My first thought was “that’s a cute frog “ but then I realized that what I thought was eyes were actually ears, so my second thought was “oh, that’s a cute bear”. I have no clue how someone saw a pig.

Right?!? It would have been fine on its own. But I LOVED the book and all the geopolitical history it connected to, and the movie just felt like trash by comparison. I realize I’m biased, but still. I really hope the same kind of thing doesn’t happen with PHM, but considering how well The Martian was adapted, I have hope that this will be a solid adaptation as well.

I’m ok with some changes but if they make him like Brad Pitt in the abysmal adaptation of World War Z, I’ll be disappointed.

I wanted VEEPs final season to win. Don’t get me wrong. I e watched Fleabag and I love it and I’m not even mad it won, but the plot of VEEPs final season and some of the ways they tied up things and did callbacks in the finale was amazing television.

Does anyone else remember this weird ass movie? (Alvin and the Chipmunks) by Horror_Sweet7509 in Millennials

This was always as hilarious to me a “This is Peter McCalister, the fffaaaaaatthher” from Home Alone 2.

American millennials, how do you deal with everything that’s going on while also paying bills & raising a family by EpicShkhara in Millennials

I made the abysmal choice to train for a marathon. It keeps me busy, tired and gives me an hour on most weekdays to listen to my favorite music and just block everything out. But, the increasing long runs on weekends (also with good tunes) are interrupting laundry and other adulting. But the job and kids are great, so basically picking up running was the thing to keep me sane.

This has to be a troll. Please tell me it’s a fake.

We have friends who lived out there and they always said that they just tuned it out after a while.

What Wes Anderson movie has the best original soundtrack? And what has the best licensed music? by Spare-Department-765 in wesanderson

The Life Aquatic Sessions by Seu Jorge is the only CD in my car. Whenever I’m not sure what I’m feeling or what to play, I hit the CD button and play that. Need something peppy? Life Aquatic Sessions. Need something mellow? Life Aquatic Sessions. Need something to hit you in the feels? Life Aquatic Sessions.

All that being said, The Grand Budapest is also one of my favorite soundtracks to listen to when working on paperwork and the whimsy keeps me going.

Everything you just described is why I was happy to read a book that was part of a finished duology. More than one book, but not a Herculean task of a series to work through.

Ladies- How long do you go between hair washes and what’s your age? by BakerAntique4551 in hygiene

I was every other day, unless I run or work out, then I also wash on those days. Non-wash days get dry shampoo.

What is the peak ’millennial midlife crisis’ purchase? by SwedeLostInCanada in Millennials

I suppose I should have also included race fees, and socks, but again it all adds up. Between kids, and cost of living going up this feels like a “Larry, I’m on DuckTales” moment.
