It ten days, Barbie made over 750 million dollars. It will definitely reach the one billion mark at this point and may even surpass the Super Mario Brothers movie to become the biggest movie of the entire year.
It's 10 dollars in my area for a Big Mac combo, so sue me. It's even more expensive than 15 dollars in some parts of the country.

Yeah, I'm not hopeful at all. My mother went to Japan last year and fifteen US dollar there gets you a feast. Fifteen dollars here now gets you a combo at McDonalds.

Ok, fine people and things can change. They need to change the name of their network, which as I said is offensive to many Armenians, regardless of Cenk's reasoning.. Then I have no room to bitch.
Just letting you know, the Young Turks committed the Armenian genocide. The news outlet has been asked by Armenians to change their name, but they refuse. Cenk Uygur has only just recently acknowledged the Armenian genocide of ever happening, and had previously outright denied the genocide.
Tomorrow, I go to a temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu, who originally uttered the infamous "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds," there's a movie out about Oppenheimer, and, perhaps most importantly, I am Japanese.
So beautiful.
