In the grand old age of Marvel comics, Stan Lee had a rule. If you submitted a nitpick or a plot hole, you were supposed to FIX it: find an in-world explanation of how it could have worked. If you did that sucessfullyy, you were awarded a "no-prize".
Give me your best Star Wars nitpicks. No reasonable criticisms or analysis, I'm talking real pedantic here.

The "no-prize" was a loving interaction with the text. The fandom has forgotten the no-prize and now we have this leering, mocking, cinema-sins shit.

The japanese were the first to isolate umami. Before MSG they had other things that added umami.

It’s very funny that Japan got their only seasoned food from the Brits (curry), which is also their only seasoned food

The people enraged by the lady-translation are particularly irked at not calling a woman a bitch!
She could have used the vernacular "bitch", which is what "kynopidos" actually implies.

This is making me crazy! He's NOT the Last Samurai! He's the Last Samurai's FRIEND.

That already happened it’s called the last samurai! Help me Tom Cruise… Help me Oprah Winfrey!
Community note
Tom Cruise does not play the role of a Japanese person in this movie nor he is the titular Last Samurai. He's an American Civil War veteran hired to train the new modernised Japanese army who is captured by samurai then ends up fighting alongside them.

He actually looks more normal and human in this image. Like a regular elderly man instead of the alien combover.

Not only a good poem, but it's a good choice for schoolkids, since it's obviously relevant to their lives and the choices before them.

Motherfuckers be citing a mediocre film adapation as though it were the text!

Can anyone explain to me how a scrawny little female is going to come anywhere near replicating this?

This is the weirdest thing about gen-z, and I see it constantly. A 30 year-old movie is unwatchable???
Bitch, we used to watch Laurel and Hardy!!!

Your kids are unlikely to appreciate Lord of the Rings.
The first film came out 25 years ago. Say you try to get them to watch it when they are 10, 5 years from now. Then it will be 30 years ago.
When you were 10 years old, did you like films that were made 30 years ago?

Such a weird menu. 2-8 are just "lean" with different levels of 'swole". 9,11, and 12 are identical. 1 and 10 are the only ones that aren't flavors of "gym bunny' or 'fatass.'

Can we stop talking about American bread for a moment, and have a conversation about the deplorable state of Asian food in Europe?

The thing is, what if disordered hormone signals ARE THE ROOT CAUSE?
We tend to think of obesity as having psychological roots. What if it's caused by a physical disorder and GLP-1s are the cure?
Apr 26
The issue I have with GLP-1 DRUGS (ozempic) is that they dont adress the root cause of why people gained weight in the first place
Most people gain most of the weight they lost once they stop using these synthetic drugs

Whenever you see a black lady with this typa hair in a show or movie or whatever, that means the show's for white people. Black women do NOT wear their hair like this, anyone who's been around Real Ass Black Women, knows they hate their hair and get WEAVES as soon as they have the money for it. Hell they get them even if they DON'T have the money for them. Buying weaves, taking care of their weaves, etc, is an enormous part of the black lady experience. They have jokes about how they have to smack their scalps when they get itchy because you can't scratch your weave without messing it up, jokes about how you have to have sex on top or in doggy (no hair pulling!!) because missionary messes up your weave, etc. But white folx don't understand this, and they have this noble savage view of black women where they're like, we LOVE your natural hair!! Like when it's so big and poofy! Embrace it... you go girl!!! this is actually where the "don't touch my hair" black lady meme came from, where they'd grow out their hair and white people would take this obsequious worshipful attitude towards it, wanting to touch their hair as if they're touching the hem of Jesus's garments, but of course black people noticed that this was white people putting themselves in a supplicant position, so they quickly turned it into a weapon against white folx. Anyway, this kind of media is ironic in that it makes white folx understand black people LESS, you'll never see some black lady in star wars with a pin-straight red ombre weave and long-ass nails, the look that 90% of REAL black women have, it's all about this ideal black woman who acts white but has gorgeous cocoa skin and big poofy natural hair, the libs are truly shameless and pathetic

When the black lady with the afro and/or a few extra pounds shows up, you know your favorite geek franchise is cooked forever.
Like seeing a flatline on an EKG.

TV tropes and its consequences have been a disaster for media literacy.

The joke with Uncle Rodger isn’t “Asian guy talks funny” it’s Uncle Rodger is a terrible food snob and he’s complaining about white people misinterpreting his cuisine. This is universal. He sounds like my dad bitching about bagels and pastrami.

What’s funny here is that Irish has perfectly consistent phonetic spelling, unlike the absolute shitshow that is English.
Mar 25
Irish spelling vs pronunciation is always such absolute bullshit you can really tell it’s supposed to be written out using, like, potato runes and they just sorta threw the Latin alphabet stuff together an afterthought. Sidhe pronounced ‘she’ get the fuck outta here

Does Spielberg not understand what a “trope” is?
#StevenSpielberg says he’s finally directing a Western:
“There will be horses. There will be guns. There will be no tropes, I can tell you that,” he said. “There’s going to be no stereotypes,” he said. “And it kicks ass.”
While discussing his upcoming UFO film “Disclosure Day,” Spielberg joked that he got excited after hearing Barack Obama’s comments about extraterrestrial life.
“When President Obama made that comment, I thought, ‘Oh my god, this is so great for ‘Disclosure Day.’ This is amazing,’” he said during a #SXSW keynote conversation. “Then two days later, he stepped back the comments and said what he believed in was life in the cosmos — which, of course, everybody should believe in. Because no one should ever think that that we are the only intelligent civilization in the entire universe.”

Why do they need to make excuses for somebody to not serve in the military? What kind of fucked up society are we now, that we EXPECT service?
Mar 2
The White House says Barron Trump is “too tall” at 6'9" for military service.
David Robinson was 7'0" and put his NBA career on hold to serve in the Navy. Height clearly wasn’t an excuse then and it isn’t now.
