God damn, Obi Wan is a disappointing show. Only up to episode 4 but It's not that good. It all looks like it's been shot in a small blue screen room and I want Leia to die, she's so bloody annoying. We were reintroduced to Darth Vader in the last one I watched and he was bested by a 2ft high fire he couldn't cross.
There was one scene on some roofs where he was chasing Leia and it seemed to go on for 45mins and he must have shouted Leia 268 times. Saying that I'll probably carry on watching it LOL.
- "I want Leia to die" aghahahha exactly :D it's like a recycled series on the Syfy channel.sted
- It won't get betterdmay
- I disagree! I felt obi wan was the better new series of them all. Hang in there.monospaced
- Oh look, another impossible scenario escaped by some sort of comedy error. For 8 hoursPhanLo
- Little bit of music playing in the background has grown men clutching unopened Kenner toys as they climaxPhanLo
- The Leia garden chase was one of the most embarrassing scenes ever. I feel bad for the actors who had to go through with it.Continuity
- I liked a small part of the last episode, the rest of the series did look like it had a lot of tech but zero scale.robthelad
- It's amazing compared to the Boba Fet/Mandalorian shows, imho. Horribly written, barely watchable for a 10yo. I couldn't get through BF at all.formed
- it felt like the whole series revolved around the wannabe inquisitor than obi...ArchitectofFate
- That fucking laser gateBluejam
- Didn't see BoBF, but The Mandalorian was loads more entertaining than Obi Wan.Continuity
- beneath mediocre..... as in boring³neverscared
- pretty much everything since Return of the Jedi wrapped has been poopPonyBoy
- The last episode makes suffering through the other 5 worth it.stoplying
- @Pony RotJ was fermented ass. The only thing really worth watching since ESB was Rogue One.Continuity
- Didn't care for the main lady going after Obi, just yelling and over acting, vs showing true angst and hate. last couple ep's get decent.. but with you.hydro74
- hot take: All Star Wars everything is overrated, and nowhere near as good as you think it's going to be.section_014
- every time star wars sucks it stings, as there's so much potential to do amazing shit in that universe, and so many talented filmmakers out thereinteliboy
- I give it a meh. Not horrible tho.pango
- Rogue One is amazing and Han Solo was a good film.Hayzilla
- Continuity... Rogue One's that good, huh? I admit I was overworked, a bit blazed and DID pass out trying to watch that flick... I will try it again. <3PonyBoy
- @Pony Well, don't expect cinematic gold. It's still a SW film, after all. But, in that context, I found it very entertaining.Continuity
- Yep, Rogue one is easily the best SW output since ESB by miles.fadein11
- it wasn't great.. but none of the tv shows really have been.. just too much of "oh lets take this tiny throw away detail of the original movie and base a wholeautoflavour

Used car decision:
Honda Jazz vs VW up!(skoda or seat variants too) vs i10 Hyundai
2011 year-is, 60k miles on meter.
Which you'd go for?
- I like the UP!robthelad
- up!oey_oey
- though the jazz is more in the polo category.oey_oey
- forgot to say, will be doing a motorway trip of 5 hours, every couple months.shapesalad
- I have a 2nd GEN Fit (US branding of the Jazz). It's a little beast. Several cross-country trips and moderate offroading.garbage
- Haven't really driven it in a couple years, to the point where it's growing moss. Probably time for some wrenching and a powerbrush.garbage
- I like the jazz (FIT). We looked at one but got a Toyota Corolla hatchback instead. The Toyota has been a great vehicle.monNom
- Those are all gonna feel like a go-kart on the highway. I had a Fit, and while I thought it was a great car, I would not want to 5 hour road-trip it.section_014
- jazz, better on long distance, will fit in with your new retiree neighbourshans_glib

It's been a while since I've shared anything here. Lots has changed, my companion pup passed last December, that was a hard one. Quit my job, mostly because it was sucking the life out of me, so I jumped, still haven't landed lol. Have been living with a complex meniscus tear for 5 months. Finally had surgery this week. It's been weird. Focusing on healing inside and out, trying to keep it together.

Also, maybe seek out some employment opportunities via QBN? it's a solid network.Krassy - I'm available to chat or just listen for anyone needing it, y'all know how to get hold of me. Or should we start a new thread maybe?sea_sea

As someone suffering from social anxiety, my days can be a constant struggle with feeling watched and judged.
And then someone random takes 7 seconds of their time to make a kind and cheerful remark to me. And the rest of the day is significantly better.
Be kind, rewind.
- Change your internal voice. React only to what is said to you each day and not what you ‘think’ people are ‘thinking’.shapesalad
- And if people say something negative, remember it’s because they are feeling insecure and are trying to push themselves up by pushing you down.shapesalad

- SA is no joke. Mine goes off when my perfectly laid plans go astray. Just this afternoon I was dropping one of the dogs off at the vet. Thought it was..garbage

Once you have a family, Work is the dumbest thing to care about.Can’t believe I used to care about graphic design
- I don’t even have kids and can’t believe i used to care about designscarabin

- caring about grand harmonies and relationship of components edging into beauty aka design in general is not a dumb thing to care about...neverscared
- I’ll admit it’s not the dumbest thing to care about. Plenty dumber. It’s ok to like graphic design********
- I guess what I’m saying is that I used to think graphic design was important. Now I realize it is unimportant.********
- Maybe it was having kids or maybe it was just growing up and getting a little wiser that made me notice********
- If it sustains you and enables you to have more time with your family, maybe it’s important but in a different way.mort_
- Well yeah so you should do whatever job makes the most money in the least amount of time without taxing your body or health********
- Graphic design ain’t the worst, but you can make a lot more money faster than you can in graphic design********
- Graphic design is important - think about road signs, airport signage, branding etc.shapesalad
- You could be working in a worse job, chemical factory doing night shifts for example, with management trying to squeeze you.shapesalad
- Obviously there are worse jobs********
- Trying to squeeze you. I see what you did there Ssaladmisterhow
- If you’re reading this thinking “graphic design is important” you’re probably a Jr. Nothing wrong with that. You’ll get there, stick with it********

Do you believe in destiny?
That everything happens for a reason?
- Nodrgs
- Everything happens for a reason, sure.
If you burn your hand on the element of your stove, the reason is you were stupid enough to put your hand on it.Continuity - khm, may i ask how you know that the touching the stove burns your hand?sted
- No. Reason would imply some sort of plan, and I see no compelling evidence for such a thing.monospaced
- @NBQ00: your parents fucked be happy about that, your mother decided to let you see the world for which you should be grateful, etc. actions have consequencessted
- @sted, I should have added 'lit element'Continuity
- God has a plan.utopian
- the consideration of those consequences gives you reason to act and shapes your destiny.sted
- @Continuity idk what that is? i just wanted to say that the stove example describes a learned involuntary response to a stimulus.sted
- when that happens for the first time you aren't smart or stupid just have no idea about the consequences.sted
- I figure a nomally grown man — despite all evidence pointing to being a hormonal teenager — would know better than to do something like that ...Continuity
- ... and that that thing happened for a very demonstrable, traceable reason, and not because some invisible hand will it to happen.Continuity
- It was just an example anyway ;)Continuity
- Yes. The reason being the thing itself.
Taking the stove example:
Because of a reason: your stupidity.
For a reason: you being burnt.palimpsest - LOL.. I misread that and I thought it said DENSITY.. I was like, yeah, and Mass alsoautoflavour
