  • I regularly go to a Vietnamese restaurant with work colleagues not only because the food is great, but the entertainment value of the owner berating you for not eating the expensive vegetables or calling you an idiot because you ordered the small drink despite the small price difference is just hilarious. You can tell he isn’t faking it too, the guy really just can’t keep it in. We love it, but I’ve met plenty of people who vowed to never return after the experience.












  • Sadly, being open minded doesn’t automatically make someone smart. But I’ve personally had only good experiences with metal fans, so I’m anecdotally primed to believe what you describe is not a very significant problem, or at least not more widespread than in the general population.








  • Some shows I really enjoyed in recent years:

    • Arcane (amazing animation, world, and story - you don’t need to know anything about the game to enjoy it)
    • Peaky Blinders (it’s finished and so good throughout)
    • Travelers (also finished, extremely underrated)
    • The Expanse (6 seasons of some of the best sci-fi ever)
    • Stranger Things (ongoing but highly recommend)
    • Beef (limited series so finished, so good)
    • The Bear (very good, raw characters and emotions)
    • Ted Lasso (no need to care for football, just extremely lovable characters and heartwarming story)
    • Breaking Bad (if you haven’t watched this, it’s a must - best TV imo)
    • The Last of Us (no need to know the game)
    • Andor (best star wars since the original trilogy, mature, dark, and suspenseful)

    They’re in no particular order, and I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot, but I definitely think all of the above are must watch.
