I think it's a pun, there's "oger" in "limoger". And Shrek is an oger. Ya know

The French are right in looking down on American pop culture, though. It lacks sophistication and is made for brainless plebs.

mainstream culture is so different in america and often regional or differs by state even but yeah.. it's really easy to shit on USA culture in general. all the stuff that gets amplified to other countries isn't the good stuff usually. 

when i was in paris in the 90s all these US tv shows had finally gotten dubbed into french and so some french people we met want to talk about Dallas and "who shot Jr" and also miami Vice. 

i think the effect of suburbia on US culture is probably interesting in a "ugh why'd we do that?" kind oof way. once people fled cities culture became something different..

I was of course being intentionally provocative. I prefer American pop culture to the German one. For some reason "King of Queens" is really popular in Germany. No idea why.

Mainstream culture in general is usually bad, though. People all over the world lack good taste

that's truly bizarre. it's things like this that make you want to give up trying to understand human behavior altogether. for the most part, we are a predictable species. but then a wrench gets thrown into the flow of the universe somewhere, and you end up with "hey the Germans love Kevin James!" please don't tell me his ridiculous movies are popular there too.

Most of us don't export pizza.

Pizza just comes frozen in Germany.

German pizza is made by doctors

They're just jealous that they never had a Coltrane 

If COVID dies down by this summer I have a feeling shit's gonna get crazy. There may already be another "baby boom" on the way.

sounds like the makings of a kick ass pron flick. "ravenous, sex-crazed women band together to hunt down basement dwelling IDM loners, rapping them over and over until babby pops out!"

A vision change caused by diabetes almost cured my nearsightedness. Bizarre

the best part of any thread is when people starting talking about what happened in the thread and picking apart each other's posts as they stray away from any relevant topic and instead pick apart each other's actions

Don't hide. Embrace the opportunity. Such events occur only once every 100 years.

I saw the first baby to be born with COVID antibodies has arrived.

It's strange realizing how much my taste has changed over the years.  Every once in a while I remember an album I used to love and it just isn't the same anymore.  Aphex Twin and Coil just sound boring to me, even when I want to enjoy them the way I used to.  I was just listening to Love's Secret Domain and I just don't hear what I heard back then, instead it just sounds like repetitive loops and background music.  Does anyone else get this with their old favorites?

It isn't even sad honestly, just weird.
