IT *BZZT* WASP ME--
IT WASP ME ALL *BZZT* ALONG!


The new season of Kids In The Hall begin with Paul Bellini (towel guy) unearthing the Kids and breaking the 4th wall to tell us that glumly that we asked for this.
I for one am humbled and ashamed, this is sad.
Even if you just have to see some 60 year old cocks, I've been told better places exist.

There's this german series called Dark which has a terrific first season, a scratched thin second and a third one opening on what may well be a gently caress you to the audience.

Everything, Everywhere, All at Once Saw it more on a lark than anything and was still disappointed. Movie felt like it was directed by some Zoomer with an attention disorder who spent all day on reddit reading the dankest of memes and sparknotes of Nietzsche. It's examination of Nihilism and the Asian American experience are both totally surface level, and any deeper themes they could've added are excised in favor of more "Hilarious" butt plug kung fu and hot dog fingers.

Under Siege 2- Dark Territory.

I wasn't expecting much from a Seagal movie but I was still disappointed, Steven Seagal was given a lot of creative control and it shows: Seagal has lots more screen time than in the original.
I got nothing against Eric Bogosian but his Badguy can't come close to the combined crazy of Gary Busey and Tommy Lee Jones.

also if you want to feel sick go read about Seagal's behavior behind the scenes, Guy's a real class act.

These "Flamin' Hot Cheese Supreme" corn chips are a little hot but not particularly cheesy. I only bought them because they didn't have the regular cheese flavour, which is much cheesier than these.

A tangled skein of bad opinions, the hottest takes, and the the world's most misinformed nonsense. Do not engage with me, it's useless, and better yet, put me on ignore.
If you're disappointed it's only because your expectations are unrealistically high.

I got a letter from the government the other day

I have a recurring dream where I find out that all my dead pets from over the years are alive and well and they all missed me just as much as I missed them and they want to play forever

I'm disappointed when I wake up most days, but those mornings are particularly rough

Metro 2035

From the super depressing but kinda cool metro 2033 to basically M. Night Shyamalans the village.

Seriously, it actively tried to make everything neat about the prior books not matter:
All those cool things from the first book like them listening to the submarines and tanks left over slowly going quiet? Government fabrication.
The cool dudes from Sparta? Knew about it, retroactively making them dicks.
The dangerous outdoors that were inhospitable to human life? Only in Moscow, everywhere else is basically sweet. The government was just hiding it.
Just... meh

I was having a delicious breakfast of Weetabix Chocolate Chip Minis with my morning antidepressants. After quickly swallowing a citalopram i felt a leftover choc chip in my mouth and bit down, anticipating the perfectly adequate chocolatey taste I have come to expect from the popular breakfast cereal. In fact I had actually just swallowed a leftover choc chip and instead bit straight into the still-present citalopram, crumbling it up and making me fully experience how it actually tastes for the first time. Turns out: bad.

That's why you should always just gulp down you meds with some water, if you're making a meal of it you will taste the bitterness.
Though I hear people who get to the point they need to down a fistful of pills every day often grind them into a shake.

I'm not a huge star wars fan, but the hype leading up to the Phantom Menace vs. The actual product might be the biggest disappointment in film history.

Phantom Menace is better than at least 2 other films (AotC, RoS) in the series, but the gulf between expectation and delivery was immense.

I think my friend group had all seen TPM in the theater about three times before we started discussing what a giant stupid mess it was. We unanimously agreed Darth Maul ruled, of course. Still disappointed he didn't come back with robot legs or a hover-diaper like that one guy in Jedi Knight.

This, but for the sequel trilogy. The prequels were at least novel.

Kamikaze warp is my darth maul in that it salvages a very confused film.

seeing michelle yeoh in a film and finding out that her kung fu sequences are both quality and involve buttplugs is high cinema in point of fact

I don't really disagree about the novelty, but the sequels were less of a disappointment because everyone was much more aware that they could just be crap.

I guess I'm young for a goon, so the disappointment was not as keenly felt at the time.

I've never seen the first one, and only remember BOOBS from the sequel. :allears:

I'd say Speed 2: Cruise Control was a disappointment, and maybe it was, but I got (willingly) felt up in the theatre by my gf at the time, so I really have no memory of it.

I couldn't decide what to have for dinner; nothing was particularly appealing. Then I found a dumpling place that, unlike all the others in this area, doesn't make you order enough for two people at minimum, and I decided that sounded good. So I placed my order. Delivery was estimated for 40-60 minutes so I waited. And when it finally arrived, it was the wrong food. So I ran out and grabbed the driver and handed it back, and he said he'd get it sorted out. Ten minutes later the website marked my order as complete, so I contacted them to see what was happening. And they told me they couldn't get the order fixed (even though the restaurant still seemed to be open) and had to just give me a refund. But I used a one-time discount code on that order, which they didn't replace, so it'd be twice the price if I re-ordered. And I'm back to not finding anything I've got (or could get) appealing. So I'm having vodka and sadness for dinner.

One time someone delivered my food to the wrong address and when i tried to contact them i was ignored and i had to request a refund. That restaurant actually was closed by that time and i didn't want what was still open so i just ate cereal or something and it was v sad. Stupid house numbers that are almost exactly the same! I also have had packages go to the wrong house before.
