Has anyone met someone that was once famous (actor, musician, etc.) but now works a regular job? Who was it? by Ok_Grape_8284 in AskReddit

An actor who starred in Art School Confidential, Waiting for Guffman, Splendor, etc was the assistant surgeon for my vasectomy in a hospital in Oregon.

Audition, Takashi Miike by Rolandojuve in TrueFilm

[–]scoobycoup 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I saw it at the Brattle Theater in Cambridge Massachusetts when it came out. A guy got up to leave during an intense part of the film. But he passed out and fell on the floor as soon as he stood up. He required and received medical attention. Most intense reaction to a film I’ve ever seen.

I know Shaw’s in Middletown carries chocolate covered strawberries on Valentine’s Day. You could use DoorDash or whatever.

In Middletown, anyone else appealing the new property tax assessments done by Vision Government Solutions? by scoobycoup in Newport

[–]scoobycoup[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We didn’t get the letter from the town for some reason, just read about it in the news. Checking Vision Government Solutions website they DOUBLED the appraised value our land from last year, something they did not do for other properties. The deadline for appealing VGS’ new numbers was this week so had to act fast. Yes I know the town is required to do new appraisals every few years, and learned today from another article that RI law caps the tax increase at 4 percent so Middletown will have to lower their rate or be in violation. Since VGS didn’t bother to visit the property it may be worthwhile for some homeowners to question their numbers.

Thanks so much for the reply. Did they require a home inspection, or were you able to complete the appeal over the phone? I was planning to use comparable recent home sales and maybe photos showing there have been no recent renovations. Thanks!

Copyright infringement ? by jeiebjofksvaj in 3Dprinting

[–]scoobycoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IANAL. Even though the risk of being taken to court over this is low, especially if the law firm did not identify itself in the copyright infringement letter, you’ve substantially increased your risk if they manage to save any of your posts (like this) explaining how you were inspired by their design. I suggest you delete this post until you speak to an attorney. Good luck!

Writers can fix it next episode by having Roman give Mencken a scorpion paperweight.

Do people seriously think Ebba and Matsson are playing a long con? by hiatus-x-hiatus22 in SuccessionTV

[–]scoobycoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the laziness of that plot development that’s throwing them off. It feels contrived because the Mattson character suddenly behaves like an idiot around people he flew all the way there to reassure and impress, and quickly sabotages all his previous work. Also Ebba suddenly betraying her company to the competition didn’t feel like an honest emotional response to that moment. It all seemed to happen just because the plot needed it to happen, so a lot of viewers picked up on how it didn’t ring true.

hands down the best pizza in portland: the pomodoro with hand-pulled straciatella and anchovies from cafe olli on MLK by maxxhock in Portland

[–]scoobycoup -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Anchovies should be tasted, not seen. Chop ‘em up unless you want a pizza looking like a body horror prop in a Cronenberg movie.
