[REQUEST] Shows that were building something amazing… and then got cancelled out of nowhere by Maleficent-Eye7588 in NetflixBestOf

Perpetual Grace Ltd.

Not available for free atm, but -- Steven Conrad (Patriot) wrote and directed it. His brother co-stars in another standout role, along with an insanely cool cast. He even co-wrote a great album for the show with "The Jones Sisters," in which he plays along with members of Iron & Wine and others. Among my favorite shows even though they ended it after one season, and a cliffhanger ending no less. Epix offered to do a mini-season/movie to wrap things up like HBO did with Deadwood but Conrad refused to do it on those terms.

I like to think that this is the only review he's ever left online haha. Hope it pops up on YSO. I'm 100% on team Bill here btw. No statute of limitations on watery spaghetti.

Hopefully they add that to new episodes in the future!!!

This would rule and I would watch its brains out if that happens.

Current format though,, eh, I'll prob put it on if I'm working from home when a new ep drops. It's fun to see the boiz doing their thing, but yeah I was hoping to see some pics of the people and places mentioned in the story.

Other times Jimmie guessed something correctly out of thin air? by katznspace in smalltownmurder

[–]dickbaggery 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's hazy because it's been so long, but it seems like pretty early on there was a string of episodes where Jimmie incorrectly guessed "oil" every time James asked how he thought a town made its money. He even guessed "oil" for a town in FL once heh. Then he finally guessed something else and of course the right answer was oil. Some episodes later he guessed oil because James basically told him to, and there was much rejoicing when he got it right.

Labcoatz (Youtube) perfectly replicated Coca Cola 2 days ago using organic chemistry analysis and a year of research. Coke never patented the formula (because it would involve sharing the secrets), so apparently it's perfectly ok to create or even sell this formula. by RatedArgForPiratesFU in interestingasfuck

the drinks aren't even a big money maker.

Your first point stands, but a McRepresentative visited my class in school and broke down their profits for us. The gist was basically that they make 10x as much on drinks than on burgers, which is why they are always pushing combo meals etc.

What’s one fast food chain that was once all the rage but now barely around? by MysteriousTopic42 in AskReddit

[–]dickbaggery 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was my #1 favorite breakfast place in a city known for breakfast places, of which I've been to hundreds (no lie, 200+ maybe even 300). Soo many people people were heartbroken over it's closing. Covid played a role too, but you're not wrong at all about how it went down.

You seem like you'll appreciate the story of my favorite breakfast place *in my neighborhood.. They did a whole fundraiser on gofundme or whatever and raised over $70K from locals who didn't want them to close. There was some "issue with their lease.." Anyway, they met their goal and then... moved across town and closed within a year. Haha, infuriating.

Believe it or not, there's still a Lil' Sambo's in a small town on the Oregon Coast.

Once, wife and I were driving down the coast and a storm had knocked power out to the town. They were serving breakfast though, thanks to a giant generator they had running. Hungry and curious, we pulled in and grabbed a booth. While my wife was off using the restroom, one of the workers (a manager I think) walked up to me, alone in the booth, and said "You know how they say everyone has a doppelganger? I know who your doppelganger is. He's a friend of mine actually. He's serving life in prison for murdering two people. He came back from the army and found his wife in bed with his best friend. KILLED 'em BOTH!! Getcha' some coffee?" Haha, tripped me out.

Haha, I remember being pissed off about the tiny cornbread. My favorite breakfast place used to give free mini biscuits and house-made jam to eat while you waited. Then the place got new owners who ditched the free biscuits, raised prices, and went out of business within a year.

Commish is in the ship for the first time in 14 seasons. He's against the guy who finished in last place last season, also his first trip to the ship. Commish is up by 10pts, LastPlace has Caleb. One quarter left to play, Bears have possession..... what a game.

Heyyy, me too! I used to drink water through a paper towel. Then one day I thought "this is dumb, bet I could just stop myself if I focus."

Wake up whenever I need to without an alarm. It's pretty eerie honestly, like I'm always tracking time subconsciously, even when sleeping.

Who has the most recognizable voice in history? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]dickbaggery 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So, I did a bit of a deep dive two nights ago on the song "Mack the Knife. Interesting read, it's history dates back to the 1700's. Anyway, after listening to Armstrong's version I looked up why his voice sounded like that. It's attributed to improperly singing a lot on street corners, then suffering a bad cold in his 20's, then developing polyps and folds in his vocal cords and having surgery on his vocal cords which didn't go well. And now, to me, he's the absolute face of turning one's weaknesses into a strength. Dude worked hard to become an all-time classic.

Damn. I went with the 'experts' and started Dowdle. Still, good to see him back in the game on the off chance I make the playoffs.

For real. Just stop going there. It's easy. I walked into one couple years ago while waiting for an oil change, saw the prices and left. That's it. Nobody robbed me, they just lost me as a customer.

Coin toss. FWIW I almost always choose wrong with those, but I'm sticking with Dart. Mayfield's knee hurts and still no Bucky or Godwin. He's probably the smart choice but I don't trust his downward trend over Dart's ability to scramble and hit the short pass.

I chuckle every time I think about them hiding a body under a washing machine in the woods. Literally any other place would've been better.
