My top ten favorite films of 2023:
1. Oppenheimer 2. Godzilla Minus One 3. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 4. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny 5. Extraction 2 6. Air 7. Sisu 8. John Wick 4 9. The Killer 10. Last Voyage of the Demeter
Honorable Mention: Really just a couple of asterisks here. I feel like the rumored four hour director's cut of Napoleon has the potential to make my top ten, as does Dune Part II, which should've come out this year.

My top 10 least favorite commercials that are fairly recent:
1. Jardiance. I am not a snob or "weight-ist" when it comes to someone's weight. Be who you are. But this commercial is peak obnoxiousness for a few reasons - "I have type 2 diabetes but I manage it well." Do you? You're pushing 300 pounds. When she starts to dance she looks like one of those air inflated stick figure air dancing things that announce car wash gran openings but a 300 pound version of one. She just stands there flapping her arms. Also, they kind of gloss over the side effects, couching them in medical speak, but one of the side effects of this pill is that it rots your taint. Can you imagine that? A side effect that rots your taint. Not your fingers, not your ears, your fucking taint. I'd rather just have diabetes.
2. Lume. The woman in these commercials is fucking disgusting. I wonder if this product helps with taint rot.
3. Any of the Charmin ones with the bears. These bears are weirdly obsessed with defecation and it disturbs me. Don't tell me how to wipe.
4. All Progressive ones with Flo and her extended universe. I liked Flo when she first started doing these, but enough is enough. Whether it's her evil twin or the parents of the other character or all her coworker tools, it's time to let Flo die.
5. I don't even know the product, Carvana I think? The one where Kristen Bell keeps yelling "Hold!" like she's Braveheart or something. First of all, Bell and her husband are in entirely too many commercials. Why are they the endorsers of literally everything? Second, this commercial just sucks. Various websites estimate her net worth at $40 million. I don't think she's waiting for the exact right moment to sell her car.
6. All St. Jude, Shriners, and SPCA commercials. I'm not making fun of the causes, they are worthy I'm sure. But exploiting the kids and filming the shivering dogs chained outside during blizzard while some mopey Sarah McLachlan song plays just feels wrong. By the way, I read that the one kid in the St Jude commercial is in college now. Let him live his life already.
7. All Liberty Mutual ones. Jesus Christ they beat these into the ground. This last one, Liberty Biberty, I wish they showed the piano falling on him.
8. Any State Farm one with Patrick Mahomes. My hatred of Patrick Mahomes is exceeded only by my hatred of Aaron Rodgers but it's pretty close. Enough said about this Kermit voiced motherfucker.
9. Recent AT&T ones with Lily. I love Lily. Milana Vayntrub is one of the hottest sexiest women I've ever seen with an absolutely killer body and a funny personality. But lately they've been trying to de-emphasize that fact by hiding her behind a counter or having her sitting down or distracting us with LeBron James. Show us her tits for god's sake! Life is hard enough as it is, don't take away something that is awesome!
10. Peloton. Look, I'm sure it's a quality product. I don't have one but sure why not. But they commercials make me hate it, make me hate the instructors, make me hate the people using them, even that old lady in the last one who says "I love that." It's an exercise bike. It seems to be to exercise bikes what Starbucks was to coffee. Take a simple idea and just make it expensive. The price itself is the marketing. Do you do anything on it besides just pedaling?

It seems to be to exercise bikes what Starbucks was to coffee. Take a simple idea and just make it expensive. The price itself is the marketing. Do you do anything on it besides just pedaling? We discussed the 'Liberty Biberty, oh look a bebu' ad in the other thread. This one is by far the worst for me. For the many, layered reasons I mentioned there. The AT&T ones are lame because we don't get a look at her anymore, but apparently that's Milana Vayntrub's choice. She was getting too many creepy, leering comments online or something so she decided to cover up and hide her body. It's a shame, but I guess I get it. I also hope these commercials, as lucrative as I'm sure they are, don't keep her from getting other gigs. She's very sexy and cute, and she's also legitimately funny when given the chance. There's a thoroughly mediocre movie she did called Werewolves Within that showed off her star potential. Peleton ads are brutal, and they couldn't make the product less appealing to me. I guess some people think a tacky, cheesy motivational speaker shouting clichés into a Brittney Spears headset is effective, but it fucking infuriates me. Jardiance... yeah, I agree.. but someone I love dearly loves that ad for some reason. He's too young to know better I guess, but it mesmerizes him. Maybe that should be all the more reason to hate it, but I have confliciting feelings. And yeah, the lume ones. They're, to some degree, also part of this annoying trend of pretending these professional ads are just some 'influencer' sharing some stupid video. So many ads I see online look like crap, have shitty audio, and start with someone saying 'Hey guys, today I wanna tell you about...whatever.' Horrible. I don't know if these are actors or actual 'influencers' but the ads are so lame and phony, and it makes me hate anyone and anything attached to them. I hate all those people and all of those products immediately when I see that approach.

