Disagree. I enjoy binging more.

Have you seen TFA and TLJ? Rey goes from thinking the Force was a myth to beating Kylo in less than a day and pulls off one the most impressive telekinetic feats in the entire franchise at the end of TLJ with zero training.

That still doesn't make those scenes you pointed out as them taking shots at her. And yes, I've seen both films.

Doom_Art posted...

And Luke mentioned in 8 that her lack of training or proper understanding is dangerous, like it was a not negligible part of the film lol

That too lol

That's not really a "shot" at Rey considering she was trained by Leia.

It has to do with spirituality and the planets aligning in a specific rare way.

Oh I thought you meant MCU flops.

Why would you think that when you specifically said "Disney's size and scope" was what worried you ?

SquirtleSkwad posted...

I am admittedly unaware of their flops that you're mentioning.

A Wrinkle in Time, Solo, The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, Mulan to name a few. There's more but they aren't as infallible as you seem to fear.

SquirtleSkwad posted...

As excited as I am for a lot of Disney content, their size and scope worries me. They could basically pull a South Park at this point and run an ad that says "Fuck you, you'll watch it." and people would throw their wallets at them while complimenting them on their wit.

You are aware Disney has had flops in the past few years, right? This isn't a thing you should be concerned with.

Pretty sure most people, on average, have a lot of free time right now due to the pandemic.

If you mean "free time" as in "out of work" then yeah. Of course, being out of work doesn't equal leisure time. If anything, you have to hustle harder.

SquirtleSkwad posted...

You could just catch up with the time you'd use to watch this show every week. It's really not that big of a task.

Um, you have no idea how much free time a person does or does not have. And no you couldn't since this show will, at best, be an hour and only 10 episodes or so. That's a lot less time than watching the entire MCU.

SquirtleSkwad posted...

If you're not into the MCU by now, you probably weren't going to be.

Another thing that's patently false. People are just NOW watching things like Star Trek: TNG.

SquirtleSkwad posted...

"It's been done in the past." is not a good defense of anything.

It is when the argument is acting like this is a new thing. Or that they only complain when it comes to women doing these things.

I mean, 22 films is a lot to catch up on for some people. This makes it more accessible for new viewers. I don't see the problem with it?

Mike_Stanton posted...

So why not do the saber throw that he did in RotJ when he was in an identical position minus the lava?

You mean the move he probably thought of AFTER this incident?

SquirtleSkwad posted...

I'm gonna be holding my breath for a while. I want it to be amazing, but I don't want to get ahead of myself.

I think Civil War, IW and Endgame have shown they know how to juggle multiple characters well.

pretty sure in the trailer he is in Okinawa and runs into her

That was Daniel's gf from Part 2.

Nice job working BENGHAZI in there too lol

These people are nuts.

The way I always word it is that "Some of y'all (black people) sound just like the white people you hate."

It's very true, unfortunately.

No.

He's 100% correct.

Alternatively, you can drape a wet paper towel over the plate and the same thing will happen. It's actually better and should be done when re-heating anything in the microwave.

Because being able to walk in 30 minutes late and take a two hour break is a nice perk

Why would you lose that perk? You said you'll never be fired, right?

It sounds like the dumbest thing isn't writing the letter, it'd be actually going through with your threat.

nothanks1 posted...

Its the dumbest thing Ive ever done because Im basically never getting fired but yes finding another job would take two weeks max

How does that make it dumb exactly?

Also then why post this right after:

nothanks1 posted...

Im so getting fired

Jiggy101011 posted...

Maybe TC has money saved up and works in a position where finding a job even during a pandemic is easy.

If that were true then TC wouldn't have opened with this:

This is definitely the dumbest thing Ive ever done

Honestly, how do you guys play these games? Because I do it wrong, obviously. It's like three hours of intro walkthroughs via a talking cat giving you a bunch of stat info you have no use for as a beginner. Then you go grind some low level herbivore dinosaurs with no real help in terms of progress.

I've only played World and can say that it is NOT like you describe. You start fighting actual monsters pretty quickly. Maybe that will be more your speed?

The memes from that last match have made this all worth it lol

Great things in this pic:

1. Mickey is clearly high af
2. Daisy is missing and they're serving bird. Donald obviously knows she's dead.
3. Snow White and Cinderella are making "sexy time eyes" at each other and Dopey is the only one to notice it (hence his excitement)

Lisa Raye got cheated on too, though.

And she hasn't been relevant since Player's Club.

Goota cook em with garlic and butter...then you just kinda put em on stuff. You know like people do with pinto beans or green beans....maybe so.e hotsauce too.

I've tried them multiple ways. Everyone thinks they'll have the "right way" to cook them that I'll love. Not happening. Just not my thing.

Love spinach, though.

I think was based on an old OKC research experiment. Im not sure that data as relevant now, especially with pandemic affecting things.

Simp posted...

probably that OKCupid thing from like a hundred years ago that's a bitch to find now for some reason: https://web.archive.org/web/20091121080804/http://blog.okcupid.com/index.php/2009/11/17/your-looks-and-online-dating/

Ok, thanks. Yeah 11 years old data is pretty outdated. And it's also only using their site as a source.

Being unattractive sounds terrible. I wish you guys the best of luck

I feel bad for laughing as hard as I did at this smh lol

And what constitutes a "Top Guy"?

Wutobliteration posted...

and how many men do you think even get to have success in hookups from dating apps to begin with?

That's right, that same 10%.

There's the Pareto rule that applies the same to dating apps. 80% of women going after the 20% of top men. This gives to a surplus mindset for most of 80% of women who have the other 80% of men going after them.

Where are you getting these numbers from exactly?

It's still overall a blip on his career that lasted a couple years, plus there had to be massive petitions. Without those who knows what would've happened.

People act like cancel culture isn't real when it's effects are mitigated by others trying to fight back against the bullshit. But just because a large part of society comes out and fights the cancel culture fire, doesn't mean the fire wasn't there in the first place.

The question is who's life/career was ruined. James Gunn's wasn't, so yes he's a very bad example to use here. A "blip" is literally a very small thing.

Hayame Zero posted...

I feel like a lot of people use the whole algorithm thing as a crutch or excuse for why they haven't had any real results with it. The honest fact is that most guy profiles actually really suck. Most of the ones I've seen from ones who want a critique just have half-ass selfies for pics, and come off as more pessimistic or desperate than fun or interesting.

Not only that but, when they do finally make a connection, their conversation skills suck. They aren't engaging, witty, funny or really interesting to talk to.

Online dating is like shooting fish in a barrel if you have common sense and some sort of "game" about yourself.

jeffhardyb0yz posted...

The only people who complain about online dating are the people who are bad at it

I gotta agree here.

It's also weird how some people think this is something women primarily do to men. I'd be willing to say men do it more, especially after sex which is way worse than doing it after a couple of conversations.

ssjevot posted...

Don't people routinely insult others by accusing them of being a virgin or incel?

Online and in junior high, sure. Not in real adult life though.

Balrog0 posted...

The latter, though I think I've most often had mustard greens. Not 100% on that

Gotcha. I'm not a fan of any of them lol which makes me weird for a black person.

Balrog0 posted...

Greens lol

You mean as in general vegetables or collard/turnip greens?

monkmith posted...

big fluffy rolls, fresh from the oven.

fresh from the can, still with the ridges in it...

not sure why, but i only like the canned cranberry sauce.

Yes! That's what I was saying on the OP. You folks get it!
