re: What is the correct pronunciation of Iberville
Posted by BitBuster on 6/30/26 at 10:26 am to DeafVallyBatnR
I've always heard the I pronounced like it is in"six". Emphasis on the first syllable. I-ber-ville
Not sure it makes sense because I prounce it Eye-ber-ville everywhere else. New EYE-beria. The EYE-berian penensuila.

The 2012 season broke Miles.
In 2013 there was the sexual harassment investigation.
He had LSU's, and his, wins vacated from 2012-2015 because of the Vadal Alexandar scandal with the booster and children's hospital.
He hung out in limbo for a year after he was fired from LSU and got hired by hapless Kansas in Nov of 2018. Who was then fired from Kansas in 2021 because of the 2013 LSU investigation.

re: How much faith do you have in customer reviews?
Posted by BitBuster on 6/30/26 at 9:26 am to NatalbanyTigerFan
Product and service reviews are the most helpful.
"This is cheap Chinese crap, but I could buy 100 of them instead of one OEM part that is just as likely to break."
"Bob was always late to the job site. The Estimate was $1000 less than the actual cost. My kindergardener could have built the fence better."
Rental reviews *can* be helpful.
"This unit is next to the elevator and ice machine. You can hear it run all night."
"There is a strip club next door."
Restaurant reviews can be helpful.
"They use generic ketchup, the fries are frozen, and the entree's are microwaved. I expect more from my bowling alley."
Book and Movie reviews are very subjective and unreliable, unless there's like 10,000 reviews and it's easier to see a consensus. Reading 1 star reviews of classics is pretty entertaining.

It's streaming tomorrow, June 30th on Amazon and Apple tv. Probably a $30 new release rental.
Love him. He’s a character actor at this point tho.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent was good.
The Machine was ok.
Anaconda was ok.
Ricky Stanickey was ok.

Finished S2. THought they did a faithful job of condensing the entirity of s2 into 7 1 hour episodes. What they cut out, they left in mentions for fan service. (e.g. Leaves on the Vine)
What they do great:
1. Condensing the story lines.
2. Special effects are top notch.
3. Understanding the emotional notes they need to hit.
4. Judee casting was amazing.
5. Long Feng casting was amazing.
6. Kyoshi Warrior Suki steals every scene she's in.
7. The voice acting sounds almost identical to the anime in many respects.
What they did good:
7. Toph was well done.
8. Saka and Kitara
9. Uncle Iroh
What needs polishing.
10. Aang's acting is distracting. This could be a Star Wars Phantom Menace young Anakin type situation.
11. Zuko's acting can be distracting at times.
???
12. Mei - Azula's knife throwing minion - in the anime she's razor thin. In the live action, they cast a larger actress. I'm having a hard time imagining Zuko's inevitable hook-up because he's scored with hotter peasants.
Netflix did a good job on this. I'm not sure how people who aren't fans of the anime take it, but I liked it. Can't wait to see S3.

re: Sirat - Best movie I have seen in a long time

Maybe the most strangest, depressing and boring combo of a movie ever.
The movie did a lot of things well, but writing wasn't one of them. Was this originally a book that the director took artistic liberties? i.e. was the screenplay adapted or original? Something was shoehorned.
The producers, actors, director, cinematography guys, etc, all did amazing work. The plot was just contrived to deliver the message that life isn't fair and does unexpected shite. In the effort to deliver that message there were too many loose ends. Ends that the writer contrived to build tension. Why was there war? The whole part about the missing daughter? These were just plot devices.
I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone but the filmiest of film nerds. This was like an A24 movie without the big twist at the end.

Did they finally fix the transmission? Every GMC I've owned got confused on how to shift at low speeds.
Matt Damon definitely watched Tom Cruise milk the Mission Impossible franchise for decades. No way he's going to let his cash cow slide. It's pretty much a guaranteed paycheck.
Managing a haywire cortisol biological response is a key piece to the anxiety/OCD puzzle.
Diet and lifestyle play a huge role, and those are the hardest to change.
Being overweight, having pre-diabetes, reactive hypoglycemia, and whatnot can really mess with your cortisol levels if you aren't accounting for your condition.
Like someone else said earlier in this thread, anxiety/ocd is a check engine light and can be a symptom of another underlying condition.
I know a guy who said his anxiety was cut in half by drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning, and not drinking his first cup of coffee until he got to work at 8. I googled it, and sure enough, coffee, caffeine trigger cortisol.

This is currently streaming on MGM+ in French.
I watched it with subtitles. It's a damn good adaptation. I thoroughly enjoyed.
I still haven't seen the PBS miniseries, I'll have to try that next.
