it's one of two shows (the other being better call saul) that i actually give a poo poo about.

or maybe you could consider it a miniseries since there's only eight episodes, but my point still stands. the length also makes it perfect for binge watching if you want to waste a day.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
Okay, I know I said I didn't know what to expect, but this...is somehow even more surprising.

I thought it was gonna be some supernatural type of mystery deal where everything is turbo-loving-vague until some big reveal towards th end of the season.

But telekinesis, shady organizations with human experimentation gone awry, and legit assassination...in the first 30 mins of the season opener? Goddamn.

It's a huge relief to watch something so straightforward. I feel like there's been some trend in entertainment to leave everything vague and open for interpretation in order to seem deeper or as a crutch for unimaginative writers.

Yeah, that's what I meant. There are cases where it's done really well and drives a show, like True Detective's first season, but so much other stuff is basically the producers screaming "BOY HOWDY, AREN'T YOU EXCITED TO BE KEPT IN THE DARK FOR FIFTEEN EPISODES AFTER THESE FEW TEASERS. BET YOU'LL LOVE THE CLIFFHANGER, OH MAN, WE'RE GETTING ALL THE EMMIES!" right through the screen.

^^^I feel like that poo poo started with Lost but maybe just when I noticed it. X Files got a pass for the first few seasons before it dived into the stupid.

Stranger Things is good watching, I'm pretty hyped for 2.

They leave poo poo open and loose like that because they never know when they're gonna get cancelled.

I enjoyed not binge watching it, letting each episode sink in for a few days before the next one.

Oh, gently caress me, this is the show that creepy gif with the Christmas lights is from? Now I'm all kinds of intrigued.

Also digging the gooey-tentacle dimension portal with growling coming out of it. That's definitely not bad or anything, we should study it and whatnot, no need to burn it with fire.

My girlfriend is at Wacken Metal Festival, and I just found out what she was hiding from me in some childish fashion since she opened a package while we were skyping five weeks ago.

It's a loving bikini with all classic Nintendo characters. She is such a turbonerd, Jesus Christ

Dammit I would wear a few of those shirts. The "Say no more fam" with the gustav and the "DILLON YOU SON OF A BITCH" I would wear

but not from these shitbirds.

I had a conversation with someone the other day who constantly sends me poo poo related to me being a veteran. I told her "I was in the military for five years. There's 24 other years to my life and I hate that people focus mainly on a relatively small portion of it."

The only time I bring up that I'm a veteran to anyone is if it's 100% relevant to the situation (like getting advice for a resume or some poo poo). 99 times out of 100 of someone knows I'm a veteran it's because someone else told them.

I'm spending the weekend at a cottage in central Ontario with the former commander of a UN peacekeeping mission in Africa and his son, who served as an infantry officer in Afghanistan and caught some sort of horrible infection and nearly died on the flight to Ramstein.

I'm very un-moto about my time in but I don't think I'm gonna be able to keep from nerding out a little bit and asking too many questions.

There's some dick head in my math class that wears that oaf nation garbage. He's got marine stuff on his TOTALLY MILITARY BACKPACK and wears a dumb military theme cap everywhere.

Rumor is he's failing badly but stays in class to try and bang the 16 year old high school student who's busy not being a piece of poo poo and getting college credits before she finishes high school.
