  • What mediocre game, show, or movie has an incredible soundtrack?

    Jump

  • I assume your tongue is fairly firmly in your cheek, but I can't think of a better example for "mediocre movie" than Mortal Kombat. Lots of stuff to like about it (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Robin Shou's hair, Goro, several of the sets, etc), mixed in with mostly underwhelming martial arts and cinematography, with characters whose depth reflects their origins. Don't get me wrong, I like it, but I'm not crusading to convince people of Paul W.S. Anderson's misunderstood genius lol

  • Where does the drive to do anything come from?

    Jump

  • Y'know, I'm sure the intent of the comment is in the vein of, "I persist because fuck them", but there's a reading of this that implies you've a list, and you're checking it twice...

  • What X-mas themed things do people who hate X‐mas like?

    Jump

  • You just helped a mildly infuriating puzzle piece finally slide into place for me. For years, I've internalized xbow as shorthand for crossbow, but couldn't for the life of me remember where I'd have picked that up. I played a lot of AoE2 back in the day, though, so that seems the likely origin.

  • What 'bad' movie could you fix with a simple casting change?

    Jump

  • You could put Daniel Day-Lewis in that role and I think it would still be a terrible film. A good actor cannot rescue a story that inept. They might be able to wring some pathos from otherwise inept dialog, but it's not going to change the fundamental structural issues with the movie, and, as you allude to, it might strip it of what makes it entertaining in the first place.

  • He's the only one of our cats to do this, and only MY slippers. Melts my heart every time.

    Jump

  • "More like OUR slipper", he seems to say.

  • You can shove that lightsaber deep up in your Death Star.

    Jump

  • Fair point! To be honest, I had a lot of internal conflict about saying anything at all, what with this being a "I don't care about Star Wars" thread and all. I've never let reading the room stop me in the past though lol

  • Far be it from me to defend most of the goofiness in Star Wars, including its politics, but I don't think there's any contradiction in those particular facets of Leia's character. Being a princess doesn't exclude her from supporting rebels, nor does it mean she can't have prejudices. The history of most aristocracies is a bunch of prejudiced nobles supporting various schemes against one another.

  • AI Slop Recipes Are Taking Over the Internet — And Thanksgiving Dinner | Food bloggers see traffic dip as home cooks turn to AI, inspired by impossible pictures

    Jump

  • Wandering through to mention that your local library almost certainly has a collection of cookbooks spanning decades, and, depending on your area, might even have stuff tied specifically to your region. Take the book, photocopy the recipes you're interested in, return it, get to cooking!

  • Awww now the hate is coming for her

    Jump

  • I heard they're made in the same factory, they just change the letterhead.

  • Can you smell what the Neelix is cooking?

    Jump

  • Trust the process, the man's a professional.

  • Make Your Own Beans Instead of Using Canned!

    Jump

  • It's not.

  • Brb, updating my grindr profile...

  • I Wrote Task Manager — 30 Years Later, the Secrets You Never Knew

    Jump

  • Sorry man, I'm not knowledgeable enough about computers to provide a summary, but I'll mention this fun tidbit: apparently, the shipped version of task manager contained thus guy's home phone number in the code by accident. He commented it out, but left the phone number in there, which means he can find instances of the source code being hosted online by reverse searching his home phone. Which is still a number he maintains, and he asks people not to call. Which is a bold thing to leave in the video imo

  • Liver and Fava Beans

    Jump

  • I'm sure, prepared correctly, it's lovely, but liver and favs beans sounds like a Fancy Feast variety.

  • A tale of two mac and cheeses.

  • Midwesterner checking in to say this post tastes like lunch at the babysitter's house. She didn't go for the full mixed veg gamut tho, preferring frozen peas alone.

    Despite the inevitable disappointment, I feel a vague desire to fix a dish of it for dinner.

  • The on-set intimacy coordinator gave me the go ahead! They said, in fact, "squish that spider or so help me you're going to NEED a paid professional to conduct intimacy in this bedroom".

  • Casual Trek fan checking in: is that Linda Hamilton?? I know "they were on Star Trek" is a meme, but I thought I knew most of the big names that guest starred.
