    'Top Gun: Maverick': Patches On Tom Cruise's Jacket Spark Controversy

    I think the trailer I watched mentioned he was a Captain, so an O-6 in the Navy.

    'Top Gun: Maverick': Patches On Tom Cruise's Jacket Spark Controversy

    an 0-6 in the Navy is forcibly retired at the 30 year mark if not promoted, which would have been more than a few years ago considering the new movie takes place 34 years after the original, and one can assume Maverick had at least 6 years of service prior to that movie. However the Navy is...

    'Top Gun: Maverick': Patches On Tom Cruise's Jacket Spark Controversy

    smaller details are changed all the time for different markets. One that springs to mind is the list Captain America was making in Winter Soldier of things he missed while frozen that he needed to experience. Some stuff they left, some stuff they changed, because every audience isn't going to...

    Meet the new 007.

    I'll tell you one thing, its great marketing. Here we are talking about it, when we hadn't been previously. And I'm sure similar conversations (with varying degrees of outrage) are happening all over the place instead of the rather stagnant state of nobody really caring too much about Bond...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Fresh in from Ecuador. I reluctantly had to replace the black rimmed Panama I was trying to make my daily, but this one fits way better and I didn't have to do anything to it. Sent from my moto z3 using Tapatalk

    Meet the new 007.

    It is my understand that this is a Bond film. The new 007 is likely just to show that he is actually "retired" at that point in the movie that the action kicks in and Bond is pulled back into the spy game. Her character will probably get killed off by the end and Bond will be back as 007. The...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Currently trying to power through Marvel's Runaways on hulu. All in all, it isn't that interesting of a show. I'm mainly watching it in case it has some sort of crossover with any of the movies or other Marvel tv shows (Cloak and Dagger are primed for a crossover).

    Its a pretty impactful storyline from the comics.

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    Its one of those weird things where it means 2 completely different things depending on the context, and both are still pretty commonly used. Most recently, Taylor Swift dropped a new album, but many theatres dropped the newest Xmen movie. Taylor Swift released a new album, but the theatres...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    people don't change just because they join the police force. if he was an asshole bully before, he's still an asshole bully now. If he was a good upstanding person before, he's still a good upstanding person now. People try to associate the 2. Cops are assholes. No, assholes are assholes, its...

    Fedora - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    There are many subjects that have their own wiki. Star Wars immediately comes to mind with their "wookiepedia". In essence, Wikipedia is a good source of starter information about Star Wars, but wookiepedia goes more in depth on certain topics. Of course this isn't true of all topics, with some...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Finishing up Jessica Jones season 3 on Netflix. one more episode to go. I know a lot of people didn't like Jessica Jones, but I do. It shows that not everything with superheroes needs to have explosions every few minutes and massive fight scenes. I like the psychological aspect of being a...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    In all fairness, I prefer a military haircut. Having had my hair that short for so many years, anything longer feels awkward on my head. And I often wear sunglasses on an overcast day. The light bothers my eyes more than on a sunny day. I guess I'm just some dumb meathead too.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Yesterday the teller at the gas company was so enamored by my hat that she almost forgot to ask for my address to access my account. From there I went to the grocery store, where I watched a gentleman reroute his wife's shopping cart so that he could pass by me to compliment my hat. I was...

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    This one is very situational. I'd say that I still hear it pretty regular when the occasion calls for something of the sort. I don't hear it often, but I attribute that solely to rarity of the circumstances in which it would be said.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I've a long held belief that signs exist because someone, somewhere, proved the need for it. When working at a local donut stand in high school, I noted the warning label on the vegetable shortening container stating that you shouldn't put your hands in hot grease. Curious, I researched and...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Maybe you guys can help me, I'm looking at a Borsalino Anello for $75 and don't know enough about them to know if I should pull the trigger or not. I tried looking them up on the board and on the google, but didn't really find anything. It looks like the crown has been opened up, and the brim...

    Starting to see more hats

    I can only recall seeing 3 people besides myself wearing something other than a baseball cap in my area over the past 7 or 8 months. 1 wearing a straw porkpie of some sort back in January; 1 carrying a nice, but inexpensive looking straw hat a couple months ago in line at the Popeyes chicken on...
