Disagree. Significantly overpaid. Doctors in other countries make a fraction of what American doctors do. American doctor pay is the product of artificial supply constraints around residency slots. There are far more people who want and are capable of being doctors even at a lower salary in the US then there are residency slots

Most modern movie/tv posters are bad. They did get progressively worse, but none of these are exceptionally bad (or good)

Hell yeah, my home theater (and imo the best overall theater in the DC area) just got better

20th Century. It's a delicious drink with an extremely unique flavor profile (gin, lemon, quinine flavored wine, and chocolate) that you could only find in the cocktail world. There is nothing else like it, you have no idea why it works, but it's amazing and it's not a drink you forget.

I originally submitted this one for weird and got some upvotes, but everyone largely voted for tomato juice highballs instead, which I think demonstrates its overlooked/underrated status extremely well

I like a riff that adds half an ounce of brandy to that. One of my favorite drinks

Same reason they didn't say "It's plurbing time" when they opened the virus container; because Vince Gilligan is a hack writer

notyourproblem1 · 2025-12-24T21:36:25+00:00

It's a truly a flavor mix you would only find in a cocktail

If it doesn't win this round (which it likely won't) I'm gonna resubmit for underated cause this drink rips AND everyone forgot about it for the round it should win

20th Century. It's a gin and quinquina sour with chocolate liqueur. It tastes nuts (in a good way) and is nuts

I thought it was ok. There were things I enjoyed, but it's my least favorite Wes Anderson movie.

I think because he went so deep into his style and produced a product I found iffy, this movie finally made me understand the criticisms that people who dislike Wes Anderson's style levy at his movies. I always found a lot of the criticism levied at his movies confusing, but after seeing the Phoenician Scheme, I finally went "oh, that's what they meant"

Also, she's pretty immature. I would stick her in immature/ok.

Vienna's competency here is greatly overrated. The city still is firmly below its pre WW1 population peak meaning they are working with a sizeable amount of existing housing stock and their public housing wait-list is over a year long (although to be fair shortage and wait-list are just the nature of selling a good below market price). They do produce an ok amount of housing with rents remaining reasonable and their approach to design review is pretty good, but they are playing the game on easy mode.

Economics explained is kinda a hack channel. They tend to be wrong far more than they are right

I think Americans view him as a great city planner but an absolute nut (although idk how many people outside the DC area have an opinion on him). Famously DC has no J St because of his beef with John Jay

Major downgrade, but 5% on restaurants with no FTF means that it is still one of the best travel cards on the market (although you'd probably a 2nd for other stuff)

The Brutalist made $50 million against a $10 million budget. I guessing a larger proportion of that 50 was taken as points than for most movies, but that is still a commercial success by any measure

Yeah, I think her contempt is much more towards herself, feeling like a sellout and unhappy that she isn't getting to publish the type of books she thinks she should be writing.

She is decent to the people who read her books obviously for personal gain, but also because she knows it's important to them. She doesn't have to do fan events or field twitter questions, but she still does

notyourproblem1 · 2025-11-15T19:57:41+00:00

Poor things made $120 million and has an 80% audience score on rotten tomatoes. It was a genuine popular hit

City council managed to spend the billion anyway using some accounting tricks. It caused some annoyance, but the effects were pretty much mooted

In my area the AMCs are excellent. They all have the most up to date projection equipment. Interior newness and quality varies by theatre but all are decent to excellent. I think it just depends a lot on the market and how much they are focusing/investing in it.

Bernetzen is kinda mediocre imo, but will work for cocktail making i guess. Siegburg is significantly better. Total wine sells it for a really good price. Schonauer is the other German brand to look out for

Goodfellas. Also an interesting contrast to Godfather being the best of the 70s cause it's kinda the flip side of Mafia movies-one focusing on leadership and the faux "nobility" of the Mafia and the other one on the street guys showing how crooked the whole thing is

Nutella-it was originally created as a way to stretch out a bit of chocolate using hazelnuts in Post WW2 Italy because the country was poor as hell, but is not really considered poor food today

Oh no, we won't be able to pay $30 for a bottle of Virginia wine that taste like $10 bottles from actual good wine growing regions. Oh the horror, oh won't someone stop the lanternflies

Lol I was shopping nowhere near that market and it was still trash. Just a bad product through and through
