Google glass. Sounded like we'd all be wearing these glasses that we'd not be able to do without, but even looking back that sounds like such a poor idea. I try to not be on my phone as much as I can, I can't imagine wearing glasses with an interface in my direct vision constantly, especially when a lot of it would be shit like emails, LinkedIn notifications of people I might know, and my siblings sending me 12 Instagram posts in a row.

Touche? More like 'En guarde', amirite?

First thing I thought of when I saw the post, and your comment was the first I saw!

Andor is amazing!

I don't think their exoskeletons allow for that, I think they just grow in size as opposed to getting disproportionate weight gain like a big belly

It was Mitchell and Webb! 😁 "Good, simple food, cooked simply! It's easy" "It's easy because you did it, I'm clearly not very good at this if I'm on your show, and you've done things on your plate that might be simple to you, but may as well be magic to me! The only reason we have people in there now is because you're here!"

I think that it's a few factors. Some movies that were longer started to be accepted, like the summer blockbusters creeping longer and longer and people not complaining much about the length. Then streaming picking up more and more, and with habits of binging it became apparent people were happy to sit for longer and longer times watching content (shows, documentaries, movies) and then with COVID and people looking for things to occupy their time longer content was welcomed more.

Though with your list of things you don't like in films I'm not sure you really like films at all? Talking scenes are usually important for dialogue exposition, reflecting the characters mindsets etc, but why do you hate fight scenes and comedy scenes? What kind of movies do you like?

Shamrocks are pretty recognisable too.

I loved using Reddit Is Fun, and I couldn't stand the amount of bots on Reddit in recent years

Don't cats and dogs eat grass to settle their stomachs?

Giant space squid my ass, it's probably just Milhouse

Can confirm, zero clue

Thought for a minute you were going to say Sexy Sax Man https://youtu.be/GaoLU6zKaws?si=jdPgpAw12HX0YqzP

That's some reassurance that they're doing this the right way! I really want this to be good!

I'd be the same tbh, in Ireland here, and I'm so fed up with constant updates for my TV 🙄 yeah it's handy that the remote has buttons for Disney+ and Prime and Netflix, but honestly it's not needed at all. Same as not wanting Bluetooth headphones or earphones, I don't want to have to worry about not being able to use earphones because they need charged 🙄 hard enough keeping my phone charged often enough without carrying around a charger pack. There's a lot of inconvenience with 'convenient' products.

That's really fuckin cool!

So many great bits in it too, I have always loved Riddler's crocodile tears over his boss's death only to snap out of it momentarily to give the most suss information possible lol

"I found this in my cubicle. You'll notice that the handwriting matches his exactly, as does sentence-structure and spelling...." Sobbing

LOL

No need to even mention Seal and U2 because those songs were fire. Not the biggest fan of U2 but that song is a jam.

Last time I went to the cinema it was a small screen, and had a bunch of teens just taking the piss. It's to be expected at this point, but it really compromises the experience of going to the cinema. They ended up getting shouted at and they eventually behaved, but for a movie with a fairly quiet first few scenes they wouldn't stop with shitty one-liners, saying how they'd fuck the lead actress, and throwing their food at the screen.

This is what I pay to go to the cinema for? When I saw Spectre there were a group of teens taking photos with the flash on, and laughing constantly. Entitlement and selfishness are what ruin the cinema experience for most people. Then things like the hygiene of others etc - being in a hot cinema with someone who hasn't bathed recently and is just stinking of a few days of BO is really off-putting lol.

Yooo! Byyyyye!
