blue squares posted:the rare triple negative, folks!! dont miss it That sentence has two different clauses, a single negative then a separate double negative. If you really wanted to nitpick a comma before the "but" might make it clearer but isn't necessary.

Detective No. 27 posted:A local record store has criterion blurays of The Third Man and The Man Who Fell To Earth (no booklets, for whatever reason), for $99 each. I was too tempted, but thankfully didn't go through with it. Back when Netflix was a DVD delivery service I got both of those, should have eaten the 15 dollar disc replacement fee.

FishBulb posted:SURGE PRICING BABY It was a 700% markup, at 8:20 in the morning on a weekday. I paid normal rate when I used them on New Year's eve. I used to talk them up because I thought I'd read they cap their markups at double, apparently I was wrong. I've used them during rushes before and always got a warning saying it'd be 25% extra or whatever, nothing this morning. I'm trying to blow them up on twitter at the moment but I only have like 12 followers so that's not really going to do anything. https://twitter.com/sinclairking/status/817607764675465216 Share this if you want to help publicly shame them.

MisterBibs posted:Apropos of nothing, I feel bad for live musicians at bars. You know they, deep down, want to play their own music they've written. But their audience (you know, white folks in the process of getting drunk) only respond to the covers they know the lyrics to while in the aforementioned process of getting drunk. Those songs are objectively better because they sold more albums/singles/were licenced more, only posers pretending to be cool want to hear music that's not on a top 40 station.

I imagine there are people who need to drive through Northern Virginia who don't live in Northern Virginia and tolls that insane makes it seem like it's a special road only for rich people, which is even worse. It's like how rich people don't give a poo poo about water quality because they only drink bottled water from Fiji.

Maxwell Lord posted:Oh another good remake candidate, Argento's Inferno. Suspiria's untouchable but Inferno desperately needed a stronger through-line. I'd keep all the Three Mothers stuff since that's sort of an interesting idea that wasn't explored well. Also the giant skeleton thing at the end, and the Keith Emerson theme. The opening sequence of Inferno is so terrifying to me that I actually don't really remember the rest of the movie.

Safety Factor posted:So, uh, how did Fallon normalize Trump? I don't watch late night talk shows so I'm not really aware of any interviews featured on them. How are people surprised a presidential candidate was given softball questions on a milquetoast talk show? I'm aware that I am not the audience for this sort of thing, but how influential do y'all actually think Fallon's show and interviews are? Most Presidential candidates don't have as large a body of violent, mysoginistic, racist quotes.

Timby posted:With the majority the Republicans have in the House? There's no way on God's green earth they even entertain an introduction of articles of impeachment, not with the way midterm elections go for the incumbent party. I think Trump is going to be so loving outrageous in his abuses of power that they'll have to, especially since it'd mean Pence became President and he's the Republican establishments ideal President. I'm not suggesting a Trump impeachment would actually make anything better, just that it's a likely outcome.
