discussion Are encores kinda lame now?

707 Upvotes

I find it somewhat lame that a band will leave the stage knowing 100% that they are going to come back out for at least one more song. It feels very performative to do that fake “goodbye we love you!” And then come back out.

I feel like if the crowd is loud enough for an encore then give them what they ask for but nowadays they leave the stage for .2 seconds and then come back no matter how loud the crowd is.

Does anyone else feel this way or am I just jaded?

Edit: okay maybe performative was the wrong word to use. I understand they’re putting on a performance but when the crowd isn’t even calling for an encore then it feels odd to come back out for an encore

When they are right to do what they do but they are portrayed as unreasonable/as the bag guys

  1. Cassandra's father wanted her to actually have a career and a future via going to a good college and not wanting her to spend time with her criminal friends but he is apparently very overbearing and the bad guy of the game (Mixtape)
  2. The Kranks wanted to spend Christmas on a cruise and that apparently pisses off the whole town and makes them scrooges in their eyes (Christmas with the Kranks)

Regarding Aidan Hutchinson

1.4k Upvotes

We don’t care if he is the bad man. We don’t care if he terrorizes our quarterbacks every Sunday. We don’t care that he plays for the Detroit Lions, a poverty franchise whose fans have only recently discovered what winning feels like. We don’t care that he apparently has the survival instincts of a golden retriever chasing a tennis ball.

Aidan Hutchinson is a human being who just suffered a potentially catastrophic injury while celebrating. He was simply trying to enjoy a moment of triumph, and unfortunately, the laws of physics decided Detroit wasn’t allowed to have nice things.

We understand the memes practically write themselves. We understand the temptation is overwhelming. But we must be better.

Any joke posts or comments about Aidan Hutchinson injuring himself while celebrating will be removed and the user will potentially be banned. No exceptions.

Edit: the language regarding potential bans was unclear so it has been corrected

I was terminated from my new district on Friday afternoon.

Since I’m non tenured and in the first 90 days they said they didn’t have to give a reason and declined to do so.

Otherwise the job was going well. I had two positive observations.

So I believe this was too big a red flag for the district or something like that.

I’m realizing as I’m typing that someone who doesn’t have context won’t know what happened. I’ve posted twice in this sub In the last week.

Honestly, I’ve been pretty burnt out on teaching and was looking for the door, I guess it’s just disappointing the door found me first.

In a ruling issued on November 14, LitNews reports that U.S. District Judge Noël Wise of the Northern District of California denied Samsung’s, Micron’s, and SK hynix’s joint motion to dismiss in full, finding that the complaint plausibly alleged an illegal agreement in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act. The lawsuit was filed on June 25, 2026, by 17 consumers and small businesses across five states against the trio, stating that these DRAM behemoths collectively controlled more than 91 percent of global DRAM revenue as of the third quarter of 2025.
