right but like, they were only broken up into episodes for streaming in the first place, they can make their ad breaks as long as they want

so fucking lame

I get that for broadcast, but for streaming it doesn’t make any sense, it’s not like ad breaks on streaming used to be the same length as on cable. on top of that, I wasn’t getting ads when watching this on Hulu

watching Wild Green Yonder with a friend, me watching the movie on my Plex, them watching the version broken into episodes on Hulu.

i pulled Hulu up to make sure i stayed synced, and the Hulu version quickly pulled ahead of mine.

well, just noticed the Family Guy Star Wars episode 6 episode is 44 minutes on Hulu and 53 minutes on my Plex.

I also want to hear about the snitching.

I’d heard most famously Seinfeld was sped up by 7% in syndication to sell more advertising space. I do it to my own videos sometimes just to shorten them for today’s attention span

dude. I was at a Christian rehab center several years ago. this one kid came as a resident, his parents having been missionaries in Western Africa.

he kept having “seizures”, except he was completely conscious during them, he would just have fits where he would collapse to the ground and have uncontrollable muscle spasms. I’m pretty sure it was a form of panic attack, but some Christian hypnotherapist had hypnotized him, and “uncovered” a “suppressed memory” of some random African dragging him into the woods and putting a curse on him at knifepoint. when he was having a fit, one staff member would hold his head in a pillow to keep him from hurting himself, and somebody else would read the bible over him.

somehow, this curse was strong enough to overpower the word of god, but not a handful of xanax.

because few people in this society spend money on something that makes other people’s lives easier.

the reason you were able to download it is because other people were seeding it. that’s why seeding is helpful

this is the second word that Gary Larson has added to the English language.

gee I wonder how long it will be before I can download the custom patches to get around this

yep. I used to work on a paving crew, you have to wear long pants & sleeves no matter how hot the weather because the mix is coming out of the truck at 300°F and you don’t want any molten flecks getting on your skin. 75% of the crew has partially melted boot soles, but one of their wives just showed up with a box of joe in an insulated hot bag

it’s never too hot for hot coffee

this is interesting and whatnot, but during WW2, US research indicated that jellied gasoline (napalm) was a far more effective incendiary than thermite when it comes to burning wood.

genuine question, what should we do about it?

various torrent sites.

you skipped over the part where PETA was infiltrated by a spy ring paid for by Barnum & Bailey and run by the former third highest ranking member of the CIA (who had been convicted of lying to Congress), using their operatives to, among other things, do and encourage behaviors that make the organization look extreme. this allowed it to be taken over by unstable fanatics and successfully destroyed its reputation

explain exactly what you mean.

*guys I’m not being facetious I don’t understand

it’s not even on Spotify

(I haven’t been following for updates I just remember the headlines when she pulled it)
