Party like it’s 1999! SN now offers HTML formatting in comments
Just register here (it’s free) and you’re good to go. Here’s an HTML crash course.
Our RSS Feed- The Batman: what were they thinking (1.5 stars out of 5)The Batman was terrible. If you’re mainly watching this for comedic potential, I’d get as many Spanish-speakers or gringos as you can find, and let’s learn about the difference between “el” and “la” with Batman. –There’s a spectacularly strange scene where Batman tries interrogating Riddler and Riddler bursts into a soprano rendition of Ave Maria. […]
- Suicide Squad sequel: 2.5 stars out of 5, far improved over original–There’s intense violence but not a lot of feeling here. It’s not a very exciting movie. But it’s functional. It’s frequently tedious but rarely boring. Only the political sermons and Weasel are viciously bad. It’s definitely a huge improvement over the first movie. –Most of what sucked about Suicide Squad 1 was an overfocus on […]
- Hour 1 of Justice League’s Snyder Cut, Scene By Scene1:30 – 6:55: Cyborg sees his Mother Box acting up. Then Mera sees her Mother box acting up. Then Amazon guards see their Mother Box acting up. Also there’s a Lex Luthor flashback where the computer shows him that Mother Boxes are plot relevant in case you missed that. PS: In the first 8 minutes […]
- 2020: Even Wonder Woman Lets Us Down–Wonder Woman 1984 is not nearly as good at the original. Pluses: the cast is still very charming, and a few of the fight scenes are effective. I did actually like most of the first hour of the movie. –Setting: In the original Wonder Woman, the WWI setting contributes to a hard bleakness which effectively […]
- Captain Marvel Review: 1.5 Stars Out of 51. I don’t know where to start with Captain Marvel. So many things went so wildly wrong that we’d need a presidential commission to get to the bottom of it. It’s like the Chernobyl of superhero movies. 2. If at any point you feel like your action movie would benefit from a character whose main […]
- Spider-Man: Far From Home Review (1 star out of 5)1. This version of Spider-Man is a useless toolbox who actively avoids doing interesting things, and what he does attempt is usually wimpy and/or incompetent. 2. Unlike most main characters, his choices don’t matter much. For example, he chooses to leave his supersuit at home (but his aunt sneaks it in anyway) and he tries […]
- Rotten Tomatoes Score Dataset UpdatedWe’re up to 72 superhero movies since 2000 (current as of November 2017). You can download the full data here. Some observations: R movies are making up the quality gap with PG-13 movies. Superhero movies are improving. Over the last 5 years (2013-2017), the average superhero movie is averaging 70% on Rotten Tomatoes, up […]
- The Batman: what were they thinking (1.5 stars out of 5)
Let’s see if this works. Bold. Italic. Underline.
Strikethrough(line-break)
WOOOHOOO. *cough*
Thanks, B. Mac.
hello. 😀
Oh yeah … one question.
I don’t know how to get to the public view of my profile, but wherever it is, it doesn’t show my email on there, does it?
It does not show your e-mail. Also, your profile does not become public unless you author an article here. Even then, the email stays invisible to everybody but one person. (Also, I won’t use your email for anything unless you specifically sign up for the mailing list in the sidebar).
You mentioned in another post that you won’t sell our email addresses, if you did, what would happen? Is there a market for black market email kidneys? Should I be careful of who my email goes home with at the end of the day? Does a bathtub full of ice work on an email? Are you going to kill my poor little Gmail? .
I registered.
Now I can
use
HTML formattingHTML markup language as well.Eh. My gmail is kinda my throwaway email, I don’t use it much at all. ^^ I used to have it just to have google talk, which now I don’t. But that’s not the point. If B. Mac ever did sell your email or something (which is highly improbable and would never happen unless some evil ruler of the world wannabe created a mind control device and decided to use B. Mac as his/her test subject) all the fudge people would send to your email would go to the spam folder.
That’s what I love about gmail–I don’t log in for a while, then I check it and there’s like 399 messages in the spam folder and I laugh before I delete them forever.
*cough*
anyhow … don’t worry about a thing, Lighting Man.
“You mentioned in another post that you won’t sell our email addresses, if you did, what would happen?” Perhaps the NSA would silently dispose of me in the middle of the night.
Some companies buy email lists, but I imagine the going rate for 100-200 email addresses is pathetically low.
Ah HA!
Now I can proceed with my evil plan to format the world according to my personal taste! Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!
(Sorry for posting twice)
Wait, is this working? I thought I had more formatting than that.
bold italic underline.
Is it working now?
testing. Wow, I’m getting really spammy here. Sorry.
Come to think of it, I guess I did. Sorry; I’ve been really scatterbrained lately.
Thanks. ^_^ I’ll e-mail you here in a minute. My usual e-mail address is messing up, so I need to pull up my backup account.
magical italics of doom
another try at magical italics
Okay. Let’s see if this works.
Testing…
Yes! It’s working! I couldn’t figure this out before!
>I/I<
Ooops
testing repeat
eh?
Oh goodi- There is suddenly a dashboard above the page :V
“Oh, good. There is suddenly a dashboard above the page :V ” I think that happens whenever someone signs in. (To anyone that hasn’t registered yet, you can do so for free or sign in if you have registered here).
“To anyone that hasn’t registered yet, you can do so for free or sign in if you have registered here.”
It says “The ReTARDISed Whovian” is taken as a username, but I don’t even remember registering. Plus I’ve gone through pretty much every password that I have and I can’t get in. Huh. I must have decided on some uber-special password for this site, which isn’t doing me any good now, because I’m locked out! XD
Maybe use the ‘I forgot my password’ feature? It said that for me too (although I remember registering for this site a long time ago, so it’s no glitch lol xD) and it just shipped a new pass to my email…
