Not every gun is always loaded, but you should always treat a gun as if it's loaded.

You can think whatever you want about my post, unfair/arrogant idc, I'm just sharing a very common view from among the women I know and the discussions I've read. Not every one out there in the dating world is a creep, but I'd rather be careful since I only had a limited time to go out.

It's not that every single person falls in to those two camps, but social media is super duper common, so why would I risk wasting my time on someone I can't vet?

I went to CA for the holidays and was utterly dismayed by how unwalkable it was. It's honestly tragic, I really took for granted being able to walk a few blocks for groceries.

Why'd they stopped making tv shows as good as x-files? in c/[email protected]

I mean, I am not a huge fan of the show and didn't finish it. But the first season was stellar. But that aside, reading your other comments it seems like you don't like a lot of modern shows. Which is fine, but personally I find older stuff I watched when I was a girl just sorta meaningless. X files had so many skipable episodes without serving the overarching plot. I'm honestly kinda baffled that you would prefer monster of the week instead of expanse and breaking bad, but you are allowed to think as you please. Just seems at odd with two of the most higely praised shows of recent history.

And I don't super appreciate being called bro... >_>

That's.... not what the poster was saying. Prestige TV extends much farther than the mafia genre, sopranos was just the turning point when higher budget dramatic things were more commonly greenlit.

The Wire, Breaking Bad, Watchmen, The Expanse Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Mad Men etc all absolutely blow X files out of the water. And while I do love X files, the monster of the week format is not even in the same ballpark as those long form character dramas.

I think you might be letting nostalgia blind you to how great television has become.

I mostly agree about the Muppets, I don't really see the appeal and have never found any of their media all thay interesting.

HOWEVER

The Christmas Carol is the one exception, I don't like it because it's Muppets, but it's beautiful music and honestly heartwarming storytelling.

I thought it would be a clickbait title... But... No.

That is seriously their plan. What an absolute failure of health and safety.

5 responses in 3 minutes? Yeah, no. I'm not engaging with whatever tf this is. Using debate terminology does not mean you have a logical argument and I'm not about to go through economic semantics while you play ignorant. Think as you please and I encourage you to tell/show as many people as you can about this interaction.
