Topic | Of the main Simpsons characters which did you like the least? |
GranTurismo 03/12/24 10:49:02 AM #11 | Smashingpmkns posted... I think back then the news and advertising painted Simpsons as a very adult oriented show. They never watched it, at least to my knowledge, and I think they just went with it. Also Bart was probably a big reason why they didn't want me watching it lol Seinfeld and Friends were way more obscene thoyeah they had no prob with seinfeld, seinfeld is more..... |

GranTurismo 03/12/24 10:15:52 AM #6 | Smashingpmkns posted... Simpsons is my favorite sitcom of all time. I do some sort of rewatch every few years. I do love Seinfeld tho.are you a huge married with children fan? that show seems to be way more popular on this site compared to most americans. Same goes for seinfeld. Did you like tv show smallville ? Not big on this site and didn't get huge ratings i thought it was great. |
Topic | Have any of you ever been to a Hooters or Twin Peaks restaurant? |
GranTurismo 03/12/24 9:51:53 AM #65 | Compsognathus posted... Yes to both but only on a small handful of occasions. Hooters does nothing for me as, at least at the time, their menu wasn't terribly vegetarian friendly.you are a vegetarian, you even cut out stuff like milk...? Are you one for like ethical, animal treatment reasons though? |

I applied as a cook at a nearby twin peaks a few years ago thinking it was a restaurant themed after the TV show.yeah i guess i kinda thought that too. The signage is kinda vague. Who knew, the tv show, they are talking about those twin peaks? |

At that time at least the wings were great and wonderfully spicy.oh you wife forbid you to ever go there? |

Topic | UPS driver delivers knockout blow to red light runner |
GranTurismo 03/10/24 10:08:02 PM #14 | argonautweakend posted... I seem to be noticing more and more often people seem to disregard red lights. I don't normally see ones this egregious, but people will assume command of the first few seconds of their now red light seemingly half the time. At least once a week my light will be green but some dumb motherfucker will still be turning - going while it's been red for a second.do you support red light cameras? |

Topic | What was people's problem with Chris Pratt's Mario voice? |
GranTurismo 03/10/24 9:25:49 PM #23 | the_real_Naruto posted... I decided to start the movie today since I never saw it and I'm watching and honestly I kept forgetting Pratt voiced Mario. He sounded nothing like Pratt and everybody's voice actors so far is great. I'm not very far into the movie but I don't know why people threw fits about his voice...like I know the trailers people were complaining but even when the movie came out there were still complaints.he was ok. ryan reynolds det. pikachu was much much better |

GranTurismo 03/10/24 6:16:39 PM #6 | loafy013 posted... Depends. If a democrat is president, people will call it a recession. If its a republican, they will call it a slowdown or something else.Bush jr was prez in 2009 that didn't help him it was officially called that |

Topic | Do any of you here believe the u.s. economy will officially be in a recession |
GranTurismo 03/10/24 6:12:51 PM #4 | pretzelcoatl posted... i think so. maybe not in a year, but the next few years. the actual job market is strong, but I think there's going to have to be some level of reckoning in the near future. there's only ever been one economic soft landing, it's more likely that a recession will happen. no matter what the lines on charts say, the reality is that a lot of people are struggling to afford food and housing at the moment, and at some point the market will have to reflect that reality.One economic soft landing? When? |

GranTurismo 03/09/24 9:14:30 PM #11 | Giacomo_Hawkins posted... No, we were planning an August wedding and had let people know the date and were in the early stages of planning. We were on the verge of printing out invitations when I got a call with a long sought after job offer across the country starting in July so we called the family, told them not to buy travel tickets and hurriedly did the minimum required steps for a civil wedding (minister friend was the officiant, and we had two other friends act as signatories).oh, good story. Everything is going well with your new job in washington and everything? |

GranTurismo 03/09/24 6:44:11 PM #9 | Euripides posted... "Experets" said it was going out of business the whole time I worked there and they only got stronger. They're the only brick and mortar retailer that sells Apple computers (outside of the Apple Store), and they still have a large market share for home theater.they price match amazon, they prob lose a lot of money on that. i thought that like walmart and target sell apple computers. What do you think about gamestop, best buy would outlast them? |

They are usually there for like 15 mins right? |

If it's a job where an extensive education is objectively required and you're given a great deal of responsibility, you need the credentials.
