Sorry about that Hopefully work will get better

wanderer78

I'm sure it will. I have the weekend off. Which is unusual. But it's a nice change of pace.

Si_Crazy

That can help with changing the vibe at work
Hope you have had an amazing weekend

Happy St. Patrick's Day to anyone celebrating!

Si_Crazy

Oh yeah!! That was today, right?
Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
How is it celebrated?

wanderer78

Where I am people get really drunk, loud, and wear green. It's not something I celebrate personally.

But I'm sure there are more legit celebrations elsewhere.

Si_Crazy

That's what I imagined, good drinks and green... sounds like a fun celebration

wanderer78

Yeah, they even dye the river green. I'm almost always working that day though.

Si_Crazy

ohh I imagine it must be a very busy day at work for you.
But the river being green sounds so cool

wanderer78

I like your new icon, Si. I haven't seen the live action version, but Colleen was a favorite of mine in the comics.

Si_Crazy

Thanks Pia! Colleen is definitely my favorite I liked IF, even though there were way too many critics about it. Hope you get to watch it soon ans also stop by the IF board to let us know what you think of it

wanderer78

I'll try to check it out. My to do list with media is so huge. But I did enjoy IF in the comics. And yeah, I'll admit to being annoyed with some of the aspects of the IF show. I was one of those people. But I should give it a chance.

Si_Crazy

I totally get it.. my list of things to watch is huge! I'll never finish it
I'm not very aware of the comic, so to me IF was brand new, no expectations on my part But yeah, lots of people hated the show, and for some points I agree with the POV but others I think people just complained for the sake of complaining

wanderer78

Yes, people love complaining. I was reading an interview with Mark Hamill and Rian Johnson. And they were talking about how things that are considered great today (like The Empire Strikes Back) wouldn't have survived the era of social media. It's brutal. On the upside, it moves pretty fast and people move on to new things quickly.

Si_Crazy

Exactly! Social media has a great side, but it also serves as ammo for a lot of unnecessary hate... which is a shame because some things that had the potential to be good just get destroyed by so many negative points that doesn't even get a fair chance.
