I was massively disappointed by this movie when it came out and was absolutely perplexed by the praise for it. I might give it another try to see if another viewing changes things, but I clearly remember numerous scenes I found rather laughable that absolutely weren’t meant to be.

I feel for him. The high school basketball team I coach made the Jazz look like the 2018 Warriors, by comparison. We started the season with 15 players and finished the season with 7. Kids today…I tell you…

Thank you. I knew I knew that quote.

The statements do not seem remotely the same to me. Mamdami is clearly condemning the attack, whereas Schumer doesn’t like that congress wasn’t included in the process.

WB being bought by Netflix or Paramount were both negatives, for the most part, but of the two, Netflix was like being killed by being stabbed to death, whereas Paramount is like being killed by acid.

I love that Shaq punched Montross and Shaq is the one that fell down. Montross wasn’t the most skilled big man, but he was a tough MF.

That’s not fair. He’s also an adult rapist, as well as massively corrupt and probably guilty of treason and numerous other serious crimes.

That is disturbing on so many levels.

They apparently left out the words β€œthat was”.

That jumped out at me, as well.

My oldest daughter was apparently emotionally scarred from watching the movie when she was a child and has never been able to watch it again.

He’s now running for governor of Oregon as a Republican where he wants to stop the β€œempty promises, the name calling, the finger pointing and fear mongering”, apparently not realizing those are the core tenants of the current Republican Party.

Someone needs to tell LaMelo it’s not 2005, when Hummer’s were more popular. Someone also needs to tell him that even in 2005 having a Hummer meant you were a massive douchebag.

Gambling makes the NBA money. Tanking does not. That is the difference.

I’m old enough to remember when a royal scandal involving Andrew was him dating Koo Stark, an American actress who had appeared in an x-rated movie (would be an R-rated film today). Amazing how quaint that is now.

Not coincidentally, the average player used to start breaking down basically when they hit 30 in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

Please tell me this is AI. And what on earth is this fetish with jeans? In the ice bath??

Oh stop. This is obviously a photoshopped or AI picture that makes him look like that…what? He actually looks like that? Oh, never mind.

I’m blocking people who are idiots and have no desire to have a reasonable conversation, which is why I didn’t block you. Until now.

Yes. And you can work to get the one you want elected. The problem is that unless they’re a name candidate, then their chance of winning is small, which is why people like AOC and Mamdani run as Democrats despite not agreeing with most of their policies.

…”idiots” then you being an idiot becomes a fact. I think the Trump administration is fascist and so do most political scholars, but that doesn’t make that a fact. It’s still an opinion because there is not clear, unequivocal designation of what is and what is not a fascist. Got it?

Do you seriously not understand? Let me explain it to you in a way you’ll understand. You being an idiot is an opinion, despite the fact there is plenty of evidence to back it up. Any reasonable person would say you’re an idiot, but that still doesn’t make it a fact unless you join a group called…

I’m guessing someone you will call liberal and basically call the enemy. Which is why you guys will continually fail at making any actual change. Now go away. This conversation is insanely boring now.

You guys really only see what you want to, don’t you. You’re the MAGA left.

Wow, so you take my comment out of context in order to try and make people believe something I don’t. You are exactly like MAGA and exactly the type of evil person you claim to hate. Blocked.
