I’m finally deleting this game after 4 months, I just can’t anymore and it feels so damn good to leave. This will be a longer text I just need to turn on hater mode and let it all out. First and foremost, fuck you scopely and fuck this game. This game is so goddamn greedy and pathetic. The last straw for me was that I’ve never completed an album, I needed TWO cards left, one of them just being a 4 star. I got a wild card from quick wins, and then I was surely going to get the one from robo partners, because I’ve completed every previous partner event and had already completed 3 robots. Then I ACCIDENTALLY accept an invite of some useless idiot that didn’t contribute at all. I was already planning on deleting the game after completing an album, I didn’t care about the +15k dice from completing it I just wanted to beat the odds and go home. I used x1000 multiplier to get as many points as possible since now I had to solo a robot. I only got to 50k points and wasn’t able to complete it. Not a single large number was giving to me while spinning that wheel. Fuck this game. So now I have just one 4 star card left and missed my only chance at getting it. Then there was sticker boom today and I opened two vaults and did I get the last card I needed? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Fuck this game! Cash grab is a middle finger to your face. Board rush is genuinely offensive. +30 dice for completing a board after I spent 300+ dice to complete it?? How the fuck is that logical? Landmark rush is equally as degrading. My landmarks are costing 10 BILLION each to complete and they give me 150 fucking dice for completing the board ye. You should be getting 150 dice from completing the board since board #50. Why tf isn’t ranking up in net worth (which literally takes for fucking ever) giving me at LEAST 1000 dice for each rank up. Especially when I’m beyond double digits of net worth? Why are barely any events winnable? Why tf is rent frenzy a thing? Why tf am I getting paired with sweats with 40 thousand points on the leaderboard when I JUST joined in with 200 points? Why tf is the grand reward for the daily leaderboard events 1600 dice when the only way I’ve ever completed them is using 1000 dice on x1000 multiplier SEVERAL times in order to complete it? Why tf do the quick wins take forever to complete (I know it’s because everything is predetermined and fuck you for that too.) Why tf do I need to get 8000 event points for CASH??? Why tf do you think we care about cash??? The ratios for every reward are so incredibly off. I’m not going to miss this game. You guys please tell me if they ever get rid of cash grab and make stickers actually obtainable. Fuck you scopely and fuck this game, I’m finally out.
EDIT: I wrote this a couple days ago just before the treasures event, right after the partner event ended. I didn't give a crap by then as I had already decided to delete the game. For some reason I was trying to post it every day but it was allowing me to, and today was the lucky day. I just HAD TO post it, I had to rant to somebody, anybody who read. I actually haven't deleted it yet either because again, I was committed to posting this first. I will now finally delete it today. And if anybody would graciously give me the "Making History" sticker before I finally delete this god-forsaken game so I can give it the middle finger then I would very greatly appreciate it!

I can see the half of a bullish W forming and this thing hitting $0.89 again tomorrow. If it bounces off (as it should considering the army that’s been amassed here lol) it’ll take off back to the $1.20 resistance. This is a crucial pivot point. If we are to see this go to the stratosphere, it must break that $1.20 barrier. Not just to $1.22 or $1.25
We need to retest $1.30 and then $1.40 and once again $1.50 These are key points of resistance. Our support is stroooonnnggg but hedge funds have a lot of money. They can’t buy shares if we don’t sell them. I understand being safe and placing stop losses and taking profits. It’s fair and it’s honestly the smartest way to trade stocks. However, if you take profits, why not buy back in when it goes on a discount so the next time it gets to that $1.20 or $1.50 or whatever you sold for profit, you get even more money so you’re not shitting your pants when your initial investment starts dwindling. Play their game and beat them at it with their own money lol that’s what they’re doing in the opposite direction with paper hands people. Remember, you only lose money if you sell. Never EVER risk anything more than you’re willing to lose.
If you’re losing sleep over this shit then you have too much invested and honestly should, for your own mental health, back off a little and take some profits or at least break even when you can and get back in when it’s discounted.
This is entirely my own thoughts not financial advise blah blah blah your money use it when and how you need it. These are just things I’ve learned from investing over the years. It’s not gonna go to fkin 0 overnight unless some catastrophic shit happens and then we’ve probably got other things to worry about than our portfolio. Relaaaxxx and take a breath. Zoom out and look at how far we’ve come so far. I like this stock and the company itself is effectively trying to make the Bentley of EVs and I think it’s sick as hell. I want them to succeed and that’s why I invested more myself. That car has soooooo much potential man. Have a good night and I love you all. Fck the haters, just block people saying negative things honestly.
Think for yourself and enjoy your own life. Don’t argue with people that you can block and never have to worry about for the rest of your life lol alright ima go play some video games. Peace nerds!

