Long title, I know. Here’s some more context; I was watching a video with a rather famous tinkerer/fabricator guest, where the person who was hosting the show (a fellow fan of the famous person) was agreeing and following along with what they were saying.

This sounds like a normal interaction between guest and host, but it goes beyond that. The host then begins emphatically agreeing with the famous person, going so far as to say the people who disagree are idiots, misinformed, wrong, etc. The guest then asks them why they think that, and the host (in so many words) essentially says “because you think so too, right?”. The host then says “no, it’s a matter of opinion, everyone who is into what I’m into should try things out to find out what works for them.”. The host then sticks to what seems like more tame and garden variety questions for the guest, having been outed as someone who doesn’t really know anything about the subject, and was only agreeing with the host because it ingratiated himself with him, and made him seem special.

The host later puts a video up in his personal YouTube saying that the guest’s opinion on what’s the best thing is actually right, tries to backpedal on what the guest said to make it sound like the host himself was right, and constantly refers to the situation with “we” statements that make him and the guest seem like authorities on the subject, while elevating himself (and the guest) above all others.

Tl:dr person agrees with bossman because they think bossman is right, but doesn’t know why/is incorrect in their way of thinking. Kind of like King Louie in The Jungle Book, or Archibald Snatcher in The Box Trolls.

Just a heads up, the Walmart on Smoky Hill and Buckley is having a huge clearance sale right now. A lot of the refrigerated goods are on a steep discount and some of the none perishables are as well.

And by SAR books I’m not talking about “Fundamentals of SAR” or “Lost Person Behavior”. I’m talking about entertainment/leisure books like “When You Find my Body” and “The Cold Vanish”. I’m waiting on another book and need to fill some time before it comes in!

(Preferably audio books, though I like print too. I listen to them at work)

Just bought my first ever CR-V from EchoPark. I think I got a fair deal, but I’m a little paranoid about it I guess. Also, are there any upgrades or mods that would be worth getting? Thanks!

Just as the title states, I’m looking at these two cars tomorrow. Provided they’re both good, I have quite a choice to make. Do I go with the newer Honda that has better interiors and MPG and lower miles, or the older but more reliable Toyota? Both have clean CarFax, both are within my price range, and both are at the same EchoPark.

I’m searching for a movie that I think might have Don Cheadle or maybe Denzel Washington in it. I saw a clip of it on TV maybe 16-17 years ago. I only remember one scene, and possibly the premise. The main guy (I think) has escaped prison or some kind of confinement, and breaks into a house. When he’s in the house, the woman living there confronts him. He somehow gets her to back down/possibly takes her hostage. He then spies a pizza on the counter, says he “hasn’t had some in a long time,” and reaches across for it. The woman reacts thinking he’s going to assault her, thinking the “some” was a woman, but is relieved when he grabs a slice of pizza. While he eats it, he smells something funny and looks down to see a dogfood bag. He looks worried and asks the woman “where’s your dog?” Through a mouthful of pizza. She replies she doesn’t have one, which tips him off to it being a bomb. He gets himself and the woman out of the house before it explode. That’s unfortunately all I can remember and Google/Google AI is not helpful

I’m looking for a chest rig that’ll fit me a little more adequately than what I have now (a no name cheapy from Amazon). I’m 6’1” and am fairly muscular with a 43” chest. I want something that is wide and purpose built, that can carry my radio and a couple of other things (spare light, gloves, etc) that covers my chest. I don’t want to look like I’m in full battle rattle, but I do want something that looks less like an after thought. The one I have now is almost comically small on me, and a couple of guys have joked that it looks like I stole it from a kid (despite it looking normal on an average size guy). Any suggestions?
