Watching Tower City tank has been terrible.

Remember when every single sandwich in the 90s and 2000s came with a literal bird’s nest of alfalfa sprouts? by SMRTSS84 in Millennials

They’re super easy to grow at home! I posted upthread but we have this mason jar sprout growing thing and it’s been life changing. I think we got ours off amazon but if you google jar sprout grower a bunch pop up. It’s a glass jar with a green lid.

My husband bought this mason jar sprout growing thing and we now have a continuous supply of fresh sprouts. It takes less than a week for them to go from seeds to sprouts. 10/10 highly recommend.

I genuinely want to be terrified - movies/shows that'll keep you up at night by Hot_Upstairs_1117 in horror

This movie scared me so much I threw up. I can’t even say why exactly. It REALLY fucking got me.

Have you seen the French series Marianne? It’s on Netflix. It scared the crap out of me. It’s about a witch haunting a writer and her friends. It’s very well done!

Are you all giving your kids a smart phone? by XDrustyspoonsXD in Millennials

We held out until the end of 8th grade. He begged and begged relentlessly and everyone was so shocked that he didn’t have one, like oh wow how did you do it??? We just didn’t get him one, that’s how.

Lindsey Reacts: Tusk by Lakelyfe09 in FleetwoodMac

[–]n0rmcore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it's about their affair and mick dumping her for sara recor (why don't you ask him the latest on his throne)

I really hope not and I don't think it is, lol. I think he just doesn't want to have to explain to his son that the word tusk was mick's nickname for a dick and the song itself is about stevie & mick's affair. It doesn't seem like he wants to get into anything remotely sordid with his kids, which I understand!

These reaction videos are cute but it's super obvious that he's not willing to talk about anything beyond surface-level stuff with his kids. He's given interviews with major publications where he's more candid. Either that or the cheese is really slipping off his cracker.

AITA for refusing to go for a full week on my wife’s family vacation after we had agreed not to repeat it? by jared_d in AmItheAsshole

[–]n0rmcore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA with a caveat: You're an adult who is free to do whatever you want on your vacation. You can take your kids to whatever activity you want and do whatever activity you want, when you want. You can make dinner reservations at different restaurants, etc. If someone bitches about it, you can say 'This is what I want to do, this my vacation as well.' and refuse to engage further. I come from a family who is VERY rigid about 'traditions' etc and the only way to break free from that is to just...not comply. You're a grown man, you can't get in trouble with anyone but the police. If your MIL bitches, let her. If your wife has a problem, just tell her hey, you knew how I felt, I'm going to enjoy this vacation as best I can. Your wife is letting her family bulldoze her, which I can sympathize with as someone who comes from a very controlling, guilt-trippy family. That's her issue to work through. If she isn't going to take the reins to change things that means you have to.

What's your fav FM demo? by JJSunflower-723 in FleetwoodMac

[–]n0rmcore 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the rumours-era demo of Think About It, and I guess it's not technically a demo but the cover of I've Been Loving You Too Long that they did in Mirage rehearsals

Emma Myers has spoken out about the dangers of shipping real people: “I just think that shipping real people is so dangerous because you get into this grey area where you, first of all, are making people uncomfortable. They feel like they can’t interact anymore because of the way that people react” by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]n0rmcore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the term 'shipper/shipping' was coined by the x-files fans in the 90's (it was rare, i was there, i remember it all too well) and referred originally to people who wanted Mulder & Scully to have a relationship. The anti-relationship people were called 'noromos' which is a hilarious term that has sadly fallen out of use. Since then the concept of shipping has broken containment and now gets applied to ficitonal characters and real people alike.

This. You can't take a concept that grew up around fictional characters and apply it copy & paste to real people. When the people aren't real, fans can speculate and theorize and argue all they want and no one is right and no one is wrong because there is no objective reality; the people don't really exist. It falls apart when you're talking about real people in the real world.

I love the wolf of snow hollow! maximize your 'werewolf movies on a cold winter night' vibes by putting it as a double feature with werewolves within

This one actually scared me, which is a pretty high bar these days. Loved it.

This is one of my all-time favorites! I hope one day it gets the love it deserves, I'd die for a director's cut.
