Little Things You Hate

[Jpez]

So you wake her up grinding beans and she is the annoying one?

We had a discussion when she was born. The deal was she is supposed to live around us and our needs not the other way around. I said no boob milk unless she agreed.
Hasn’t quite worked out like that though.
Also turns out I’m the one that’s gotten little to no boob since she was born!

I’m thinking a soul patch. Maybe a Van Dyke.

Dare I ask it...a flavour saver?

This isn't painting an inspiring picture of parenthood.

You’re asking the wrong person. @Haakon ?

books that don't put a synopsis on the back but a series of short quotes saying how great it is. if i have no idea what its about i don't care how good someone I don't know says it is.

I thought those shenanigans ended with young kids.

That's how kids make sure there's less competition

I saw an advertisment in a print magazine at work, some sort of anti ageifier, full page add with about eight 5 star reviews plastered across the majority of the page. Reading the reviews i noticed it was always; 'review...' - john smith (fb).
Asked someone what fb means.. facebook.
8 facebook users left 5 star reviews. The company then paid to use them as advertising through a media facebook is killing off.
Reviews are bullshit. I know comics who would get a 'not a great show' - the age. One comedy festival. Next festival smack in the middle of their poster '...great show' - the Age.
Although i've read some pretty shonky synopses in my time also.

Total number of seats in the cinema = 190.
Total number of patrons = 8.

Saw Nobody. Kinda like a middle aged John Wick. Lot's of violence and an eclectic sound track.
Was nice to watch a movie without continually turning the volume up for dialogue and down for action. The joys of small kids.

Looks like a fun movie, anything with Odenkirk in it is good to me.

I can pretty much generalise about everything on offer atm


STINKER!


Studios can’t and won’t release anything decent for a few reasons until the world recovers

The marketing campaigns need to be executed simultaneously world wide to maximise profits. Studios take 45-55% of the ticket price for the first 2-4 weeks a movie plays. They need maximum attendance at the start.

Piracy is still an issue. Even though tracking where a movie was stolen from is easy now, once the cat is out of the bag, many many millions are lost.

Until the majority of US and EU cinemas are back open, it’s b and c grade dregs for now. Or local productions like the Dry, which was really good.


With mutant strains on the loose, I’m starting to think all of 2021 is lost too as far as Hollywood studio releases are concerned.

Fucking hate when the ends of cable outer rolls retract into the box after cutting a piece off.

Sounds a bit like whipper snipper line, drives me insane that stuff.

Trying to find the start of the rim tape is bad enough for me, my short vision is very poor.
