While obviously bitch slapping someone else in public, especially if both people are famous, is stupid - I will say this: my wife has alopecia - and while she didn't shave her head, she's had times she broke out in tears in the morning because of random bald spots she finds. It really fucks with you mentally, especially if you're a woman (famous or not).

I donno if Chris Rock knew of this when he made the joke, although it's been reported Jada has been public about it; but if CR was aware, then it was in pretty poor taste.

id counter that with saying your wife has to live an everyday life, under presumably normal circumstances

Jada could hop on her 75 million dollar gulf stream and blow off the stress on a private island being waited on hand and foot, her feelings are probably a little harder to get hurt

I'm happy the Academy was able to resolve the issue for Will by giving him a statue that looks like Jada.

Lol are you saying if you were rich and famous, I could walk up to your wife and make fun of her in public, and you'll just tell her i"t's ok, I'll take you to our island"?

I agree with him that being part of jokes when your in the front row of the Oscar’s, it comes with the territory. Either way, the joke was poor taste, but she’s been a piece of garbage for a long time, so fuck her. If you’re willing to embarrass your husband with your dirty laundry in front of millions, I don’t think you get to say making fun of your haircut is over the line.
If rock walked up to her on the street and started roasting her about it that’s totally different, but comedians roast people at awards shows, that’s what they are there for.
Bottom line is these celebs need to just shut the fuck up more often than not. Maybe they can sing imagine over a zoom call again.
Also LOL at that idiot Amy schumer trying to make it about herself being traumatized in interviews about it. The narcissism in Hollywood is pathetic.

Getting roasted isn't a new thing at these events, it's basically expected. Jada should be honored she's even being mentioned because this is the biggest thing to happen to her career other then marrying Will Smith.

Just sit there, fake laugh it off and they'll be onto the next joke in a few seconds. Don't like it? Don't fucking go.

^ See I saw that joke too... and I thought that was WAY worse taste than anything Rock said...

It's not funny at all to suggest there's something going on between siblings just because they are obviously close. Jake's always been a super classy and humble guy I actually felt grossed out when I heard that too.

What would happen if he rushed the stage and smacked Amy Schumer upside the face lol

I was stumbling upon this old video of the 10th gen CTR doing a 0-60 launch.

I'm not sure if this is some launching technique, but I noticed he redlines it in first gear, lets off, and redlines it again before shifting to 2nd. Is there any reason for that? It went from 43km/h, then showed 49km/h for a split second, then back to 47km/h before shifting to 2nd... lol




It still blows my mind that a FWD can put the power down effectively enough to hit 60 mph in just over 5 sec.

I've ordered from QuattroTire before. They called after the order and said they weren't able to find the tires to ship, so they offered a free upgrade to a comparable that costed a bit more.

I found their customer service pretty good overall. Anything specific you want to know?

My Sky has had several squeeks and rattles when I bought it
I'm down to a single squeek now, the loudest and most annoying, coming from the sun visor trim / latch area, today I managed to break the trim in search of the noise

100$ later for a new trim piece, and no still no solution

Just found out that people in the Hamilton and Mount Royal region are in for a treat on April 8th, 2024 (two years from now). Once in a lifetime event. A total eclipse of the sun. I witnessed one first hand in 2017. Truly an unforgettable experience.

https://www.greatamericaneclipse.com...laces-to-view/

Just have to hope that there is no cloud cover. I took the chance when I drove down to Oregon. We were blessed with absolutely clear skies. And to clarify, I did take the special glasses off to see it. Put them back on right away after witnessing the ring effect.

Ordered from them last year. Shipping via FedEx was ground shipping, 2 tires arrived first, the other 2 the next day.

They don't come wrapped with any sort of plastic wrap or anything which kind of annoyed me as the sidewalls were scuffed, but their prices and the pre-paid credit card promo they had saved me well over $110 compared to buying tires from costco/kaltire/1010tires

I would order from them again if there were savings to be had.

Kind of old news now, but 10 year ban from Academy events.............

Aqua under the bridge.............. most people have forgotten about it by now.


I would have loved to see him arrested. It was contemplated by the police, but Chris Rock didn't press any charges.
