OT: Off Topic XXI - It's the End of the World As We Know It (and I feel fine)

Made some homemade mustache wax. It's luxurious. I just need the top hat, cane and the monocle and I'll look like one of the mRNA investors!

I got my second dose today. Pharmacist told me that side effects in second dose are often worse than the first dose.

10-14 more days till the Pfi-G firmware update finishes installing.

Does this mean I can expect to feel an even bigger urge to buy Microsoft products after my second dose?

Yes. Microsoft products are Gateway products... That prick...

I have not been vaccinated. I am patiently waiting for AHS to break into my house and inject me.

I had a Zune arrive at my door the other day, I don't even remember ordering it.

You are correct, the first pirated program I ever put on a computer was Windows XP, because ME sucked. Now I don't pay for any computer program.

Has anyone seen that Ted Lasso show on Apple+? It looks like it could be amusing.

I have not but I have heard nothing but good things. Like exceedingly good things

Allegedly it’s hilarious but there’s also more to it than just comedy?

I've just seen the Apple+ commercial where they have clips from the new Jason Mamoa show with it, but the clip where he's like "How's that offside? No really, how is that offside? I don't understand" cracks me up.

Speaking of Apple+ shows, The Morning Show with Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon and Steve Carrell is excellent, really touches on all sides of the #metoo movement and the aftermath. They manage to do it without marginalizing the movement IMO.

Apple is too 'woke' most of the time for me to stomach it. Mythic Quest is borderline but my IASIP joy seeps into it.

Jason Momoa can FO. That A-Hole is going down.

 

[Lunatik]

That gif is sick as f***.

I only mentioned his name because I never cared to learn the name of the show. I don't think I have actually seen anything he's been in. As for Apple+ being too woke, I dunno, but I still recommend The Morning Show, they straddled the line very well, as I mentioned they don't marginalize the movement, but they also don't really over-villainize Steve Carrell's character. It's just a very god show about an important issue. The acting is really top notch, with a good cast as well, in addition to Witherspoon, Aniston and Carrell, they have Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass (the most underrated man in hollywood IMO), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (the new love of my love), Bel Powley and Nestor Carbonell.

I am really going to need some f***ing context here. What exactly is this?

I just googled it and it's a manipulated video.

"Aquaman" Star Jason Momoa Victim of Fake Groping Video

You are more than welcome to believe it's a "fake groping video". I do not. The touching and reactions are authentic and the only thing manipulated in the gif is the filler. There is a "doctored" gif which repeats the motion several times to which this article is referring to and that, however, is not the one I submitted.

Maybe I'm naive, but I have my doubts he's going to intentionally grope his daughter in front of a shit load of reporters at a planned event

Anyways...

I have yet to watch Ted Lasso or The Morning Show but both are on my watch list because I've heard great things about both.

Mythic Quest started out looking like just another workplace comedy but this season has taken it to another level altogether. The amount of depth that's been added to every character (even the ones you might consider secondary) has really been enjoyable to watch. The current arc with CW is some of the best storytelling I've seen from any show.

I just assumed based on the name, Mythic Quest was some show based on a video game, so I've never even checked out a trailer. Thanks for pointing out it isn't.

It is in the sense that they work at a game development studio. And most of the story lines in season 1 revolve around "what they should/shouldn't do to the game; hijincks ensue." But as I said it really does step it up later on and into season 2.

That explains the title, but that sounds palatable to me; I was imagining another Witcher or something.

I thought the same too initially lol. For me once I saw it had Danny Pudi in it I figured I had to give it a shot.
