    American Beauty ending is perfection

    loved that movie when it came out. Bought the blue ray years ago and decided to watch it. It just did not hold up for me, I just could not get over how pathetic and creepy the main character is. I dont think it has anything to do what we know about spacey in real life either, I mean just the...

    Movies The message behind Purple Rain (movie)

    yeah the movie wouldnt make it if it was made today with the chauvinistic female abuse stuff. But other then that, the movie was about a guy who had his own demons and was trying to make it past his rival and get his act together. By the end he appears to have done just that. The movie is...

    Crime The killing of Dexter Reed. The new George Floyd? "He was just riding around in his car, and they killed him"

    damn those gunshots sounded like when my popcorn in the microwave is going off. Hopefully the tax payers dont get stiffed again for a dumbass getting himself killed.

    Law CIA Officer Admits To Undercover Journalist That FBI Agents Attended January 6 Protest At Capitol

    feds being at the capitol and even playing a role in inciting the chaos doesnt surprise me in the slightest. Ive figured that was the case all along. However, comments like "you can put anyone in jail if you know what to do...you set them up" should lead to an investigation of this individual.

    Economy Top Democrats push to pay off $50,000 student loans

    i just hate how they phrase it as "loan forgiveness". Not 1 penny is forgiven. Its just passed on to someone else to pay. Me and my wife both have degrees and neither of us took out loans. i worked while going to junior college and then got a job that paid for me to finish my degree since it...

    late night with the devil 8/10 really enjoyed this film. The buildup was great. Not particularly scary though and the final act didnt quite hit with me. But still great film with a unique look and feel as it is a 70's late night talk show. The creepy things happening throughout the film in the...

    Opinion How do Squatters bypass Trespassing Laws?

    i saw one couple years ago where a girl owned home but was out of the states for like a month or so and a squatter moved in and put like a 1000$ into renovations and according to state law a month of staying somewhere and putting money into the house is enough to make a valid tenant claim. This...

    Anyone still do stick shift driving?

    my first 2 cars were manual so Im confident that even though I have not driven a manual in like 20 years I could probably pick it up quickly if need be. However I was recently in scotland and rented a car and the rental place said the vast majority of their vehicles were manual. I guess its...

    College Hoops 2023-2024 Thread (UCONN Back 2 Back)

    I never watch girls basketball and I decided to watch the ucla v lsu matchup. Me and my wife were legit laughing out loud at the quality of play. Im not hating, its just very tough to watch. Admittingly that was more on the ucla side, lsu looked decent before i turned it off halfway through the...

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    we'll see if uber eats employment off sets the jobs lost at the companies. Also because uber eats delivery costs customers more than traditional delivery from the stores directly, its possible we dont see customers ordering delivery at the same rate resulting in a net loss of jobs.

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    If they have a job that is included in this, then of course they will. Although not sure if going from 16 dollars to 20 dollars will necessarily remove you from the paycheck to paycheck demographic. Also we will need to see what happens with job layoffs or reduction in hours. For example a...

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    Im curious to see the long term impact. People who are well off wont care about price hikes. Its the paycheck to paycheck person that might start thinking twice now before going to fast food chains if the prices increase which they already are. I wonder how that will impact these business.

    Social Minimum Wage now at $20 an hour in California

    my mother in law works at starbucks. She was making more than the min wage before but less than 20$ so they bumped her up to 21.50$ per hour so that she wasnt suddenly making the same as the newest employees. I think that will be the interesting thing. If kids out of highschool working taco bell...

    Louis Gossett Jr Dead At 87

    damn rip. He had a stretch of movies I really liked as a kid with enemy mine, iron eagle, toy soldiers and diggstown. Iron eagle in particular was a vhs tape I had on repeat.

    Maestro 3/10 I’ve now watched 9 of the 10 movies from the Oscar’s best film list this year and this one was easily the worst, even worse than Barbie. A biopic period piece about a famous composer/conductor and his relationship with his wife who knows that he is gay and has affairs with men...
