What is a film whose trailer alone presaged its success?
  • The original Matrix trailer was such stylish mystery and intrigue. Media consumption volume of the average person was drastically less than today and its release predated wide broadband availability. IYKYK but that film dropped like an absolute hype bomb and deserved all the love & success it received.

  • People will come to work and say "oh sorry, I can't read that since I'm not wearing my glasses" and I'm like "why would you go anywhere without glasses if you need glasses?" I just don't understand it.

  • I literally slapped myself in the face like in the movies. Then I pulled over for a 30 min nap when I got to a rest stop.

    Hasn't happened yet
  • I have heard this my entire life and now that I recently have kids and a home, I find it to be an insane take. If anything, the greater my knowledge of the world becomes the MORE liberal I am. I'm significantly more aware of rigged systems and injustice as I age.

    Advice on how to learn about guitar?
  • You def won't be able to play EVERYTHING. Probably most things actually. But I bet there is some song you like or your parents kinda liked (that you don't mind) that only uses A, D, C, G, Am, Em, Dm.

    Advice on how to learn about guitar?
  • In addition to finding some online instruction, I highly recommend looking for a song you actually want to play instead of just folk songs and traditionals. Unless you're a die hard jazz fan, I'm certain if you made a list of 10 songs you'd be able to find a tune within reach. There are so many songs built with open chords that most beginners learn first, defiantly seek them out!

    Those of you who shower barehanded: Do you lather and then use your hand, or just shove the soap wherever it needs to go?
  • People who use exfoliating gloves and wash clothes are fine and all but it's not like the majority of the world works in high viscosity grease factories. I roll bare-handed and never stink or feel dirty during a typical day.
