new york losing something that made it so captivating. this week it is moe's meat market. shed a tear for moe's. which isn't even a meat market! i miss the meat market!
things change. cities change. it's not 1922. rich people really want to live there. maybe it's time to start scaring rich people again, new york, ever think of that?

Star Wars. I was drowsing on the couch half-watching the Vikings-Bears game last night, saw the first seconds of new trailer, and went back to sleep before it even registered.

there's a great new york tradition of reading that a classic establishment, one that you've never visited and maybe weren't even aware of, is going to be closing, and subsequently rushing to patronize it and mourn the loss.

In that vein, something I don't care about is Katz's Deli--from what I hear they yell at you, and you can't even put cheese on your sandwich? Nah I'm good.
― Conic section rebellion 44 (in orbit), Tuesday, 10 October 2017 20:37 (eight years ago)
yelling + no cheese = good

There's an also-ran semi-famous Jewish deli in my neighborhood called Ben's Best, and I'm perfectly happy to just go there for my occasional pastrami, even if I'll never know that Katz's is like 20% better.

however wanting to put cheese on a katz's sandwich = goyish as fuck, sry

star wars. haven't seen rogue one, haven't seen whatever A New Hope II was called. I loved the original trilogy as a child, was extremely disappointed by prequels as a teen, CGAF about new Star Wars films in 2017

i haven't enjoyed a blockbuster movie since ... inception maybe?
― -_- (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 11 October 2017 21:48 (eight years ago)
and inception was just ok
i basically don't care about anything new i suppose. the only tv i watch currently is seinfeld and larry sanders.

When I was kid a bloke who was dating my half-sister and would later become a violent domestic abuser, "treated" us to a cinema showing in Bradford that played all three of the first trilogy in one bastard sitting. I wish I could say I don't care, but I actively hate that fucking shite.

Yes, Spain could be on the verge of breaking up and/or civil war and this shit about some ugly fat movie producer/rapist is the leading story.

Not that I don't care about, I just don't think it should be the leading news story in the UK.

for the 2nd day now, it is like having 2 fucking Trumps. There is a lot of heavy domestic stuff going down right now: Universal Credit rollout, Brexit Bill deadlock, Dover sole 'jumps' down angler's throat.

Mediocre writing/plotting with good atmosphere, some very good acting and a mesmerizing lead. Got tired of it after 4 episodes.

It seems to be rekindling interest in Vangelis-esque synth sounds, so there's that.

I'm way too old and tired to try to be edgy, it's just not that good a show.
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Friday, 27 October 2017 15:14 (eight years ago)
New music. Not a judgment but, after years of intensely caring about and trying to keep up with The Scene, the contrast of the last several years where I have basically no wherewithal to seek out contemporary sounds has been glaring. But these Dockers sure are comfortable, and my lawn looks fantastic.
― Winky Carrothers (Old Lunch), Friday, 27 October 2017 15:22 (eight years ago)
Definitely have experienced a "nothing new under the sun" effect with music in the last few years. Still get surprised by something once in a while.
― IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Friday, 27 October 2017 15:23 (eight years ago)
Yeah, I've definitely heard good new stuff but only incidentally and through no effort on my part. My musical effort is all concentrated on the mounds of good stuff from the past I still have yet to explore.

Granted, but I started it for things like what everyone else is having at the restaurant, not big events in the media and current events

It became that immediately xp DL your OP was the restaurant thing but your second post was the jimmy saville scandal so I'm afraid the 600,000 posts from the dimension where the only tweets are "oh is sportsball on?" tweets - the worst dimension - those are on you, my friend
