  • Honestly, probably. I didn’t see the flash only because it was one of those super hero movies I can watch later or something. My wife also loves super hero movies and didn’t feel like going. Not because we felt it would suck, but because we felt it was probably good enough for home watching.

    Barbie is something both of us want to watch and are going this evening to see. I’m sure it will have a lot of similar tropes to lots of movies and isn’t going to change cinema forever, but it will at least be different enough from super hero movies in general and looks it will be fun.

    So I don’t hate flash. I just decided to skip it for later as I’ve done with other DC and marvel movies. They’re not different enough from each other anymore. It used to be Captain America as a spy thriller and Thor as an old gods new world type of deal and so on. Now marvel is just average jokes average movie. Which is fine but that’s home watching stuff. Maybe an occasional theater watch if we want to get out of the house.



  • Right? Like what the fuck. I can’t imagine ever going, “haha look at Eric’s penis. AOC is a legend!” or anything. I like AOC because she doesn’t do things like that. And if she did things like that, I would lose respect for her.

    That was such a weird and weak “but both sides” attempt because it’s only based in a hypothetical situation where they can pretend they know how things will totally turn out.

    Edit: oh. Surprise. That koofnoof’s history is not surprising at all. Apparently thinks conservative ideas such as hating trans people isn’t hateful because “the true hate is from the trans people hating themselves”. I’ve never once yet ever on here or reddit seem a stupid “both sides” come from anyone even remotely left leaning. It’s always hateful bigots trying to say everyone is as much of a piece of shit as they are.



  • Popeyes chicken is always so dry and unpleasant unless it’s the tenders. Those are good. Not great, but good. But I don’t usually want tenders, so that doesn’t do a lot of good for me if I want a leg or breast or something.

    Also all of their sides are a bit worse than KFC as well.

    So KFC is better and I generally dislike KFC as it is. So many other options to get actually good fried chicken at the same price now that it’s so expensive.


  • You know… I never thought about that. I would usually wonder why trainers only have like 2 or 3 pokemon.

    I only have 2 dogs despite there likely being 150 breeds. What kind of psycho would horde so many pokemon?

    Imagine a charmander and evolutions. Constant fire hazard from the tail alone. That little fuck would spend it’s entire life in it’s pokeball if I want to have any hope of insurance covering my house.

    Actually I feel like insurance just wouldn’t cover you if you have any pokemon at all unless you pay extremely high premiums.



  • To be fair, with a website as huge as reddit, a 25% or even 50% decrease in user activity probably won’t be that noticeable from someone like us. Instead of 2 million posts a day, it’s not now 1 million. Or instead of 500k, it’s 250k. None of those are knew we could feasibly differentiate.

    Maybe if you sit on r/all and keep track of how fast new posts are moving, but even then, the algorithm may still just move the same number of posts up and down the main pages. So even then, it would be hard to tell if usage is down.

    Now obviously there’s no way it’s down that much. It’s significantly lower. But I’m just saying even if we pretend that it was down that much, it would look like business as usual.

    Also, either way, I’m still glad to find this place. It feels nicer and offers what I wanted in a way reddit couldn’t.
