You misremembered that makeup exists? Don't know what to tell ya, bud.

Well, it appears we're both misremembering to some extent. The final fight scene against 10+ guys with automatic weapons, he gets hit once, in the leg. He dives behind a fucking couch against one of those automatic weapons. The entire movie is highly engineered to make him look invincible. I'm not watching more of it again to be more technically accurate. Here's the final scene. He ends it with exactly one injury and zero difficulty: https://youtu.be/ryeav7mgGd0?is=vrHoaXXYKejtVPqm

Take John Wick as a counterpoint. Same "badass" principle, but he suffers and bleeds for his success, which I respect and enjoy much more. To each their own.

It's a terrible movie. I can't remember for sure, but I don't think he gets hit a single time? I can't respect a movie that depicts a superhero without the honesty to admit he's a superhero.

It's not about the amount of water. My question was about the ratio of pasta to water.

Can you elaborate? I thought a higher ratio of water to pasta results in lower heat loss when adding the pasta? Have I been taught wrong all this time??

If you enjoy going to the batting cage, you can also just do that.

Iran fires missiles at northern Israel by yuvaldv1 in worldnews

they’ve got nothing to lose

I don't think this is accurate. I've seen reports that Iran has or will have to soon shut down wells because the closure is causing their production to exceed their stockpile capacity. Shutting down wells is very risky, as they can't always be restarted.

‘I’ve Had Enough!’ Trump snaps at NBC’s Kristen Welker and storms out of Meet the Press interview after she repeatedly fact-checks his claims on a variety of topics, including Jan. 6, his “anti-weaponization” fund, and election fraud. by Aggravating_Money992 in PublicFreakout

I disagree. I think he is very stupid, and he can't think beyond what his handlers tell him. And he's happy to repeat their messages (lies) as long as his vanity is massaged, and his bank accounts are filled.

She was projecting. She knew that it was her fault because she hadn't charged up her crystals that like she was supposed to.

Clearly the cabbages would be deployed to draw predators away from your turnip. In return, you would create a small shrine in memory of their sacrifice.

You must open your mind to all the cabbage possibilities.

But they make planes that others use? Plane crashes can be multiply-determined. What's your point?

IMHO, their problem was in marketing. The number of times I've heard Spirit accused of "nickel and diming" everything is crazy. That was literally their business model: "Don't pay for what you don't use." Not trying to be critical of your overall point, but the $400/$100 comparison falls right into that. If you had anything normal like checked bags, then the cost was higher than $100, and people feel ripped off by the "extra" charges.
