1. To become a polyglot
2. Have consistent Good Health
3. Money money money

My original three each came out a specific version of 'a cure for...' which briefly put me in a place I have learned to methodically pull myself back from. Nope. Chill and hang out. Cheers!

Every time! But I know to stick to the basics and not get ahead of myself. But it's aspirational for me.

My most favorite Brian Wilson 'video' is this raw footage (you can ignore the visuals) of the making of God Only Knows. In 2 parts, it shows how Brian would give musical directions just by saying 'play pa pa pa pa but faster'. A generational talent.

Oh man, Slap Shot is a no-brainer but it's great to see Goon getting a call up for the Dudes Rock draft. My picks besides the above two:
Warriors (1979)
The Prestige (2006)
Master and Commander (2003)
Wildcard: A Hard Day's Night (1964)

Since you're commenting on, I think, the general adoption of the app: I installed it a while back. Within seconds I received messages asking if this was me from two people I hadn't spoken to in years (for good reason). People on Reddit argue this is not a flaw but it made me delete it immediately.

What good is your 'ability' if you withhold help from those who lack your blessings? Of what use even are you, whether as an individual, or as a society?
What an ugly way to evolve this practice into an attack on the most vulnerable. Shame.

Agreed so much. It's a simple joy of everyday life. I've been going out dining, to movies, outdoor events, etc. by myself since my youth, regardless of social circumstances.
To the topic at hand: thanks to pro cooks online such as yourself, cooking well is my goal now.

These past few years have seen many formerly reasonable to contrarian commentators take a turn into unrepentantly trolling territory.
Who exactly is vacating the space Gazans are to resettle to? Or did Dhume miss even 5th grade history.
