      We loved the first season! By 2, the actor who plays Bobby starts exaggerating the weird monotone thing with his voice which was challenging. Overall, a good watch—and of course the soundtrack is unmatched.

        Yes I felt the same why, thinking why is he talking like that? Overkill for sure...did RZA really have that deep of a voice? Not when I have heard him.

            @Kasi yes, I am not surprised about that. At least RZA was there to make sure it didn't get too out of hands with the storytelling. What did you think otherwise? The show kind of turns at one point.

              I will still give it 10 out of 10
              Can’t go wrong with it.

              I was listening to Wu-Tang back in 1993.

              Nowadays Rap is dead.

              Today times Rapper’s want to be drug dealers

              As back then was the other way around.

              Roots of reality was different.

              You can see the Rawness Wu-Tang
              Brings out. They are what you see.
              They still haven’t gone soft.

              Mids 90’s hip-hop was strong.

              Along with 2Pac and Biggie beef going on.

              3 best groups of all times.

              NWA starting it all off Godfathers of Gangsta Rap

              Wu-Tang bringing new shaken beats, next level of music.

              G-Unit 50 Cent at time was the king of the world.

              It’s end there for me.

                    @Alex I think he's referring to the stupid automated eBay translation of "selvedge". On a brighter note, i'd probably not be offered a 10oz, but a 295ml shirt.

                      Oh, I just clocked what you meant...

                      Japanese has two alphabets, hiragana and katakana, then also uses Chinese characters, called Kanji. The Japanese language has also adopted many Western words, and deploys Katakana to sound these out.

                      Selvedge translated into Katakana is セルビッチ or se ru bi chi

                            @Alex Curious if you're learning to speak, read, or both? I can imagine trying to read Japanese would be pretty tricky.

                                  It’s not Japanese but I enrolled Jacob into an after school Chinese class that was running and they have been doing the three R’s and holy heck has he picked it up well with the writing side of it and reading

                                    A monolith appeared near Las Vegas. Who is behind these mysterious objects?

                                      @Matt Yes. I can not comprehend the Universe being as large as it is and no other life being present. There are various levels of life (in my mind) that are at different stages, being single cell organisms to complex beings way more advanced than we currently are.

                                        I’m a philosophical pessimist generally speaking so I’m not really on board. I tend to think of the universe in terms of time, not size. The amount of time it took for this planet to develop life and the time it took for that life to evolve makes me pretty dubious that the conditions on other planets would have lined up in such a way as to support life. As a pessimist, I place a pretty low value on the significance of life, specifically intelligent life.

                                          I just discovered that the new movie, The Bikeriders, is based on director Jeff Nichols' brother, Ben's, song of the same name, by an old favorite band of mine, Lucero. I now have a major need to see this movie. I wonder if he used the song in there? I believe the song was based on an old picture book of biker culture or something, as seen in the music video.
