re: First teaser for Madden starring Nicolas Cage

Should have at least considered Frank Caliendo to play Madden. He at least sounds like him when he does his impersonations.

Then they don't deserve a good cut of steak, especially anything labeled "Prime" since it's a waste of money.
Get them a cut of select sirloin to accompany your prime rib eye and cook theirs to oblivion-----like they like it.

Her and the boxer Zab Judah shave their eyebrows. Makes for a very weird look-----------almost alien-like.
I saw a video on my home page that was a report on a violent crime via a news channel feed.
I had the sound off but CC on and I'm reading what the reporter is saying and words like blood, killed, murder were skewed to look like "bl**d, k&&led, mu##der came across the screen.
Are people that soft they can't read those words without getting triggered and needing to find their "safe space"?

A few of my favorites starred Burgess Merrideth. One where he plays a meek little man who's bullied by Don Rickles in a bar and through alien intervention gains incredible strength and then above average intelligence..
Another where he plays the Devil and becomes a typesetter for a newspaper that is in financial trouble when a big media corporation opens in the town.
And finally, he's again a meek man, a bank teller who loves to read but is married to a shrew of a wife who hates his love of books. Disaster strikes but he survives with time to read all he wants and then the plot twist happens.

Taking over a Winn-Dixie
I live in N.O. in Mid-City and there is a Rouses and right across the street on Carrollton Ave. there is a Winn-Dixie.
Hands down I prefer the Rouses store and find them to be more consistent with their pricing with W-D being a bit higher overall on much of their merchandise.
I shop more at Costco, then Rouses and probably spend no more than $50 a month in W-D

Yeah, I’m not sure why they made him SUCH a selfish a-hole. It detracts
To show how a person can become so obsessed with something that nothing else in their life matters. And for those who hate what he became only goes to show how his portrayal of the character affected you, the viewer too.
That's acting.

Man I would’ve watched so many movies.
Oh, I did. During the summer months I would go to theaters at least 3-4 times a month to catch a movie. Between the big 4 theaters downtown, there was always something to go see and the neighborhood theaters like the NOLA on St. Claude near Nichols High School, the Arabi on St. Claude and Angela and the Napoleon and Prytania uptown, it was easy to catch different movies.

When I was a kid and teenager popcorn and a Coke was part of the movie experience,was pretty cheap back then.
I'm going back to the mid 60's here when I was a teen and had a job paying $1.25 an hour. One of my favorite things to do was to take the bus downtown and hit the Big 4 theaters------Saenger, Lowes State, Joy and Orpheum.
Tickets were $1.25 or $1.50 and for $2 more I could get popcorn, a candy bar and soda to snack on watching the movie. Another big draw for me was the A/C in the summer months since the house we lived in only had a whole house fan, so hitting a movie and watching it 2 times got me out of the heat for 3-4 hours at a time.
Smaller, neighborhood theaters were even cheaper with tickets usually around $.50 to get in on Friday nights when Annette Funicello and Frankie Avalon were hitting the beaches.

Yep, and combine that with the price of tickets now and it's $75+ for 2 people to go see a movie at most major cinemas.
I haven't been in years and don't think I'll be watching any new releases anytime soon at those prices.

re: Sister’s jackass boyfriend just told my kids Santa isn’t real
Posted by gumbo2176 on 12/25/25 at 7:33 am to TheTigress
Your sister chose poorly. Seems her boyfriend has no sense of situational awareness to be around little kids at Christmas and make a statement like that.
Yes, he's right, but let the kids have their fantasy for as long as they believe in the jolly fat man who brings them presents once a year.
That douchebag obviously has no filter, and if acting smug about it afterwards, just let your husband drag his stupid arse out to a Sonic's parking lot and check knuckles.
Oh, and I hope your sister realizes what a POS she chose for the evening.

LOL at the douche that downvoted it. Bet you can’t cook worth a frick.
That first photo shows me you don't much know how to make a roux if you have your pot looking like the inside of a white porcelain toilet after a bad bunch of Taco Bell.
Never in my life of cooking, and it's a long life so far, have I had ANY pot look like that from making a roux. Did you stir it with an outboard motor????
Oh, and Merry Christmas.................. :cheers:
If cooking a Sunday Brunch or hosting a party I tend to want a Bloody Mary with a spear of pickled okra, green bean and a couple olives.
Most other times if I feel like a cocktail, it's either rum & coke with a twist or vodka and cranberry over ice.
When cooking seafood, it's almost always going to be cold bottles of beer.

re: What commercials are on your last nerve???
Posted by gumbo2176 on 12/23/25 at 7:01 pm to Lowdermilk
For me, it's the Medicare commercial where the wife walks in on the husband reading his paper and shrieks----"Al, did you call about the medicare plans B & C" and then goes on to explain how they are needed to supplement the basic Medicare plan.
My first thought is "Bitch, if you know so much about it, do it yourself and leave me alone to read my paper since you obviously know more about it than me".

re: The stark difference in between women and men in explaining simple things
Posted by gumbo2176 on 12/23/25 at 10:54 am to Mike da Tigah
Because most women like to make a short story long. Their minds roam as their mouth speaks. They love to expound on details--------and it doesn't matter how trivial that detail is, they will tell you all about it.
Ask a man for directions to a nearby business and you will get:
Go to the corner, take a right, go 6 blocks and take a left and it's on the right hand side in the middle of the block.
Ask a woman the same question and you will get.
Go to the corner and be sure to look for cars coming since they love to speed around here. Take a right and be careful since there's kids that ride their bikes in the street and there's lots of cats running wild. Go 5 blocks-----NO six blocks and take a left. There's a little boutique store on the corner that I love to browse in since they have some of the cutest things at good prices. The place you want is in the middle of the block, but I'm not sure what side it's on.
