muscles like this! posted:We went over this last week, there are two shows that are just called War of the Worlds right now. The BBC one and one from France which is airing on Epix in America. Is it worth subbing to Epix for a month? I can't seem to find it elsewhere.

How did that show Pennyworth turn out? You can sub to Epix through Amazon Channels and I'm pretty sure they have a free trial of at least a week as well. It's the War of the Worlds show French language with sub/dub or is it just a French production but in English. Not that it matters much to me, but I'm just curious.

I hope there's more coming soon, I liked all the characters I was watching some of that yesterday and the first episode ended super quick and I looked at the runtimes and the whole drat thing is less than 2 hours. That's not a TV show that's a movie!! e: lmao the Outsider thread loving hates the show, of course. Gah moody introspective pieces, where's the plot??>??

Also heads up anyone else apparently you can watch the first 3 episodes free in the app so I'll do the free 7 day trial when the rest of the series airs. Oh and I finally found out that it's gonna be 8 episodes. Man there have been way too many adaptations of this same story I hope this one is good. I checked out of the BBC's most recent version after the first episode.

Man we're only just now at the point where movies can portray parenthood as anything but the bestest and most important and meaningful thing in the whole wide world, if anything it pushes the opposite.

Poor guy. I'm certain that's a wig. He's been put through hell and he's still probably not long for this world. What a fuckin shame.  Iron Crowned posted:You have no idea how much I hate that I'm at least partially agreeing with you. That's his gimmick. One out of 5-10 posts is a reasonably good one. It's weird and has thrown me off a couple of times. Anyway I just finished ep 1 of WOTW and it's good so far.

The idea is that you rarely see a child in an american tv show or movie that isn't incredibly annoying or a horrible brat. Sometimes you get lucky and the horrible behavior is balanced by them also being tolerable, but those moments are in the minority. In other words we keep telling young people that children are horrible monsters.

Sure but also the economic reality is that children are expensive to have and raise. It's easy to not care about those things when you're a fictional character and things always work out, now try rasing two kids, owning a home, and paying college loans on $50,000 a year in reality.

But having children myself is utterly inimicable to my lifestyle of "living like I'm still in college just not going to class, oh wait that is exactly like living like I'm in college". I liked college (not classes)

Sunday the rains stopped and the clouds parted, creating the perfect atmosphere for me to attempt being a mechanic. Of course that didn't work out, and as the hours of fighting with my car went on, the kids came out in full force. I know it wasn't their fault, but goddamn when I'm frustrated and sore, and trying to move the tensioner just enough to get a new belt on, their screaming and merrymaking just made it all the more frustrating. Thankfully the damned kids have stopped playing in the stairwell, that was a special kind of hell.

We also live in a world where the oop cost of a vasectomy is like a fraction of the cost of tubal ligation and much safer but men have been programmed for eons to equate fertility with masculinity so far too many don't get it done. I had a guy who has 10 kids tell me that he wouldn't get a vasectomy because "then you're just jizzing in your ballsack" so with logic like that it's no surprise he's got enough to field a baseball team. Once my work insurance kicks in a trip to the testicle man is in order, for sure.

Women also need their husband's consent to have it done. My wife's best friend wanted it done and was refused. She isn't even married!

I knew a woman who had a kid but didn't want any more but her doctor still didn't want to do it because of her age (she was in her 20s.)

When my second child was born prematurely (we also had a history of pregnancy not going well) my wife asked for a tubal ligation. She was 33. The doctor still refused to do it unless I consented. What the ever loving gently caress? It's not my body bud, now do the loving thing your patient is asking for.

Watched the first episode of Breeders and Martin Freeman’s character feels like he should be played by Gervais. A lot of the phrasing is extremely Gervais-esque. Dude’s a jackass but he could play this character better than Freeman can.

On the other hand if you hate kids in real life then its probably not that mysterious why you hate kids on TV and in film.

I know women who have opted for hysterectomies because of medical issues and that's a whole other level of convincing.