﷽
I want to credit these findings to Ayatollah Hosseini Qazvini who is constantly defending Shia Islam against wahabis/salafis. I apologize in advance if there is mistakes in translations.
Many haters of Imam Ali quote a Shia narration in the book Khasal of Sheikh Sadouq, whose authenticity is weak, which states:
عن جعفر بن محمد عليه السلام قال سأل رجل أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام فقال له أسألك عن ثلاث هن فيك أسألك عن قصر خلقك وعن كبر بطنك وعن صلع رأسك فقال أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام إن الله تبارك وتعالى لم يخلقني طويلا ولم يخلقني قصيرا ولكن خلقني معتدلا أضرب القصير فأقده وأضرب الطويل فأقطه وأما كبر بطني فان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله علمني بابا من العلم ففتح لي ذلك الباب ألف باب فازدحم العلم في بطني فنفجت عنه عضوي وأما صلع رأسي فمن إدمان لبس البيض ومجالدة الاقران
On the authority of Jaafar bin Muhammad, peace be upon him, he said: A man asked the Commander of the Faithful, peace be upon him, and he said to him: I ask you about three things that are characteristic of you. I ask you about the shortness of your character, the largeness of your stomach, and the baldness of your head. Then the Commander of the Faithful, peace be upon him, said: God, Blessed and Most High, did not create me tall, nor did He create me short, but rather He created me with a moderate temperate nature, so that I can strike short. So I drive it and hit the long one and pick it off. As for my belly getting bigger, the Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family, taught me a door of knowledge, so that door opened a thousand doors for me, so knowledge crowded into my stomach and I expelled it from my organs. As for the baldness of my head, it is from an addiction to wearing white and wrestling with peers.
It may be understood from this narration that Amir al-Mu'minin was a person who had a big belly and also had no hair on his head. But other hadiths clarify the meaning of this hadith.
Now we will look at the meaning of Anza
In the dictionary, it is stated in the article:
و النزع انحسار مقدم شعر الرأس عن جانبي الجبهة... وفي صفة علي رضي الله عنه البطين الأنزع والعرب تحب النزع وتتيمن بالأنزع وتذم الغمم وتتشاءم بالأغم وتزعم أن الأغم القفا والجبين لا يکون إلا لئيما...
لسان العرب ـ محمد بن مکرم بن منظور الأفريقي المصري ،‌ متوفي 711 ، ج 8 ، ص 352 ، ماده :‌ نزع ، چاپ اول ، ناشر :‌ دار الصادر ـ‌ بيروت ـ چاپ 15 جلدي .
تاج العروس من جواهر القاموس ـ محمد مرتضي الحسيني الزبيدي ،‌ متوفي 1205 ، ج22 ، ص 245 ، ماده نزع ، چاپ 40 جلدي ،‌ ناشر :‌ دار الهداية .
Naza' means that the two sides of the forehead are empty of hair... One of the characteristics of Ali, peace be upon him, is Ba'tin al-Anza, and Arabs like the absence of hair on both sides of the forehead, and they consider such a person to be a good omen, and Ghamm means someone who has a forehead and If the back of his neck is full of hair more than usual, they condemn it and find it unpleasant and they believe that a person who is like this is a lowly person...
The Language of the Arabs - Muhammad bin Makram bin Manzoor al-Afriqi al-Masri, died in 711, vol. 8, p. 352, material: Naza', first edition, publisher: Dar Al-Esq - Beirut - edition 15 leather.

They have stated in the article:
وفي حديث ابن عباس ما رأيت أحسن من شرصة علي هي بفتح الراء الجلحة وهي انحسار الشعر عن جانبي مقدم الرأس
لسان العرب ج7 ، ص 46
النهاية‌ في غريب الحديث و الأثر ـ‌ ابن أثير ـ ج2 ، ص459
In a hadith, Ibn Abbas says: The two sides of Ali's forehead, which was free of hair, looked very beautiful, and I have never seen anyone's forehead as beautiful as this
Lisan al-Arab, vol. 7, p. 46
Al-Nihayah fi Gharib al-Hadith wal-Athar - Ibn Atheer - vol. 2, p. 459
Sharsa means a scar, and a scar means that both sides of the forehead are empty of hair
After the word 'anza', it does not mean a person without hair..
The image of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, among Sunnis:
In the books of Ahl al-Sunnah regarding the icon of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, it is stated as follows:

The word "dakhm albatn (big belly)" means that their belly is not thin and it is not attached to the back bones; Rather, it is balanced, beautiful, good and perfect.

Imam Ali A.S Similar Appearance to Prophets:
In some narrations, it is stated that Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, resembled the prophets in terms of symbols and appearance, which we refer to some of them:

The meaning of anza al batin in hadiths:
In the hadiths of the Ahl al-Bayt, peace be upon them, as well as the hadiths of the Sunnis, it has been stated about the title of Anza al Bateen:
Ibn Juzi says:
ويسمى علي عليه السلام البطين لأنه كان بطينا من العلم وكان يقول عليه السلام لو ثنيت لي الوسادة لذكرت في تفسير بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم حمل بعير ويسمى الأنزع لأنه كان أنزع من الشرك
تذكرة الخواص ـ سبط ابن الجوزي ـ ص 16 ، چاپ مؤسسة اهل البيت عليهم السلام ـ بيروت ، لبنان ـ ، سال چاپ : 1401 ه .ق ،‌ 1981 م
For this reason, Imam Ali (peace be upon him) was called Bateen because his belly was full of knowledge. Therefore, he used to say that if I had the opportunity, I could write an explanation and commentary on Bismillah Rahman Al Rahim as much as a camel's load, and for this reason, he was called Anza because he was free from polytheism.
Al-Khawas map - Ibn al-Jawzi's tribe - page 16, printed by Ahl al-Bayt Foundation - Beirut, Lebanon -, year of publication: 1401 AH, 1981 AD
It is said in a narration from the Prophet:
قال رسول الله صلي الله عليه و آله و سلم يا علي أن الله تعالى قد غفر لك ولأهلك ولشيعتك ومحبي شيعتك ومحبي محبي شيعتك فأبشر فإنك الأنزع البطين منزوع من الشرك بطين من العلم

During the courtship of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, when the Quraish women spoke ill of Hazrat Ali in front of Hazrat Zahra, peace be upon her, the Holy Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said to Hazrat Zahra, peace be upon her:
يا فاطمة... فأما ما قلت إنه بطين فإنه مملوء من علم خصه الله به وأكرمه من بين أمتي
بحار ج43 ، ص 100 و 101 ، ح 11 ، باب فيما قاله رسو الله صلي الله عليه و آله و سلم في فضائل علي عليه السلام لفاطمه عليها السلام

In another narration it is stated:
عن عباية بن ربعي قال جاء رجل إلى ابن عباس فقال له أخبرني عن الأنزع البطين علي بن أبي طالب فقد اختلف الناس فيه فقال له ابن عباس أيها الرجل والله لقد سألت عن رجل ما وطئ الحصى بعد رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله أفضل منه وانه لأخو رسول الله وابن عمه ووصيه وخليفته على أمته وانه الأنزع من الشرك بطين من العلم ولقد سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يقول من أراد النجاة غدا فليأخذ بحجزة هذا الأنزع يعني عليا عليه السلام

Abaya bin Raba'i says: A person came to Ibn Abbas and said: Tell me about Anza' al-Batin Ali bin Abi Talib, because people disagree about his character. Ibn Abbas said: O man, you asked about a person who, I swear to God, after The Messenger of God, no one walked on earth with more virtue than him. Indeed, Ali is the brother, cousin, guardian, successor and caliph of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and his family, and he is free from polytheism and full of knowledge. I heard the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, who said: Whoever wants to be saved on the Day of Resurrection must hold on to the lap of Ali, peace be upon him.
The Causes of the Laws - Sheikh Sadouq - Vol. 1, 159, H3, Chapter 128 - The cause of baldness in the head of Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, and the cause of why he was called al Anza al Batin
The meanings of the news - Sheikh Sadouq - p. 63, h 11, chapter on the meanings of the names of Muhammad and Fatimah and Hassan and Hussein and the Imams, peace be upon them
According to all the evidence, it is clear that the false understanding that was given in the question of the title of Anza Al Batin was wrong and Anza al Bateen has a deep meaning that was expressed in all these historic and traditional sources.

