Surprising absolutely nobody, the second incarnation of the C:DDA thread has been locked. How many pages did it take this time compared to the first one?

[heydude6]

Are you sure? Cause I just checked and it doesn't seem locked at all. I also don't see any drama either.

[Egan_BW]

That's not the DDA thread. I think it might be our fourth Cataclysm thread though.

[Eschar]

Precisely. The locked thread is buried a few pages back because naturally all the other threads kept ahead of it in updates

[MaxTheFox]

NG1999 is still gone. She was cool.

[Eschar]

I'm a little worried

Jeopardy's Alex Trebek apparently kicked the bucket a day ago. Cancer finally got him. His last episode airs sometime this December

Never a big fan or anything, but the show's been running steadily literally longer than I've been alive, so... yeah.

I tested positive for covid - unsurprisingly - and have a further two weeks off work (really a week and a half now) and maybe another test before I can return?

Anyway, instead of incessantly refreshing my emails so I know when I get my test results, I am incessantly refreshing my emails so I can get the paperwork I need to fill in so I can keep my job while not being paid because hey even though being in retail is important it’s not so important we actually want you to feel valuable or anything.

My chest also feels as though it contains a small hive of angry bees, so it’s probably a good thing I don’t have to go back yet.

Sorry to hear it, hector, but at least you know for sure now.

I watched Dead Man’s Shoes for the first time in about 15 years.

It is a rather brutal film about a former soldier coming to take revenge on the people who mistreated his younger brother who has a learning disability.

Not entirely sure why I watched it ‘cause I knew it would be hard going. It’s a good film, though.

this doesn’t sound upsetting, did you mean to post in a different thread? Or is there something I missed?

[Frumple]

Probably the rather brutal revenge part? Maybe? If it'd help any, you might check imdb's content advisory page for the movie in question. Just going by what's mentioned there, the general atmosphere of the movie involves a lot of violence and very troubled people doing fairly messed up stuff. Hard going, as hec puts it.

e: Though, uh, ware spoilers if you scroll too far down that page, 'cause there's some big ones.

[Naturegirl1999]

I was a bit confused though, since hector13 mentioned it was a good film, implying he wasn’t upset by it, at least to me

[Arx]

A good film can be upsetting. If stirring strong emotions is the goal of the movie, then it's a good film even if it makes you sad.
