Second is fine. Third is not good but at least didn't somehow suck out any charisma Chris Pratt has and have dinosaurs literally talking to each other in complex sentences and basically served as the most product placement driven movie I've ever seen. Seriously, the Jimmy Buffett restaurant??

I left Chicago less than halfway back was I was a teenager because we thought it was annoying and boring as gently caress, but Jurassic World and Cabin Fever are the only two movies I've watched to the end in a theater where I was actually pissed off having paid for them

My pet peeve is that apparently the sensible alternative of "high heels" is "flats." Nobody should be wearing flat shoes, they look terrible and will destroy your feet. As far as running and jumping, I personally would do a better job in my tallest, wobbliest shoe than in flats. How about a sensible boot heel with some arch support?

Aesop Poprock posted:Jurassic World was the only movie I saw in theater where I thought it was total poo poo and everyone else I saw it with thought it was good and I felt like the nerdy rear end in a top hat bringing the experience down afterwards making GBS threads on it. It was pure 90's random action trash like Water World or any other poorly placed together poo poo but I've come to realize that's probably why they liked it. Flashback to their youth or whatever when every summer blockbuster was guaranteed to be a dumb as gently caress unself-aware action movie I've only seen previews for it and the sequel but all they made me feel was a burning desire for raptor guy to be eaten by his raptors and as far as I know hat doesn't happen so it's definitely a trash movie/franchise.

I love Jurassic Park 2. Everyone in that movie knows they are in a ridiculous plot, they have zero reason to go to that island. Also Pete Postlethwaite owns the gently caress out of his scumbag hunter role. There's also a scene where the T Rex is rampaging around a city and a bunch of japanese businessmen are running away. Just... look at the contempt on his face here. He's great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seCERpBIcSo Jurassic World was just an empty husk of nothing.

It's dumb to have to use the phone for stuff like ordering takeout in 2018 instead of an online menu. The vocal phone call is a massive inconvenience for most things it's still used for. Just took my business to a different local italian place bc just clicking some buttons is so much easier than "the address? sir you are breaking up... can you spell the last name? *repeats entirely wrong order*.... no no ok the card number..."

I believe online orders usually cost more. Yelp charges the restaurants 12% of the order to use their system so if you want the food to be cheaper then pick up the phone.

Radio DJs talking over song intros. I have never understood what the point of this is unless they're squeezing in more advertising like a ticket giveaway or something. Today I heard a DJ talk over the entire intro to The Spirit of Radio. Like, motherfucker, do you think people listen to Rush for Geddy's voice and can take or leave the instrumental sections?

Especially when they don't even pull over to the curb to park, and instead just bring their car to a stop in the middle of the street and abandon it there.

Not so much a peeve but a lifestyle thing I'll never get - when people online mention being able not to shower as a perk, or sitting in the house in their underwear. I've always found that sort of thing really uncomfortable, I can't relax properly until I'm showered and dressed - showering wakes me up and gets me in the right mindset to do poo poo, and if I don't shower I feel gross most of the day until I do. Also I get cold easily so sitting around in my underwear is a no go. Hell, even if I'm feeling sick, a shower helps me feel better because for a short time I smell like soaps instead of disease. Waking up while sick is like having morning breath but it's coming from your entire skin. Just a constant low level smell that just makes it worse.

They’re tempting you with the song but they just won’t shut up. And it’s never the good DJs either, it’s always the weird, lovely ones, usually talking about their life or some poo poo. gently caress off. On that note, the alcoholic DJ on our classic rock station that constantly talks about getting drunk. I am in a huge city and this is the main classic rock station but this DJ is just talking about beers or whatever while an awesome song is starting up. Just shut the gently caress up, I don’t care how you’re going to get wasted this weekend. So this peeve, on top of the one of DJs talking over songs, is people bragging about getting wasted when they are just CONSTANTLY doing it. You’re over 40 and supposed to be a professional AND TALK ABOUT MUSIC; stop. Thin Privilege has a new favorite as of 12:53 on Jan 20, 2018 |

Waking up while sick is like having morning breath but it's coming from your entire skin. Just a constant low level smell that just makes it worse. I definitely agree about the showering part. Even just a quick one will make you feel so much better. The underwear part is something I do, mostly so I don't have to get a whole set of clothes "dirty" (I don't like to wear the same shirt/pants twice in a row even if I haven't done anything all day). That's solely a "while I live alone" thing though - people who do it in front of other non-spouse people are kind of gross. I used to have a roommate who would only wear underwear whenever he was home, even when I had company over and was a major peeve of mine (and yes, I did ask him not to and he'll listen for a week or two but he always went back to doing it all the time).

Most delivery places have their own inbuilt system that is identical to ordering over the phone. Obviously places like Pizza Hut, but also the local italian chain I ordered from. Several of the local chinese and thai places, it's no longer a huge expense to have a rudimentary online ordering system and it makes the whole process more convenient. Also frees up a front-end person from having to stand around answering the phone and entering the order.

I bought cheap steel-toed boots for my first job and the sole peeled off the boot due to mud-suction at about 9am, and my boss wouldn't let me take twenty minutes to go change into other footwear, and just continued to yell at me for not knowing the difference between pine and spruce lumber. And that's my 20 year old-pet peeve about bullying in the workplace and having uncomfortable feet.

Writer Cath posted:People who somehow take up the entire aisle with their grocery cart. I encountered a ton of that this weekend. I figure it was because it was above freezing for the first time in the last two weeks. Not only did it seem like everyone was blocking entire aisles, they were rude as gently caress, and had 3 kids that were just running around the aisles. One lady let her kid hang off the front of the shopping cart like a masthead, with how fast she was barreling around corners and how much everyone was a loving rear end in a top hat, it's a miracle that kid didn't end up hitting another shopping cart.
