If I remember correctly, should be sparks, must ask the sparks lian, right boh @chamfer?

Exactly why all his movies all lose money. Who the fuck will spend money to watch a movie you didn't understand the first time?

Knn, this movie confused me for years. Don't know what the fuck the director was filming.

I'll be glad if this lawsuit just stops them from playing the damn song.

Mariah Carey was sued on Friday (Jun 3) over her 1994 Christmas classic All I Want For Christmas Is You by a songwriter who said he co-wrote a song with the same title five years earlier. In a complaint filed in New Orleans federal court, Andy Stone is seeking at least US$20 million (S$27.5 million) in damages from Carey, her co-writer and Sony Music Entertainment for copyright infringement and misappropriation, among other claims. Stone, who performs as Vince Vance with the country-pop band Vince Vance & the Valiants, accused the defendants of having illegally exploited his "popularity and unique style" and caused confusion by recording the newer song without his permission. Carey's and Stone's songs have different lyrics and melodies. Spokespeople for Carey and Sony Music did not immediately respond to requests for comment. Carey's song appeared on her album Merry Christmas, and has long received widespread play on radio and in retail shopping environments during the holiday season. It has also topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart every year since 2019, despite having been recorded a quarter century earlier. All I Want For Christmas Is You was Carey's 19th No 1 song, one fewer than the Beatles. Stone said his own song had received "extensive airplay" during the 1993 Christmas season, and also appeared on Billboard charts. It wasn't clear from the complaint when Stone first learned about Carey's song. The complaint said Stone's lawyers first contacted the defendants in April 2021 about their alleged unauthorised use, but were "unable to come to any agreement." Stone's lawyers did not immediately respond to requests for additional comment. https://cnalifestyle.channelnewsasia.com/entertainment/mariah-carey-sued-over-all-i-want-christmas-you-314366

My bet is that it's their fav FT, the irony is not lost.

A man in Singapore was seen openly urinating outside Parliament House at night. A video posted to Facebook page Complaint Singapore on Jun. 4 showed a man standing by the curb urinating on the ground just outside the entrance to the state building. According to the video's caption, the incident appeared to have taken place at around 2:30am on Jun. 4. Without a care in the world Based on the surroundings as captured on video, the incident occurred along North Bridge Road outside the stately entrance of Singapore's Parliament House. The video showed the man staring off into the distance as he urinates in between bushes in front of the Parliament House, creating a puddle of bodily waste in the soil. The video's caption read: "That's really bad! No respect! Hope he can be caught soon!" The man also appeared unbothered by or unaware of the person walking towards him who was recording his antics. It is unclear from the video whether the man was lucid or in an intoxicated state, but he appeared to be walking unsteadily. Footage put up in hopes he gets caught After he finished relieving himself, the man simply turned and walked away. He also made no attempt to conceal his actions or identity, even as cars drove past him. Some commenters questioned why the person who recorded the public urinator did not attempt to capture the man's face on video. The person who recorded the footage replied that he did not want to get the man's private parts on video, and instead hoped that the many CCTVs surrounding the Parliament House would help identify the man instead.

@socrates469bcmoi know you love all these dirty history secrets right

All the good economist don't need to make money on youtube and know spending effort on it is a waste of their resources. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZNxe_9FQAK2Z3suwaZlwpQ this guy is pretty good, but he's a 马后炮, good for historic analytics though.

This youtuber is very good, he's videos are a little long, probably for ad revenue, but his team does very good research.
