DO NOT DISS NICK CAGE
HE’S A GREAT ACTOR

Yelling aside, Adaptation is a fantastic movie. And he plays two characters in that!

I actually quite liked Raising Arizona. And I've also always had something of a soft spot for Nicholas Cage in Con Air, since I was a child. It's just a fun movie.

For a post-mortem one-liner, it's hard to beat: "Oh why couldn't you put the bunny back in the box?"

Raising Arizona is an extremely entertaining movie.
I also like National Treasure in a half ironic way.

Somehow, Google Ads has decided that I'm in Colorado, and that I need to see ads for politicians from Colorado. I cannot vote for these people. I am not in Colorado.

All politics is Colorado.

I'd love it if that were true. I'd love to be able to smoke weed again.

I noticed a very large uptick in Irish political campaign ads from Google immediately after living away long enough to lose the vast majority of my voting privileges there.

I think Google Ads is just a tease.

The Google Hivemind just likes to remind you of all that you have left behind, so you'll be emotionally vulnerable enough to be more receptive to the messages of the special selection of ads that follow afterwards.

Or... the all-knowing Google doesn't know as much as they think?

I have an adblocker -- though it doesn't work on YouTube -- but before I did, Google ads showed me targeted ads for things completely unrelated to anything I ever searched for and local ads for places that were nowhere near.

It might also be that big G prefers to make us think they're not omniscient, so that we emit a sigh of relief and continue to provide them with a rich harvest of personal information.

Consumer psychology is a marvellous thing. Classy evil.

Up until Candy Crush.

Yes. I suppose one way for a corporation -- if they were so inclined -- to get everyone to tell them all their secrets would be to pretend they were too incompetent to remember them

Of course this is all very hypothetical and we have nothing to worry about at all. Everything is absolutely perfect.

I'm feeling better now. The medication works wonders, but damn the antibiotics made you thirsty for a good 3-4 hours.

You're about fifty years too late on the rabble rousing train.

Give in to the consumerism, there's disposable income to blow on random tat, sugar, Steam Sales...

Yeah the marketing module of my bachelors rubbed against it, a lot of it was best described as actively malicious, and that was just a semi-dive in.

There are days still where I am slightly frightened by the suggestions of the business development department.

Too late, you say? On the contrary, my dear! I have arrived just in time, for history tends to repeat itself.
