I love how this is so much more triggering than just the text implies. 4:3 screen, christmas lights that would kill every ounce of contrast in the picture, one wrong move and the pizza gets either wool stuck on it or it falls to the ground. Not to mention that it's too far away to actually eat.

That's without the fact that Peperoni grease can seep through the cardboard and into the white sheets.

Table/chair slightly blocking screen, and I suspect there is some sort of fuckery going on with how that pizza is cut but I'm can't tell because my hands are literally shaking at this point

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago

The size of the pieces is uneven, don't look!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I knew instantly this was created by an experienced troll

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

could've gone even worse with the screen. 1:1 and stretch to fit instead of crop to fit xD

If that's supposed to be a projected image, then it should be washed out af with the room being so lit up. The darkest colors should only be about as dark as the white wall behind it.

There's also the bare pizza box in the stark white comforter. You know that cardboard isn't going to keep all that pepperoni pizza oil in for very long.

[–] jettrscga 67 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I call bullshit. It's not physically possible to be at that scene with a full pizza.

[–] tpihkal 6 points 1 year ago

And that dog is just lying there across the room...seems sus.

Kevin has altered the deal...pray he does not alter it any further.

Look. All of you people complaining about the 4:3 screen.

THAT'S WHAT WE HAD IN THE 80S AND WE LIKED IT THAT WAY.

Stupid kids. Get off my lawn.

[–] tpihkal 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm going to intentionally clip the corner of your lawn everyday.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

there's something really funny about the idea of the hitherto metaphorical kids on one's lawn clipping the lawn, and that being the thing that gets the old guy all grumpy in this scenario. Like not loitering or doing drugs, just unauthorised lawn maintenance.

That TV didn't exist in the 80s. I'm kinda wondering where it came from

And that didn't even bother me as bad as the bias lighting setup on this.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Half-assedly throwing Christmas lights around your screen is an insane idea

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's by far the most disturbing thing about this post. The movie is 2.35:1. This looks even closer to square than 4:3. If you watched the movie with this framing you'd be missing more than half the movie.

Unfortunately, by the time widescreen formats for home viewing became common Star Wars was butchered into a shadow of its former self, so unless you're going to sail the high seas you've got to pick your poison.

If you are a sailor, look up 4k77 or despecalized edition.

I see you're watching the holodeck episode where Captain Reynolds battles Captain Picard for Kirk's seat on the flight deck.

Excellent episode.!

Leaving the box open is akin to murder in my home. You want hot fresh pizza? So do I. Don't leave the box open.

Not really a fan, is that Gandalf and Mal in the picture?

[–] WhereGrapesMayRule 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

You idiot, that's not Star Trek. That is a very popular talent show with Ed McMahon from the 80's called 'Star Search'. I'd recognize that catwalk stage anywhere. Here is L. Skywalker's first performance: https://youtu.be/T98JbbpINm4?feature=shared

You really want to see the world burn. This is like the episode in ENT where captain Archer for the first time after the time war saw a Dalek and Rose is like "what is this" and Archer is like "I thought they were gone for good" or something. Don't hate me if I got the quote wrong.

[–] Boggy 13 points 1 year ago

Nice vegan pizza to go with your star track.

[–] Viking_Hippie 10 points 1 year ago

Just wait until you get to Star Trek Atlantis! I'm not NOT saying that Ford Prefect is a Cylon, but wait 'til you see what Bender has to say about it!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

What exactly is going on in the background of the Death Star there? Are those windows? People working late night office jobs? Are those just a bunch of lit panels going beep-boop? Is there some technician who glances up at them occasionally and goes "Ah, shit. The samouflange (what the fuck is a samouflange?) is out on the megacondenser! Rob, could you please run a parse on panel A5D and get that boy blinky again?" and Rob is like, "You're right, Michael. I hardly noticed."

EDIT: Apparently it's Cloud City. I recall this now. I'm honestly shocked that everyone has been so civil about this.

Here is a DallE rendering of the same setup that maybe is less offensive.

Brave to put a pizza in a paper box ontop of your sheets.
