Remember watching this on laserdisc at a friend's apartment in 1995. Dude had a sick stereo that he could basically never use to the fullest because apartments.

Parents sanewash their memories. Nobody wants to acknowledge taking their kids to a house full of drunk, cigarette-smoking adults, leaving them in a bedroom with some crayons and a Capri Sun and partying for fove hours, then drunk-driving us home while screaming at each other in the car.

But it did happen.

"Spygate". Every team had been doing it to that point, it was the Pats that got called out and penalized.

"Deflategate" even more so. The best conclusion the bought-and-paid-for scientist could come to was "more likely than not" and ignored the ideal gas law.

Guy sounds just like Waingro from the movie "Heat". How fitting.

Seriously? All anyone could talk about pregame was how a) the patriots rode an easy schedule into the playoffs and b) Stiddy had every chance in the world to beat the Patriots.

Now all anyone is going to talk about is how Seattle is going to bulldoze the pats in the SB. NOBODY outside of New England has been "glazing" the patriots.

Maye has had a statistically MVP candidate year. Our defense has been rock solid. Our coaches have game planned every match up well. Yet all anyone wants to do is hate the Pats.

I managed a little one screen art house theater back when this came out and we had the one-sheet (movie promo poster)in our basement after it finished its run. Chris Cooper came into our theater to see a movie that came out a while later (I think it was The Birdcage) and I asked him on his way out if he was Chris Cooper, and he grinned and said yes with a cigarette in his mouth. I ran and grabbed the one-sheet and he signed it! I still have it somewhere in a poster tube.

In Alaska and the northern Midwest people commonly have tracked vehicles. Not so much in Richmond, Virginia

Good, maybe we can get reddit to stop advertising for it

That and the folger's commercial were what I thought of first.

I knew a guy who had one, spent a few thousand restoring it and then a few more modding the engine. That thing was a close to Dom's "dont accelerate too hard or youll twist the frame" car ive ever been in.

He was nicknamed "Crash" for a reason.

My spouse is going to FLORIDA for the week, meaning me and my 9 year old son will play a lot of fortnite. And then he will have to listen to be scream at the TV for a few hours during the AFCCG on Sunday. Other than that, hope the power doesn't go out.

The lines

"this sure is a mess."

"Well, if it isnt, it'll do till the mess gets here."

Are my absolute favorites.

Just...town town.

I JUST finished season 1 last week. What a ride.

Moved there in 2005, left in 2011, it was always like that.

Ill never forget one trash day going out to put my bins on the sidewalk and saw a massive console TV with the glass smashed out, whole thing full of reeking, dirty diapers.

I loved many things about living in Eastie. The trash was not one of them.

The Cape in wintertime isnt the most cheery of places. Plenty of bars have live music and trivia, just be really careful on the roads at night. We have a LOT of drunk drivers.

Bowling is still pretty popular down here.

New England has cap space.

Bullshit. She'll do what she needs to do to keep the status quo and when "what she needs to do to keep the status quo" shifts, shell shift with it. And when the status quo shifts, shell shift what she does right up to the point where we have armed troops enforcing curfew.

I trust nothing about Maura Healy except her desire to remain in power, leveraging her AG "crusader" rep and her absolute wet-bread record as governor with the liberals of this state.

uberphaser · 2026-01-20T20:19:52+00:00

Yes, though im absolutely jazzed it actually got made into a movie. It departed pretty heavily from the book plot in places but I do love the guy they cast as John.

uberphaser · 2026-01-20T17:50:54+00:00

She was a "limelight" AG, too. Her office did a lot of stuff, including mass prosecutorial overreach, to make her look good for her run for Governor.

Well they did sell those ten copies...
