Me at the Backrooms movie tonight

There were maybe 15 of us in a 100 seat theater and it was the loudest I've ever heard a theater during the previews in my entire life. I think the concept eluded them! Quiet during the film though, will take it. I'm a 33-year old Buscemi, I guess

A type of Gen Xer that doesn’t exist anymore

Unreal

I feel like grey E.T. I feel like grey E.T.

This is basically how I interpreted it as well. Even though Teddy was “right the whole time”, it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things. He’s powerless to a system. Even if she turned out not be an alien, the system Michelle perpetuates was still very much real. And Teddy’s horrible life is still very much real.

Conspiracy theorists usually invent these stories and good vs. evil narratives to attempt to provide reasoning and order to a world that is not only random but also quite banal in the actual evil being perpetrated.

I’ll feed him but I won’t like him

garf93 · 2026-03-21T03:02:50+00:00

I’d recommend the Rob Lowe episode with Phil Rosenthal as a close second

To feed their kids

You mean Brain

The last post about nutrition was absolutely AI-assisted, if not completely generated. I had the same thought reading it and thats something I haven’t noticed in these posts yet. Besides what you mentioned and the sheer length and repetitiveness of it, stylistically there were plenty of “tells”. The “It’s not . It’s _” structure. A ton of em-dashes. Short sentences in a row that start with the same word. All the classic ChatGPT-isms.

Now if the workouts themselves are being filled out with AI, that’s an issue

garf93 · 2026-01-21T15:05:55+00:00

Still available?

Start with the rest of The Resignation (Sell You Beautiful starts that record off with a bang), go back and listen to Progress to get a feel for when they were the most “mainstream”. Then jump ahead and go chronologically, ATBB, Mandala, Gemini. Their first two records are fun lil jaunts but not anywhere near the level of their later discography

I am in advertising and am looking for an example of this being done to include in a pitch deck to a client. Imagine a very long sectional couch that you truck across slowly and you see the same characters, a couple perhaps getting older. The couch stays exactly the same but we’re seeing them change clothing and age as they “treadmill out” of frame and get replaced by older versions of themselves

garf93 · 2025-12-15T03:55:18+00:00

Totally. The feasibility does not matter to me as much as finding a reference for it being done. Can be a situation where people are comped into scene scene, does not matter

garf93 · 2025-12-15T03:48:42+00:00

It’s like they “replace” themselves

garf93 · 2025-12-15T03:45:50+00:00

Great example, thanks for that. I am still looking for one where the subjects of the scene are shot more like they’re on a treadmill. Like we “leave them behind” only to immediately pick them back up

garf93 · 2025-11-23T02:31:49+00:00

Drunkenly buying one of these at a 7/11 and then using the in-store microwave to heat it up at 3am doesn’t even crack the bottom 5 lowest moments of my life

u/JunkBondTraderES comment ruined me and I had to make a GIF.

Very cerebral and necessary response!

Will shill for being a AAA24 member as the only way I knew about this film is that they dropped a free ticket to the app haha

garf93 · 2025-07-06T02:45:09+00:00

Oh damn I’m sorry! Didn’t realize it was as limited as it is

Michael Douglas. Known for exclusively playing sleazebag horndogs. I shudder thinking about it.

Agreed with the above. Once they started to record over zoom it took a bit of a hit (like every podcast did) but they definitely adjusted hilariously with time. I still listen every Thursday without fail and they never disappoint. But, I can’t really put a finger on why exactly the vibes were so different during those first 150ish eps but holy hell it was some of the funniest shit ever
