Only where PF  was mostly amusing, well written gibberish (outside Sam Jackson's character, who made a few points), the dialogue in IB  is used to create extreme discomfort and tension that keeps you on the edge of the seat.  And it's not hype - the guy who plays the head villain deserves an award.  
 
My only problem with it was Tarantino's use of Western, Disco and dissonant orchestral waves reminiscent of There Will be Blood  all in one movie.  Too many disparate styles there at once, IMO.

1.  Be more gratuitously and excessively hostile.
 
2.  Devote time to reminisce about the heyday of the chillwave movement.
 
3.  Debunk the "Back to Sleep" movement and/or expose the myth of lactose intolerance.
 
4.  The whole master race thing.

 Any recommendations will be greatly appreciated!

Try the Nordstrom house brand.  They wear well and aren't too expensive.  If you're tall, buy the next size up.

of course we all understand why you read it to imply a lack of thrust and an early fall back limply to earth.
 
simple loss in translation is all.
