Vienna sausage with some hot sauce, my wife said it was gross but I was loving every bite. PS I showed my wife that gazpacho recipe and she really wants to make it

The TV and Streaming Thread: Pilot Week
It's not canon, thankfully. It was just the game trying to make sense of the movie.

The TV and Streaming Thread: Pilot Week
Just watched the Orville new season and I really enjoyed it. It took it's time without feeling indulgent and wasn't crammed with side plots. Was also really surprised that there was no recap since it's been so long.

I think there were some fan projects to upscale the whole show (and maybe Voyager too) but I don't know if that ever went anywhere and I'm not sure it can go anywhere since they'd be unable to distribute it. Would Paramount be willing to sell fan made content? Would they prefer your sub instead? I know absolutely nothing about this stuff. a link to the past for reference

I used to have DS9 on DVD but that's long been lost. I'll see if I can buy the series somewhere. I've been considering dropping Netflix for a while since they keep raising prices and barely put out anything that interests me while cancelling or losing the rights to the stuff that does. I can always sub for a month if that ever changes.

DS9 is leaving Netflix so I guess I can cancel Netflix now

Not hating it is fine. Liking it, however, is unforgiveable. 😛 I'm mostly kidding as I like some terrible, horrible, no good, very bad shows as well... though I did stop talking to my dad for about 6 months when he said he liked Picard. I'm still trying to get over it.

What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
Somewhat inspired by the thread title, who would play you in a movie about your life? Spent half the night discussing this with my wife because while it doesn't seem that complicated, and it's not, she kept throwing out fictional people she wanted to play her. Her picks were Jadzia Dax (not Terry Farrell) and Angelina Jolie though they look nothing like her and are just her girl crushes. My pick was Powers Boothe but he's dead and I'm not sure how comfortable he would be with the nudity required for the role.

More Hardwood + Round Holes = Lots of Scoring in Basketball 2K19
No matter who wins, we lose? I'm mostly indifferent to these finals. I'm hoping for a good series though I'm leaning slightly towards Boston because I'm a tower in Pisa I don't think they have anyone left from their last championship run like a decade and a half ago... and it'll put them over the Lakers. BUT! At the same time, I won't be upset if Kerr gets another ring.

I've heard similar things as well but not sure if it was written in the show, because I haven't watched it, or just fans trying to make it make sense.

The New Cinema and Movie Thread
I just try to avoid Tom Cruise movies Honestly, I try to avoid all movies with scientologists as leads. I'm normally pretty good at separating the art from the artist but **** scientology.

We draft well and usually have decent coaching but are often plagued by injuries and ownership that doesn't often pay to retain talent. Speaking of which, I hear our president is heading off to Minnesota.

Nope, this is generally accurate. The only thing is that the garbage company with the home market rights is the team's ownership group.

Hit Hard, Run Fast, Turn Left. The 2022 Baseball Thread
How does that work? Walk at least one batter who scores on what I'm assuming is likely an error or a deep fly out? I guess I could look it up 😛

My LG stove looks similar to what you have above and I can turn off the sounds and flashing lights (for preheating) in settings. My washer and dryer make annoying sounds but I leave them on so I don't forget about the clothes in them because I'm easily distracted.

The All Things Political Topic - Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.
I read it as prison isn't doing much as a deterrent to crime and/or the prison population doesn't reflect crime rates. IIRC our prison population boom was tied to the war on drugs and sentencing law/policy changes
