  1. I will apply your question to my father's situation, rather than myself. My dad has a decent amount of musical equipment, as he always wanted to build a studio in his basement. While all 3 of his sons were gifted instruments and enrolled in lessons, I am the only one that ever took to it. My brothers ended up giving me their bass guitars and drums after high school since they didn't even try to play anymore. My dad has told me that when the fateful day comes, he is leaving all of his equipment to me, including old and pristine Les Paul guitars. I'm sure that he's 'balancing' inheritances so that we're all taken care of, but he knows that I will appreciate those items more than anyone else. It's somewhat similar to my grandfather (Dad's dad), who intended on giving me his Superman #1 and Batman #1 comics when I exited high school, but they were destroyed. I don't think that my grandfather had any other assets that he intended on giving to my brothers though. Those simply happened to be things that he kept from childhood that massively appreciated in value, and I was the organized grandchild who enjoyed comics the most.
  2. I was actually dreading this challenge throughout my vacation because I failed so spectacularly the last 2 years to accomplish reading an amount close to the goal. That being said, I'm still gonna try...
  3. @CGC Mike, please move this to the Newbie sub-forum at your earliest convenience.
  4. Not based on what I've seen over the past 7 years. It's disingenuous and/or hyperbolic to say, "CBCS and the company does not know what they are doing", and attribute it to my statement.
  5. No, the review would be: "The writer and I both suck at writing. This movie sucks. As someone who isn't a professional writer, I can observe the signs of another person's inability to write coherently. As such, I can confirm that this is a 0/5"
  6. The writer of this Matrix movie and myself have something in common, except only one of us can recognize it.
  7. If I wrote a book, it probably would be poop, because I am not a professional writer. Whoever wrote this Matrix movie does not deserve to be one, either.
  8. Other than Punisher: War Zone, I cannot think of another film that is completely worthless in an entire 5-minute stretch. If it starts out that bad, I cannot fathom how much worse it gets.
  9. What are you talking about? This movie is literally the only one that I have ever turned off after wasting only 5 minutes of my time... You may be thankful that you don't waste any time of your own.
  10. If I'm gonna clean up vomit, I'd rather it be in just the toilet rather than there and the sink.
  11. It's okay for you to enjoy bad movies, gentlemen. You can join Matt with his love for Punisher: War Zone.
  12. Nah, there's simply only one other guy around these parts obsessed enough with feces to create nicknames at the thought of it.
  13. This probably doesn't affect your interest whatsoever, but the Ant-Man movies are decent. The first one is particularly good IMO. Paul Rudd and Co. did a great job. I'd suggest a watch if you are ever looking for something to pass the time.
  14. That's okay. Those 5 minutes were 1 man's effortless contribution. Just wait until you see what I can really do.
  15. I understand that the truth sometimes hurts and it may take time to accept it, but in the end you will appreciate my honesty.
  16. Thousands of people definitely wasted their time. Keanu couldn't even keep all of that dirty money because he knows how bad the final product is.
