Also for some other, different yet correct reasons, most medicines degrade in the presence of light and moisture, and having them in ice cream-like bins means constant cross-contamination from pills falling into the wrong bins and from the pill dust settling.

Captchas are an okay idea in theory, but having a computer generate and proctor the Turing Test defeats the entire purpose. We need artisanal captcha makers that can speak to the human experience. "Check every box that makes you sad."

If I was in a horror movie and was attacked by a monster and calling for help, I would simply say that I was attacked by a guy dressed as a monster. The idiots in those movies always say "I was attacked by a werewolf!" and obviously no one one believes them. But if they said "Some freak in a wolf mask just tried to steal my cell phone!" people are way more likely to believe that. And everybody would be on the lookout for someone with a wolf head.

If you got bitten by the werewolf and turned into one, you could also just buy a wolf costume and tell everyone you're making a low budget movie that you can only film three nights a month because you're dedicated to practical effects only. You could keep the pretense going for years if you didn't mind people thinking you were a loser wannabe filmmaker who was never going to finish their supposed passion project.

You could keep the pretense going for years if you didn't mind people thinking you were a loser wannabe filmmaker who was never going to finish their supposed passion project. If you had an experienced crew and a tight script you could get all the effects shots you need for a feature length film in three nights. Especially since the effects are real so you don’t need to worry about repairing the suit or anything.

Yes but then I'd need a new cover story, so you see the dilemma I face as a struggling werewolf filmmaker (making a film about a werewolf while being a werewolf)

The half Windsor knot shouldn't exist. I like the simple knot for people who do the whole semi-casual shirt-and-tie unbuttoned-collar I'm-a-middle-manager-but-I'm-hip thing, otherwise do the full Windsor.

"Zoomer" is a terrible name for a generation. I hope it's just a temporary stand-in until a real name emerges, like "Generation Y" was for the Millennials.

Gripweed posted:There’s no dilemma, just keep making werewolf movies. Exactly, use the lovely werewolf costume parts you originally bought so you can make sure the "costume" doesn't look too realistic (we're aiming for B-movie schlock horror) and then make as many werewolf movies as you can. Campy scripts full of cliches and lots of sheep's blood to use for practical effects (you will, unfortunately, be killing a lot of sheep to sate your werewolf diet)

I've already made peace with the fact that I'll never get to ride an actual hover board in my lifetime, if I also don't get to witness the end of all things I'm gonna be suuuuuuper disappointed.

A friend of mine is that kind of guy who doesn't read books and brags about it, the same way I brag about reading books. He told me that he read a Doom tie-in novel, which he liked, then he read all the Dune novels. After that, he was so mad that he never wanted to read anything again. Having read them myself and enjoyed almost none of it, I had no comeback, and to this day have not pressured him into reading a single thing.

Dune is one of those things where the first book is excellent, and pretty much everything beyond that gets worse and worse. I liked the new movie and am looking forward to the sequel but the rest of it seems like a recipe for madness.
