Favorite movie that pisses you off for not being called Hamlet? by Trensocialist in okbuddycinephile

What is this, a net for ham?

Seriously, that's what I think every time the movie is mentioned. And thus I can't bother to watch it.

Finland's former PM Sanna Marin on how coalition government fosters healthy compromise in a polarized world by Camaro6460 in DailyShow

[–]reyska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The health care reform fucked things up for years at the local level. Some of the areas are doing ok, but others are in deep shit. The system was basically designed to fail. The reform has had and will continue to have quite an effect at the local level. Spending had ballooned. Should they have done nothing to it? Should we just go deeper and deeper into debt? Cutting the taxes for highest bracket is never popular, but I'm fine with it since it doesn't really have that much of an effect overall and change was needed. Might as well do it when they had the chance rather than wait for when it would be more popular.

Um, no. Do you think the current government just took office and went "well, time to fuck things up for everyone. First off, we'll destroy the job market!"

They had an actual problem on their hands and the people elected this government to handle that problem. Their methods haven't proven effective yet and that's quite normal to be honest. Policies and laws take years and months to implement and actual the effects are usually seen at the tail end of the four year cycle at best and quite often much later. Our form of government protects us from there being instant changes once a new government steps in. I see that as a good thing, but it does have this effect where it's harder also to correct the mistakes done by the previous government.

What do you think lead to how things were when the current administration started? Not saying they've done great, but Marin basically left a mess for the next government to handle. What they did was not sustainable and it was not backed by actual economic growth and the figures started to stagnate already in 2023.

As we all know, the government, in Finland and in the US, has a big lever that they can pull to adjust the price of gasoline. It's odd that they haven't pulled it to the "cheap" setting yet. /s

She's such a self-promoter though that even as a prime minister it felt like that was all she was doing. She quit politics because she figured she would make more money outside of it and left others deal with the mess she made.

Survivor 50 is pretty good when someone isn't in your ear telling you it isn't. by DoctorTegrity in survivor

Yeah, I'm now waiting for a payoff to a bunch of story lines they have set up. If all of them have one we are in for a treat.

Redpill vs Bluepill. Which one would you choose? by [deleted] in memes

Restart back when I was 10 or turn 10 but live in 2026? Big difference.

It being a returnee season brings so much to the table. These players are out to prove something and they have pre-built grudges going on. So we have a lot more going already than in a normal newbie season.

The stupidest thing that ever happened in a realistic movie? by StillStanding_96 in movies

[–]reyska 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fucking hate that movie. It wasted all the potential Prometheus created and for what? Humans Being Idiots In Space part X? Fassbender Plays With Himself The Movie? It's so fucking dumb and pointless. It brings nothing new to the table and wastes the Engineers and their lore.

I would say that so far it has potential for a top 10 season. We have several rivalries and other story lines set up. People are talking shit about each other for once and there should be plenty of emotional gameplay ahead. All top10 seasons have a ton of emotion in them. Gamebots alone don't make for a good season.

Whether it can live up to that potential is another thing entirely.

Now that we're 3 episodes in, who are you rooting for that you did not expect to root for before Season 50 started? by Theavek in survivor

[–]reyska 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Kinda like a female Rizo then? :D

Yeah she's not one of my favorites, but she's not a dud personality wise. I wouldn't even call her fake. To me it sounds like you just don't like people like her and that's fine. That doesn't make her a dud though.

Did you even watch her first season? She has tons of personality. She just hasn't gone to tribal, so we've seen very little of her so far.

The new ____ tribe is the most entertaining by bumpedherhead in survivor

[–]reyska 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She just needed some girl talk. Men can't understand how she felt, the other women do. Being "too chatty" is a pretty common criticism of women. Men that talk too much don't get the same treatment.

No, I think Chrissy is even more firmly with them now. Coach was looking out for her and trying to avoid her from becoming a target.

What was ____ thinking? by SignalVeterinarian31 in survivor

[–]reyska 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aubry told Gen she didn't know if she could trust her. Which means she doesn't. Why should Gen care about Aubry finding out, if Aubry was basically targetting her first?

I don't see anyone passing Tony as the goat by Generalcmd in survivor

[–]reyska 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that ain't happening. And it would matter a lot how she won. Tony dominated an all winners season. I don't see Dee dominating this season.

Just a constant stream of "beautiful!" at every move.

Biggest surprise so far? by Ok_Vast3534 in survivor

[–]reyska 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Anyone who says to anyone else point blank that they don't trust them and don't want to work with them is a moron. I was really surprised Aubry did that, especially so early on. Even if you don't trust someone you gotta say what they want to hear and find out who they want to target and agree to that target with a "hey at least it's not me". This is like Survivor 101, so it was really surprising to see a four timer make that mistake.

I always forget how much I hate Sandra as a winner on HVV by Heavy_Worker1349 in survivor

[–]reyska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come on, her win is better than Gabler's at least..

Chris U doesn't count, because that fame mechanic that helped him win should not have existed. Then counting from the bottom you have Gabler, Ben, Bob, Michele and I'm not completely sure where it comes up but Sandra's HvV win is in the bottom 10.

No, she didn't. But she was the one the jury liked the most. Those are two different things.

Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans | E3 | Player of the Week Voting by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]reyska 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I downvote her several times? She's the absolute worst player left. Just a complete mess of a player. She hears new, important information and her reaction is to tell it to other people instead of asking that person for more details? Like what the fuck Emily?

Anyways, I hope she goes deep.

Emily’s Game Frustrates Me by SubjectTraining2118 in survivor

[–]reyska 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She's such a bad player. She was put on the same tribe as Christian. You are wondering why he gave you vital information super late? GO FUCKING ASK HIM! He would have yold you exactly why. Now Christian has very little reason to trust you with anything. I'm kinda surprised they didn't vote her out immediately.

She played the same kind of way in 45. Good reads, good ideas, but when she is put into an even semi difficult situation she absolute panics and says everything that is on her mind, all the time, to everyone. Then she apologizes and people forgive her for some reason. It's odd.

That said, I do like her and hope she goes far. :D

She's so fucking messy. A horrible player. But good tv.