Ok so I’ve read all the posts and comments about this update and I think some of y’all have hit the nail on the head about what is “good” and “bad”. I won’t go into my thoughts because many posts say the same thing, but my question is why? Why was this update needed? Now, I was never the biggest CV hater before. Of course I hated when they sat in the back of the map and made the match last 5 minutes longer than it should have but whatever. In my opinion, carriers previously fit perfectly in a support role. Sure, they could do some damage but their biggest asset was spotting for the team and trying to put BBs in crossfires/show broadsides. But now, carriers have been ripped from the support role and thrust straight into the high dpm machine role we’re seeing. Was this their intention? To completely reverse the role of CVs?
P.S.- I know none of us really know what WG intends, I just want to see what you guys think.

So after being harassed non stop, called names, such as sped (special ed), obnoxious, stupid, fake, trustafarian (which now I know is a thing) and having most if not all of my posts flagged for one thing or another, finally I've been hit with a Reddit warning 😱. What ever am I going to do.
I've been told my posts are too long, too short, unrelated, spam, ect. I've blocked 100+ fake accounts, and that I was quote "taking over" vagabond trying to make it my own personal sub (I've had one of those for a long time). All of this in the last few weeks. I've appealed the warning of course, and I'm curious to see what will happen. Wether I get banned or if the admins made a mistake. Either way I'm voluntarily moving my stuff to my sub Vagrantmangoes and IG where I've received nothing but love (mostly from real vagabonds 🤔 go figure).
99% (and I'm not exaggerating) of the haters profiles are non vagabonds who post their lawns, cars, and household toys they just bought. On my sub and IG I'm in control so any of you fidget spinners come there trying to cause problems I'll end that right quick. Y'all are too fuckin depressed and depressing to get my wit and quirky nature. I thank vagabond and it's mod/s for my Reddit name because without vagabond I wouldn't have used Reddit to begin with.
We're coming into a new age of human darkness, not the first time, not the last. The supreme court is about to make being (and eventually helping) homeless illegal because they know how housies feel about us (It's a new genocide). AI is turning the internet into a battleground of fake Vs real. Cameras and microphones record everyone's actions at least 90% of the time and it's closer to 99% of time spent in public. Taxes and inflation are turning 1st and 3rd world countries into 2nd world ones. Curable diseases are having their cures suppressed (congress just had a speech about that) ect, ect.
What I'm trying to say is the line is being drawn. I have the ability to not be homeless due to my intelligence and silver tongue, I choose to be a vagabond for a reason, a spiritual one. After all is said and done y'all can keep your wealth and shove it down our throats, burn it, toss it into a lake of fire. I'll be okay until I die and will have been treated well by the generous that are left.
It's all about perspective this life, so I'm gonna sit under my mango tree and there ain't no one gonna stop me 🤣....... Mango out....dun dun dun....... For now.

I love a good theory, i enjoy when people in the fandom put in the work to make good theories that are plausible but at the end of the day they need to accept that its just a theory..
It has become common in the fandom that when a theory gets popular enough it gets treated like canon even when its not, like the tanizaki siblings theory which got really popular (but is incorrect because they never pretended to be siblings in the book) and people started treating like canon, or the whole chuuya is not human thing from back when 15 was first released that still hasn't cleared up or the Whole mori lying about his ability theory that while plausible is not canon confirmed and is just a theory.
And i know mori is a controversial topic in this fandom but most of the things i see from both his fans/defenders and his hater are not canon they are either headcanons or theories but both sides insist is canon or will be canon. But at the end of the day are just theories and you can't tell someone that they are wrong based on a personal theory

I love that our page has grown so much. Drop a comment on why you first started looking at the page, what made you follow, etc. We wanna hear from all of you guys. 😘 Personally, I didn’t even know what Reddit was until she made comments about “the haters on here”. I came out of curiosity as one of her followers ( way long ago). My final straw was her telling people she was black like Rashida Jones, lots of other racist comments, Kobe IN a bar for a girls trip, and of course the bullying Koyde. I post because she continues to get away with being a shitty mom and horrible person with zero consequences. I want to see her get the mental health help that she desperately needs! For companies to be working with a women that has a DUI and assaulting a police officer charges… it’s outrageous.

