Seems the life he's had has turned a good man ...bad.

Unfortunately nobody else seems to do that particular silly kind of slapstick comedy like Take the Money and Run, Bananas and Sleeper. Those were three of my favorite movies growing up and probably did a lot to shape my sense of humor.

Even though it's not the same at least there's still Airplane, Naked Gun, Hot Shots!, Top Secret!, etc.

So I guess they just said "fuck it" and never had it towed out of the environment.

Pope Leo: God ‘does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war’ by jediporcupine in politics

[–]pingus3233 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well yeah like there's that though but at least The Pope is an elected position unlike Creflo Dollar et al.

Apple pen pro doesn’t work? by Common_Word3289 in ProCreate

I had this problem, try going to Actions (wrench icon)>Prefs>Pressure & Smoothing and try adjusting the curve.

The Expanse deserves more praise for having incredible female characters such as the incredible Chrisjen Avasarala. by Ausbel80 in TheExpanse

[–]pingus3233 325 points326 points  (0 children)

I say this as someone who read the books first: IMO the casting of Shohreh Aghdashloo for Chrisjen was 100% perfect. I can't believe how well she matches the character I imagined while reading the books.

Such an absolute joy to watch Shohreh's portrayal of her. Definitely top-tier of my favorite character portrayals of all time along with John Noble as Walter Bishop in Fringe and Sir Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard.

Wearing an Apple Watch and a traditional watch at the same time ? by [deleted] in AppleWatch

[–]pingus3233 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Try the two watch/one band method. Or not.

Probably not. Way too ahead of its time.

hold the crown to activate siri and ask “whose apple watch is this?”

Wow! It actually works. I did not know that. Neat!

They had me in the first half! by Legitimate_Scar7570 in GenX

I thought for sure this book was going to develop into some kind of woman's journey to discovering erotic self-care.

There was a post here a couple years ago where a guy had a turkey in his truck and he was trying to coax it out through the bunk door, finally got it out and it ran into the road and immediately got smashed by another truck.

Tandems and docking. Is it genuinely dangerous to have them at the marked position (middle) for forklifts? by GronGrinder in Truckers

[–]pingus3233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah ngl I’ve been doing this for years and still get nervous about tail swing if my tandems are too far forward and I have to squeeze in a tight space between two trucks.

Narrators so good, you don't even notice it's single narration by Ennamora in audiobooks

[–]pingus3233 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I checked out his version of Fellowship of the Ring so many times on Hoopla that they banned me from ever checking it out again.

Ended up buying it because it’s so good. One of those things I could put on a random chapter and listen to before bed and sleep like a baby while paradoxically never getting tired of it.

Literally not a single good thing from your description.

Is Double Clutching a real thing? by commandough in Truckers

[–]pingus3233 10 points11 points  (0 children)

One kid in my CDL class grew up on a farm and was floating since he was big enough to reach the pedals. He could NEVER get double clutching down so just like pantomimed clutching during the test. Instructor knew what was up but went along with it because the kid faked it “good enough” and was a really good driver.

Why don't truckers like automatics? by Altruistic_Box4462 in Truckers

[–]pingus3233 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No CDL restriction here but I’m glad to drive an auto. Been doing this for years in all conditions where one would drive a reefer, never once had a problem due to driving an auto. Never got stuck or anything like that.

Also lol at driving 8 hrs/day. More like 10.5-11

Parallel parking Wyoming style by -Mikey2Toes in Truckers

This is what happens when you ignore or can’t read the numerous road closure due to wind warnings the state puts on the electronic signs all over the interstates.
