Based on Reid and Strat’s recommendations, I’ll be giving The Outsider a look.

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Lol. Good man, wease. Interested to hear you update this thread with your thoughts.

The Wife & I really love Sex Education on Netflix, and Season 2 has been great thus far. Looking forward to another episode tonight.

[Simple Torture]

I had no idea this docuseries was in the pipeline, but I am now so excited. I've been fascinated by this story for years:

This premieres Monday night, don't forget!

Mr. Robot season 1. I know we have a thread dedicated to this show, but I'm avoiding it because I don't want to be spoiled...

Holy cow, this show is awesome. Mahlek is amazing. The writing is way better than anything on non-premium cable TV, which is surprising because I think it's a USA show?

Ep 6, in which

Spoiler: show

Shayla gets killed

was a doozy. I thought, "How are they gonna top that?"

Then the next episode blew it out of the water with much quieter moments of character development:

Spoiler: show

Angela' conversation with the E-Corp executive, in which she asks about the meeting that lead to her mom's death. Tyrrell's breakdown after killing the CTO's wife. Then Darlene's conversation with Trenton, where Trenton talks about her immigrant parents who will likely die in debt. And then finally when Elliot tells his therapist all the personal shit about her.

This show is awesome. I'm all in.

Just stick with it past 2. Season 2 is kind of a slow burn and a little different, but 3 and 4 make up for it.

McMillion$ is great so far

Oh yeah. I was a bit disappointed for parts of it, especially since it was so reenactment-heavy, and i thought it was moving so fast, but then they got to the video of that moron who was trying to convince them he won. His story was so, so bad, I almost felt bad for him. And then that guy on the beach steals the check. Just great.

I have a vague memory of one of the million-dollar prizes being given anonymously to a children's hospital, and I hope they address that at some point. I assume that was one of the perpetrators who felt bad about the enterprise, or trying to throw the fuzz off the scent.

The guy stealing the check was fantastic
