Rather surprised at the number of my age mates who have not transitioned to being the cooks for large family gatherings. Imagine my surprise when I learned people have 60+ year olds in the floor for hours making food. Why would you let that happen

People around me have been talking about Thanksgiving, and I've been aghast. Stand up!! Tell those older adults to sit down and take some rest. Their job is to make a dessert and otherwise hangout. I cannot imagine having my 80+ year old grandma standing in a hot kitchen for hours.

I think DB needs to be on the floor more. We could see Allisha getting frustrated every time someone scored over her and Angel was pissed. Rookie gonna rook. I think they need a calm person on the floor who has been here and won before.

I'm sure it wasn't the first, but it's the first one I really remember, Halloween: Resurrection

First film you saw at the cinema. The real first one, not the pretend one you tell people! Mine: The Empire Strikes Back, 1980, Wigan. We were near the front and I can still remember how massive the AT-ATs looked, looming over us out of the snow :) Film, year, where, and whatever stuck with you.

For the umpteenth time I've been recommended red rising, and on its surface it seems like the type of series that's right up my alley. However, the last time I tried reading that book I DNF'd it in the first 20 pages because the number of pee references put me off.

I do think that's part of what heated them up. They've also usually responded to their chat by saying they'll develop their own opinion after playing it. I also think we exist on an Internet that assumes everyone has seen all the same information, so everyone assumed they knew who made the game.

Should they have gotten so defensive? No, but I'm not surprised given their history with their chat. As someone who watched it in real time, I do think it's being blown well out of proportion.

Nor does it really provide context for why they got defensive, but I also think a person would only get that if they watch rdc stream (which I do). They have a long history of being called all types of things by their chat any time they try to play a new game, incl "golf with friends"
