IMO even with all its problems Predators was possibly the best thing in the franchise.

If thats my take how will I feel about this movie?

BBNO$ who the fuck do you think you are?

I mean... "Epstein Ranch" will get you a killer deal now but when your grandkids sell it and nobody cares anymore its probably a pretty good investment.

A friend of mine bought a murder house renovated and sold it for quadruple his investment 8 years later once nobody cared anymore.

I know this is a joke but as someone who works in logistics pack it like its going to be handled by a minimum wage worker whose time and volume metrics are closely tracked. Because it is.

To you its special, to them its 1 of 200 today.

Some cases yes, some cases they are just being more blatant about it. Either way I think we can agree that the publicly percieved gap is definitely narrowing.

Their public perception is being normalised. Russia, Israel, USA... all doing shit that China has been demonised over for decades.

They arent getting better, their peers are being revealed as no better.

Because the DOW is over 50,000!

I mean this both ironically and unironically.

Enthusiasts are also terrible for advice.

For 95% of people a high end soundbar is going to tick all their boxes and then some. 95% of enthusiasts asked for advice will tell you they suck and you're wasting your money.

I dont want every thing in my life to be a minor hobby. Good Enough is just that.

Also people who by and large havent been out living wild social lives for quite a while. Laser beam focused on one goal. Once you have competed, one way or another the pressure is off and you are surrounded by people who are in the exact same position.

Its so prevalent that I had an idea for a movie of a bunch of recently retired dudes being bored with getting old and deciding to re-enact a bunch of their favorite pranks from old movies only to get in JUST far enough to be in deep shit and then realise they are committing felonies and their antics trying to extract themselves.

Fair. Rereading it it is a little ambiguous.

Want to punch it up a little add some egg and some cheese to the potato and fry dollops of it in the pan with the spam fat.

 

I realised today that I cannot actually remember the last time I felt relaxed. I'm so fucking tired.

 

The memes about it coming starting to pop up in mid october. Its one joke about the song being overplayed, the joke is never original, Ive never seen a creative version of it. If old people have "boomer humor" whats the short term for "Millenials without two brain cells to rub together who will share on any joke that they understand"

The song is well produced overplayed pandering pop garbage. The jokes about it suck more.

 

Ive been looking into what I can put together for the price I can get a Samsung q990f system for and this reciever seems to do everything I want and it has the benefit of being cheapish.

Essentially I want to watch 4k blurays on a 4k tv with good surround sound. I love the "one box, minimal wires, no legwork" nature of the Samsung. That has value to me. BUT its not quite as good and if something in the bar goes dead, the whole setup is pretty much garbage. So I'm exploring my options.

Second hand receivers that arent 15 years old are still demanding half of what that receiver costs me new, and it seems to have everything that someone setting up a budget 4k 5.1 home theater could want. So, thoughts?

 

Ok, I need an honest, no BS assessment on how a Samsung q990d system will compare to a cheap 5.1 (or 7.1 etc) system.

I can get a q990d for $1400aud which includes rear speakers and a sub. Will connest with the samsung tv and its all just ready to go out of the box.

Surround sound setups range from free to $40,000... of course a well thought out setup will be better but I just want to hear the cars overtaking me when I watch Ford Vs Ferarri.

For the "sub 2k" price bracket. As a novice, how much am I leaving on the table really?

 
 

You still look a bit of a dick, but so much less bad now.

 
 

17x7.5,, has a made in england stamping but no definitive stampings for pcd, offset or centerbore. Look like RS Cosworth wheels but arent. Has a retaining bolt hole for the flat bolt hole cover (which I'll post in another comment, which matches some 90s ford wheels) owner says they came off a Peugeot but my fellow french car enthusiasts say they definitely arent an OE Peugeot wheel.

 

Yes, Its a Nazi salute. I just didnt want to load the question.

 

 

If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997... which was 28 years ago this year.

Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.
