GM's thread about nothing (28 Viewers)

[UniAlias]

I thought The Leftovers got off to a good start, and it's flagged for me since (the preacher episode most of all), but last week was pretty good. I'm not sure about the whole opening bit with the hooker, but I thought it was a good exploration of their world: the conspiracy theorists, the opportunists, etc. It's OK. I'm gonna stick it out through this season, but I doubt I'm going to be back for the next one. I like the concept, but I don't think the writing's strong enough to carry it.

Halt and Catch Fire is really good. And you're probably not gonna have to worry about a second season, because only about 50 people watched it.

Finished the finale of this tonight. Thought it was pretty average. The main character just seemed so annoying and pretentious that it was hard to give a #### about their whole project. The wife chick is smoking hot though.

I enjoy myself a lead that's a pretentious charlatan.

The Pro Wrestling thread is like 70 pages long. I'm starting to think that an Ebola plague here in the US wouldn't be such a bad thing.

I'm pretty sure TigerFan and I have both spent hundreds of dollars on Wrestlemania tickets. Not sure what that says about us or America.

Buble and wrasslin? Jebus.

Everything I thought I knew about the world is being overturned.

I'd take dudes in leotards fake-throwing each other around over Buble 7 days a week. At least there's shtick involved.

If wrestling were more like this, I'd be all about it:

Pandemonium.

Incidentally, when a post reads "this is the greatest ________", it usually disappoints. This one didn't.

"HOW IS THIS LEGAL?!?!?!" was the best part.

Okay, so I've been trying to get rid of my potbelly - I haven't lost any actual weight according to my old-school scale, but I bought a new (smaller) belt and went through every notch and have to buy a new belt again.

My scale's obviously broken, right? I mean, you can't lose five inches off your waist, gain zero visible muscle, and not lose any weight.

New scale, measured my inch loss on an old cloth belt, and I've lost zero pounds and almost seven inches off my waist.Beginning to get worried, but haven't been cursed by any gypsies lately to my knowledge.

"The Leftovers" tonight (decent show, you should check it out).

Is it? We haven't started watching yet but are on the DVR. I'm about to delete the series and cancel HBO. Talk me out of it.

Pretty bad actually. First episode was ok but intrigued me. The next two were awful. I haven't watched any more and the thread seems to have died too.

True story:

Wife and I watched the latest episode of "The Leftovers" tonight (decent show, you should check it out). If you don't watch the show there is a 40-ish divorced/widowered guy who lives with his teenage daughter. The daughter's best friends lives with them too. There is a very "American Beauty" vibe going on. I keep telling my wife that the dad is going to rail the daughter's friend eventually.

So the previews for next week's episode show a quick clip of the daughter's friend telling the dad "you don't remember what you did last night???"

I turn to my wife and say "See, I told you he was going to bang that girl."

Wife: I don't think he banged her.

Me: BJ?

Wife: No, I think he did something crazy (people do all kinds of weird stuff on this show)

Me: (looking around conspiratorially and then whispering) Anal?

lol.

this show is either absolutely terrible, or pretty good. honestly haven't figured it out yet- but for me so far, it's riding a very annoying vibe where I want everybody in it to get beat up. so at least it's making me feel something

 

[El Floppo]

Leftovers seems awful. Not sure how the guy who hates everything is a fan.

likeable.

 

[El Floppo]

Also, on S2E4 of Homeland. It's been a pretty good ride, but they are going to have to go beyond ludicrous to plaid in order to keep moving this plot (which obviously happens since there are 20+ episodes I haven't watched).

Not going to spoil it for you but Homeland screws the pooch big time.

I'm expecting this. The wheels are already coming off.

There were wheels?

It's really only worth a watch if you're participating in the **Thread**.

it holds true for me at least... the belt gets tighter because my gut is pushing my pants down, creating a new, leaner (to the belt) waist. Look at me- I'm skinnhy!

I'm sorry "The Leftovers" is over most of your heads. Pretty sure there's a "Married to Jonas" marathon coming up later this week.

Still watching the Leftovers, but it has a strong "John from Cincinnati" I don't know when they'll get to the point vibe.

 

[shuke]

2 episodes in, I wanted to bail on Leftovers, but I'm glad I stuck it out. I was actually looking forward to watching it tonight after getting back from the beach, but I figured out my DVR wasn't working since last Tuesday. Apparently it needs electricity.

In other news, I bought a bunch of new stuff for my fridge and a lot of Febreeze.

It's like lost but without the hottest girls or anything fun or anything to talk about the next day. Lots of mystery, some random impossible crap and a bunch of flawed unlikable characters. Maybe the smoke monster snatched up the babies. That would be cool.

Since we've reactivated BeltChat, I forgot to put one on this morning and feel like an idiot. If only there were some sort of system for that.

Great first day in Seattle. Walked around Pike Place Market and grabbed some lunch, had dessert in park overlooking the waterfront, rode the Ferris wheel, swam in the hotel pool for a long while and now a friend is swinging by to take my daughter and me out for dinner

Anyways, I got off work around 5pm and decided I should eat some gas station pizza on the way home. It went ok. I then decided that was a very fat person thing to do, so i went for a run and of course got gas station pizza gas about 4 miles in. I tried to save every fart for a turn in the sidewalk so I could "skid" around the corners like in Mario Kart.

might be the funniest thing you've ever posted.
