Almost four decades here (yes, before the Web), the best I could come up with was “‘Bout to find out.”

And Inception!

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

I’m gonna be “that guy” and point out that 2000 was technically the end of the 20th Century.

The 21st didn’t start until January 1, 2001.

And yes, people hated it when “that guy” pointed this out 25 years ago, too.

Bioshock, Portal and Wii Bowling.

It took me about five nights to get through Heavy Rain, and every night I went to bed feeling like I’d been punched repeatedly in the gut.

Fantastic game that I consider one of my all-time favorites… and I’d NEVER want to go through that again.

Terminator 2 is probably the easiest answer.

Nobody said you can’t be beaten to a quivering, mass of mutilated organs and shattered bones. You just won’t have death to release you from the pain.

Heh heh. Heh heh.

True enough. It seems I blew the assignment, as most of my examples are more fantasy-based than historically accurate. Still fun shows, though.

To be fair, I only saw a few episodes of the first season and had no expectations or notions when I stumbled on it; it seemed fine for what it was.

The other shows I mentioned, though, are actually favorites in our house.

For relatively recent US comedies, Season 2 of Miracle Workers, Galavant, and My Lady Jane were all pretty good. Also, Disenchanted was a pretty good animated series.

It came and went so fast that I assumed it was terrible… until I caught it on streaming and had a blast watching it.

It’s no Citizen Kane, but it’s a great way to spend a couple hours being entertained.

… And they are A-ok with that.

Not immediately, but if fewer people benefit from Reddit, Reddit loses users; if Reddit loses users, it loses content; if it loses content, it has nothing left to sell.

Granted, the cycle will begin anew elsewhere, but that’s the circle of life. Eventually, someone will invent Usenet and/or slam books again.

From my observations at music festivals, I’d guess either Jam Rock or Acid Rock.

Nope. I hated the Muppets on the Moon when they debuted.

I’ve written those same comments so many times over the years.

We all pretend our code doesn’t stink, but show me a developer who’s never left a a turd in a codebase, and I’ll show you someone who’s never been under a deadline.

And they can kill you without legal repercussions.

So remember kids: Legal !== Lethal

Exactly. MacOS is the best of both worlds; it’s my absolute favorite distro of BSD.

Weird. Mussolini’s greatest achievement was at a gas station.
