What did the optimist say to the pessimist?

I can't get into NCIS:LA.

Same here! The original is the best and the others are substandard copies...

I can't put my finger on how they did it, but every spin-off series of Star Trek was successful and became something unique in its own right.

NCIS spin-offs seemed to be so closely modeled to the original as to make you always compare and see the flaws in the copy....

In this video Donnie talks about the issues of buying something from a small time small scale supplier...
His YouTube channel AvE as 1.4 million followers!

This particular YouTube video has had nearly 4,000 views within an hour!

*NEVER* buy new gear | Bamboozled Again.​

I love the way he talks, his cadence, and the terms he uses... He refers to a computer as a confuser, and his sign-off line is "keep your dick in a vise"

Looks like he's made a shilling on this gen set!

Dave's Garage - excellent insight in to American problems, and problem solving!

I love Dave's amusing style and dry sense of humour! I reckon he's a British origin!

See the skill, the work that went into A Fist full of Dollars theme tune:-

https://twitter.com/x/status/1862365531086414040

A very eclectic collection of musicians with non-standard orchestral instruments and a chorus that handles unusual scoring.

But then, Ennio Morricone was notorious for music that fell a little bit "out of the box." Over the years he has won quite a few awards, not only the USA Academy but several overseas organizations.

And I didn't catch this immediately but that is actually the theme from "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly." The theme from "A Fistful of Dollars" has similar instrumentation & style but is a different melody.

I was surprised to see that the excellent whistling was done by a woman! I automatically assumed it would be a man! Does that make me a racist?

Not a racist, but a misogynist.

Question, why is it so common for people to say someone or something is misogynist, but so rare that you would ever hear the same accusation of being misandrist? In fact most people have never even heard that word in my experience, as I test it out some times. We all know there are plenty of man-hating women out there who will unload a torrent of ranting about how awful men are if given a chance, why are we so classy as men and we don't go around bitterly pointing it out? (well except me here - LOL!) I think there is a lot of misandry out there, especially I've seen it in female judges. If a woman slaps a man, "well you forgot your anniversary, so you deserve it". If a man slaps a woman, it's a year in jail and a felony conviction.

Although technically correct, my surprise was akin to the surprise I would have if I saw a woman stood at a urinal having a pee ....
