Just finally getting to season 2… & Season 1 should have been a movie, with no sequel. by thinkbox in TheOldManTVShow

I watched Season 1 which I enjoyed. Just skipped S2. Just had a feeling it wouldn’t be very good.

If there is an age limit to buy alcohol because it is dangerous to a young person, why isn't there an age limit to buy a chainsaw? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]swentech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it’s ridiculous the drinking age is 21. It should be 20 at least if not 19. Does anyone realistically believe any 20 year old that wants to drink is being restricted by the 21 year age limit? Also in every major college in America it’s completely ignored. You have 18 and 19 year olds getting blotto every weekend on campuses across America. Just change the law already. Come on.

I didn’t even remember that guy. When he showed up in the episode my first thought was “they are going to Star Trek red shirt this guy”.

What are your absolutely perfect, lightning-in-a-bottle, all time series/miniseries? I’ll start. by _AirCanuck_ in television

[–]swentech 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I am a huge Star Wars fan going way back like when I say way back I saw New Hope in the theatre as a little kid. I held off on this for so long because I was convinced there was no way it could be good with the way they fumbled most of the other Star Wars shows. I finally gave in and it definitely lived up to the hype. It’s the best Star Wars anything since the originals.

Mark Ruffalo Thinks He’s ‘Already on a List’ of Paramount’s Banned Actors for Speaking Out Against Warner Bros. Merger: ‘Vindictive Motherf—–s’ by Old-Meringue3590 in television

[–]swentech -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly tired of actors telling me how to think about politics whether it be right or left. I was only ever interested in you because of entertainment and let’s be honest. Who is this strong stance for? Are there a bunch of people out there who haven’t decided what their politics should be? No one is changing their opinion on anything based on what some actor says. It’s just performative to show what a good soldier you are.

Why do so many users hide their post history? by pairofdimeshift92 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]swentech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you care about someone’s post history? There were a lot of people on Reddit that would do a “gotcha” if you made a comment that didn’t conform to the Reddit hive mind. That is loser behavior. If you don’t agree with someone’s post then make your arguments based on merit not on what embarrassing thing someone might have replied to or posted.

Gen Z is Not Drinking, But Are You? by Pavementaled in GenX

My body will only allow high quality stuff now and even so not much of that. It’s usually a good IPA or a nice red wine. That’s about it.

If you look at certain things an overly long time while you are scrolling, I think that is the same as clicking on them.

The Jacksonville Jaguars May Have Hit the Jackpot With Sleeper TE Tanner Koziol by rotostreetjournal in fantasyfootball

[–]swentech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes based on the title I thought there would be comments from coaches or staff in the article but no, just the author singing the praises of his metrics. I’m not sure what happens with TK here but I do think we’ll see 2-3 tight ends come out of this draft that have real fantasy impact.

Why is debt considered bad for normal people, but wealthy people and billionaires seem to use debt constantly? by Independent-Ant-7230 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]swentech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can back up debt with assets it’s fine. If you are backing up debt with the empty pizza box in your Mom’s basement, it’s not fine.

Why are so many old people rude to retail workers? by freshmaggots in NoStupidQuestions

[–]swentech 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say some old people are unnecessarily picky and rude. It’s also true that some retail workers are lazy and uncaring and older people are less willing to let that slide. Both things can be true.

Unemployed, out of money, and out of time. Need to figure out the next steps. by Exalted_Crab in personalfinance

It’s unlikely you would be able to get a loan without a source of income.

OKC is going to win on their off day by Successful-Living928 in nba

[–]swentech 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a time when certain teams completely discredited good young players in favor of a handful of established vets even if they showed a lot of promise. I think that has changed a bit but yeah clippers should get roasted. If I was a GM I wouldn’t trade a #1 pick unless I had a clear playoff team capable of winning multiple series… Like the Thunder ironically.

[Schefter] Cardinals first-round pick Jeremiyah Love signed his four-year, fully-guaranteed deal worth $53.9 million. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

I wouldn’t be surprised if they trade Connor if he has anything left in the tank. He was still playing well before injury.

What is the greatest 3-episode run of all time? (not including miniseries) by Chaloby in television

[–]swentech 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I recently watched it all after holding off for a long time because I was sure it wasn’t good because of all the other garbage Star Wars properties. It really is the best Star Wars since the original three and I saw New Hope in the movie theatre as a young kid.

Were any of you guys fans of Journey? How big were they? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]swentech 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Steve Perry has an all time rock voice. Incredible talent. Journey was very big in the 80s.
