My group uses teams to assign tasks and keep track of things we finished.

Super convenient for repetitive tasks that you do every week.

For everyone wondering how republican voters justify this type of shitty lawmaking, it's like this.

"No one's forcing them to work."

"They came to this country to work, and this is our laws"

"They have it way worse in Mexico"

I've heard em all from people I work with.

I can't imagine not loving every second of that movie. I still sing Uncle Fucker to myself.

From what I've gathered they essentially betrayed every single principle, lesson, and character development that the books explored beautifully.

Think M Night's "The Last Airbender" compared to the original Cartoon or Dragon Ball Evolution compared to the Anime.

To me battlefield earth falls under the "so bad it begins to loop back around into Cheesey fun" category.

I especially love how what are essentially cave men find F16 fighter jets from the past and not only do the jets and old fuel work, but the cave men know how to start them and fly them effectively.

L Ron really outdid himself on that gem.

I understand the first three, but I have to fundamentally disagree with you as much as humanly possible on Rogue One being terrible. I absolutely respect your right and and opinion to think so, but for me it's one of the best representations of what Star Wars should be in the space fiction genre.

What was it about Rogue One that bothered you so much that you couldn't finish?

So I went and saw it on a weekend with a buddy just because we liked seeing movies. We went into it with no idea what it was about besides "epic dragon movie". I watched so many fans of the book get up angrily about 35 minutes in and storm out.

We talked to one of the theatre employees and they said that they had never received so many refund requests for a bad film before Eragon.

Since you haven't received a serious answer yet...

Utah is self reffered to as the Beehive State because Brigham Young originally wanted to name it "Deseret" from the Book of Mormon. "Deseret" in LDS teachings means "Honeybee". This was meant to show that the Mormon settlers were hardworking, industrious, and self reliant.

This obviously didn't fly for a ton of reasons and they didn't have much of a choice after the Union Army basically chased them halfway across the country and then took a foothold right alongside them in the territory to make sure they didn't establish a Theocratic state.

That'd be considered a win for a lot of these people. They would rather their young children die of easily preventable illnesses then find out that they're gay.

The bad ones sure. You have no idea how many get by you because they're done professionally.

I watched a guy get kicked out of the Costco food court area because he kept saying his dog was an "licensed" ESA. The Costco manager busted out a little card with the relevant federal laws for a service animal and listed all the rules the dog was breaking by lunging at people, not staying under the table, and barking it's head off at a real service animal that was just sitting calmly under it's owners table like nothing was going on around it.

Even if your dog is truly a licensed and trained service animal, but you've allowed it to continously break all the rules it's supposed to follow in a private business. They can still kick you out if your dog doesn't behave like it's supposed to be behaving. That's why it's a big no no to interact with working animals with their vests on and for owners to let their working animals to break the rules repeatedly by misbehaving and never correcting them.
