It's very weird that the one professional looking documentary she's done (and it does look pro'ish - check the video), she hasn't listed it on her imdb page or her actors resume page.

This is from a couple pages back but this isn't true at all (at least in the states), most of the people I know with MBA's studied something entirely different for an undergraduate degree


My brother has an MBA from a diploma mill with a Bachelor's from a super high end private university in an unrelated field. His reasoning pretty much boils to "The best business decision you can make it using the least amount of effort and money to get desired results. less than 3k for a master's seems like the best possible business decision." Which I have to admit I respect, plus the guy runs 3 different businesses with a great deal of success.

Difference is he comes right out with how his MBA is a joke and just there to make some clients less jumpy. He even explains it that way to those clients too, which so far seems to have like a 95% success rate.


Maybe that's what SC is missing, they just need an honest crook admitting to the scam but showing that it could still work out for the best interest of everyone anyhow if they play it right.

I just realized that I think the mole in CIG is Ben himself. He wants to destroy Sandi because she took Chris Roberts from him. I see a love triangle here, makes perfect sense.

I regard Ben as the Gold mine that FBI and CIA are likely to hold over a barrel and cultivate.

There's a 2 minute trailer for the show on the 24fps website, and compared to the other stuff Sandi has done, this actually looks ok. I'm wondering why snippets of this weren't put in her showreel, and why she does't mention it anywhere?

Viewers intuitively know the two sides don't fit, even if they can't express exactly why. Our brains know "impossible" when they see it, and simply won't accept that it's a conversation between two people facing each other.

The lighting was obviously set up differently for Gillian Anderson's bit... and they went with the wrong lighting for their patch-up job, which ended up looking like an amateur-hour hatchet job.

Welcome. Excellent observation. I almost wish I HAD watched it now since I worked in film and theatre and could have made relentless mocking shitposts about how stupid a mistake that is . . . nah. gently caress it. The soup was definitely the better idea.

It's pretty clear that he's a far more comfortable and competent actor than anyone else at CIG, and it would make perfect sense that he has seen just how hosed things truly are and has lost all motivation. Now he is just playing along, seeing just how far he can gently caress with people by dropping awesome bombs like how SC should not be called an alpha, nobody is trolling because all the complaints are valid, and none of the systems even exist. He doesn't care because he knows it's all one giant farce and the people in charge are easily distracted idiots anyway.

Jared, kudos. You are the scalpel to Derek's sledgehammer, and I should have seen it months ago. Absolutely masterful work.

Cheese whiz belongs on a Philly cheesesteak objectively. Now there are more refined cheeses that can go on a steak sandwich but if you're going with tradition you gotta go wit whiz.

cheese itself is pretty gross (take some milk, add some bacteria and let it coagulate, maybe finish it off with literal mold) so don't get all high and mighty about processed cheese-foods ok

It's not meant for a refined culinary experience. It's bread, fried steak, fried onions, and cheese sauce. You can use real cheese but it doesn't taste as good IMO.

There are plenty of ways to experience good cheese. I loving love a good cheese plate. A philly cheese steak is not one of those ways.
