@PapaJohns can you guys bring back the deals for smaller pizzas? For a while you had a deal for a small pizza and a small drink, that was pretty cool. What I really want is a small or medium carryout pizza with 3+ toppings for under $17. Is that possible? Work with me papa

@pax Just spitballing ideas here: maybe a “show floor only” badge that is cheaper? No access to panels, tournaments, or anything like that, but at least you can see the show floor, take in the vibe, play a few games, and maybe even buy some of your con merch?

[Colter Potter @Colterpotter]

@pax I went to pax every year from 2008 to 2018, and I would love to go back, but the prices are just not worth it. $85 for just a Saturday badge, and thats just the earlybird price? What is it gonna be day-of? Over $100? For one day?

Heartbreaking: An otherwise terrible person is spitting facts on this issue

I was at Disney when the Land launched. In fact, I personally wrote a lot of the copy for the Star Wars Land rides and the Star Wars hotel in the marketing materials and for the website.

When I say there was crushing disappointment, almost a feeling of betrayal that the whole thing was on the new IP and not the original IP, I am not exaggerating.

Disney made the decision to invest this money in order to support the new trilogy, which they thought would erase the old one in the minds of fans. The level of hubris around this is one for the business industry history books.

Bob Chapek, who was head of Parks at the time (since fired in disgrace), was in charge of greenlighting all creative in Star Wars Land. He killed things like a lifesize Bantha ride where guests would ride around the land on top of a Bantha. He killed the live show at the cantina. And most importantly, he gave the land its own lame subplot where you had to use your phone to scan kiosks and get some code messages deciphered so you were "part of the Resistance," but it had no payoff.

Then reality struck: they made a trilogy that destroyed the OG characters. They elevated an insufferably annoying mary sue girl boss, added a pathetic loser son of Han, a divorced Leia and Han, a disillusioned and bitter Luke, and then killed Luke, Han, and Leia.

Result: JJ Abrams' career was finished as a filmmaker. Rian Johnson was wrecked. Kathleen Kennedy is finally out as head of Lucas. Chapek out. Disney movies are garbage. The greatest entertainment IP ever created was lit on fire to appease the egos of the geniuses who bought it and thought they could outdo the original genius.

And now it's too late. No one cares that Darth will be walking around again to John Williams score. The new Leia face character looks like Brenda from HR.

By the way, Tomorrowland already HAD Stormtrooper) (the original ones, not the new fat ones_, Jedis, and Darth in a wonderful live show for years. My kids all took part in light saber battles against Darth Vader many times. It was hilarious and thrilling. Killed in favor of the new slop.

Absolutely over.

I also think that in a perfect world tipping should be voluntary rather than expected, as it is almost everywhere outside of the US

Food delivery fees DO NOT go to the driver. This info is freely available, yet it seems like people still don’t understand. It’s similar to paying shipping costs when buying products online. Does that fee go directly to the UPS man who delivers your package? Obviously not.

[Colter Potter @Colterpotter]

As far as my own personal views, I think that delivery fees make sense if you compare them to shipping and handling fees. The $ amount should manage itself as long as customers balk when it gets too high. Food delivery is a luxury and should be treated as such.

@Airbnb There should be a way to filter out sofa beds/air mattresses/etc when searching. Perhaps when you go to filter by number of beds there should be a check box for ☑️ “include non-standard beds”

[Colter Potter @Colterpotter]

I have a vivid memory of laying in bed watching this late at night on adult swim by myself when I was like eight years old. One of the most bizarre moments of my life, I genuinely wasn’t sure if I was dreaming or not.

Watch the UNCUT version of Space Ghost 'Fire Ant' episode where he ditches his interview with Conan O'Brien to follow an ant for 11-minutes.

I rewatch this from time to time and always get goosebumps. I wish I had seen this before watching the final episodes of BB, such a great piece of marketing.

Baby Gronk isn’t actually a young Gronk he’s a completely different person from the same species. His real name is Groku.

People talk shit on rainforest cafe only because it still exists. If that mf went out of business you can bet you’d see nostalgia posts about it every day. “What I wouldn’t give to hear my waiter shout VOLCANO one last time…”
