Write a controversial opinion

I haven't seen the whole thing. It borrows some of the best parts and is a higher budget film that the original was, so it seemed to be reasonable
I still haven't spotted all of the hidden ghosts, but it's a fun hunt every time I watch it.

It's also the only netflix show I have on dvd.
 
I assumed the original point was that all women with smaller breasts were already getting other hands. The assumption being only large breasted women are faithful. Just following another possibility.
Both possibilities are unforgivably bustist!
 
@AwkwardlySet The Who and Led Zeppelin are basically the same band, and largely interchangeable.
When I want to confuse people, I usually play them the Rock Aid for Armenia version of Smoke On The Water, and then proceed to explain how Brian May, David Gilmour, and Ritchie Blackmore are all guitarists from the same band. It never works these days, mostly cause youngsters have no clue who either of them is. 😄
 
From another thread but fits better here…
I've had two dozen PMs with Laurel over 11+ years after maybe three dozen attempts to ask her something, and I bet I'm so far above the average that I might as well be a star in the sky.
Some of us aren’t convinced you aren’t Laurel.

;)/2…. (Only Half joking.)

If I was Laurel, Lafayette Hills would have a green E. It is a thing I want so badly that I petitioned her directly for it, years back.

I understand, though.
 
There is no such thing as "epic fantasy". There are only people who have no idea how to get to the fucking point, and editors too timid to tell them, "If you need more than 1,200 pages to tell your story, you're a horrible writer."
As much as The Wheel of Time annoyed me, one thing it did do was create an "epic" feel. The end of the world was coming, and *everybody* was invited.

So often it seems that only a handful of characters are aware, and the rest of the world never know anything about it. It always makes me wonder what would happen if the heroes lost. Would all those other people wake up one morning to an apocalyps, without knowing what caused it or why nobody had stopped it?

Memory, Sorrow and Thorn also had an epic scope, but for me it missed that sense of "the end of the world for everybody".

Way to dismiss the 1200-page epic fantasy slow burns from the shortsighted PoV of the mere 400-page regular fantasy strokers 😛

There are a few truly epic series, and an awful lot of fantasy authors who just keep on going and publishers who let them, because too many teenage-brained readers think one book was fun, a trilogy will be even better. Or even a trilogy of trilogies (glares at Yet Another Bloody Noun of Shannara...)

Some books deserve to be 1200 pages (Cryptonomicon), others are just 200 pages with a lot of repeats. (cf the difference between 20 years of experience and the same year of experience 20 times...)
 
The year Pearl Jam’s Ten hit the airwaves, for some reason I thought it was just Led Zeppelin songs I hadn’t heard before.

Don’t ask me why - that was also appallingly bad discrimination. I have no idea today what tf I was thinking

The guitarist who comes closest to Jimmy Page riffs is Jack White, so it was pretty cool seeing that video from several years back with Page, White, and The Edge, swapping riffs.

I had something similar the first time I saw Wanna Be by Spice Girls on MTV. For some reason I thought it was an older song that they were playing and I hadn't heard it on the radio yet, so I had no reason to think it was a new song.
