Yeah... And I'd argue actors come and go, as well.

Adam Sandler had a good run and his shit got old and stale.
Will Ferrell similarly.
Maybe even Kevin Hart.

And now Sandler is doing well with dramas on a streaming service.

The big issue with comedy is if I want to watch something that will make me laugh, I can just pull up old episodes of a sitcom or standup on a streaming service or check out any number of YouTube channels that put out hilarious short clips or even longer sketches or such. We don't need to go to a theater, pay $10, and sit down in a theater for 90 minutes to get some good laughs. And funny people don't need to act in movies to get paid.

Comedy has a place on the big screen with a budget, but it's comedy within a genre like Thor: Love and Thunder or dark comedy within the mystery/detective genre like Knives Out or a bunch of stuff I haven't seen.
 
listen you want to talk comedy? let's bring back posters who have been feted by comedic geniuses like steve allen. until then it's just amateur hour.
 
i haven't thought this all the way out but my gut says comedy is better suited to TV: callbacks, running jokes, formats like standup and sketch don't work in movies, higher diversity of scenarios available over a tv show season

Catch phrases !
 
I just read that Pete Davidson showered with Kim Kardashian.
 
I'm thinking of buying and learning how to play the Trumpet. Mainly cause I just wanna play this Vega stage music at the 3:10 mark

 
I need help with a new pejorative to replace gay. Needs to be fetch, because I say something sucks about 100-1000 times a day. It's gotta be noun-able, e.g. "That's bogus" or "That's so RSF."
 
I feel like an adult bc I just bought a roomba on sale from target.

On Prime day? I've seen like 5 different ads for cheap roombas today. Half off Beats Headsphones was the one that caught my attention, eventhough I don't need new headphones, would be kinda nice to see how they are. Already got the Bose 700's and M&D bluetooth headphones, although the latter really get uncomfortable after awhile.
 
My wife collected some plums and figs from a neighbor's yard (the neighbor says to take them, no one uses them)...mmmm, good.



Summertime.

Yes. Was originally $300 down to $200 at target. I had a 15% coupon + 5% red card discount too
 
I'm hoping to get a good toaster oven on Prime Day. Don't really need anything else.
