  1. Think of that scene often in the summer. Salma hayek looks like she hasn't aged a day...
  2. Couple days late but wanted to post anyway, cause fuck 2020. From the guardian RIP to THE Great Armando Manzanero: "Manzanero’s romantic crooner songs, sometimes translated into English, were performed by artists including Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley and Perry Como, and he was awarded a lifetime achievement Grammy in 2014. It’s Impossible, performed by Como, crossed over into the US charts in 1970." couple notable songs, from Bronco: The original but y'all probably heard the Andrea Bocelli one: RIP and fuck 2020, may y'all all have a great 2021 and beyond.
  3. Actually just realized In wrong thread, disregard. Or mods if you want to move to the vaccine thread, my bad.
  4. They were told they have to go back to that place and get the booster there and there only, their spot/syringe/shot is reserved. They’re olds with comorbidities too so I don’t view it as skipping the line so much as hustling to an open spot (isn’t Texas prioritizing olds over emergency personnel?). Now if they were middle aged or young and non-essential personnel I’d view that as more of a skipping the line thing.
  5. my folks are on a list (both over 75). one of their married couple friends in the optimist club have a daughter in san antonio; somehow someone didn't show up for their vaccine this last weekend, so the daughter called up the parents b/c otherwise the doses were going to have to be thrown out or something. They hustled down to take the spot expecting to wait in line and spend the night with said daughter but where back in austin and vaccinated that same evening. not sure if some vaccinations are going to waste b/c people don't show up or what, but there are seemingly "legal" ways to skip to the head of the line for older folk or those already cleared to get the vaccine. just got to hustle and be available at a moment's notice.
  6. Armando Manzanero dead today too, reportedly due to heart attack from CoVID complications (no cr)
  7. Have at it! Plenty of good Asian male leads out there that could do the pascal character well. But to make that kid pascal’s son, is lazy/dumbtarded as fuck as a director/casting decision. Serves nothing other than ripping the viewer out of the scene time and time again (at least according to all the Mexicans/Latinos I know)
  8. He had already used it to enhance his dad’s “greatness”. More of a question is how did pascal’s sudden generosity finally control the monkey paw and allow him to grant cheetah her second wish with no cost? can’t believe that anyone hasn’t mentioned that pascal is Chilean with an off brand trump coif and his kid looked Asian as fuck (my guess was Filipino). Every latino (bro, parents, gf, multiple friends) I saw it with said the same thing and the fact they never explained how the kid was adopted (no way that is pascal’s character’s kid) kept knocking us out of the movie mindset. Terrible fucking flick with plot holes all around. Abysmal really. And I loved the first one.
  9. It’s Mexican Christmas tonight. Merry Christmas y’all.
  10. You know some hardcore babies!
  11. RIP
  12. Watching game while working remotely and building ikea furniture. Only saw the crowd and then bring carted off but sounds bad. Replay? Breakdown of the play? Did it look horrible? Shit, wish him the best but all these comments sound terrible.
  13. Same here. A little bit too OSU orange for my taste but meh, it went to a good cause. Going to wear it proudly around austin when I drive down in two weeks.
  14. Don’t know about the other reasons but every place in nyc has special rules for NYE and other dates like valentines (which come to think of it are the only two big “ones”). That doesn’t stop them from being a restaurant just bc of those holidays, which this year are going to be even more grandiose for people willing to risk it and owners hurting for cash. Now if the $10k res is for every night that’d be completely different but just for NYE? Nah, can’t see how that makes it less of a restaurant.
  15. Not that is a meaningful or anything but while backpacking in Berlin in 2006, they suggested we not do the Australian cheer hash tagged above (there had been a couple fun run ins with Australians and while drunk anything was fun to say/yell) because it sounded like a nazi slogan. Or perhaps communist but pretty sure they said nazi. Any truth to that?
  16. The pics of Maradona and queen are kind of a mind fuck. Just crazy imagining the same icons existing in the same time period and actually.. well snorting a shit ton of skiis. People ask who’d you like to have dinner with In history but I’d trade all that shit to go Peruvian marching with Maradona and queen. Talk about a fucking bad ass night!
  17. I respect that theoretically but why anecdotally in this instance? Not being pedantic but just thinking that whatever empirical reasons can be espoused for not prosecuting a former president, and many are valid and should outlast trump, I think can be countered anecdotally for trump. The exception to prove the rule as it were. If from here on out we recognize arguable parameters of contention between good faith presidential actors as reasonable, I think we have “won” as a country. It’s like back in hs when I went on college visits and hated the schools; yeah I might have hated them but it helped to determine what was right for me. So if from 2022 to end of USA times we say or rule “damn he/she seems to have a point but they sure as fuck acting trumpy so they’re probably full of shit so they’re automatically wrong”, then I think 250k+ Dead from incompetent government, torture against children who are guilty for only looking brown like me, and strenuous ass testing of our republican ideals were (are? Sorry I’m drunk) well worth it.
  18. Give him a “tribute Ivanka by the numbers pic” each time he requests one and I’d bet good money he’d never ask for a real briefing.
  19. Two years ago I would have said the same about aunt Becky and Epstein if you described him as an anonymous “rich connected white playboy”. Brave new world bruh, but at least one of the diaper don clan will be convicted. To be fair my nascent miss Cleo vibes say it’ll either be just barely with a ton of Hard Copy OJ white van twists and turns that make Shyamalan blush, or an avalanche that ends up with multiple Trump turds getting deservedly screwed. So You may very well (and probably) end up correct but I don’t think it’d take much to see a plethora of karmic jury trials resulting in these pathetic shit stains paying very shameful and painful restitution to the public for a very long time.
  20. Rip
  21. Gambling don’t count, right? Cause I’ve “bought” my share of “sure fire gonna win” that were just dumb dumb dumb. not online but during 2003-2006 I more than once got wasted while out in the city, stumbled black out drunk by a porn shop on the way home, and woke up with xxx dvds.
  22. To be fair that’s a lot of Mexican families too
  23. If there is a righteous god, then trump the fat fuck dumbtArded loser should be miserable today. Fuck him and his equally pathetic family; hopefully they are shunning him. But also Fuck them all. Happy thanksgiving surly! Stay safe!
  24. Think there have been a few cases/stories buried in the other threads. Just saying.
  25. Well came here to ask about the iPhone 12 and now thinking about upgrading the laptop. Fuck me. anyway, my 11pro max came with a bad ass charger, the 12 pro max just a cord. Did I get stiffed? Any reason why the new phones don’t have a bad ass charger?
