IMDb user ratings, especially for recent films. Joker is currently the 9th ranked movie on the site. I haven't seen it but I have the feeling that if I did I could name far more than eight better films. Of course this is nothing new. Remember when Star Trek Into Darkness was new and it was briefly higher than Gone with the Wind on the Top 250?

I like to call Star Trek into Darkness STD for short.

The issue is with how the site works. I think it prioritizes newer films, that have more views and people who have seen them. I liked Joker, but yeah that's a tad ridiculous.

I know someone who treats the ratings on imdb like the word of God and it blows my mind that they're like "Are you sure that movie is good? Only 6.2 on imdb..."

User ratings in general are something that sounds good in theory but usually end up being pretty shit.

Starting at midnight, the power will be turned off in my home county for a few days, so I won't be available for anything after today.
My most wanted fight ever is Discord vs Bobobo-bo bo-bobo.
Godzilla has a regen like Wolverine, a skin like Luke Cage, a hero aura like Captain America, a strength like Hulk, an unstoppability like Juggernaut, an immortality like Deadpool.

There's a 'God' in Godzilla for a reason...

Everyone laugh at the People's Republic of California

In seriousness I do hope this passes without anything bad happening. Is cutting the power to avoid wildfires a common occurence or is it just now in the wake of the Camp Fire that they're doing it?

Unga Bunga is for cavemen, Ooga Booga is for witch doctor masks.

I think I finally understand what's wrong with my family. All they care about is money.

Oof. My area isn't affected YET. Near us is though. The short version of all this is that the executives of PG&E are absolutely incompetent. After the San Bruno explosion, the recent MASSIVE WILDFIRE caused by faulty power lines of theirs, spending lots of money on ads highlighting how much they "care about their communities" (not the executives in the ads though, the workers. Which is weird because no one blamed the workers for any of this to my knowledge.)

And now a good number of homes across California will be without power, internet, all that for up to a week. I hope everyone stays safe because that's some purge shit.
Drink 32oz of water a day, exercise daily for at least 30 minutes, take your meds as prescribed, eat healthy (count calories), reach out to your support network when you need them, practice basic hygiene, learn from your mistakes, forgive yourself for your failures, admit when you're wrong, be humble when you're right, be nice to animals, and try again.

I can not find a good HQ scan of MUTO Prime's profile for my MONARCH Files fan videos. And it's driving me crazy.

The fact that everyone needs to play Devil's Advocate with politics nowadays. I bitched about the right during Obama's 8 years. Let me bitch about the left now. I'm well aware that the root problem is people being sore losers with elections.

I was annoyed but then I decided it's not really something I need to rant on about online. Move on!

Is it me? Somebody tell me it's not just me who's questioning this! Why does Wikipedia constantly need 2 bucks to thrive for years to come...and then they need two more a couple months later.

Been awake for 40-odd hours with precious little to show for it and all the little annoyances are adding up.

It seems recently that a few sites that were once readily accessible to the public have now suddenly and with little warning turned to actively making it harder to use if not a member or while logged out. Why? Is it just that we're easier to datamine when registered or what

Dating. I know I'm attractive, kind, and stable enough to be a really good girlfriend, but it seems everyone I'm compatible with is only dating for hook-ups, polyamorous (totes respected, just not me), or way too masculine for me to find any attraction in them. I hate how many college kids there are around here too.
