I'm staring at this post, mouth agape, like it was Mick Foley being thrown off the cell and through the Spanish announcer's table. I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it, but I can't look away.

beats for junkies posted:All that dude needed to say was "What." and it would have been enough. He's way too mad about a weird commercial. There hasn't been a really off-the-wall one like this in a while (or maybe there has and I never see them because I don't watch tv). I kinda like that it starts out like one of those heartstring-tugging "could be about literally anything" commercials (I was even thinking "what dumb brand is this gonna end up being a commercial for?"), then it swerves hard to the left and drives off a cliff but doesn't fall to the valley below because nobody involved has looked down yet. Insanely hyperbolic and performative overreactions are everybody's gimmick, and it's been that way for the better part of a decade.

On that topic, and pertinent to the thread, which of these are the worst, because I can't tell: YouTube 'personalities' who thanks to algorithm-driven recommendation weighting have preview images for every one of their videos set as near-identical shots of their faces, in close-up, with an expression of extreme goofy surprise. They are incapable of reacting to anything that they talk about or exhibit at anything less than 100db and maximum display of emotion and quirk. Or: Generally quite astute or entertaining youtubers who produce watchable content, but who eventually goof it up with an ever increasing amount of nerd-culture focussed schtick and framing devices/storylines that surround the actual content, which eventually rivals what they're ostensibly talking about in both complexity and volume of lore and which renders their content cringeworthy and unwatchable.

RagnarokAngel posted:Channel Awesome in general can be charged with that sin. Definitely the first one to spring to mind. Lindsay Ellis has been so much more watchable in recent years since she escaped from that bullshit (and also didn't have that gently caress the nostalgia critic pop up to mug for the camera/gainsay her in a bunch of her videos). It's also what's stopping me from showing my girlfriend the red-letter media takedown of phantom menace, which is a pity because embarrassing crap aside I know she'd dig it. (Speaking of schtick overtaking content, the amount of time wasted on the crappy storyline seemed to increase exponentially by the time they got to revenge of the Sith, and made that video unwatchable even if you go into it with the intention of just ignoring the crap.)

The Bloop posted:i mean regulations aren't magic force fields, just a compromise with the mob There are states in Australia that have had zero community cases for months on end. Speaking as someone who will absolutely die if I get covid, our regulations by and large have been absolutely appropriate to the situation - helped enormously by the fact that people are generally sticking to them quite well.

Fun fact: about 15 years ago Aussie mainstay Vegemite decided to release a new variant of its incredibly salty spread, with a cheese flavouring. They held a contest to determine the name of the new flavour. The winner? After massive public backlash and buzz about what a poo poo name it was they changed it to a more sensible 'vegemite cheesybite', which made everyone wonder if it was some sort of new/classic coke marketing gambit to court attention.

Given that the Australian Zinger burger has a heat level that's best described as "someone whispered to the chicken that white pepper exists moments before it died", I hope that this thing is actually worthwhile. That said, the only McDonald's product that I've actually ever really enjoyed was the spicy crispy chicken they sold in China around '98-'99, and it was proper spicy. Like, after biting into it it would ooze oil that was red with chilli, and it compared favourably with actual Szechuan food in terms of how spicy it was.

The best cottage pie is where instead of using the normal mix of beef and herbs, you cook some chilli con carne (minus the beans) and use that as the filling.

I've been meaning to ask the local Rabbi about the concept of a Mobius eruv for the longest time, but I looked it up online and turns out for an eruv to be valid you also need the stated permission of the owners of all properties within the eruv.

This is like the third time in the last couple months I've seen a thread get an extended "what do you mean that *word/phrase* has negative connotations/is an outright slur? I for one have never heard it/don't think it's actually all that bad really" derail and this poo poo is starting to appear less like clueless/sheltered loving whiteboy goons and more like a high pitched whistle.
