Brotato. Ummm, I think I'm in trouble..

::reads through the lyrics to the song::

Hmm, she makes one comment about the town being poor and provincial, a couple about wanting more out of life, and then the rest of it is the towns folk saying she's "pretty but weird" and Gaston saying "she's mine."

I think this analysis stinks.

Can we leave it that way?

I had to go look this up, hoping it was real and not an ai fake. turns out the artist has done a bunch of these!

The Wendy's, McDonalds, and Hardees In my town are all closed or closing soon. They've priced their garbage quality food right out of what the people that would go there can afford. Good riddance. My only sympathy is for the folks losing a job, but working Fast food suuuuucks. I hope those folks find something better.

This may be my pessimism talking, but I feel like PC and Console gaming are probably both going the same route as Disney Theme Parks. If you have to ask how much it costs... If you aren't willing to blindly shell out too much for too little... Gaming won't be for you anymore. When it boils down to it, these things are luxuries. They've found their latest "limited production" excuse (AI gobbling up SSD, GPU, and RAM production) to pump up cost and there's definitely excess demand. Or at least enough scalpers willing to take that risk. Sure the cost spike will probably come back down some once the bubble pops, but if they keep selling out, then why would they ever lower the price again?

Tony, you know why.

::eyeroll:: 71% percent of people we asked an obvious leading question, but mostly already buy their games online and will mindlessly buy all their yearly copies of FIFA, Maden, and CoD regardless.

I mean, I hate Sony and this BS too, but the stink over this "change" is complaining about a horse that left the stable years ago.

I feel seen, very specifically.

Male teen: "I need more protein, I'm working out" ::eats half a tub of Greek yogurt::

I pick up a bunch of on sale the next week and they're still sitting in the fridge a week later. But now the eggs are all gone. ::eyeroll::

"Damn. This is gonna be the coolest thing I've ever done, and I'm not gonna get to see it."

alternately, go classical if you can summon up the appropriate amount of rage... "To the last I grapple with thee! From hell’s heart I stab at thee, for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee!"

I see a lot of people dancing around 2 different points... 1. Fast food costs too much, and 2. The price to value equation sucks now. I absolutely agree with #1, at some point these corporations have to accept that their increased cost of operations (fair wage movements, ingredient costs) do not increase the value of their product. I'm sure they're doing the math... how much can we raise prices before our sales drop off enough to matter. Sounds like they may have finally hit the break point.

#2, I'd argue, has been true for a very long time. Maybe 20 years ago in the days of value menus, fast food was worth it. It was crap, but it was cheap. But food was way cheaper in general, so cooking for yourself was, and still is, a huge cost advantage. if you're careful with your shopping and plan meals, you will eat better, healthier, and cheaper than anything else.

I'm not immune to the occasional fast food stop, but I'm always disappointed. I think it is something that's time has passed and needs to die off.

MAY have?

Definitely effing did.

::glares:: Well done. 😆

Don't get me wrong, Drumph's second term will be bad for everyone. But the climate issue is going to be truly catastrophic on a scale even he and his cronies can't match. There should be plenty of worry to go around.

This. "Lets try it again, just to be sure." ::watches them put it to sleep with the soft power button::

I'm not the person you asked, but I've been on my CPAP for a year now. Yes, it does what they say, but I hate it with a passion. She can sleep, but now I wake up 4 times a night feeling like the damn thing is suffocating me.

I mean, "The Hulk" to most people is the green, bruce banner Hulk. Second, most of the movie isn't focused on Ross's Red Hulk, it is on how Wilson's Cap deals with the situation.

The cynical answer is, the box office draw for the hulk is lower.

As a Bicycle commuter... there's plenty of "Am I the Asshole?" that needs to go around here.

I understand the cyclists are treating this as a protest, but unless the road is closed, get the hell out of the oncoming lane. You're not doing anything here other than confirming the drivers bias that you're the problem.

As for the driver, just fucking STOP until they pass. Is the risk of you hitting someone worth the few minutes that pulling over out of the way costs you? The driver's pissing and moaning on the video is some self-entitled bull shit.

They want pity and/or retribution for him for him, then there's a list he needs to get on. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melissa_Hortman
