Man, she was so disturbingly good in that. Her scenes unnerved me significantly more than the ones of Leto and Connelly—and they were on freaking heroin!

No kidding... How strange they both were UK serial baby killers. And Beverley Allitt was convicted before her 25 birthday if I looked at it right. She was caught in '91, so she was doing it as a 23-year-old girl...

ETA: they were both mid-twenties when the murders occurred. I don't know why I got hung up on that, it is just shocking to me that they were so young and doing something so deplorable. I just imagine some older deranged woman doing something like that. Either way...unreal.

I love it when Hank sprays chains

Man, I used to love futuristic racers when I was a kid. I put in some serious hours into the Xtreme G and the N64 version of Star Wars Podracer. Freaking Jetmoto... man, those were the days!

You're right, she should've eaten it. It was SNL after all; maybe that would've gotten a more enticing ambivalent reaction.

She didn't burn it, she ripped it into pieces. She will definitely be remembered as an iconoclast but obviously hasn't held up to be that impactful, as people apparently don't even remember what she did.

It blows my mind so many gaming podcasts I listen to glossed over that when it happened. Like, it was so freaking bad they removed the game from the store, inhibiting anyone from purchasing it digitally. And everyone in the industry covered it like it was just any other bad, poorly launched game. No, it was extremely bad; truly broken in myriad of ways.

I always use them whether playing a game or watching a film; definitely if I'm watching a documentary.

I left after the front page continually recommended the "call her daddy" podcast to me over and over again despite my listening history that couldn't be further from that "content."

Man, I have such vivid memories of going to Toys R Us for the first time (and subsequent times after that, honestly) and being in total awe that the entire store was dedicated to kids' stuff. It's really sad that kids won't get to experience that anymore... I know tech is at the forefront of entertainment, regardless of age, but I would wager any kid would love the same kind of toys we had just as much.

Thanks for the heads up. I definitely want to opt out. I hope this place has some staying power, but I don't want an interconnectedness to flood the home feed with too much ragebait and garbage content anywhere near what reddit turned into.
