Aaron Burman's Comments

@Ginger - agreed. There's not much scientific basis for the rankings, and how could there be? Everybody has an opinion about what makes a great movie. I'm of the opinion that Ben Hur is a terrible and slow movie with some cartoony action thrown in...yet it always finds itself no where near the bottom of these lists.

The list was good for one thing: it showed other movies that lost to the ranked movies, and mentioned other movies that were arguably better. But the order of the movies listed (and the reasons why) were pretty stilted. I felt as if a couple films (Dances With Wolves and Forrest Gump) were ranked lower than necessary simply because they beat arguably better films (Goodfellas, Pulp Fiction, The Shawshank Redemption) that came out in the same years.

Again, that's just my opinion, imperfect as Buzzfeed's.

GAH! Don't play to the end!! In one of their other videos advertised at the end, they're dissecting some animal's very large eyeball! Yeesh, I haven't even had breakfast yet!

Maybe the driver DID choose the nearest spot. Imagine that, past the bottom of the diagram, is a strip-mall (or mini-mall). A store about 1/3 of the way along the strip (say the 3rd store out of 8 stores total, going from left to right as you look at the front of the stores) would be most easily reached in either parking spot 87 or 88.

I'm originally from South Dakota While in the Air Force, I once performed an honor guard ceremony in north-central Nebraska. Airman Mise, from the Boston area, had such a thick accent that I had to translate all of her food orders at the local Pizza Hut, Boston-English to Rural-Nebraska-English. I thought it was one of the most bizarre experiences in my life, but obviously it's happened to a lot of other people worldwide.

This was an extended cut scene that later became The Star Wars Halloween Horror Special, Co-starring Bea Arthur. It was aired once in Fargo, North Dakota in late October 1982, never to be seen again.

Random fact: The McDonald's in Winona, Minnesota received a couple of national awards over the years. I always had excellent service there on my commutes from Sioux Falls to Minneapolis.

I want to see a perceived happiness-in-career scale to put alongside the majors in this chart, to show how happy/unhappy or rewarding/unrewarding the different careers actually are, compared to pay. I'm asking what the results will be, because I would imagine a graphic designer living in an expensive part of the country isn't necessarily as happy as some of the others on this list.