What a fucking ride! One of the best seasons by the Pacers in my living memory, and that is further than I like to admit. So I thought we should all contribute to a 'season report'. I'll go in depth here, but feel free to nitpick and argue and make counterpoints where appropriate.
Season overall 9/10 Would only have been better if there had been no Haliburton injury at a pretty crucial time and of course if we had won the whole damn thing! But for a realist perspective: This is a team that is on the up and a lot of the key-pieces are set, nobody thought we'd do this well (although a few of you did!) and I am incredibly proud to be a Pacers fan.
Front Office 8/10 Getting Siakam was both brave and smart. Signing Brown on the contract we did so we had a good trade chip was brilliant and drafting Ben Sheppard has proven to be a huge hit. Walker is yet to prove himself but I remain fairly hopeful he will develop in the coming years. Only thing I'm slightly annoyed about, even if I did advocate FOR this move, was trading Hield. Yes, we should have traded him, but no, not for what became a second round pick and Dougie McD. Sometimes you need to let past idols be and I think having Buddy as an option on the bench in this play-off run would have been far more beneficial. So what if he didn't want to re-sign.
Coaching staff 8,5/10 Rick dropped the ball a couple of times against the Celtics and various other times this season. Agreed, now show me a single coach that never makes mistakes. They all do except for, maybe, Spoelstra. I can't think of a realistic option to replace Rick. His leadership is beyond reproach and the players fight for each other and for him. Jenny Boucek, Mike Weinar and (interestingly) Jim Boylen have been a really solid coaching team. Lloyd Pierce is near enough ready to lead a team himself, he's been well spoken and the players clearly respect him.
Starters
Tyrese Haliburton 7/10 "What? Why so low, you hater!" May I remind you that Haliburton is the leader of this team and can I point out he doesn't defend well enough without being torched for it? Because that is the simple truth. I won't say he has been 'found out' or 'he's just another Trae Young!' (Trae's going to make people swallow that statement by the way). Tyrese brings positivity and allows us to play the way we do and it is a whirlwind of joy and excitement. The reason he loses points? He is still found out WAY too often on defense. I'm not talking about him being targeted, I'm talking about him showing smart help defense one play and completely being zonked out the next. But the main reason? He can be so much better. I fully expect him to take another big step up next season now that he has this play-off run under his belt.
Pascal Siakam 8/10 In the farming business people talk about 'known quantities' for fields that produce year after year. Pascal is a known quantity. Steady as Edinburgh Castle and reliable when called upon. He's not the top tier defender we might have wanted, but he contributes effectively.
Myles Turner 7.5/10 This is such a tricky player to grade. I've gone higher than I intended to because I am really impressed with how Turner has managed to change his game from being a defensive (but limited) anchor, to a combo player who can bring the heat offensively at the expense of some defensive inefficiency. It is impressive because he's exactly what we need at the five for our dervish system to work. I just wish he became more consistent when under the spotlight. I nearly graded him 6,5 but that would purely have been on the basis of this Celtics series and that would ignore a lot of the good work he has done. I just want him to become our defensive leader again.
Aaron Nesmith 6/10 Oh man, I love Aaron. I love his tenacity, his fire, his defensive prowess. He is legit one of the best defenders at his position in the league and that is exactly what we need him to be. BUT. I can't look past his shooting slump. I don't know what changed, but since the All-star game his 3p% has steadily slid down and it was well below average in the play-offs. Yes, part of that is because he spends so much energy on defense and he gets a huge pass for that. But this off season, please get to converting those wide open threes again, or your place as a starter will be at risk...
Andrew Nembhard 8/10 Booyah! He's arrived! The League all of a sudden realised this kid isn't some flash in the pan. His play-off performances have been stellar. Nobody can reasonably expect this level of performance from any second year player on the biggest stage. Efficient, defended some really difficuly match-ups and crowned it by, arguably, outplaying Tyrese when his number was called in game 3/4. BUT, he's had weaker periods this season and that is to be expected, especially considering his lingering injury.
Bench players 9/10.
Quickfire: TJ McConnell is now legit our sixth man of the year. What a fucking legend. Obi has had a season I didn't expect, he needs to improve his handle (A LOT) and can do with becoming more consistent defensively, but he's been great overall. Mathurin, such a shame he got injured. He clearly had some second season syndrome, but I can't wait to see him fully healthy. Sheppard... How did we pick another Nembhard? Just how? Incredible season for the rook. Speaking of rooks: Walker, have patience young padawan. Your time will come. Big shoutout to Jalen Smith for the start of the season and Jackson for the play-offs, what a luxury to have two great back-up fives.
Have a fucking awesome summer, knowing we'll be back even stronger next season. I'll be cheering on the Mavs (not a diss on the Celtics, just that I'm a big Doncic fan) in the Finals and then... time for the Tour de France. Bonne Nuite mes Amis!

Myron can say you weren't going to pay anyway, but in fact, I would pay $5 a month, with $2.50 going towards Pug Face's Lambo, but there's no way I am paying $17.5 a month for him to pay off his Lambo. Myron said it's all about loyalty, but where is the loyalty on Frog Face's end when you got barred from entering the club on the day of the event? Myron came on stream telling us not to go, saying "Fuck the club and fuck the dude that didn't let him in." He was literally screaming, and at the end of the rant, Pug Face said, "I'm still going, nigga." Yet, Myron would still die on a hill for that loser.
And Myron really has the audacity to tell some of the day-one supporters, who have been donating and sending superchats since the start of the pod, that if you don't join CC, you're not a real supporter but a hater. He expects us to pay for something that has no real value to us, and we are still getting a mediocre product. Look at the last pod those bitches were beyond mid, and Pug Face is still going to stutter his way through the show. If CC had real value, there would be no need to cut out a portion of the after hours.
RIP FnF. Still not watching Whatever pod Brian is the same as Pug Face.

Released on May 13, 2023 via Sony Music Philippines. The song was written by Pablo and produced by him, his brother Joshua Daniel Nase, and Filipino-Canadian music producer Simon Servida. It uses gold mining as a metaphor for achieving success, alluding to the band's career.
The song entered two of Billboard's record charts: World Digital Song Sales—a first among Filipino groups—and the Philippines Songs charts, peaking at numbers eight and eleven, respectively. A dance challenge set to the song became a trend on TikTok. The accompanying music video, directed by Kerbs Balagtas, depicted the band members mining for gold. The group promoted the song with live performances and included it on the set list of their Pagtatag! World Tour (2023–2024). The song has received multiple accolades, including the Wishclusive Pop Performance of the Year award at the Wish 107.5 Music Awards 2024.

“GENTO” places SB19's bold talent and confidence into the spotlight, highlighting their strength and versatility as a group. The song offers a catchy word play, effortlessly weaving ganito (like this), ginto (gold), and gento, the Caviteño word for ganito. It delivers a powerful message of their growth as a group, after years of refinement--just like gold.

Pablo talks about what 'Gento' means during SB19's appearance on AOS.
Pablo, Joshua, and Simon collaborated on the song remotely. From the outset, Pablo already has a clear vision of how the song would sound. He sent Simon a demo of the song along with some notes. Simon then integrated Pablo's notes into the production, making additional contributions to achieve Pablo's vision.
Pablo guided Simon by providing notes on what to change or add, using timestamps as references. To facilitate this process, Pablo sent Simon the demo version of the song featuring his vocals.
Servida Music YT
Simon noted that one element that particularly resonated with him was the song's association with gold or money. Inspired by this, he conceived the idea of creating a vocal sample, which became the main melody of the song.

