I once read an excellent article on Confirmation Bias. It was well thought out, but it did not tell me anything I did not already know.

Post: Aktungbby's post, discussing a fishing boat - This is actually from mid-December, 2021, as you can see, but I missed this one, being an SH4-centric fellow... sorry, but since it's so close to the voting period anyway, would it be able to qualify for 2022??

Nominated Post: My new Toilet

Quote:

I finally decided to replace the crappy builder's (non)quality toilet in our main bathroom. Ours really was bad.

Naturally, The Frau wanted something modern and fancy. Why not? So I ordered one.

Equally naturally, this was made in China because... everything is made in China these days. :)

So the directions are in Chinese transliterated into English and you know that's gonna be fun!

One of the first warnings was

"Do not install this product in damp places such as bathrooms" :doh: I guess I am supposed to install this toilet in the living room??

Another warning

"Do not use this product when you are out of your mind". I will keep that under advisement.

Finally

"Pull out the [power] plug when it thunders" This especially concerns me as often when I use the toilet there is thunder. :oops:

But in any case, the new throne works better than I imagined. Glad I got it.

Honestly, I am surprised that it does not come with an Iphone app. :D

Hollywood have really overstepped the mark on this one.

That Prey film might have been worth a look but after watching the video I think I'll give it a miss. :haha:
Those Comanche Dog Soldiers of years gone by were the most brutal Indian Braves that the continent of North America has ever seen, letting any squaw tell them what to do never mind showing them up to be a bunch of ****ing fairies would have been the death of her.

Wonder Woman 1984.

No Spoilers.

Gal Gadot is a decent enough actress but even she couldn't save this movie from the inevitable train wreck it was. Some of the reviews say this film is "brilliant and fantastic", ****ing hell, what chemical substances were they taking at the time?.
I'll be brutally honest and say that most of these reviewers were being "Paid" to say that bleeding nonsense, the disingenuous bastards.

I think big Hollywood movies such as the Godfather, Predator, Terminator, Alien, The Matrix etc are beyond Hollywoods reach now, they've forgotten what a big Blockbuster is and how important the script is to it, until they go back to basics they'll keep right on producing garbage like this movie.
This Wonder Woman 1984 film with a budget of 200 million USD and a Gross worldwide $166,801,036 tells me one thing, it should never have been made.

I have to say that this film is so bad that I almost walked out of my own house!, I have to give it a rating so, the length of the film is 2.25 and that's what its getting.
Film Rating 2.25

Nomination basis: Reece always posts in the Curiosity and the Cat post. I'm not sure where Reece finds them but they are hysterical. I'm sure we all laugh. Reece always posts in Subsim and is just a great, solid member not only for the post I nominated but for so many others. Reece is and remains one of the mainstays here in Subsim.
