Jim's Watch City Bi-Polar Express (Christmas 2024) Review.

[captainsousie]

The name is in bad taste, intentionally or otherwise. What I don't get is crapping on those who disagree with your point. It shows some insecurities in the ones doing the crapping.if you feel the need to make fun of those who are hurt by the name, it says a lot about your character or lack thereof. Will I buy it, no. Specifically because I need no more than what I currently have. Will I be upset with those who do? Hell no. It's not my business.

Great review Jim BTW.

Who’s crapping and who’s disagreeing?

Im 35. I can’t read humor or use the internet properly. Ignore me lol

Hang out with older people. Alternatively, you could watch Leslie Nielsen comedies. I recommend doing both.

I thank you for that last comment in particular. I'm almost sorry that I posted it after some of the comments I have seen.

Don’t be!!

A few years ago in a different context I got a little riled up over a guy turning Alzheimer’s into a term he thought made for a clever article. This hits a similar note for me. Found out we had some shared experiences and although he didn’t have to, he felt on reflection maybe it wasn’t the best choice. I’d be retired on a half million acre ranch somewhere if I had a nickel for all the things I’ve said I thought were clever that may not have been - and not attributing any negative motive or thought to Ernie at all, as I said I don’t know the origin and we all react according to our experiences.

It’s really not that difficult, until you need to make the thread about you instead of what the fuck it’s about.

Well of course it’s a Polar Express reference - still remember taking my then young daughters to the show on a school night when it came out (mom was out of town).

Seems everyone is a little sensitive these days............... no?

Thank you for another well thought out review, @JimInks

The tongue in cheek reference to a real problem which stole its name from a central concept of magnetism which was in turn named because of compasses… is a tongue in cheek reference to a problem that runs strongly in my family and is notorious for causing trouble at Christmas.

I think it’s clever.

If you don't have the self awareness or the ability to reflect that's not on me. Figure out which you are for yourself.

I have some work to do here. Locking this for now.

I know the holidays are coming. But please can we knock it down a peg here this year?
