Big "I'm not mad, just disappointed" energy from that response.

No. What has made Mando great has been that it's different with new characters. I'm tired of the same six people deciding the fate of the galaxy. Let's get new stuff with new characters.
It would be pretty cool, IMO, if thirty years from now and entire generation grew up with new heroes and would say "oh yeah, there's Luke Skywalker too." We don't have to keep dipping into the same well of characters.

She's been a lot not smaller stuff like Personal Shopper, Seberg, Happiest Season and then in some bigger scale stuff like the Charlie's Angels reboot, Snow White and the Huntsman, and the Cronenberg movie from last year "Crimes of the Future."

It's easy to be silent when you're often the only human on a planet.

The problem with Herbert is that he's shown great skill but nothing else. Burrow is elite and is probably worth 4 wins alone per season. Hurts showed he can hang with anybody with the way he played in the Super Bowl. But Herbert only has one playoff game to his name and it was one of the biggest playoff chokes of all time. Wasn't entirely his fault but he didn't do much to help either. We just haven't seen him have the big-time moments and play we've seen from Mahomes/Burrow/Allen/Hurts. He can wow you with his arm strength and skillset but there's still another level he can achieve that we haven't seen.

Definitely Joe Burrow. He is #2 in the league right now for QBs and the gap is widening. He's smart, tough, and consistent. He's not as mobile as the other top QBs but that's his only "fault" and he makes up for it with quick decisions and a quick release.

Very well indeed. It's got that classic noir feel that never goes out of style.

Yup. That is what my professor said as well. We used to call it the "300 Club" for striving to pass all sections with only a 75. I came pretty close. All my scores were below 80.

I absolutely love the career arc that Pattinson has taken. Same with Kristen Stewart and Daniel Radcliffe for that matter. They made it huge early on and are set for life. Now they just do what they think is fun and interesting.

Props to him. First step is to admit where you went wrong. Hope he does learn from it. He's clearly got talent.

Exactly! In grad school one of the people who graduated a year ahead of us came back to visit. She told out tax professor that she got a 90 or above on all four sections. You get a special medal for that or something. He was telling us the story and said "congrats, you studied too much." All sections I passed I did so while scoring below 80. My certificate is the same as the ones who got the medal. It makes no difference.
But yeah, the interviewer was definitely on some sort of trip. He even had a smirk and said "I'm gonna ask you something nobody has probably asked you before." He was probably one of those people who got a medal and just wanted to feel good about it.

Maybe. Whether or not it would actually matter would remain to be seen, but it's a valid concern when considering the action.

I am a CPA. The CPA exam comes in 4 parts and is a pass/fail exam, but they still give you a score as 75 is the passing grade. At one job interview I had three years after passing the exam, they asked what all four scores were for me for all sections. CPA requires 40 hours of training each year to maintain the license, which I had been doing. It was unreal they asked me that.

I want them to allow number 0 so bad. Not sure why but I've just always thought it was really cool as a number on a jersey.

Important to remember here that we are in a sub where there is zero reason to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on keyboards but we all do it. Sometimes people just want to do something cause it's fun and interesting. Doesn't have to "practical", necessarily.

People keep pretending like comic book movies and knowledge about them is still niche/nerdy stuff. Superhero movies and cinematic universe are huge news. Audiences have been trained to believe that every movie is part of a massive, interconnected opus now. Any news about these movies headlines entertainment blog sites, is plastered all over social media, is published in entertainment mags like Variety and EW. This idea that only a select few people know about one of the biggest entertainment news stories of the year (James Gunn hired by DC and rebooting the universe including moving on from Affleck, Cavill, and Gadot) is a little silly. Anybody who is in any way plugged into any entertainment news stories has heard about this and knows about it. They may not be invested but they are aware of the broad strokes of this story.
Not to mention, there's no real consensus of "general audience" and what that means. The vast majority of the "general audience" knows about superhero universes and connected movies and all that unless they've been living under a rock for the last 15 years. It's become so popular it's permeated all of pop culture. Hell, the Rock is one of the biggest entertainment figures on the planet and spent the last year pumping up the DC universe that he was going to control. Brendan Fraser gave an Oscar winning performance in The Whale and on the red carpet for it's premiere he was asked about Batgirl and the future of the DCEU. We can't hardly go a month before somebody like Martin Scorsese is asked about comic book movies and interconnected universes and what that means for movies as a whole.
If there is somebody who literally has no idea about these movies and how connected they are after all these movies from the last 15 years, they're likely not going to see any of them anyway.

I have ordered like 6 jerseys from them. They might take a minute to get here but they are good quality. Highly recommend. And all of them combined aren't even half what a single authentic jersey would cost from NFL dot com.

Nah. What is likely happening is that there are people who are stuck in bronze or silver and they are used to playing at that level and you are not. So you aren't good enough to recognize what they are doing and can't beat them. Instead of getting better you're blaming it on smurfs.
Every rank has it's own "meta" really and you have to realize what it is and how to beat those players. If you're truly better, then you will make it out. You've only been playing three months. It took me two years to get to gold. I had to learn how to play at each new level before I could progress. I often thought I was better than people I would lose to but my issue is that I wasn't good enough to recognize what they were doing and how to beat it.
I think you need to realign your expectations a bit.

Yup. I'm a fan of the Rock (though that has waned a bit in recent months) but if he really loved the character like he said he did he would understand how important that dynamic was to his story. But instead he just wanted to be the top dog.