PLAYBOY Interview With Conan O'Brien Interview by Kevin Cook For Playboy Magazine February 1998 Part 3
Playboy: Now that you're doing so well do you worry about losing your edge? O'Brien: I fear being a victim of success. It's seductive. You have new choices. "Conan, Sylvester Stallone wants to be on, but we're already booked." My feeling is that I must say no to Stallone. "Sorry, Sly. Bob Denver's on that night.
Playboy: How's your relationship with NBC executives now that the show is a success? O'Brien: Better. But I have not forgotten the bad old days. Let me tell you about one executive. He's no longer with the company. I had him killed. But in our darker days he came to the set one night after we did a great show. I come off after the show and this guy says, "Wow, that was terrible." He thought the show should look like MTV. "Run into the audience and tell jokes. Run up to a guy, have him shout his name, get everybody cheering."
Playboy: You didn't agree apparently. O'Brien: Too much of television is energy with no purpose. People going "Whoo!" But that's just empty energy. That's American Gladiators. I often try to lower the energy, especially when school is out and college kids are here. They're huge fans, they're psyched, but we're a quirky comedy show, not MTV Spring Break.
Playboy: Were you thrilled when the Marv Albert sex case hit the news? O'Brien: Oh man, was I into Marv. I would love to trick you into thinking I'm high-minded, but that story made me think, My God, yes, I'll use this, and this... But it bothered me the way he was publicly vilified. People were getting off on the kinky stuff; they condemned Marv for wearing women's clothing, which isn't a crime.
Playboy: Yet tonight you did a Marv Albert joke. You said Marv had a new job as a mannequin at Victoria's Secret. O'Brien: You can be uncomfortable with it and still use it. Isn't that what guilt is all about?
Playboy: What comedy bits do you regret doing? O'Brien: We did one with a character called Randy the Pyloric Sphincter. Now, the point of the joke is that this is not the sphincter that excrement passes through. The pyloric sphincter is at the top of the digestive tract. It basically keeps acid from going up into the oesophagus.
We had a guy in a sphincter costume and a cowboy hat. He says, "Hi kids, I'm Randy the Pyloric Sphincter. No, not that bad sphincter! When food passes through me, it isn't digested yet." He then proceeds to squeeze foods that look like shit whether they're digested or not. Chocolate. Picture a sphincter exuding a huge chocolate bar. We were grossing people out.
Playboy: So why put Randy on the air? O'Brien: I just loved the fact that he wore a cowboy hat.
Playboy: What sorts of bits do you refuse to do? O'Brien: Arbitrary humor. "Here's the sketch: Conan jumps into a barrel of wheat germ." I'll ask him what the joke is. "It's crazy, that's all."
Look, I was a comedy writer. I've been through this before. If the joke is that there is no joke, the writer gets no paycheck.
Playboy: Jumping into wheat germ sounds like Letterman. O'Brien: My show began with me and everyone involved with the show doing all we could to avoid being anything like Letterman. Which is difficult. He invented a lot of the form. He carved out a big territory. He's the Viking who discovered America, and now I have my little piece of northwestern Canada that I'm trying to claim as my own.
Playboy: So how do you avoid being Dave-like? O'Brien: We have always scrupulously avoided found comedy. You never see me going up and talking to normal Joe on the street. The real word of people, dogs, cabbies -- Letterman is great at that. His genius, I think, is playing with the real world around him. Which is not my forte at all. My idea is more about creating a fake, cartoony world and playing with that.
Playboy: Are you goofy in real life? O'Brien: My private life is boring. I've been with the same woman, Lynn Kaplan, for four years, and there ain't nothing crazy going on. Lynn is a talent booker on our show. We go to my house in Connecticut on weekends. I sit around playing guitar.
Playboy: Gossip columnists have placed you in Manhattan with other women. O'Brien: One of them had me with Courteney Cox. Lisa Kudrow and I did improv together years ago and we went out for a while. Maybe that's why I can now be romantically linked to the entire cast of Friends. I may be thrilled with that, but my girlfriend is one of those people who believes everything they read in the tabloids. She's sitting at the table in Connecticut when she opens a tabloid and says, "What the hell?" There's a big photo of me with Courteney Cox. The story says, "Courteney's moving in with Conan."
Playboy: Did Lynn believe it? O'Brien: No, because the story went on to say, "Conan and Courteney were seen at the Fashion Cafe munching veggie burgers." That sentence ended her faith in tabloids. Lynn knows that I would never (a) go to the Fashion Cafe and (b) eat a veggie burger. I'm an Irish-Catholic kid from Boston; I'll eat red meat until my heart explodes out of my chest.
Playboy: Do you still drive an old Ford Taurus? O'Brien: When I got my five-year contract I moved up. Bought a Range Rover. Now I drive the Range Rover to Connecticut for the weekend, park it and tool around in the Taurus all weekend. I can't let go of that Taurus. It's an extension of my penis.
Playboy: Can you forget about the show on weekends? O'Brien: I drive around playing Jerry Reed tapes, fantasizing that I'm some backwoods character. But even then -- you know, it's probably not an accident that people who do these shows tend to be depressive. You want so badly for it to be right every night, but mounting an hour-long show four times a week -- the pace will kill you. One night I put my fist through a tile wall. Another night, I walked off the stage, pulled an air-conditioning unit out of the wall and kicked it. This stuff I can't explain. Nor can I excuse it. But there may be something maddening about these shows. The pace is... I forget shows we did last week. That's why I can't imagine doing this for 30 years. I bet you could show Johnny Carson footage of how he shrieked as his body was lowered into acid and he's say, "Hmm, don't remember that one."
I saw Jerry Seinfeld at the Emmy Awards. He said he liked the show, then he paused and said, "How do you do it?"
"Do what?"
"Do what you do every night for an hour?"
That shocked me. This is Jerry Seinfeld, the master. A man everyone can agree is funny. And I really have no answer.
Playboy: Praise from Seinfeld must cheer you up. O'Brien: (Shaking his head) I worry that we have hit our stride and must be headed for a fall. Because every show has an arc. The Honeymooners had an arc. People forget, but The Honeymooners was mean and depressing. Art Carney wasn't fun and cuddly yet. Even successful shows take time to find their rhythm. Then they get self-indulgent and fuck it up. Look at late Happy Days episodes. They quit shooting on location, Mork keeps visiting, and it's an excuse to spin off new shows.
Playboy: Will you fuck it up, too? O'Brien: Eventually my only consolation may be that I get paid a lot. I'll say, "I know it sucks, but I'm getting $65 million a year!"
Playboy: Letterman said almost exactly that not long ago. When a joke died he admitted it sucked. "But I'm making a fortune!" he said. Do you really worry about losing your edge? O'Brien: I want a living will for my career. I want the people around me to pull the plug when I become a self-parody, an old blowhard like Alan Brady. Remember him, the television star Rob Petrie worked for on the Dick Van Dyke Show? Pompous, over-the-top, over-the-hill. I don't want to be Alan Brady.
Playboy: Letterman paid you an odd compliment. "When I see that show it withers me with exhaustion," he said. O'Brien: That's our new slogan. "Watch Late Night -- We'll wither you." But I think Dave was saying that he knows how hard it is to make a show like this every night.
Playboy: Suppose Leno left The Tonight Show. Would you like to duel Dave at 11:30? O'Brien: Our best slot would be eight A.M.. We have puppets, cartoons, lots of childishness. I think I'm doing an OK late-night show but it's a great kids' show.
Playboy: This from Mr. Hip? O'Brien: No. When someone says this or that sort of comedy is hip and alternative -- "Yes, these are cool people" -- I hate that. Because at the end of the day, funny is funny. People get fooled about me because I went to Harvard. "He's cerebral." But I love Green Acres. I love how Green Acres bends reality.
Playboy: Sounds cerebral. O'Brien: It isn't. In one episode Oliver Douglas has to go to Washington, D.C. His wife says, "Darling, take a picture of the Eiffel Tower." He says, "Lisa, the Eiffel Tower ---" Then Eb comes in. "Mr. Douglas, git me an Eiffel Tower postcard!" Now Oliver is terribly frustrated. He keeps sputtering about Washington, D.C., but nobody listens. At the end, he goes to Washington, looks up, and there's the Eiffel Tower. That is the kind of thing that made me love T.V.
Playboy: As a TV-mad college kid you cooked up scams to meet celebs. O'Brien: I wanted to meet Bill Cosby, so my friends and I offered him some fake award. We took a bowling trophy and called it the Harvard Comedy Award, something like that, and Cosby, thinking it was the Hasty Pudding Award, accepted. So I drive out to meet his private plane. "Over here, Mr. Cosby!" And I chauffeur him in my dad's second hand station wagon. Cosby sits in the backseat, picking old McDonald's wrappers off the floor, and says, "This is about the Hasty Pudding Award?"
"Oh no, nothing like that."
Playboy: You tricked Bill Cosby into letting you drive him around? O'Brien: I didn't realize that one does not pick up a famous person in a 1976 station wagon. They like to fly first-class, to be picked up in a Town Car and put up in a nice hotel. Fortunately I am not directly involved in celebrity care anymore.
Playboy: Did you bring other comics to Harvard? O'Brien: Yes. John Candy's people warned me that John was on the Pritikin diet. They gave me strict dietary instructions. John immediately ran into a bakery on Harvard Square to get pastries. He said they were Pritikin eclairs.
Playboy: You once stole a famous television costume. O'Brien: When Burt Ward visited Harvard there were fliers all over the campus: Burt Ward to Appear With Original Robin Costume (Insured by Lloyd's of London for $500,000). In fact, Burt Ward was said to keep a bunch of them in his car; he'd pass them out to impress girls. Naturally, I wanted to screw with him. A few friends and I attended his speech at the science center. We went dressed as security guards. I said, "Mr. Ward, I've been sent by the dean to safe guard the costume." As if it were the Shroud of Turin. But the guy is humorless. "Yes, very good. That costume is very valuable," he says.
That's when we hit the lights. Which works great in the movies. In the movies the lights go out and suddenly the jewel is gone. In real life, though, what you get is some dimming. You hit the lights and people can see a little less well.
Playboy: Did you grab the costume? O'Brien: We grabbed it and the chase was on. Some Burt Ward admirers -- young Republicans, I guess -- took off after us yelling, "Stop them!" But we escaped in a waiting car. We proceeded to torment Burt Ward for hours on the phone, saying, "This is the Joker, hee-hee-hee. I've got your costume."
Playboy: How did Burt react? O'Brien: Robinlike. He said, "Return it or you will feel my wrath!" Playboy: Burt Ward used to tell reporters he had an IQ of 200. O'Brien: He may be delusional.
Playboy: Were you always starstruck? O'Brien: Stars are fascinating. When I was a writer for Saturday Night Live, Robert Wagner did the show. One day he was sitting offstage, talking on the phone. He had on a camel-hair jacket, silk scarf, and of course his perfectly arranged Robert Wagner hair. "Very good, goodbye," he says, and hangs up. Suddenly his hand shoots up and touches the right side of his head, where the phone receiver may have disturbed a few hairs. At that point you know he has done this smooth move every day since 1948.
Playboy: You seem to prefer goofy celebs -- Jack Lord, William Shatner, Robert Stack. There are photos of Stack and Adam West, TV's Batman, here in your office. Do those guys know you are making fun of them? O'Brien: I'm not. I have a real affection for those men. To me, meeting Andy Griffith is just as interesting as interviewing Allen Ginsberg. I'm interested in Martin Scorsese and Gore Vidal as well as Jaleel White, TV's Urkel.
Playboy: How do Gore Vidal and Urkel compare? O'Brien: I'd say Jaleel White's prose style is not taken as seriously. But the same is true of Vidal's nerd character.
Playboy: As one of the writers on The Simpsons you helped create some memorable characters. O'Brien: What I loved about The Simpsons was that it wasn't a cartoon for kids. A cartoon might look like the friendliest thing in the world, but we were subversive. I loved it when we had Lisa write a patriotic essay in school: "Our country has the strongest, best educational system in the world after Canada, Germany, France, Great Britain..." It was this great sugarcoated cutting remark. I loved her for it.
Playboy: Tell us a Simpsons sercret. O'Brien: When Dan Castellaneta started doing Homer's voice, he was doing Walter Matthau. Like I said, it takes time to find your rhythm.
Playboy: So are you satisfied with your work? O'Brien: Intellectually, yes. The show works. Advertisers like to buy time on it. Young people really like it. But I was a moody, driven, self-critical person before I got this show, and that hasn't changed. It's just that I now have something even more frightening than a Saturday Night Live sketch or a Bart Simpson joke to worry about. I have an hour of comedy broadcast every night. My anxiety has finally met its match.
Playboy: Will you and Lynn get married? O'Brien: The core idea of being a comic, particularly a comic with a talk show, is control. Marriage is a leap of faith, a giving up of control. I'm not sure if I can make that leap.
Playboy: What about kids? O'Brien: What sort of dad would I make? Maybe this job and a normal family life are diametrically opposed. Dave, Jay, Bill Maher, Arsenio -- where are your kids? Jack Paar seemed to have a normal life with a wife and child, but you don't see much of that. And I believe that your kid should be the most important thing in your life. I may not have room, at least not now. I have Pimpbot to think about.
Playboy: Another foul mouthed Late Night character. O'Brien: Half-robot, half-Seventies street pimp. He's got a feathered hat and a metallic voice: "Gotta run my bitches. Run my ho's. I'll cut you." Right now my life revolves around Pimpbot.
Playboy: You need to settle a fashion question. You, Leno and Letterman seldom wear suits off stage. Leno likes flannel shirts, Letterman prefers jeans and sweatshirts. You wear T-shirts. Why wear a suit and tie on the air? O'Brien: There are two schools of thought on that. The Steve Martin approach says that you're putting on a show, so dress up for the people. The George Carlin approach says all that old showbiz stuff is over, this is the new way, so wear a T-shirt. I choose a jacket and tie because that's the uniform people expect talk show hosts to wear. If I came out in a mesh T-shirt and chains it might distract people from the comedy.
Playboy: How would you describe your show? O'Brien: It's a hybrid. If Carson defined the talk show and Letterman was the anti-talk show, where do you go next? That was the question we faced. What we did was make a show that has the visual trappings of the classic Tonight Show -- the desk, the band, the sidekick -- but with everything else perverted. When it works well I'd say my show is one part Carson, one part Charlie Rose and one part Pee-Wee's Playhouse.
Playboy: Do you have any advice for future talk show hosts? O'Brien: You had better love the job. Some hosts don't. You can see it in their eyes. Chevy Chase's talk show -- he did not want to be there. And if that's in your eyes you're finished, because there's another show tomorrow and next week and the week after that. You can't conquer it. You can do two or three or ten good shows in a row and still want to punch a wall when you slip up.
Playboy: Can you ever conquer your repressed childhood? O'Brien: It's always there. I still believe in moral absolutes. Murder, for instance, is wrong, unless it helps the show.
Playboy: Still, talk show hosts have perks most guys can only dream of. O'Brien: It's great to be played over to the desk. You finish your monologue, then the band kicks in as you cross the set. Fortunately, we have a great band. Even when people didn't like anything about the show, they loved the Max Weinberg Seven. The music heightens everything. Now you are more than just a guy in a suit, you're Co-nan O'Bri-en! I think every guy should have that -- if a band played you over to your rental car at the airport, you'd have a cooler day.
Playboy: Is Andy Richter your Ed McMahon? O'Brien: He's Andy. When we were getting started and the network wasn't sure of me, they kept asking, "Who's that Andy guy?" I think we've answered the question. Part of the show's rhythm is my energy played against the quiet steadiness of Andy.
Playboy: Is that rhythm genuine? O'Brien: Yes. Our mentalities mesh. I'm always dissatisfied. He's the guy saying, "Hey, relax. It's good enough." My girlfriend would be happy if I had a bit more of that in me.
Playboy: Who is the guest you can't get? O'Brien: Werner Klemperer. He refuses to revive Colonel Klink, the commandant he played on Hogan's Heroes. Which confuses me. Is he going to come up with another character at this late date -- Werner Klemperer as the aging black man or kung fu fighter? No, he's Colonel Klink.
Playboy: You once said that as a boy you wanted to be like Bob Crane in Hogan's Heroes, the cool guy who "wore a bomber jacket and wised off to Nazis." O'Brien: I asked Werner Klemperer to do some bits as Colonel Klink. He refused. Then a strange thing happened. We're shooting abit on the West Side when Werner Klemperer comes around the corner. Pulling his parka up to his chin, just like Colonel Klink, he walks past our film crew and says, "Hello, Conan. I must say the show is very good lately. Give my best to Andy. Farewell!" It was a cameo appearance in reality. He was there, he was gone. I wanted to shout, "Hey, Werner Klemperer just did a walk-on in my life."
Playboy: Are you losing the boundaries between your life and your job? O'Brien: There are no boundaries. At any minute Werner Klemperer may step in here and give me 30 days in the cooler. It's getting surreal. Just this morning I am going through the lobby downstairs when two girls see me. One girl nudges the other, "Look, it's the guy from Conan O'Brien!" I guess she couldn't quite place me, but she knew which show I was on.

