It could literally be a massive box office success that had a huge cultural impact and someone will call it underrated because they haven’t seen someone make a reddit post about it in the last week.

Reply to comment by thehofstetter in Why did Vue 412 close? by thehofstetter
If an owner died and it was successful the family would keep it going. If they were bought out it’d be a new restaurant and there would be signs, if the lease ended and they didn’t renew obviously they didn’t make enough money lol, if the health dept closed them wtf would you go back there then haha. Just cause I got downvoted doesn’t mean you’re not a dunce for posting this

Reply to comment by Capnhuh in Life is the freest thing, yet we monetize it by overlyfascinated
Well, no, I never said anything about not working. And that's the part I'm agreeing on you with. Humans have and forever will have to work.
But the point being is that we now work monetarily. We work for A literal physical substance that's now a necessity. We Need to it to have shelter, we need it to obtain food, we need it to obtain water etc..
But all of these human necessities are divinely free. You can go hunt your own food, you can go drink from a river, you can go and build your own shelter. And although living in a society gives convenience. Everything is ultimately free.

Reply to comment by lydiardbell in Pendragon by DJ MacHale is one of the best series I've ever read. by nucleartaco130
I didn’t mind because Third Earth was my favourite territory. A proper optimistic future is rare to see, and the fleshing out of it made it all the more impactful when it began to crumble. I liked the scariness of how failure on First Earth could ripple through time as well.

We have to stop expecting companies to do the right thing on their own. They won't. They never will. Pass the damn regulations.

Ah, I had heard about the VPs and up being required 3 days a week. I thought they were saying that had already been happening and they were going to make a new announcement on Monday (aka all other employees)

Reply to comment by Agamemnon420XD in Hollywood’s Covid Protocols Get Expiration Date; Vaccine Mandate Will End by LordHyperBreath
The 1918 flu no longer exists. You can tell by the fact that tens of millions of 20-30 year olds are not dying every year.
Covid still exists, you can tell because 200k are still dying every year, covid is still the third greatest cause of death in the US, just below heart disease and cancer, and because people are still being crippled by the hundreds of thousands due to long covid. Most of all of these young people.
Why so many? Because they are not being careful enough - not wearing masks, not keeping distance, not getting vaccinated, or even all three. Because government and industry has decided it is too expensive to deal with covid. Because they need the serfs and peons - that's you - back at your jobs and recreation so that profit is restored to the wealthy. Globally, this is happening - not just in the US.
And this is exactly what happened in 1917. And 1915, too.
And, like I said before, 1918 happened.
Because Nature doesn't give two shits about your precious, precious freedom. All Nature cares about is reproduction. Viral reproduction.

Reply to Are there any games that you've previously owned and regret selling since they're now too rare and expensive to ever buy back? by HopefulMyriad1
I had Godzilla PS4. Was really excited that I could get 40 bucks for it after I played the hell out of it and sold it.
I regret this decision immensely.

Reply to comment by mavrick_the_old in TIL In the West the largest meal of the day has historically been eaten at midday. It was not until Napoleon's empire there was the "abominable habit of dining as late as seven in the evening" as British travelers reported. The British adopted later dinners by 1850 from changes in work schedules. by jamescookenotthatone
Normally lunch and breakfast are smaller then dinner.

The Korean air flight code shares with delta. To Korea it was/is operated by Korean air. To the US it was/is operated by delta.
OP, if you can afford the non-stop it is worth it. Flown through DFW, SF, DC, and Istanbul Boston<->Seoul and direct is worth it.

Reply to comment by AnalystOk5065 in Struggling dating someone with BPD [M18] [F18] by Double_Rip_441
I don't feel like I can't leave the relationship, I easily can if I just let it end. On her off days, she immediately goes to wanting to break up so she doesn't have to handle it. It's only after I talk to her and help her work through it where she backpedals on wanting to end it. The only reason I do is because I don't want to leave her, I love her more than anything and I've been in many relationships, some toxic and some great, but I've never loved anyone the way I do her. She's perfect and I want to figure this out
