Rick and Morty is just okay. Not terrible or mediocre, not the second coming of comedy clown Jesus or the be-all-end-all to comedy everywhere, just okay. However, that animatic they did of the State of Georgia court case is really dumb.

K-ROSE is the most fun to listen to and there hasn't been a station that entertaining since.

I'd go even further and say it is by far the best game overall out of all in the series. I bought GTA 4 and 5 and have about 2 hours played on each because I just can't get into them, whereas I have close to 1000 on san andreas.

I've never cared for Liberty City in any way, shape, or form, so GTA III, Liberty City Stories, and IV just don't aren't any fun. Oh boy, another NYC-like setting. How *yawns while saying this* exciiitiiing :rolleyes: Saint Mark's Bistro mission in San Andreas was pretty dope, though.

Nothing beat K-ROSE or K-DST out in the desert. Learning to fly at the Boneyard while listening to Creedence Clearwater Revival or Merle Haggard as the sun rose over the desert horizon was something amazing.

Using licensed music, for the most part, is a cheap way of creating an emotional connection to the game world based on people's attachment to the music.

Or, you know, setting the mood, environment, and era of the game. But seriously, that's exactly the purpose of using licensed music, especially when using it in a period piece. I don't find it cheap at all.

Let It Be is a boring lovely garbage album that should have stayed in the vaults instead of having Phil Spector gussy it up and release it. Even the surviving Beatles approved "closer to what they envisioned" Naked version blows rear end, along with the Let It Be movie. Should have left it at Abbey Road, as The End (barring Her Majesty) was a great sendoff for the group.

TBS also has noticeably terrible time compression to fit more commercials in, and that's really lovely, especially when musical scenes or music in general are time compressed. It sounds horrible.

Comedy Central just said gently caress it and start and stop their programming whenever the hell they feel like. On my Comcast guide, everything is hours and half-hours, while CC has poo poo staggered with start times at like 4:17 and end times at 4:51. What the gently caress.

I was thinking about this the other day, I would have enjoyed Scarface if i watched it with zero expectations. Its laughable that film has been built up to be some kind of classic

I only ever saw it last year for the first time, having avoided it for many years because people wouldn't shut up about it and I felt I'd already knew the gist of it through social osmosis, but I was curious since it was on cable and I watched it. Man, it's loving bad. Pacino's Cuban accent, every other word being "gently caress" or "loving" wearing down on me almost instantly (even Michelle Pfeiffer asks Tony if he has to say gently caress all the time), the laughably bad 1980s "I'M SO 80S I poo poo BOY GEORGE" soundtrack, and the message that every single motherfucker who idolizes and looks up to Tony completely misses, but hey, "the world is yours."

If I didn't love Phantom of the Paradise so much, I'd hate Brian DePalma.

I had never had scrapple until my buddy introduced me to it. I think pan fried in butter with a little bit of jelly on it is one of the best breakfast meats to exist. Right up there with thick slices of honey ham with red eye gravy.

Hell yeah :respek:. I just had scrapple for the first time a month ago, having heard about it from an acquaintance from Pennsylvania. Tried it on a lark and it's awesome with eggs and toast.

SPAM is good for exactly two (2) slices.

Exactly right. SPAM is salty, that's why I prefer Treet. It actually tastes like ham and has less sodium. Throw it on an English muffin with runny yolk eggs and man.

Most classic sketch shows are viewed through rose colored glasses and remembered fondly through Internet lists outlining the funniest and most memorable skits only. No one ever revisits said shows in their entirety or at least the majority and remembers the bad unfunny filler sketches that permeate each show, which is roughly about 90%.

I remember buying the In Living Color DVDs way back when because I thought the show was the poo poo back in the day. Turns out it's mainly poo poo, not the poo poo.

It's also the only tolerable movie with Seth Rogen in it. Seriously, what do people see in that guy? "I SMOKE A LOT OF WEED ISN'T THAT HILARIOUS?!?! *sucks a bong* COMEDY!!!"

So basically someone looked at how pink razors are exactly identical to other razors but they're marketed as being somehow "for women" and thereby more expensive, and then thought "oh hell yeah, we can do this to men as well"





ah yes, I was going to save a few cents on the store brand, but this brushed metal plate assures me a spot on the Wall of Tough Guys

Holy poo poo, that's bad. I never really pay attention to MAN©™ products and just buy what's cheap or what I'm used to. I did see Bounce dryer sheets for men and laughed. I just buy fuckin' Snuggle because it smells good.

Elvis is overrated

I used to think the same thing until I heard this song (which I'd never heard before) at random on some SiriusXM channel:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTMm4NEQc1Q

After hearing it, I could see why people in the fifties thought he was charismatic and a heartthrob (aside from the older folks who thought it was the Devil's music). Dude could sing.

I'd only heard his top hits that are played ad nauseum, and those songs are boring. His B-sides and country stuff is ace. Plus, his sixties and seventies output is fun once you start hearing more of it. I'm still not a huge Elvis fan, but I can appreciate the man and his music and what he did for the music world, so I no longer consider him overrated.