This season was somehow better than i expected, i see a lot of people saying that season 3 was peak of 911 and i dont desagree so far but i was expecting less of Season 4 for that, i am glad that the season still managed to surprise me!
But this season had 3 particular episodes that i loved and wanted to talk here.
04x05, where i already made a separeted post about it, made Maddie character grow on me so much, and made me understand a lot of Buck's character, i think that was one of the most importants episodes of the season if i am being honest.
And i am happy that, apparentely Maddie is going in a postpartum depression route, that is a really SERIOUS condition that isnt talked about it so much in media....
04x11 was a REALLY great surprise, i felt so much adrenaline watching that episode, Josh NAILED IT, he making a whole map of the place ON HIS MIND, being the helicopter that everyone needed???? DAMN that was such a good moment for his character after being baited and beat up before. He deserved that time
04x14 was a really good season finale in my opinion. The TRUST that Eddie has for Buck is insane, people can shipp Buddie or not but there is NO DENIAL that they are soulmates, they are really made for each other and i am glad that they found each other. Eddie being shot scared me.. i feel like his character has SO MUCH death flags, and the talk in the end "if something happens to me..." like CAN WE NOT???? CAN WE REALLY NOT?? (Also i didn't expected Albert to become a firefighter lmao???)
Now i will talk about my experience with some characters that i usually dont talk about it that much:
Athena and Bobby: i like their family dynamic so much and i am GLAD that they are figuring out how to handle their relatioship. AND THANK GOD Bobby is allowing to express his feelings better and louder, i always see him being the "calm and gentle but assertive" guy but everyone has their limit and i am glad that sometimes he reaches his! Athena is SUCH a strong woman oh my god.
Albert: honestly i don't like his character at all.. i was kinda hoping that he died in the accident... sorry guys
Taylor and Flores: the girlfriends of buck and eddie... Taylor somehow grown on me, i am not gonna be a hater of their characters just because i am a buddie enthusiast but you see, she has that personality that captivated me... i would like to see more of her character outside of being "buck's potential love interest" you know? About Flores... she is just there...... like.... idk.... i don't see her appeal... she is really bland
Chimney: LOVED HIS PROTAGONISM THIS SEASONNNN. I don't remeber exactly what episodes where but there was like 3 consecutive episodes where he was THE main character and i loved it SO MUCH, he is pure joy and seeing more of a mature side of him was really good!
Hen: i gonna be honest, i am kinda scared about this whole doctor arc, i don't want her to leave the 118.... and about the adoption arc, that really destroyed me... they are stronger than me honstly....
Excited for season 5!
TDRL; loved the season more than i expected
So far: S3 > S2 >S4 >S1

