Zeus 05/08/20 10:06:42 PM #401:	Watching Evolution again because I went looking for Shazam! on NF and this was in the search results and I had been meaning to rewatch it for years. Unsurprisingly, I don't remember that much. Surprisingly, one actress -- Katharine Towne (who played Nadine) -- looked really familiar, but I can't find any other credits. However, even more surprisingly, the movie includes a young(er) Ty Burrell (of Modern Family fame). Apparently this was his first movie. I remember the movie being kinda campy garbage, but Seann Willia Scott's shenanigans have so far been even worse than I remembered and Julianne Moore's pratfall was stupid as fuck for a cheap gag. (And the scene with the computer talk is still laughable.) The Wave Master posted... Papa Vince is ticked off at Roman Reigns because he didn't work Wrestlemania. Much like myself, Roman is immune compromised, and decided not to show up and work at the performance center for Mania. I guess recovering and surviving cancer isn't enough of a reason for you not to show up for work. His release might be coming soon, but who knows with Vince. That carnival barker is crazy and upset at the world because he is bleeding money like a stuck piggy. Well, VKM is used to having workhouses be his his champs. Could you imagine Cena sitting out a WM like that? Or Triple H? Honestly, while Roman's concerns seem valid, if this is what it finally takes for him to fall from grace, so be it. The Wave Master posted... Dreams... my dreams died when they took my leg. Naw, I'm joking. Let me think about this for a while, and I will come up with something clever, or at least something deep and profound. (Not likely.) Well, you could always be a pirate? ParanoidObsessive posted... I've never had dreams or aspirations, because I've generally always lived in the moment. I'm not sure how those are mutually exclusive? ParanoidObsessive posted... It's probably the same reason I never really had any idols or role models growing up. Now that you mention it, I don't recall having any of those myself growing up. ParanoidObsessive posted... It's probably also tied to my impatience - if I want something, I generally act to accomplish that thing as quickly as possible (this is why I make an absolutely terrible person to buy presents for - if I want something I already own it, if I don't already own it I probably don't want it and won't appreciate it). So I've never really had the mindset of "Someday, I hope I can do X" as much as I tend to just get shit done and then appreciate it later. Which is probably why I haven't done a lot my stuff either -- it's not something I can accomplish quickly. And if I can't do something quickly, I tend to get sidetracked. The Wave Master posted... I grew up super poor, and didn't have much, and wanted for everything, and made due with the little I did have. Which is why I don't have a lot of dreams either. When you grow up poor and desperate then you learn to not be a dreamer at a very early age, and learn to focus on the here and now. A lot of times when I did get excited for something it lead to disappointment. I just became a realistic person at an early age. Uhhh... people who grow up super poor tend to have dreams, though. They tend to be pretty limited dreams -- like athletics, music/entertainment, etc -- but they're still dreams. The only real exception is people growing up in poor in isolated regions where they don't really know what's out there. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| There are precious few at ease / With moral ambiguities / So we act as though they don't exist. <cite>Zeus posted [p:938854379] in H1Geek1...
