Of all things I didn’t expect, Fiona Apple was the original answer.

Die Hard

By a pretty huge margin.

That. Movie. Is. Perfect.

Probably Kid A, although I have memories so firmly attached to it that I don’t know that I’d want to.

I don’t believe in karma but holy shit did this guy get some!

Nobody tells this guy when to cum!

And I mean nobody!

Hi friend!

Now you do.

I also did but I thought it was kinda lame?

Dude.

You’re in the APPLE ENTHUSIAST lemmy community.

Take this shit elsewhere and let people enjoy the things they’re excited about.

Lowsy results

Future reference, the word you’re looking for here is “lousy”.

Stay fresh!

Easy.

Challenge them to trial by combat.

If they’re so thin skinned, you’ll easily win with your superior, thicker skin.

Close. One of the first two.

The other was (and I think still is) in Tyson’s Corner, VA.

I understand how, in retrospect, it may feel like it isn’t groundbreaking, but do consider that before Die Hard, there really wasn’t anything quite like it.

A quote straight from Wikipedia:

It is considered to have revitalized the action genre, largely due to its depiction of McClane as a vulnerable and fallible protagonist, in contrast to the muscle-bound and invincible heroes of other films of the period.

While it did sort of fall apart and away from what made it great in the later sequels, I think it’s important to put the film into the context of when it was released and what it did to the genre.

All that to say, Die Hard fucking rules.

Hips don’t lie.

Pecs do.

Old Spice.

Both the plain, beautiful blue Fresh variety.

Both feel clean and smell fresh.

I have very sensitive skin.

I will pitch an apoplectic fit if they ever discontinue it.

YOU HEAR ME, OLD SPICE!? NO ONE NEEDS WOLFSBANE OR WHATEVER OTHER SHIT YOU’RE PEDDLING.

If it makes you feel any better my mom basically does the same thing unless she’s visiting.

But if you ask him, he has to like tell you he’s a TimeCop, right?

Jesus. I remember thinking some of this but it was much hazier and confusing. Amazing that they could actually distill and post those ideas at that time.

It was such a WTF sort of experience. I don’t recall knowing what to do much less think about it but I wasn’t even 20 yet at the time.

Maintenance.

Yeah, this is precisely what I’ve been thinking.

I feel like they gathered data, studied it, and wrote a prescriptive autocorrect that IMO was perfectly fine and was still pretty good at catching words I was most likely to use.

Then, all of a sudden, it turned into fucking scrabble and I find myself going, “WTF are you thinking autocorrect?”

Not sure when the change started but it’s officially shitty now.
