I disliked Rian Johnson since I finished watching The Last Jedi. I won't go too far into why that was (some of his ideas could have worked better if he committed to them instead of yoinking them back by the end credits), but suffice it to say that because of the 7-8-9 back and forth whiplash and the "Your Snoke Theory Sucks" Twitter snark toward the audience (yes a lot of Star Wars fans are terrible, but come on), I only saw Glass Onion because my wife really, really insisted I gave it a try.

I concede that Rian Johnson writes excellent contemporary mysteries and I enjoyed the entire run of the movie and look forward to also seeing Knives Out now. I was truly pleasantly surprised. It doesn't hurt that Daniel Craig gave a weird but impressive delivery and really sold the character he played.

      I fucking hate math in a vacuum, but dabbling in CG shaders is the perfect combo for me of visual element + rapid feedback + I just like games. Lots of trig and vector bullshit, but it's actually fun because it turns into pretty things.

        I hated math until I took a geometry class in university and we didn't have any numbers, it was great sketching stuff and writing it out.

          Definitely liked geometry most out of all the math classes. Just clicked better with my extremely visual/spatial brain than all the numbers did.
