Depending on what you consider old, I liked Brazil and Silent Running when I watched them recently.

I am so sick of the dream sequence scenes. They just aren't intriguing at all and waste so much of the runtime.

In a similar boat. I decided I wanted to actually learn spanish, so a couple months ago I got serious about watching Comprehensible Input (Dreaming Spanish). Between that and self study and speaking practice I'm already well past where I was in high school, though I still have a long way to go to fluency.

It's frustrating that I have to find this all out years after my education. But I feel that way about most subjects I learned in school, so this is no different.

I struggle to care about US soccer, but at this point it's hard not to blame the coaching. Unlike US teams of years past, all the talent you need to progress in tournaments is there. Sure, an individual red card against Panama is a blow, but it's still not a good excuse for crashing out against Panama followed by a tepid performance against Uruguay.

That's dumb, sorry about that. If you want to smooth over the office politics, you could bring in an identical bag of chips (or equivalent item) and offer to share with coworkers. Obviously maybe cost prohibitive but might make your narc coworker relax a bit.

Yes, this is why spay and neuter and trap, neuter, release programs are so important. We need to also be actively reducing the population of pets while caring for the ones that currently exist as best we can. And sometimes the "best" option is to euthanize, but it is definitely not a decision taken lightly.
