Snapchat A Titty posted:I think it's more goons are loving around with their phone or something while watching a thing instead of paying attention. Her gender is mentioned all the time. This is one of Snoop's earliest scenes, Marlo literally says "your turn, girl": She's also dressed in all pink during a motorcycle drive-by, IIRC. I don't think a lot of male enforcers in the hood are ever seen wearing pink.

In Detroit/Windsor, there is a radio station called The River (93.9 FM). It's slogan is "Deep. Cool. Current." which does a fair job of describing the music it plays (modern indie rock). I only recently realized that all of those words are also meant to describe a river (although "current" would be a noun in that case and not an adjective).

amityville anus posted:8 mile isn't just his rap album name its a road outside town that measures how many miles away the central hub downtown is when driving/taking the bus to/from Detroit on highway 1. Technically it's miles from the Detroit River. Mile roads extend into the suburbs as well (although they take on multiple names eventually) 8 Mile marks the city limits.

Tiggum posted:A lot of small children say that, so it could be a mistake that she just never bothered to unlearn, like how some people go their entire lives saying "fink" instead of "think" or "somethink" instead of "something". Does anyone in the world pronounce "comfortable" correctly? Or is saying "comfterble" just an American thing?

That hiding all posts from Shaun King makes my Facebook experience infinitely better. The amount of people I know who think the media is conspiring to make Hillary Clinton president, but think a reporter who is openly biased in favor of Sanders speaks the gospel, is totally staggering.

Russia counts as Europe in most things, doesn't it? Israel also counts as Europe for athletic competitions, for obvious reasons.

"Milkshake" by Kelis is produced by the Neptunes. It's so obviously their sound and I never realized it, probably because it was big long before I knew who Pharrell actually was. Now it's popping up again because of that awful Verizon ad parodying it in 2016.

Metal Geir Skogul posted:My school was K-6, JH was 7-9, HS was 10-12. I know that some places have senior-only schools, or skip junior high and have HS be 7-12, or have a middle school that's 7/8, JH that's 9/10, and HS that's 11/12. Are there any other common combinations? 6-8 was middle school, 9-12 was high school. That one is pretty common.

dirksteadfast posted:It took me many years to finally realize Led Zeppelin's "Ramble On" has Tolkien references and Yes' "Your Move" uses chess metaphors throughout, leading me to the conclusion that despite thinking of these bands as cool, rock and roll legends they were massive nerds in their youth. I'm not sure Yes were ever considered "cool" by anyone.

Rahonavis posted:The first really weak one that stood out to me was "An American Tail"/"The Great Mouse Detective". I mean, I didn't confuse the two when I was eight. Also, anyone who seriously thinks "Lincoln" and "Abraham Lincoln the Vampire Hunter" are twins should make friends with the guy who confused the Fugees and Fugazi. I had a class with a guy who thought Lincoln and ALVH were the same movie. I think his excuse was "I don't watch trailers."

Baron Corbyn posted:Jason Sudeikis and Ed Helms are two different people. I saw the end of We're the Miller's on a muted TV and thought they were doing a gimmick with the same guy playing two characters for a moment until I realized they had slightly different faces. Ed Helms looks way more like Stephen Colbert than Jason Sudeikis. He doesn't wear glasses as much anymore but it was very confusing at times when they were both on the Daily Show.
