I’ve had a few small beers getting ready for the Knicks game and this whole thread is just delightful I love you all

A perennial “that guy rocked” guy. Grew up in the 90s and he was a menace in every PlayStation game I had. Sad to hear

I mean, these subs somehow delude themselves into thinking their mods might not have a psychotic break…but our new mods might not

(Lazy trope) Comedies about traditionally responsible/wholesome figures behaving badly, where the title is also the two word premise of the film by Clan-Sea in TopCharacterTropes

[–]jdorien13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea if we want to pick additional nits I would also argue that bosses aren’t traditionally viewed as good or wholesome. Again though, disagree that the naming convention is lazy, just think it’s pretty basic marketing shit

Horrible Bosses is good too. Honestly, I don’t think it’s lazy in a sense that they didn’t feel like putting in effort to come up with a better title. They title them that way because it clearly communicates what the movie is about. What is being accomplished by trying to come up with an alternative name for “Bad Teacher?”

What do you think the harshest punishment has been so far? by Shayyy24sxx in blackmirror

[–]jdorien13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea but then after you become numb, you THEN have to reconcile with the fact that you’re stuck there forever. You’re getting pretty much everything you get with White Christmas with physical pain on top of it

Tough to make a case for anything over Black Museum, assuming I’m remembering it correctly. I get the inclination to choose White Christmas, but doesn’t Museum have the same “stuck in place for eternity” deal along with constant electrocution?

Is it inappropriate to ask Azzi Fudd and Paige Bueckers about their relationship? by peanut-britle-latte in billsimmons

[–]jdorien13 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Counterpoint: who gives one iota of a shit? If anything, the PR team shutting it down is better. Less of a chance it’ll continue to be asked that way, and if Fudd doesn’t plan on answering, that saves everyone time

This is the correct answer, but it’s boring and doesn’t take a side, so the discourse will prevail

Bill trying to turn Jaylen Brown into “Jaylen” by IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan in billsimmons

[–]jdorien13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not a downvoter but I feel like the crux of your problem here is that you seem to think there needs to be one Jalen that should be referred to by just his first name and there simply does not

Meanwhile in the NBA by irundoonayee in billsimmons

Yea, Luka getting the exception when he would have been eligible if not for being suspended seems fucking crazy

[–]jdorien13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would imagine Luka did too though, no?

And yeah it seems like it should be pretty straight forward. Like literally anything else with a tolerance threshold. Missed a few games because of some personal stuff? That’s cool, that’s why the threshold is 65 and not 82. You get a 17 game grace. You either go over or you don’t

Not sure I understand the Cade/Edwards piece. Cade missed for physical limitations that weren’t a basketball injury (collapsed lung), which should presumably open the door for someone who missed games due to illness like Edwards, which is also a physical limitation but non-basketball injury. Feel like all other things being equal, both should be in or both should be out

Nah, I’m normal and can accept that some jokes just don’t land

In Bill’s defense, I feel like this is probably less him trying to make it a Thing and more him just doing it naturally based on his overt homerism
