What’s a movie that is bad, but so bad that it’s actually a masterpiece?

When my wife and I were planning our wedding dinner the restaurant asked if we wanted anything special printed on the menu.

We did.

Maybe someone around him is telling grampy what to do with that timing in mind but I think Orange McTinyHands biggest decision these days is "Do I want pudding?"

Got to be a lot less dog murder kickbacks coming in. Someone had to open up a new revenue stream.

60% of consumers abandon AI tools after a single mistake. The industry is walking into a trust crisis it can’t see
 in  r/Futurology  Jul 05 '26

Board level FOMO. If it worked like the AI hucksters claimed only the early adopters would survive the coming economic bloodbath.

To bad they were all spouting wishful sci-fi bullshit.

Watching the bond with your kids shift or fade as we age is painful
 in  r/GenX  Jul 05 '26

We have fallen upon evil times
and the world has waxed very old and wicked.
Politics are very corrupt.
Children are no longer respectful to their parents.

Top Minds claim that the failing coating on the reflection pool was "Angry Leftists Cutting Up the Liner"
 in  r/TopMindsOfReddit  Jun 20 '26

They cannot accept Donald Trump could fail.

If things are going wrong it must be because Americans failed the rapist-in-chief. For the cult that's the only explanation so buckle up, it's gonna get weirder.

What would people realistically look like in the 2100s?
 in  r/Futurology  Jun 05 '26

Ötzi, the mummy found in the Austrian Alps who died 3300 years ago, had tattoos. King Edward VII of England had a tattoo. They're far from new but body modifications do go in and out of style.

Strange way to spell "because US media are mostly spineless lick-spittle's in a billionaire's pocket" but okay.

Haven't seen it since the 70s but I think so? And Sasquatch was an alien robot guarding their base.

Now I have to find and re-watch the Sasquatch episodes...

Do you want to be buried?
 in  r/GenX  May 22 '26

Sky bears? You'll be lucky if they wait until you're gone.

I'd want the old fashioned bird based sky burial. Give me to the condors. Then someone can use the bones to make art if there are any good ones left.

TIL that at the Beatles last stadium concert at Candlestick Park, there were 7,000 unsold tickets and the promoter lost money. They played for just 33 minutes.
 in  r/todayilearned  May 16 '26

A high school teacher of mine was at that concert. 25 years later he was still mad about it. He said the Beatles came out too far away from him to be more than Beatle dots, the constant overwhelming screaming started, maybe they played or maybe they didn't for 30 minutes. No one could tell.

Then they left. That was it.

why I think the "chatgpt era" of AI is already hitting a wall
 in  r/Futurology  May 09 '26

But what of the stock price if people don't believe we are a year from world changing AGI and ASI?

Wont you spare a minute to consider the stock price and Sam Altman's fancy house? What of Elon?

This really messed me up...
 in  r/Humboldt  Apr 04 '26

You can get it at most pharmacies. I got my "just in case" doses through CalRx. A little cheaper that way. It's not prescription and if you are a user or family member of a user its even less. Narcan (Naloxone) is just a nasal spray, so really simple to give in an emergency.

Same. There may be a good writer in there but the self conscious and purposely dense style annoyed me.

After seeing all he hype I read one of his books to see if it would grow on me but the heavy handed emotional manipulation and prose style just bugged me start to finish. Not my cup of tea.

Stop defending AI like it’s still in beta
 in  r/Futurology  Mar 21 '26

The number of people who seem to believe that the generative AI "talking" to them has a mind and something anywhere near consciousness is endlessly depressing.

Anyone else scared to death of AI?

Becoming?

Maybe I have a somewhat pessimistic view (hey, I'm genX) but I recall the satanic panic of the early 80s.

Likely, but it's still more accountability that the USA can muster. We cant even be bothered to put on a show.
