« on: January 12, 2019, 09:28:08 AM »
I think the average IQ in the country has finally dropped into the double digits:

This is apparently a big fad, and I await these idiots suing Netflix whenever they hurt themselves.

What kind of punishment can she expect, being under-age?

I haven't watched it, not sure I will. I've read some interesting stuff about it being a crappy movie, but still topping all Netflix viewing records, partially because of whatever way Netflix "advertises" and counts program views.

I don't understand that other than I have tried a lot of Netflix originals with amazing reviews, and couldn't make it through the first episode of like 90% of them. I will say that the 10% or so I have given the thumbs up to (e.g., Babylon Berlin) have been outstanding.

Wow. 

I was trying to think of something you could do that would do a better job of demonstrating a complete lack of thought toward the consequences.  I am sure there is something, but I can't think of it.
