methodwriter85 Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 There's a trending YouTube video that parodies 1917 against the 2020 backdrop of Los Angeles. I wish Blue was still here. He would have loved this.
methodwriter85 Posted January 23, 2022 Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Hey, congrats on Jimmy G (aka my John Carullo fancast) and the 49ers getting to the 2022 NFC championship! Now all that needs to happen is for the Bills to upset the Kansas City Chiefs. Edited January 23, 2022 by methodwriter85
methodwriter85 Posted January 24, 2022 Posted January 24, 2022 Also congrats are in order for the LA Rams making it to the NFC Championship! Is it weird that I want to do a beer bong with Sean McVay? LOL
methodwriter85 Posted August 3, 2023 Posted August 3, 2023 This is an actor named Diego Tinoco who starred in the Netflix series On My Block. He was born (and presumedly?) raised in Anaheim, California. I just love listening to his soothing SoCal accent! The California "slur", as I call it, is really pleasant to listen to in my opinion. I kind of thought of Diego as a Alejandro fancast, but he's a bit too short and bulky for what I pictured. I pictured more along the lines of Manu Rios from Elite as he looked at the 2022 Met Gala.

methodwriter85 Posted February 12, 2024 Posted February 12, 2024 Well, Mark, I know you're a 49ers fan (at least mildly) and I have to say I really was rooting for you guys. Oh, well.
methodwriter85 Posted July 17, 2024 Posted July 17, 2024 Interesting regional difference. Here on the East Coast, we're more likely to refer to freeways as expressway, and we don't use "the" in front of it. So instead of saying, "I'm going to take the 101 freeway", you'd say "I'm to take 95."
methodwriter85 Posted June 29, 2025 Posted June 29, 2025 San Simeon is kind of rundown strip town (not even really a town), but it looks like it's pretty affordable by California beach town standards! It's nice to see a coastal area that wasn't bought up by greedy land developers and developed into an inch of its life. I'm wondering if there's some kind of environmental protection going on here.
methodwriter85 Posted November 16, 2025 Posted November 16, 2025 The Graffiti Towers of Los Angeles. It's a failed abandoned skyscraper project that has since become a canvas for "taggers" and a curiosity for urban exploration. Pretty amazing to think about the vast amount of money that was wasted on something that will never become what it was intended to be. Now it's just an empty billion dollar shell, but has somehow become a monument to the unrealized ambitions of the American dream... 1

Except of course for the annoying fact that it is/was a Chinese project. One of many failed/stalled Chinese projects in LA. 1

One of many failed/stalled Chinese projects in LA. Maybe they could turn it into a tourist destination as a massive art installation. Think of it as like an urban vertical park with murals throughout.
