TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it

One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

Today I showed the designers that you can name cells in spreadsheets and use the names in formulas (i.e. "=PLAYER_LEVEL" instead of "=C12"). You can then use the Name Manager to track or rename them. I thought this was common knowledge, but I guess not, so sharing that tidbit here.

once again schulz paves the way

A panel from an August 1965 Peanuts strip. Snoopy stands on a beach, shocked, thinking “It’s her! My old skating girl friend! A beagle in a bikini!” I could tell you exactly which date this strip was from but due to the recent financial gatekeeping of the GoComics archive I no longer have immediate easy access to such information. I mean it’s $35 a year to read Peanuts. I love Peanuts but like come on its Peanuts you shouldn’t have to pay for Peanuts. anyways you can find it elsewhere pretty easily but the strips aren’t labeled by date in the Fantagraphics collections so. anyways

More words from me. Kicking off this week working with my old coworkers over at Aftermath; talkin' about Silent Hill f!

Let's talk about one of the game's most memorable puzzles. It's about tricking yourself because "did something just move?"

It's also about leaning close and getting intimate...
