Give me Charles or Sadie from RDR2. I’d even be down with Micah or Dutch game - they did their thing with the characters in that one.

Reply to comment by ingloriousbaxter3 in 'The Boys' Spinoff 'Gen V' Will Be a Mystery With "Lots of Blood" by impeccabletim
At first blush it didn’t to me either, but when I saw that (and idk how true this really is) it was the idea of being a play on X Men - I got more into it. I feel like the writers probably know the pitfalls to avoid, they know we don’t just want to watch horny teens - so I’m excited for it.

Idk The Boys was pretty good overall I feel, just because they’re making a spin-off doesn’t have to mean it’ll be bad.
Though I will say, I am so tired of things being based in college - but that might be just me.

Sure, if Finland, Sweden, and Greenland wanted that - then why would it be a problem? I doubt most people would abide by it, but why would anyone care what they call themselves?

I mean it’s their country and their government; I don’t think it matters either way how we spell it. If they want to spell it differently then why should we care?

Didn’t Turkey declare that was the proper way to spell it now? Just because I can’t be bothered to do it doesn’t mean we can’t respect them spelling their nation how they want.

Reply to Drink Masters on Netflix rides the line between "mildly interesting" and "this is the most pretentious shit ever" by jcwitte
I usually like Netflix shows like this; any kind of skill competition type show. I started it but turned in before the judging or anything. I remember that part - honestly, this kinda show brings those types out no matter if it’s glass blowing, cake baking, or metal working. You learn to get over it lol

Reply to ELI5: why do grocery stores in the US keep such a large inventory? Aside from being prepared for episodic panic buying like toilet paper or bottled water, is there an economic reason to do this? How much of the food ends up going bad? by DrEverythingBAlright
It depends. I know at my store they look at numbers from the previous year to predict how much we need that day; a lot of food gets thrown out but if a manager is keeping things tight there’s not as much food waste as you’d think, probably.
Like, not saying there isn’t a lot of waste; but at when it comes to fresh meat and seafood it really depends on the manager in charge and the predictions from the previous year. Like the meat all comes in vacuum sealed or ordered in expectation of the sale week; most seafood comes in frozen and the fresh stuff is ordered specifically for the sales week - there’s also the stuff corporate just wants in the case because it looks good even if it doesn’t sell like live shellfish or lamb. I’m sure it matters store by store, but I know my store for example doesnt move much seafood. So that’s our biggest waste; I think most people (I don’t live near the coast or a big river/lake) aren’t as comfortable dealing with seafood as they are red meat.
