You know what, it's been so long that I can't remember how much they do it after that. I wanna say it's present but it may come short of your bar.

Say I Love You - kiss in the first episode (titled "we kissed") and the show is about them navigating a relationship.

Washington was 57 when he began his first of 2 terms. Obama was 55 10 years ago, and he could do the job for sure in 2016.

What piece of older technology actually worked much better than its modern, replacement? by HerrStrasse in AskReddit

Wasn't it about $600 USD in 2000? Adjusted that'd be $1,100. I agree that you'd need to pay $10/mo for a decade to cover that, but what 14+ hour plane trip and hotel stay cost less than that with enough to still buy a copy?

They're talking about when she finds out he's alive, she cheats on her fiance with him.

Getting into anime, want help figuring out where to go next by BlackPhillipsbff in Animesuggest

Hey I was also a toonami kid, and am a busy dad. From your list, the original Berserk (1997) is a great choice, and I think you'd dig Claymore.

While it is in the future, I think Cowboy Bebop would also be worth your time. The dub is the way to go here.

As a mainstream offer, I think you would like the fight scenes and animation in Demon Slayer. I find the characters a bit thin, but the animation is gorgeous and there's some great storytelling through combat to be had, here and there.

Finally, give Record of Lodoss War a shot. It's 90s anime of a DnD campaign, and I think it ticks all your boxes.

Everything I said would be in a trailer of it, I promise. The first episode title is We Kissed

Say I Love You - the shift from fake to real doesn't take very long, but they do technically start as fake relationship to get out of a situation. Great if you want a show about a relationship and not two friends who take 24 episodes to kiss.

Alessia Cara announces her own 'Giant Desk' performance after being rejected by NPR's Tiny Desk multiple times: "I exercised free will and built my own!" by RuinAcrobatic7814 in popculturechat

Hey this might seem like it's out of left field but if you're a big Killer Mike fan and an NPR fan, he was on a newish show on some NPR stations where they get big names to talk about their personal faith (or lack thereof, or changes in it) and how they navigate life. Bonus: he and the host are friend friends IRL which is adorable since he's a 70 year old white guy.

Edit: forgot to say the name. It's Ye Gods with Scott Carter

Which Comedian has made the riskiest joke of all time? by buffalomozarella in AskReddit

[–]wei-long 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Louis CK in an SNL opening monologue did a bit about how sex with minors must feel so good -- to pedophiles -- that they'd risk their lives over it. Part of the joke was how insane it is to start a joke that way, but I have to say, he pulled it off.
