@BasedQian Humorously written, pretty good description of whats in the movie.
Thats everything im looking for in a movie review!
The problem is movie reviewrs THINK what people want is to see films trashed.

Liking a movie is subjective and this is where most modern movie critics fail.
Discussing objective film qualities, usually to support WHY you like it, is a lost art that needs to come back.
For example: if I say "Black Adam is a great movie that kicks ass" then all you get....

We’re old school dedicated film critics a more.. or less useful guide to the quality of a movie than rotten tomatoes?

@vinniewithanie Understand completely!
Kinda cool that rents letting up though. Maybe house prices will get some downward pressure soon.
English
@Nymdok Absolutely. Speaking of, you can rent on Galveston Island for cheaper than a mortgage on an equivalent property, so that’s what I’ll likely do when the time comes. Freaking nuts, something’s gotta give.
English
@vinniewithanie That IS crazy, but rent is usually our biggest expense. If you find a break, take it! :)
English
@Nymdok I hear ya, I miss them too. Kind of nuts that it’s cheaper for me to live in the Keys than Galveston/Houston, but we’re getting a sweetheart deal on rent. I think we have one more year. Child support is up in July so time to save up.

@vinniewithanie Hehehe i learned to love those books eventually, but I still prefer a breif YouTube video :)
English
@Nymdok I still have a Chilton’s manual for my 2000 Yamaha outboard. I can’t even tell you where it is. Maybe the garage? That’s another thing I’ve literally done all repairs/maintenance on since the move.

One of the most jarring "brown m&m" signals of the economy is the barrage of advertisements for 3rd party warranties.
People cannot afford new cars.
People are scared to death of the kind of unexpected and large repair bills that sometimes happen with "beaters."

A twenty year old car is a lot less beater now than a twenty year old car was in the mid 2000s

@vinniewithanie It is. Ive been drinking with that kid for 8 years.
Im gonna miss him.

@Nymdok This must have been what it was like when I left all my beer joint buddies behind back in Atascocita. 😔 I was only supposed to be here for a couple years then COVID happened. It’s taken me this long to get back on my feet and be able to afford to move back!
English
@vinniewithanie Big agree here! There is something really...I dunno...empowering? About seeing it done.
It stokes my agency in that "well shit if that guy can do it, so can i!" Kinda way that chiltons/Hayes manual never really did.
English
@Nymdok Thanks! It’s been so many things too. Radiator in the Mountaineer, alternator in the Honda, etc. YouTube has its flaws, but it’s invaluable when it comes to home auto repair.
English
@Nymdok Since I moved here from Atascocita (7 years) we estimate I’ve saved us between $5,000-$7,000 in repairs. Her fuel injectors are a great example. Stealership wanted over $2k just for the injectors and another $1.5k of adds. I bought all four on eBay for $100. Took one afternoon.

[flirting] are you contributing enough to your 401k to get the full company match?
English
@vinniewithanie Understand completely! Between me, wife, 2 kids, etc mechanic bills outpaced my earnings quickly, so I got really familiar with AutoZone. :)
English
@Nymdok My warranty has been me. I worked in a Walmart TLE in college and picked up some fantastic basic mechanical skills. I’ve kept both my 2008 Mountaineer and my wife’s 2016 on the road without paying for any repairs (so far). Both are pushing $190k miles.

"GAHHH I'M DATING WINONA RYDER AND ALL SHE WANTS TO DO IS RIDE ME WITH HER MASSIVE MILK WAGONS BUT I'M GAY AND ONLY HAD ONE HIT SONG SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!"

Сегодня я узнал, что… Солист группы Jamiroquai Джей Кей в своё время расстался с Вайноной Райдер, потому что у актрисы была слишком большая грудь и она очень часто хотела заниматься сексом. Вот цитата из интервью 20-летней давности: «У неё просто огромная грудь — больше, чем кажется на экране. У неё была привычка вечно затаскивать меня в постель. Это выматывало». В комментариях под постом, откуда я взял фотки, шутят, что это буквально похоже на подобную фразу: «Официант, мой стейк слишком сочный и вкусный, сделайте с этим что-нибудь!»