Hello, all: time to dive in - the takeaway message here is that there is no evidence that Thomas Kingston had a funeral on March 12th as reported.
Every single article about this funeral informs us that William was present at the funeral, and with no photo or quote evidence, we need to seriously examine how flimsy the facts are that it even happened. I do believe Thomas Kingston is actually dead, and therefore something must have happened with the body, but I DO NOT believe he had a service in the way it has been reported. The reports of his funeral were fabricated to send one message: William was present at his funeral.
Just the day prior, on March 11, Camilla and William appeared and were photographed sitting together at Westminster Abbey to mark Commonwealth Day. There are quite a few photos from that day, as are the many days before - folks will say there is a media block on these stories, but evidence shows there are many photos of the Royals taken and published the same day. Which makes it extremely strange that the next day, there are are NO photos from the funeral of Thomas Kingston - an event that allegedly had 140 guests, including Prince William, and had a funeral procession that went from Kensington Palace to St. James palace. No photos from outside, inside, or direct quotes from anyone who attended the funeral.
At this point, there was no official statement from Buckingham Palace or Kensington Palace on the death of Thomas Kingston, and no announced services. The funeral was first reported by Richard Eden to the Daily Mail at 12:44 EDT on March 12 (the same date as the alleged service).
Now, we are seeing articles in late May saying Lady Gabriella is being asked to appear at the Trooping of the Colors and that there will be another, larger service in honor of Thomas Kingston in June. Why are they having another service, and why would there be a second one? Why was the first one so small? How did the first service manage to stay so private when it was 140 people, including the Prince of Wales? Now, I found a Daily Beast article that claims "Buckingham Palace had requested that no media attended the service". Was the service ever announced? No. I'd like to see the email to the news outlets telling them no press allowed. If there is no media allowed, why would Buckingham Palace immediately confirm William's attendance and allow a dozen stories to run the same day? Sure, very private. Related - I'm making a master timeline of the RF since December 2023, and let me tell you - Camilla has been more active than any of them. She was just with William the day before, she's been the biggest show horse of them all this year, and yet she's not present for this tragic funeral? I don't buy it.
As with much of this Kate Missing saga, I don't know exactly how this piece fits or what it means. But it is a piece of the puzzle, no doubt. They want us to believe that Thomas Kingston's death was not suspicious, and that William appeared at his funeral. ------
Now let's examine some key dates and facts as they have been reported:
Thomas Kingston died Sunday, February 25, 2024

