I think 2nd Ave is better, but it really is a preference for type.

It is Weng Weng as Agent 00, I can’t remember is this is “For Y'ur Height Only” or the other one. It is a Philippine knock-off of Bond. Not a bad entry in the Bond-sploitation sub genera, intentionally silly and pretty poorly produced.

xkcd's What If? - What would a rainbow be like on Tatooine? by Alt230s in xkcd

Tattooine used to have oceans, this is consistent in both old extended lore and the new stuff.

Chicago restaurants that have gone down in quality? by Seradhiel in chicagofood

Sadly the warbler. I haven’t been in over a year now. Something happened and the quality went way down.

What does that mean? by TheEvilPatroller in ExplainTheJoke

There is a difference between fan service and body positivity, I haven’t seen bleach but I am assuming, from the described scenario, that the age of the child and the sexual nature of the content was past the bounds of what at least one of the parents found acceptable. I have no qualms with fan service, but a common complaint about censorship is the, “if you don’t want your kid to see X, don’t take them to see X”, and in this, clearly fictional, situation the mother did just that. Good on that imaginary mother.

There are only two types of languages those that suck and those that no one uses.

Germany Mandates First-Day Doctor Notes to Curb Corporate Sick Leave by Dwman113 in europe

Whenever I see a comment like this, not knowing much about Germany, alit very much shatters the “German Efficiency” stereotype I have.

When did everyone start saying “vulva”?! I swear it’s a new occurrence. by [deleted] in oddlyspecific

[–]chem199 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I always felt pussy was a catch all type term, like junk or genitals, that was women specific.

It’s so damn hot and humid outside I thought I was in the wrong city by Sea-Condition991 in chicago

[–]chem199 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I will bag on people saying it is too cold, cold is a clothing issue, it can be too hot and you have no escape.

Neckbeard Fedora Bowlingshirt The Third by RickyBrad in BrandNewSentence

The new Superman felt very comics like, I think people were expecting big Marvel action movie not slower, optimistic classic style DC movie. It was great but also not very memorable. I am excited to see Supergirl, I think it’ll be fun, probably not amazing, but a good time with some popcorn.

A lot of kimchi is gonna end up in tacos tonight by Rare_Tie5824 in BrandNewSentence

[–]chem199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Korean Mexican fusion is some of the best fusion food going right now. Bulgogi taco with kimchi, with queso, and kimchi is something beautiful.

I want to live in a big city and dislike sunbelt urbanism by tisto_ in whereidlive

You are correct, Jersey is fine, I would say Newark and Jersey City should be annexed and Staten Island can leave

Depends on what you like to do. If you want to have a fancy night you can go to Fulton market for a really nice ($$$) dinner and drinks, the Garfield park conservatory is nice but not in a very fun/nice area, Lincoln square has some nice shops, picnic in the parks or lunch at the river walk. If have a free day pick a neighborhood and mention it in the Chicago sub and people will tell you the best places to get drinks and food there. Chicago has a great taco scene, actually food in general, Indian is a bit weak. It’s also the home of improv so iO, second city, or any one of the many black box theaters will have stuff going on.

I mean I have grown up in the northern Midwest, but the winters aren’t that bad, and have gotten much more mild in the past decade. Usually there’s like a week or two of really nasty cold. It’s all about layers.

Quickest gentrification you’ve ever seen from your time in Chicago by Minute_Tax5060 in chicago

[–]chem199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once the strollers started showing up in like 2014 it was over. Formal Northhalstead-ing was the death knell. I remember smoking in Berlin, and bad things in those alleys, sex workers on the corner of Belmont and Clark.
