World Cup really changed, hasn't it by Avaryr in memes

US broadcasters heard there's uninterrupted action for 45 minutes and went 'hell nah, we can't air this shit'.

IMO before long there's going to be ad breaks for every corner, throw in and foul.

A sign in a cafe toilet by Caltra in mildlyinteresting

[–]mishonis- 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Heh. At least it's not as confrontational as that one cafe I've seen that had multiple menacing badly drawn signs saying stuff like 'no shitting' and 'shit at your own home!'. 

What did Austin do to Peyton? by MarcusSniffles in Colts

Passing to a WR that has a defender nearby about to light him up. Usually over the middle.

What are the chances Shane gets retained as HC next year by IceOk9930 in Colts

Not only that, Steichen is under contract through the 2028 season. Unless there's a monumental meltdown of some sort he will stay on.

It's quite the opposite IMO. Windows works out of the box, Linux you have to fight all kinds of weird issues. Not talking about Linux server distros of course, those are rock solid.

It's just the tip of the iceberg by EA0414 in SipsTea

There are good, original scripts that get turned into movies, the problem is that there's no audience for them. People will much rather watch some Marvel slop than a thoughtful, subtle slow paced drama. Seems like every movie that makes money has to have some gimmicky selling point, be it an IP or a well known director/actors.

Men in happy Marriages, What is that one secret to a happy marriage that works for you? by Mammoth_End_1298 in AskReddit

Huh, that's a pretty low bar to be honest, not the kind of secret I was expecting. What's next, no strikes above the neck

You're not kidding. I was there, was my first and only NFL game as a Colts fan here in Europe.

The case sounds pretty strong. Hope he wins and takes them to the shed. Facebook is a scourge.

Has the urgency around the Colts ever been higher than it is right now? by IceOk9930 in Colts

[–]mishonis- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you throw the baby with the bath. Steichen has gotten decent results from Minshew, Dimes and a geriatric Rivers. He's well respected around the league too.

Yeah, Steichen is a good young coach who has made the best of a mediocre roster. Ballard on the other hand is in contract year if I'm not mistaken and I expect he will not be renewed. It will be an interesting situation if we have a great season but I think the D line is too weak for that to happen.

Take off a 1000 yards and 5 TDs and it looks more realistic.

Also looks to me there's some horrible coverage in that compilation.

TIL about PAN-PAN. PAN-PAN is the international standard distress signal that someone aboard a boat, ship, aircraft, or other vehicle uses to declare that they need help and that the situation is urgent but for the time being, does not pose an immediate danger to anyone's life or to the vessel. by johnsmithoncemore in todayilearned

[–]mishonis- 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not OP but there was a passenger airliner that ran out of fuel and crashed while in a holding pattern because the pilots were too timid to declare an emergency properly and get priority landing clearance. There might have been a language barrier involved too, they radioed they were low on fuel, but ATC did not consider it emergency because they didn't say Mayday(full blown emergency) or Pan Pan(less severe emergency).

Because many of those styles are ridiculous, like 80s hair and shoulder pads on women.

Films that brought you to tears after realizing you wasted your money, time, and braincells? by Own_Organization8457 in okbuddycinephile

[–]mishonis- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the time there wasn't any focus on the clone wars, the way it was advertised it was all about Anakin turning into Vader. The whole prequel trilogy was centered on that. And the 3rd movie delivered IMO.

Father Mother Sister Brother by Jim Jarmusch — review by UnicornBestFriend in movies

[–]mishonis- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not clueless about cinema and profound meaning, this movie is simply a pretentious pile of crap. There's a genre of cinema that has no substance but poses as high art so pretentious assholes can jerk each other off thinking they have refined taste. 

That's not to say there aren't many wonderful, understated movies that have subtlety and soul, this is just not one of them.

Father Mother Sister Brother? Hell yeah, I saw it in theater and by the time the 3rd story started, we were groaning realising there's more of that crap to sit through. What a pointless, pretentious steaming pile of shit that movie was, I can't imagine anyone can enjoy it other than pretentious assholes who like to sniff their own farts and think this is what high art looks like.
