@BigViffer OMG-John Goodman's character?! What a tool. I had the most immense frustration the whole time I watched him. I just wanted to smack him and tell him to shove off! *snort* (This close. I'm serious. This close to shouting at the tv to eff off. LOL.)

1. Since when is there a guys only section and how come I didn't know.

2. The Big Lebowski is a character study of The Dude. And The Dude abides. It's just funny.

3. Napolean Dynamite is almost the exact same thing. It's just funny because the characters are funny.

@Half-Tum Dear God. Now I'm going to have to watch it a 6th time, JUST to find something abiding in The Dude! (Yes, even though Mr. Fluffy knows I have a movie crush on Jeff Bridges--I still couldn't make it through the movie. It's literally my nephew's favorite movie. LOL)

@BigViffer See? Now you've got at least one new, very fun playmate. And there is also @cjsunshine of CJ and the Sunshine Band fame--who should also go play in the Guys' Room. And there are others (I just am drawing a blank on their nics right this instant)...to quote yet another dude film--this one totally awesome...If you build it, they will come. :D

bahahahahahaha! I swear, I'm the only person on the face of the earth that just doesn't get it!? Is it that The Dude just keeps rollin' with the punches no matter how craptastic his day is going? What am I missing? The last time I was this confused, Napoleon Dynamite was still in high school and Pedro was still running for class office! (I did eventually end up voting for Pedro btw.)


It's the dialog.
You have to pay close attention to the dialog, that's why it is a classic.
The scene where Walter pulls the gun on Smokey for stepping over the line is done so well. John Goodman actually looks insane.
And yes Walter is an a*****e and a terrible friend, but that's why it is so funny. Why would anyone be friends with such an a*****e?
The whole thing about Walter watching his ex wife's dog while she is in Hawaii with her boyfriend, hilarious.
"You brought a Pomeranian bowling?"
"What do you mean brought it bowling? I'm not buying it a f*cking beer, I'm not renting it f*cking shoes, he's not taking your f*cking turn Dude"

It's funny.
One of my all time favorite movies.
My username is John Goodmans character from that film.

@Walter.Sobchak Hilarious. I didn't put your name together with JG's character! Thanks for 'splainin' me.

Dang! I gotta ask though, where are the women on this thread?!!! We need 'em for movie discussion! :D

Well, I appreciate having things 'splained to me. Now I guess I have to watch the movie again... no promises, though.

One of the funniest movies I can think of is Meet the Parents. First time, wasn't so funny. But upon repeat viewing, danged if it didn't get funnier and funnier. My hubby remains unimpressed.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