It seems to be to exercise bikes what Starbucks was to coffee. Take a simple idea and just make it expensive. The price itself is the marketing. Do you do anything on it besides just pedaling? I wanna add to these as I agree with basically all of them. 1. Not sure what the commercial is for but the guy trying to remove his own appendix. 2. Any commercial featuring Travis Kelce. 3. The honey cold medicine where the couple tries to have sex with their sick partner but are really just giving them medicine. 4. The Stoffers lasagnas commercials. The nerdy guy giving the power point saying meaty cheesey triggers me as well as the old lady and her facial expressions at the grocery store. 5. Some insurance commercial that lasts like 5 minutes and it has this old woman who refuses to call the number and gives this obnoxious "but im not calling!" Much like the old lady in the Stoffers commercial I hate her facial expressions. 6. The State Farm commercial where Andy Reid steals Jake and Mahomes food. Just hearing Andy Reid saying "nuggies" is unsettling. 7. Franks hot sauce where the guy is about to eat his hot dog and somebody pokes it out of the bun. They add in this like squish sound as he pokes it out grosses me out and the old man yelling "yeawh" which sounds like he is adding a w in there much like how Stevie Griffin emphasizes the h in cool whip. 8. The Little Ceasars commercials. Literally any of them but mostly because Little Ceasars is garbage pizza. The one that first comes to mind is the Justin Jefferson one where he swaps bodies with a little kid in order to eat Little Ceasars. 9. The Head and Shoulders commercial with Mahomes and tiny Troy Polamalu searching for dandruff. Troy's voice doesn't sit well with me. He sounds like he never hit puberty. 10. Some skin condition commercial where a dad is showing off his gut while in a speedo on vacation. His like 13 year old daughter is grossed out by it. No grown adult man should be wearing a speedo around underage children.

I also have a Milan Lucic Bruins jersey, but I don't plan on wearing that anytime soon. Scott Stevens effectively ended Eric Lindros’ career. I can’t in good conscience wear that jersey. The Bruins have great jerseys, I love the black and yellow look. I could however count on one hand Bruins players I like and have a finger or two left over. Bourque, Orr, maybe Middleton or Bucyk.

I was one of the few around here that never bought the "Goat Head" #81 of Miroslav Satan. Looked like a cult here for a while. Oh, and I had a CCCP #17 (Valeri Kharlamov).
Best looking sweaters are the Red Wings road white. The red/white contrast is awesome and the arched names on the back are classic. Canadiens jerseys too. Tough to not want a Beliveau or Richard jersey

10 Best Looking Uniforms of All Time. Since we are on a jersey discussion...
1. Las Vegas Raiders black and silver. Fucking iconic, even when the Raiders stink 2. St. Louis Cardinals home white. The Birds on the Bat rock 3. New York Yankees home white. Hate to admit it, but the pinstripes are baseball 4. Detroit Red Wings road white. See above 5. USC Football cardinal and gold. Nicest looking are when USC And UCLA both wear the home unis 6. Montreal Canadiens home unis. Unchanged since 1917, from Georges Vezina to Nick Suzuki 7. Boston Celtics home whites. 8. UCLA home whites. You can't ignore that much history 9. Penn State home blues. Might be a homer pick but the plain helmets and no names are cool 10. Boston Red Sox home unis.
HM: Any original Six NHL, Chicago Bears home, SF Forty Niners home and road, Texas football burnt orange, North Carolina basketball home, LA Dodgers home, NY Mets home, Any Oakland A's uni that's white or grey, Green Bay home green and gold.

Referring to himself in the third person as 'Uncle Ted' is only like the 14th most distasteful thing about Ted Nugent.

There’s a small group of artists where I can’t separate the art from the artist. Come to think of it, there’s only two, and this walking talking pile of shit is one of them. Yeah Stranglehold is good as are some of his other songs. But he’s such a piece of garbage I stopped listening to him. Kanye is the other. You may ask where I draw the line as the music biz is filled with hateful trash. I dunno, I guess I don’t care too much about those others. I mean Vince Neil killed a guy and turned into a fat waste but I’ll still jam to Dr. Feelgood.
