what relevancy does 'how many people are talking about this' have, critically? it's a good movie that lots of people watched, it's a good movie that didn't make too much of a splash---the critic watched it though, all they need to do is review the movie, not do haruspicy about it's future cultural weight and what the studios, executives, and production team are going to do about that sum of money they collected or failed to collect

I've heard of the practice, but TIL the proper name for it.
its a 10 cent word for sure
this is why we need matt back on chapo, to teach me words like haruspex and hhyswixw
this is welsh
Haruspex would he a sick name for w black metal band if it hasn't been taken yet
There are a couple of haruspex in magic, but I thought it was just a word for "wizard". You draw a card when other creatures die, so it is even doing the thing, as well
I found out what the word meant when Hvomverguy did his Pathologic video
