yeah I eat rear end posted:I think tacos are overrated, stuff falls out, too much tomatoes usually. Burritos are always the superior option. I guess the only exception is fish tacos because i've never heard of a fish burrito (unless they are those sushirito abominations), but I'd rather have a fish sandwich than a fish taco anyway. There’s a place by me that does an ahi tuna burrito that’s really good but it’s also Sixteen God drat Dollars.

Henchman of Santa posted:I enjoy him but he definitely comes off as a tool and he’s one of those guys whose musical imprint is so deep that every single band he’s involved with feels primarily like A Mike Patton Project. Yeah, if you watch an interview with him he definitely seems to be up his own rear end quite a bit, but he’s undoubtedly incredibly talented. Even though he’s made some of my favorite music, a lot of stuff he makes is unapproachably weird for weirdness’s sake.

yeah I eat rear end posted:People give way too much weight to super old movies on their "best ___ movies" lists. It comes off as a smug purist type thing, like you aren't a true horror fan unless you like this list of "classics". I'm looking for something to watch that I haven't seen before, but not something as extremely out of my normal taste as something from the 1930s. It might be a classic but not what I'm looking for. If you put Nosferatu on your list of best horror movies of all time, I know for a fact you’re full of poo poo. That was a really influential movie but going back to watch it is miserable.

Patrick Spens posted:Count of Monte Cristo is rough, because after Dantes escapes from jail you have several chapters that are basically a Lonely Planet guide to Rome circa 1830 and the appeal of that has not held up at all. It really picks up after you get back to Paris, but getting there is a slog. A lot of stuff like that really, really suffers from the fact it was serialized and the author was paid by the word. Charles Dickens is the worst for this.

That honor goes to those red candy with the hard shell and "strawberry" goo in the center, the ones with a strawberry wrapper. Also lovely saltwater taffy where half the stuff sticks to the paper so you have to tediously pick out the little bits of paper. Or just eat it. I had a friend who did that with waxy paper like that and it was gross, but they seemed to enjoy it I don’t think you can buy those strawberry things, I think they just appear in your cabinets when you turn 70.

yeah I eat rear end posted:My neighbor's excuse is that the dog just knows how to open the door when it's unlocked. If you tell her to just lock the door, she tells you to gently caress off and mind your own business. My parents' dogs are small and stupid, whenever her monster pit bulls get out I have to pick up the dog and convince the dog that wants to eat mine to gently caress off, which is needlessly stressful. It's only the fear of going to jail that has kept those poorly cared for dogs alive. I really don’t know why pits are so good at opening doors. I had a pit mix and he’d sleep in the living room... until about three am when he’d finagle my door open and jump up on my bed.

yeah I eat rear end posted:False. The Gunslinger is a good start but not great. In a vacuum it's bad. There is very little conflict, no resolution. Wizard and Glass has a pretty sharp divide, opinion wise, that seems to mostly be based around when you read it. If you read it when it came out, or relatively close to it, you likely hate it because it didn’t move the plot forward and was the last DT book to come out for years. If you read it closer to 5/6/7 that was less of a problem and it’s easier to appreciate the western story.

What was he afraid of? Was that prepubescent child who gave him directions to the "cafe" at Sheb's gonna bleed on him? Disabling wounds... in a place that without actual medical knowledge? That would just be a crueler, slower death anyway.

She’s too positive and it sketches me out. It’s like when someone always talks about how happy they are- you know who i never see constantly talking about how happy they are? Genuinely happy people. But yeah, her music sucks, her voice is just hard to listen to. The first time I heard any of her stuff it was her NPR tiny desk concert and it was awful.

I just don't think that sort of thing is going to happen again anytime soon since graphics are quickly becoming more and more photo realistic it just seems like smaller and smaller steps from generation to generation. It’s weird, the generational gaps look smaller each time when you’re upgrading, but if you go the other was and play a PS3 game now you’ll keep noticing how crappy everything looks comparatively.

As far as bond movies go, I like Goldeneye and the Craig ones. Spectre wasn’t as good as Skyfall but it’s underrated IMO. I haven’t gone back and rewatched any of the pre-Brosnan ones in years, so I’m not sure if I’d enjoy them more now that I’m older.

He’s usually a little more reserved on those, though, when he’s on TV, though, he’s all 11 all the time and it overpowered everything else the show has going on.

The Lorde cover of Everybody Wants to Rule The World was in a trailer for something and it was so bad. Like, yes, it’s a song with dark lyrics. When you make it all grim you’re getting rid of the way they contrast with the actual music of the song. Tears for Fears songs seem to get covered that way a lot and it annoys me, I have a weird unironic soft spot for their stuff.
