I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

He doesn't deserve anything imo just saying pedantically "I have heard this joke!"

And honestly I heard it here first, last time he faced the same allegations :shrug:

to elaborate, there was a helicopter accident on set that killed three people, two of which were children.

quote:

Le and Chen were being paid under the table to circumvent California's child labor laws, which did not permit children to work at night. Landis opted not to seek a special waiver, either because he did not think he would get permission for such a late hour or because he knew he would not get approval to have young children in a scene with a large number of explosives. The casting agents were unaware that the children would be involved in the scene. Associate producer George Folsey, Jr. told the children's parents not to tell any firefighters on set that the children were part of the scene, and hid them from a fire safety officer who also worked as a welfare worker. A fire safety officer was concerned the blasts would cause a crash, but did not tell Landis of his concerns.[3][7] Morrow's friend and former Combat! co-star Dick Peabody wrote that Morrow's last words a few minutes before the accident were "I've got to be crazy to do this shot. I should've asked for a double."[8]

Not conventionally funny, I'll be the first to admit, but a 3lb vaguely mace-shaped cut of meat made me chuckle a bit.

It's a 3 pound cut. $15 a pound isn't that unusual when it comes to the more popular parts of the cow.

Also a pound of meat is about as much as you would want for a meal, so a well-prepared $15 pound of steak should be high quality.

The Express Passes at Universal and Flash Passes at Six Flags are extra cost front-of-line passes that put you through an alternate queue directly onto the ride (or pre-show if that's necessary). The Disney FastPass is a reservation system where you acquire a pass for a certain time, which costs no money (unless you're at Disneyland, the cheapskates), and lets you enter that faster queue at the time on your pass. They used to be paper tickets printed at a kiosk, but now you can do it on your phone and apply it to your Magic Band that also functions as your room key, park ticket, and linked credit card.

A lot of rides also have single rider lines where if you're by yourself or willing to split the party you can take a faster queue to loading and be used to fill in empty seats left after loading, which can be up to 3 or 4 times faster than using the normal queue.

This is dumb. Go to Enchanted Forest in Salem, Oregon, and you can have a way radder experience for $12 a head and you can heckle whatever teenager they're forcing to pretend he's abraham lincoln that year. Also the haunted house is legit scary as gently caress* and the longest I've waited for it wassssss about 20 seconds


* it's actually the most phenomenal exploitation of expectations set by bigger parks. nothing in the haunted house is actually automatic. they choose the most sadistic teen on staff to watch you on cctv and hit buttons as you go through the house to maximize how much it fucks with you. for this reason it is also never the same experience twice. you're dead sure you get a slam or a gust of wind when you trip the laser?... but no????.... or the skeleton does nothing until that split-second you give up and start turning away. anyway I had a friend who did it and it's incredibly effective

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

One of the best parts of The Maias, one of the better known Portuguese novels, is just making fun of people who go to the race track. It's extra funny because it's just Portuguese wannabes immitating the British. The whole book is satiric.

It's a really good book and I recommend it.

and they wonder why long form journalism isn't profitable anymore :eng99:

quote:

He showed me abuse and humiliation porn and constantly tested my boundaries—this became murkier and murkier as our relationship got more tumultuous, as I grew to view sex with him as the only way to receive love and connect,” Julie wrote in her statement. “This lead to me allowing myself to become more and more abused. He claimed that seeing me cry was a turn-on—this later turned into a routine of him yelling and humiliating me until I cried, then having sex with me while I continued to cry with no regard or effort to make things right. He’d instigate fights, belittle and upset me, just so he could have sex with me, and the real, legitimate fights ended the same way. He choked me until I passed out and did humiliating, degrading things to me that I still can’t manage to write out on paper.”

“He continued to violate my boundaries into even after our relationship, and if any of this still feels like a blurred lines scenario let me assure you that he did hold me down and rape me while I said ‘no’ over and over. Afterwards I punched him in the shoulder and I told him, ‘When someone says no, you’re supposed to stop. What you just did is what they call rape.’ He said he thought we were playing a game, and that I liked it. He didn’t care.”

This is just one of many allegations they're reporting. The article does a great job of showing exactly why he's a horrible scumbag and its so much more than just that he rapes people, (as if that isn't enough). I'd recommend you read it if you've got the stomach for it.
