I remember the uproar over this episode. It seemed to lessen as the years went by, and after Korra premiered it started being talked about in a more forgiving way.
I always loved it. A comedic way to get across a nervous calm before the storm atmosphere.
Steve Jobs is DEAD
Edit: Walt Disney is DEAD
Edit 2: Picasso is DEAD

Okey dokey
I need this on my gravestone.
Because you're projecting your own fantasies?
I mean that was a given regardless.
Who doesn't like Adam
When you watch one movie before the 1990s.
"I have a boyfriend"
me too thanks
Nah you don't
GOOD point
BINGO.
no u
I'm gonna go on a limb and say maybe 10 or 12
Well it's okay because he's just taking a nap.
You've been preparing this gif for a while, haven't you
Spoken like a true 20 year old.
Everybody thinks their wise, but there'll always be someone ten years older saying otherwise.
I should know, I'm only eight.
GOOD point.
I love how the reverse-jerk of GTA V would have you think it’s some mediocre game. If you don’t like it fine, but it’s undeniably a very well made game.
GTA Online has gotten some fair criticism, but the amount of incredible things you can do in it is ridiculous, especially compared to the online of GTA IV.
You're 19, sit the fuck down
I mean to be fair, Downie is only 21 in the clip.
Sucks that TPAB didn't win one. That was an iconic album. Damn was just meh.
Maybe 2015 had a stronger field of competition? The piece that would go on to win was Julia Wolfe's Anthracite Fields, which apparently bridges its compositions with real-life events in a harrowing and haunting way. Maybe Kendrick was considered in 2015 but lost, and in 2017 there was no clear runaway winner so Kendrick got the nod for both DAMN and the albums he made prior.
I'm not upset TPAB didn't win, mostly because we didn't know at the time that hip hop was being considered or eligible. I'm just glad for the breakthrough by such a talented artist so that if there's another incredible genre innovation in the next decade or so, we know that Pulitzer isn't ignoring it on principle because now they have something to show a consideration of wider genres. It feels like future wins and losses are more justified and less closed-minded now, though some will say all of their conventional wins weren't warranted because it's what they usually pick, which is unfortunate for all the classical and jazz albums that genuinely got the vote over the terrific and more popular works beside them.
Happy Stucc Day!!!

This is why I hate this fucking subreddit. I'm getting downvoted to hell and have people sending me PM telling me to fuck off, get a hold of yourselves.
I have to spend 30 minutes cutting and pasting links on my phone because googling "Portugal Decriminalization Benefits and Drawbacks" is apparently an impossible task.
There have been positive and negative aspects to Portugal's direction.
Portuguese homicide and drug mortality rates increase and vary more wildly relative to European trends in the period after decriminalization.

http://archive.boston.com/bostonglobe/ideas/articles/2011/01/16/drug_experiment/?page=full
Persons who have tried illicit drugs 7.8% (2001) to 12%(2007)
Heroin use rose from 0.7% to 1.1%
Cocaine use rose from 0.9% to 1.9%
Yes I know, incarceration rates are down, HIV rates are down (although high in comparison to other European states), treatment rates are up etc etc
I am not saying there are no benefits and I personally fully 100% support full decriminalization so lay off on the death threats or what we dumb shit you are going to send me for daring to present objective thought into a conversation.
Shoutout Mr. Source.
I feel the same way about /r/books. It's just reiterating the things people already love with little variety or contention. I wouldn't mind the same songs or books over and over again if there was discussion of its quality beyond the usual compliments or recounts about the author/musician.
Is there a better sub for literature? I used to browse /lit/ but got fed up with 4chan as a whole back during gamergate and haven't really found a replacement.
/r/literature isn't as popular but isn't nearly as focused on the same few books and topics. It's a lot broader in scope than fantasy and high-school assigned classics, and the conversations seem more two-sided without getting foolishly confrontational (I've seen a few arguments over Ready Player One, and it never ends well).

True. But Netflix is now refusing to allow their films to be shown out-of-competition, in response. Which I feel is unhelpful for all parties.
Yeah, Cannes seemed perfectly fine with having Netflix films shown out of competition, but Netflix didn't seem up for it. Cannes is only against Netflix films being up for competition, possibly due to those films already having a distribution deal and many of the films in competition not having one. That's just from what I've heard however, so take it as you will.
“Why isn’t my favorite film in the collection???”
refer to my flair thanks
What did he do?
Edit: Oh... the new season of Silicon Valley must have been really painful.
enough in the last week
Pao was just used as a scapegoat by reddit to make it more advertiser-friendly. It's a well-known phenomenon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_cliff
I don't think that speaks negatively to her abilities, just that she was used in an inappropriate role for the sake of saving face.
I've seen a lot of "first Criterions" pics featuring Solaris. Some people are adventurous.
For sure. I'd figure Ivan's Childhood was the best place to start with Tarkovsky, though I begun with Stalker and my friend's favorite film (and only Tarkovsky watch to my knowledge) is Solaris, so it's different for everyone.
This is a cool thread!
That's not a very good opening paragraph.
What's this episodes title? Or is there a gif of this scene?
The battle wasn’t concluded. The main character ran away after a crowd of animals started cheering the fighters on and a guru who taught him to access the equivalent of the Super Saiyan power of this show came by floating on a cloud while singing a song about chakras and drinking a juice made of onions and bananas.
as you do
