I find it hard to use IMDb ratings as a metric for picking a good horror movie. The scores sometimes seem like they're just all over the place, when looking at the horror genre. I just watch a trailer, maybe read about it a little, and check it out myself. I would've missed a ton of good horror flicks if I had gone with ratings alone

Better than 16 Candles, if I had to choose

No GPS, no map Quest, no internet on cell-phone. You just got lost in the smokey mountains for hours, about to run out of gas, hoping there was an open gas station at the next exit. Just raw-dogging those road-trips for the most part

I tell people I have "phone anxiety"... but it sucks. Family, friends, new acquaintances... it doesn't matter, trying to reply or answer a phone can feel like torture sometimes. Have absolutely lost a few friends over this. You're not alone

A forum should work in tandem with a chatroom in an "ideal" online community, imo. Searchable Q&A with a communication for additional, nuanced interaction. They serve different purposes and can be more powerful when used together, than they could be on their own.

Lemmy does seem to have a bunch of old, crotchety internet nerds on here that like the "old ways" of the webs. But just tell 'em to "go fuck yourself", if they're being a dick; and than don't reply to them again. It's very freeing. They're just butt sensitive about linux and foss, cause they were bullied on early internet forums and now act the same way, when expressing their loud-ass opinions. It's like an unfortunate cycle of abuse that has existed on forums, but don't let it discourage you from asking anyway... the question might help others

I'm a crotchety old internet nerd... tell me to "go fuck myself", just for funsies! It's empowering!

And also... fuck you buddy, get good!

You saying my curiosity may have decreased my threat definition? Now the NSA just thinks I'm a dumbass? Am I like, on an anti-watch list now?

Kinda hurts my feelings a little, and now I'm not sure how to feel. I guess I'll take it

I've heard that people use the dark web markets to buy a lot of illegal tails anonymously. But what do I know...

TailSpin is awesome, but have you seen what DuckTales has to offer?

But if you're already flagged, and then I interact with you online, and use words like "Tails" or "Tor"... am I now flagged? If so, we're all flagged around here now

What word? Tails? Like, "Tails" from Sonic? Or "Tails" as in the word I searched and fucked myself on, for being insatiably curious?

Sonic is the first thing I think of, when I think of Tails. Like "Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic and Tails". And Tails was kinda my favorite character... besides Knuckles, because of the gliding plus climbing thing

But yeah, now I'm apparently not allowed to say "Tails" without scrutiny. C'est la vie. Ignorance is bliss I guess.

Lmao that's low key, kinda how I feel looking at that link right now

Edit: Mother fu**er, and I still clicked it! God damnit; curse my curiosity. It's a link to the Tails website y'all, in case you're wondering. Doesn't matter for me, I'm already balls deep under the NSA's nose now. Hope they're happy my taint is showered