• "According to The Telegraph, Kingston died by suicide at his parents’ home in the Cotswolds on Sunday. He was 45. Senior coroner for Gloucestershire, Katy Skerrett, said Kingston had lunch with his parents before his father took their dogs on a walk. "On his return, Mr. Kingston was not in the house," according to the coroner's office. Kingston's mother began to search for him after 30 minutes, and his father "forced entry on a locked outbuilding when no reply could be gained. His father found Mr Kingston deceased, with a catastrophic head injury. A gun was present at the scene. The emergency services were called and the police are satisfied that the death is not suspicious," the coroner's office said." https://people.com/thomas-kingston-died-traumatic-head-wound-gunshot-lady-gabriella-husband-cause-of-death-age-45-8602940

• Announced simultaneously by his family's statement and Buckingham Palace, both statements only released as quoted through the media. Earliest report of statements announcing death were late Tuesday Feb 27. (There was no official statement on royal.uk website or their social media. The quote from Buckingham Palace comes through an unnamed spokesperson.)
• Thomas' widow, parents family statement, unclear who released it (some articles say authorized/released by Buckingham palace for the family). According to Tatler, it came from Kingston's family first:
  • "Kingston’s parents, Martin and Jill Kingston, and his sisters Joanna Connolly and Emma Murray announced his death at 6pm on Tuesday 27 February, describing him as a ‘beloved husband, son and brother’, before asking the public to ‘respect our privacy as we mourn his passing.’ Kingston was found dead at an address in Gloucestershire, and a police spokesperson said that the ‘death is not being treated as suspicious’ and a ‘file will be prepared for the coroner.’" https://www.tatler.com/article/thomas-kingston-funeral-lady-gabriella-windsor
  • "A statement released on Tuesday on behalf of Lady Gabriella Kingston, Martin and Jill Kingston, Joanna Connolly and Emma Murray said, "It is with the deepest sorrow that we announce the death of Thomas Kingston, our beloved husband, son and brother.

Why no press at the funeral?
I just found this - I haven't seen this detail in any other article so I'll post it here.
"Buckingham Palace had requested that no media attended the service, which was held at Chapel Royal, St James’s, followed by a reception in St. James’s Palace.
A spokesperson for the palace Tuesday thanked the media for respecting the family’s privacy and said the funeral was attended by Prince William. The queen was not able to attend due to a prior engagement and the king could not attend due to medical advice to avoid large gatherings while he is being treated for cancer.
A larger memorial service is likely to be held in due course."
