Very Taliban...

It really was well acted. Just cringe throughout.

It was recommended to me and my wife on Sunday and we had some time to kill on Monday so we just popped it on and rolled through it. Good timing with the finale being the day before.

I saw it's getting a second season with new people although I didn't get a chance to actually fact check that.

I suspect @Beef Invictus may have been watching it based off of his Daddario/de Armas question a week or so back.

My wife just said she wanted to start True Detective. I don't believe she is aware of the Daddario scene so this will be more interesting than usual

Bombs away.

That scene isn't nearly as "bad" as the one later in the season with Woody and another girl...

Yeah I am hoping the pregnancy hormones make that scene hit different lol.

She just watched that new mini series with Kate Winslett and said it was really good

Your wife is in for a treat. I'm happy for her.

Black holes are so cool. They're infinitely dense, just like many posters on HF!

Beefette just informed me that she has been listening to The Hunt for Red October and now that she's finished the book we have to watch the movie.

This is the best day of my life.

@BigToe have you seen this movie

That movie makes Alec Baldwin tolerable. It's amazing.

I can't have this one growing up to play Warzone so it'll have to be someone else. I am playing random duos to search for the right one

Fair. But we both know between your culinary career and your Fortniting, you have no time to raise another child. Unless you want your Roomba to rear the lad/lady, I’m all you got.

The "lack of education" block that gets put on so many jobs is infuriating on so many levels. Companies are just choosing to ignore the actual best candidates for a job so often.

Got shot down 2 times in a year interviewing for the manager job above me that I have done work all three departments that report to the job. Why did I get turned down? "You don't have managerial experience"

And yes that job was posted 2 times in a year. 2 years later. I'm not applying if it posts again, Yes I can see the current guy in a bad spot. And if you wouldn't give it to me 2 years ago. I'm not getting paid enough to take that job.

Edit: because I realized the time line was longer ago than last year... f***ING working at a health system in times of COVID.

Fun fact, making someone a manager will formally give that experience.

But HR doesn't think that way... SHOCKING

Every book in that series makes the movie a tough watch for me because soooooooooooo much was left out.

RIP Tom...

That doesnt sound terrible. Would instill a great work ethic, but fine, you've convinced me. I trust you to show him/her the fine arts

Nah. I’ll watch it if Beefette thinks I should though.

the “lacking experience “ excuse is the biggest copout for a employer there is. They should just be truthful and say we had someone in mind before the interview process began and we are going with them.

Let me know when Evacuation Day occurs, so I can begin the process of imprinting.
