Elf.
Once you’ve seen the first 3 minutes and get the premise, then the entire rest of the film is so predictable in its jokes and situations that I derived absolutely zero pleasure from watching it and it just grated the entire way through.
Films can be funny because the initial premise leads to really entertaining, unexpected or clever situations… or a film can super straight up and shallow in its humour.
I really don’t get why Elf is so incredibly popular.
My 2012 MacBook Pro has exactly the opposite behaviour on a clean install across multiple distros. The brightness keys do nothing until after a suspend, then work fine until the next reboot. Never found a fix.
Yeah, I was a huge fan of that person going to that length, and saying they’d argued with their girlfriend about it, haha

Confusingly both. The name is from the red panda, but the icon is absolutely a fox!
This article immediately had me searching in confusion over whether the logo is a fox or meant to be a panda! What is your logo? Fox or red panda?
I was thinking the other day how much cooler flap displays at stations and airports were compared to modern displays.
Such a nice interface between computer control and a purely mechanical display. Watching them update, flipping through all the variables to land on the right one, and then clearing was so cool.
I miss the noise they made too. Haven’t seen one for like 20 years now.
This is the truest animal comic since “No take!! Only throw“
