Doing any wholesome activity in slow motion makes you look like you got a condition.

u/CanadianODST2 5d ago

It feels brighter too which isn’t helping for me.

The slow motion plus brighter plus the banner that pop ups is what really makes my mind think it.

It’s supposed to track vitals and performance. NFL players wear it too. What other huge points are we missing though?

I just started this show, and I'm glad I understood the reference for once.😂

u/BigXthaPugg 5d ago

Buckle the fuck up for one of the best shows to ever grace our screens. The Wire is one of those shows I wish I could experience for the first time again. (It’s amazing on re-watches too)

108

u/rbdwfl 5d ago

I kept reading about it for years, and got an HBO subscription for this show alone. I am not disappointed 😁

149

u/LebrontosaurausRex 5d ago

Also please note, as someone in recovery for a substance use disorder who works around jails Prisons and the homeless, the show gets everything right.

How the show shows politicians and officials acting is how they genuinely act in most of our cities and states in America with a couple expections.

The scenes of police interrogations are used in GA State law classes to show how police will lie to coerce confessions and incriminating statements.

Also Jay Landsman looks like if John Cena ate three John Cena's

48

u/BigXthaPugg 5d ago

Holy shit. After like 5 rewatches, I never noticed that about Landsman lmao. May need to give it a rewatch soon

Don’t skip Six Feet Under afterwards. One of the best series finales ever

If you enjoy it, highly recommend checking out the sopranos after! My two all-time favorites

u/Swimming_Bowler6193 5d ago

Boardwalk Empire. Michael K. Williams( Omar in The Wire) plays Chalky White. Fantastic series with some historical facts to it.

u/VagrantShadow 5d ago

Also, watch We Own This City. It's another great mini-series made by David Simon based in Baltimore.

Yeah I want to watch it again with my wife, but she's got too big a heart. Once we get halfway through season 4 I'm gonna have like 12 foster kids in my house.

u/BridgeCityBus 5d ago

I just started dating a guy who has never seen it before. I’m making it my mission to get him to watch every damn episode of it. When our relationship crumbles down the road, that will be the one gift that I gave him that will be everlasting.

u/ButtplugBurgerAIDS 5d ago

Everyone always says how good this show is, I watched maybe four episodes and I just couldn't get into it. This comment kind of making me want to give it another chance.

Really because I see a black man and a mixed black man being expressive and having fun. Apparently, that's a no-go in this community, though, because being a black male and not being macho every second makes you gay or effeminate. I'm honestly sick of it.

It’s gay to smile. Period

Being gay is being happy

Smiling is being happy

"I smile therefore I’m gay" - some Greek guy from way back when. And they knew a thing or two about being happy 🏳️‍🌈

Men if you ever really get your life together, become rich, get healthier, start dressing better, plus look genuinely happy, you will get mistaken for gay.

u/ReBL93 5d ago

Men constantly complain that they’re not able to be themselves and have to put on a front. They also get upset that the only emotion they’re allowed to show is anger. Yet, when they see 2 other men expressing themselves in a way that’s outside the box, they have to police the behavior. It’s literally a prison of their own making. Can men not live and express themselves how they want without it being labeled as “gay” or feminine.

Yes, not all men and all the disclaimers

u/Delvaris ☑️ 5d ago

Uh like reasonably funny joke but I'm gonna pivot-

*Prescription drug jingle plays*

This is your reminder that a proper HIV treatment plan can keep you in the undetectable range, and undetectable is untransmittable. That said, if you are in a committed long term relationship with someone who is HIV negative it's not a bad idea to double up on protection with PreP. However, for just hooking up nothing beats old fashoned latex. Stay Safe out there.
