  • I understand how, in retrospect, it may feel like it isn’t groundbreaking, but do consider that before Die Hard, there really wasn’t anything quite like it.

    A quote straight from Wikipedia:

    It is considered to have revitalized the action genre, largely due to its depiction of McClane as a vulnerable and fallible protagonist, in contrast to the muscle-bound and invincible heroes of other films of the period.

    While it did sort of fall apart and away from what made it great in the later sequels, I think it’s important to put the film into the context of when it was released and what it did to the genre.

    All that to say, Die Hard fucking rules.

  • Old Spice.

    Both the plain, beautiful blue Fresh variety.

    Both feel clean and smell fresh.

    I have very sensitive skin.

    I will pitch an apoplectic fit if they ever discontinue it.

    YOU HEAR ME, OLD SPICE!? NO ONE NEEDS WOLFSBANE OR WHATEVER OTHER SHIT YOU’RE PEDDLING.

  • Yeah, this is precisely what I’ve been thinking.

    I feel like they gathered data, studied it, and wrote a prescriptive autocorrect that IMO was perfectly fine and was still pretty good at catching words I was most likely to use.

    Then, all of a sudden, it turned into fucking scrabble and I find myself going, “WTF are you thinking autocorrect?”

    Not sure when the change started but it’s officially shitty now.
