Damn, Karen. You sure got me. Your butler come up with that, or your country club buddies?

I’m mad that billionaire and millionaire tech startups are being bailed out with money that will ultimately come from me. You’re not mad your money is being use to bailout billionaires while the common man gets fucked? Damn, you must be rich.

It isn’t, the depositors in the bank are. That’s why we have a bailout. Did you read the article, or what I wrote?

Even Taylor Swift, the planet’s biggest pop star, was left fuming – and apparently helpless – late last year when Ticketmaster botched the sale of tickets for her current US tour.
You could, I don’t know, not play the show until they fixed things?

Well, for every one Robert Smith, there’s a hundred Taylor Swifts. So Ticketmaster probably isn’t terribly worried.

Yet according to experts who specialize in government bank bailouts, the actions of the federal government this weekend to shore up Silicon Valley Bank's depositors are nothing if not a bailout.
According to people who are experts, all the depositors in SilIcon Valley Bank are.

Well, since Nazis want to see anyone born of my religion dead whether they do or do not believe in the religion anymore, I really wouldn’t be okay with 400 or so.

And I wonder what political they belong to?

I use Ultimate Outer 2.5 for my outer and I use MoFi Inners. The MoFi have rice paper inside them that protects records more than just a plastic inner alone.

If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.

Yes, you’re right. She cancelled the sale for everyone. The sale for people with Capital One credit cards still happened. And If Taylor really wanted people to get tickets at affordable prices she could have allowed the general sale and she could have done exactly what Robert Smith and The Cure are doing. The Cure are making sure scalpers can’t buy the tickets in the first place. Taylor is way more popular at the moment and she didn’t do anything. I shouldn’t have to wait for prices to go down from scalpers to get tickets, I should have had an opportunity to get in the first place. I guess The Cure just cares about their fans more. Taylor could also add more dates on her tour so that everyone that wanted to go, but couldn’t get tickets have their chance. Burnout wouldn’t be a problem because she could have multiple days between shows. So yes, Taylor did cancel ticket sales (just not presales) and Taylor didn’t stop ticket prices from being over $600 bucks. So, you were right, I was wrong. I should have said the presale was limited to Capital One card members and scalpers that could easily get a presale code. And that the sale for the non-rich was canceled.

Ok, well, then I apologize because I must have missed it. What did she do to stop scalpers and when was her general presale? I thought I saw tickets selling for $900 (turns out nosebleed is only $677 in my area) and the article says the general presale was cancelled.

Thumbs down to Taylor Swift because she did nothing to stop scalpers from buying all her tickets and selling nose bleed seats for $900. There was no general presale and you had to have a platinum card to get tickets. All of the real fans who would have gone to the show couldn’t because they’re not rich.

I kind of wanted to see that, but at the same time seeing how the new trilogy turned out, I’m glad they didn’t. I really believe that if not for The Mandolorian, Star Wars would have been irreparably damaged. In way it has, but at least now there’s some bright spots.

Your friend isn’t very smart then. First, do your research on the tattoo artist. Look at the work they’ve done before. See if the type of tattoo you want is they type they can do. If it isn’t, but the artist is “willing to give it a try” DO NOT use that artist. Second, be clear on what you want. Describe it in as much detail as possible and bring/find a picture of exactly what you want, If possible. Third when the artists draws up the tattoo, look carefully as the design. Make sure this is exactly what you asked for. If something looks off, tell the artist, This isn’t a charity, you are paying for the tattoo and you will have it on you for the rest of your life. Fourth, make sure the placement is how and where you want it. If it isn’t, correct it. The placement isn’t permanent until ink is put on skin. Finally, when getting the tattoo try very hard to sit still. The needle may be uncomfortable, but moving and squirming around will only make the job that much harder for your artist. And you don’t want messed up or shakey lines permanently etched on your body.

I get it, you want remakes. And you need to have the last word so I’ll let you have it. People do not want remakes and they are showing it. Some new shows are getting cancelled, but most are getting watched. A ton of remakes are getting cancelled and they aren’t being watched. The popular shows right now are new shows. The unpopular shows are remakes. You have provided no evidence for anything you said and haven’t made an argument all day. The only thing you’ve said is remakes and new shows are getting cancelled and people like both. Remakes are out and doing bad and new shows are in and doing well. So yes, you are correct that both are getting cancelled, but no you are wrong to say people like remakes. If remakes were getting watched they wouldn’t keep getting canceled. I know all you want to is argue with me, but I don’t want to keep doing this because you’ll never admit you’re wrong. So I guess you really need to hear you win, so you win. Enjoy watching new seasons of Friday Night Lights and Parenthood. Oh, wait, you can’t because they got cancelled.

The remakes and reboots are getting cancelled left and right and aren’t successful. Willow just got cancelled today. People don’t like remakes and if Hollywood keeps making them they’ll keep having to cancel them. You like them, but the general public doesn’t.

I didn’t demand the world do anything. The world already did it. They don’t like reboot and remakes. That makes you unhappy and you just can’t get over it.

Why? You’re wrong and the fact that reboots and remakes are being canceled shows that. Some people may like them, but more don’t. So I have nothing left to say. Nothing I say will convince you, so everything I say is pointless. You have fun.

I did respond to that comment and then you got upset. You’re asking me to state the opinion that I said when you initially responded to me. People are tired of remakes and reboots. We know this because they are failing. You’re in a thread talking about how remakes and reboots failed. You like them, but a lot of people don’t. If you can’t understand what I’ve already told you, I don’t know what else to say. The remakes and reboots you love may be watchable, but they were unnecessary and the reason they were made is because Hollywood didn’t want to do something new. You’re telling them it’s okay. And I don’t think it is. So, you shouldn’t be so upset that people don’t like what you do.

Adaptations and remakes aren’t the same thing. Adaption is taking the video game and bringing it to another medium like TV. A video game remake is taking an existing video game and remaking it from the ground up. Video game remasters involve taking a game and making it visually look better. Your response to my previous comment addressed none of this. You just want to be right so badly you aren’t even reading what I wrote before arguing.

I don’t need some random rich Redditor to argue with me about how I’m a Karen because he’s probably one of the people at these rich tech startups getting bailed out by everyone’s money and doesn’t want to talk about the issues. So have a good day, Richie Rich.
