@emzanotti Audio was good, but that clumsy speech that the launch director delivered to the crew was IMHO unnecessary. It was the only time that it felt like NASA was playing for the cameras and it did not play to anyone's strengths.

I have laughed harder at the SNL UK clips on YT than I have at the vast majority of recent SNL US clips. The fake ads (Underágé anti-aging cosmetics 😆) the digs at British tourist behavior, and of course their take-no-prisoners mockery of politicians, "elites", and celebrities - all an order of magnitude more enjoyable than the current US offering.

@jon_stokes Launch was 11:38AM Eastern / 8:38AM Pacific, so it fit perfectly into the morning schedule for schools. I suspect that more kids than adults actually saw it live.

I watched it on one of these, and lol no they did not wheel this into my 5th grade classroom expressly to show us a replay of that teacher & crew exploding. We watched it live along with a ton of other kids across the country.

99.9% of people who "experienced" the Challenger disaster saw it on replay and now remember it as live. Almost NO ONE was watching. Everyone thinks they were. It's a fascinating collective false memory.

Holy crap! That is just an elaborate suicide attempt.

@DaddyWarpig This guy had a vid for this "don't tell her to calm down. Tell her she's becoming just like her mother and that you didn't sign up for this because if you married her mother you'd have a clean house and a warm meal."

@IMAO_ Do they still make Red Stripe? I don't think I've had it since our honeymoon in the Caribbean.

@BlueBoxDave THIS. Shylock is so well written that many (perhaps most) people think that he is the protagonist of the play and the "merchant" in the title.

My Dad played drums in his youth and even got to sit in once with Bix Beiderbecke's band. I feel fortunate that he had me listen to big bands when I was learning to play 'cause guys like Gene Krupa, Buddy Rich, and Louis Bellson made you want to put in the time to sound like that.

@vbspurs I’ve never seen an episode of Friends. Seinfeld. Pretty much anything after Gilligan’s Island (of which I have entire 30” airings memorized to the delight of the ER nurses).

@SandyofCthulhu I lived in San Diego for over 40 years and absolutely fell in love with fish tacos. Stopping at the local Rubio's to pick up dinner for the family was a real treat.

@Mathair_ @GeoRebekah @goblue5725 Whereas you are just an absolute... delight. And apparently very emotionally invested in defending the honor of the former Mrs. Bezos. Take care.

Men think this is an improvement. MacKenzie Scott, Princeton graduate, writing novels at age six, studied under Toni Morrison, founded Amazon, and one of the biggest philanthropists in the history of humanity. Versus.. whatever the fuck this is.

Do y'all do this? If so where'd you learn it? For me I think it was the movie Poltergeist. Maybe.😁

@sparkly_jules1 I guess people don't count the seconds between the lightning and the thunder any more.
