Fun story. When the titanic came out, the girl I was crushing on asked me if I wanted to go see it with her and her other friends.
Yeah. So we’re in line to get in and I made a sarcastic comment, something about, “but we know how it ends… the ship sinks.”
Apparently. She didn’t know that. Oops.
In any case the gaggle of old women in the row behind us were more entertaining. It may have been like their fifth time watching it. Specifically so they could see DiCaprio’s naked ass. The rest of the time they spent heckling it MST3K- style.Even if it’s a re-run, it’s a dick move to give away the ending to any movie while in line to see it.
It’s a very well known historical story though.
Thank you. Excellent observation It is, in fact, the very fact that makes the comment you are responding to funny.
It is, in fact, the very fact that…
Lmao
Watching a movie about WWII “I wonder who won??”
I wonder what hobbies this Julius Caesar guy gets into when he retires?
He gets really good at playing dead, even has fake knife wounds
Omg don’t spoil I haven’t watched that movie yet. I didn’t even know their was a first one.
I hear that if they ever do a 3rd movie it is going to burst on the scene and really explode from there.
The Americans, obviously.
…and this is why i loved inglourius basterds…
That would be like, being in line for a film about Helen Keller and mentioning she is blind and deaf. Like. Yeah. She is. You should know that, regardless of the film.
Who is Helen Keller?
She is one of the biggest community volunteers to the Lemmy code repo.
and they already made a film about her? that was fast…
I thought she was a mod on Twitter. They never see anything wrong with any posts I report.
Omg lmao
That’s like watching a World War 2 movie and “spoiling” the fact that Germany lost.
If you don’t know the story of the Titanic idk what to tell you.
Truth be told, I started watching Once Upon a Time In Hollywood having zero context of what the hell the story is meant to actually be about until half way when someone told me, and it vastly improved the movie.
Like, the woman just looked like a useless character you know. And would keep looking so.
Can you help a friend out?
I know it’s just a meme, but god damn I hate this format. Some men cry while watching the titanic, some (many) women use *nix.
agree wholeheartedly
A small alteration would be to swap one of the female heads up top with a male, and go “Man, Chad guy never cries about anything. Is he even human?” You can even swap out Chad with chadette, depending on context.
Just a guess.
In the same vein, comments like “I’m a big bearded man but I cried…”. As if they need to reaffirm their masculinity when they speak about their feelings in case we suddenly think they turned into a unicorn or something.
man I WISH I spontaneously turned into a unicorn every time I shed a tear
At home too?
They just move to a server farm upstate!
Is that the one my elderly colleague started working at? Still a bit pissed he never said goodbye.
A State Farm if you will
Is the server named Boxer?
Honestly by the time I decide to retire an old machine, it’s because I’ve developed so much animosity towards it that I’m much more likely to have an attitude of “good riddance” than “farewell old friend”.
The year Titanic came out, I finally decided to see what the fuss was about in it’s 18th week playing (a new record!) in our local theater. I took my seat, and there were a couple of teenage girls a few seats over from mine. They started sobbing during the opening credits. I’m fairly certain they’d seen the movie already. Probably more than once.
I once had a machine (that I got 2nd hand) run a busy mysql server with over 1,200 days of uptime. When it was retired we painted the chassis gold and put it on display in the lobby.
And the sysadmin said “well done, good and faithful servant.”
Depends. What’s the uptime on that server? Are we talking years? Thatd be worth to “pour one out for da homies”.
The Irony of the Unix wars is that Unix lost.
Linux didn’t have any of the untouchable legal issues that Unix had. Linux was built from the ground up without access to Unix source code, that was entirely why it was written.
And now we have Linux, the most used kernel on the face of this earth. Used in almost every server. All android devices. Chrome books. The Steam deck. It’s included on every copy of Windows.
Linux won the Unix wars. And it’s all the fault of the very creator of Unix. AT&T, in their greed, killed the creation they sought to profit from.
Double Ironic.
Holy shit, I watched that video a week ago. So sad :'(
