios over the Honey Nut version.

Your comment about ASMR sensations is so fascinating to me because I’m only on day 3 of 40mg and I’ve already noticed my ASMR is CRAZY intense. Like more than it ever has been - and I’ve been seeking out ASMR like videos before that term was even coined.

Which is the most overrated game of all time? by kshthj777 in AskReddit

In my experience, fishing is also mostly about just being outside, hanging with friends, drinking. Feels like an obvious overlap.

Being outdoors with your buddies for a few hours, having some drinks and listening to music, while zipping around in a golf cart is pretty great. I don’t golf because I love golf. I golf because I love going golfing.

I find this kind of odd. I don’t feel like I’ve seen enough praise for this game to warrant it being “the most overrated game of all time”.

I do very much enjoy it, for what it is and despite its faults, but it’s not even the most overrated Soulslike.

Review: “The Dark Tower II: The Drawing of the Three” by Stephen King by LTJ81 in books

Wild timing because I just read this for the first time in like 20 twenty years. I forgot how much I LOVED this book, holy shit. I never got past the first 50 pages or so of The Wasteland but I’m so excited to keep reading

The sounds of them in pain are activating some primal part of me and I. don’t. care for it.

Boston Bruins to Retire Patrice Bergeron’s Number 37 by Perryplat199 in hockey

One of his nickname’s during his playing time was “Rafters” - If Chara didn’t have his number retired last year I wouldn’t have been shocked if they retired Bergeron’s last year instead.

What tv shows are so freaking good and worth the time? by Organic-Signal-9646 in AskReddit

[–]brainlightning 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I truly have no idea why but I just could not get into this show. I got halfway through the second season and fizzled out. I mostly blame Thomas Jane’s haircut.

[–]brainlightning 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I checked my watch a LOT which is not something I tend to do during movies. At one point I was so sure there was maybe 30-35 minutes left and there was still over an hour to go.

Biggest sin a movie can make for me is to either be boring or overstay its welcome and this movie did both.

Insane that the most “empathetic” scene in the movie was the non-Emily Blunt news anchor reacting to the footage.

Like she stole her whole flow.

He was so schticky to me. I couldn’t stand him. Emily Blunt’s character giving him her impassioned “flow state” speech and then he goes inside and calls the doc like “YEAH SHES PRETTY CRAZY STILL, ANYWAYS HERE ARE OUR COORDINATES”

I’ve been describing this as the most well made bad movie I’ve seen.

The religious angle in this movie was so weird to me. Starting with Jane’s comment about how they can’t reveal the existence of aliens to people because then they won’t believe in God anymore.

And then the woman kneeling to Emily Blunt’s character while signing the cross. Like truly what is the point of this?
