  • I might have suggested that one instead, but I just rewatched Pillows and Blankets last night!

    There's also the Dreamatorium episode but that's a whole other mess.

    Can't wait for the movie!

  • Community, season 3, Pillows and Blankets.

    It's a campus wide pillow fight between two friends / armies done as a Ken Burns Civil War documentary.

  • I assumed this when she ended up with an wrist brace.

    Had she actually been hurt at all she would've insisted on a full cast.

  • The recipients signed off on the sale.

  • I was so invested in the OT... and no more movies came, so I accepted there wouldn't be more movies.

    As such when they came out and were shitty, I didn't mind as much.

    That's made it easier for me to dip in and enjoy some of the new content. I'm not expecting it to be good, and can be surprised when it is.

  • Name and shame D'Souza as often as possible. Grifters survive because of headlines like this

  • Hurricane in Florida in the 80s, but I was far enough inland to not be in danger. The eye of the storm is really spooky. Complete and utter silence.

    Also the 1991 snowstorm in Duluth MN. Started snowing on Halloween and didn't stop for three days. We had four feet of snow in the yard.

    That was a lot of fun, the town was paralyzed for a couple of days until the plows started to get things in order.

  • I guess 25ish years?

    There's a comedian I saw on An Evening at the Improv in the late 1980s who was doing a detective schtick.

    The joke I remember is "Either this man was stabbed to death with a spoon, or his entire body is breaking out in little smiles."

    I searched and searched for the clip and finally found one link, just one...

    That was me having asked the same question a decade prior.

  • This is an absolutely brilliant edit.

    Well done.

  • That's really nice, I like that interpretation a lot! Sort of "This man wrote so well he might as well have been a Klingon."

  • That line always annoyed the fuck out of me. They couldn't make up an equally vitally important Klingon author and then compare them?

    Nope, just a throwaway joke.

  • It looks like they're in the Dreamatorium.

  • That would've been so much funnier if you'd used the backslash.

  • I absolutely feel sympathy for young men. They didn't ask for any of this either. And they might have to do some work on themselves to get to a healthier place.

    I certainly struggled with relationships, to the point of not understanding signs of clear interest.

    It's hard to notice this stuff when your head is down with despair.

  • I'm fifty as well, and I can be fairly certain my wife would not have risked dating me in the current political climate.

    We were both a bit older and she had never had a very serious relationship prior to meeting me.

    Who knows how the math would've played out? My life was a wreck and she took a gamble on me.

    I've made sure that gamble paid off.

    But nowadays the odds have changed.

  • How do you know you're with one of those men, really? What happens when they change their tune?

    A lot of men will say whatever they need to so they can get laid. Or think they really believe it until the relationship is threatened.

    It's not that women can't do all that too but that women now have less ways to extricate themselves from such relationships.

    Why risk it?

  • Women can take care of themselves or each other.

    But yeah, the human libido will take charge sometimes. They're just worried it'll be men taking charge regardless of their wishes.

  • If you were a woman in today's world, why would you take the risk of dating someone who can rape, impregnate, and either leave or stay and dominate your life?

    The reality is that tender, gentle, trusting relationships will still form... and the rest of the men will have to decide whether to try to be better men or not.

  • Maybe so. But he's a good example of someone getting 'close' nationally.
