OT: HFPens Community Lounge: Now with Uggs, Pumpkin Spice Beer and Icecream haters

It's a fair cop. I suppose I just need watch and allow myself to adjust from "1998-anime camp" to "2021-Netflix-spent-craptons-to-make-this-look-camp camp"

I mean, I'm with you there. I'm super nostalgically attached to Cowboy Bebop (plus, as a film nerd, I love all the classic references there and in Ghost in the Shell), but a huge part of it is basically "Japanese nerds get really into film noir and French New Wave without understanding it and camp it up." So I think it's actually encouraging that it's campy as hell.

But nothing beats weird campy ideas of the Beat generation like John Woo's Hard Boiled. Chow Yun Fat is a jazz clarinet playing cop who plays by his own rules in 1990s Hong Kong.

John Woo was supposedly working on a live action Metroid film.

So interview status: my interviews with my new company have gone so well that I'm already on the final interviews with the CEO and President, which almost seem like a formality at this point. I've been really happy with the interviews I've done so far, but I keep hearing concerning things regarding whether I'd be a full time employee vs a contractor. I wouldn't take a contractor position and it would crush me if that's all they had to offer. But we'll have to see what they can support.

This is Canadastan, TSN, CBC and Sportsnet think we are all Leafs fans at heart.

Season 3 of succession time. What a good show. Cousin Greg may be the best character on TV.

He's infuriating.

So you bought canned piss?

So you bought canned piss?

And the beer's pretty bad too.

They are all infuriating. Greg is easily the most likeable person on the show though.

Spoiler

he's in over his head bumbling around while damn near everyone else is just a legit awful person. Surprisingly I think Tom has emerged as number 2 most likeable.

I am rubbish when it comes to beer

I like it, but the dark beers are my favorites.

Your choices were : the Leafs and the Leafs.

Hi 4Chan!

Well... more subtly.

Hi 4Chan!

Me, trying to consider how I can explain ragecomics and the Badger Song to my 12 year old when he shows me viral memes like it's a hip new phenomenon.

Well, I'm pretty sure JFK Jr. is a pancake, anyway.

But really my posts are about ethics in hockey shitposting.
