If you're stuck in a cycle of thumbing through streaming sites, looking up trailers, and ultimately rewatching "The Office" for the millionth time, you may want to set your sights on a smaller, choicer pool of options — like all the nominated or award-winning original series on Prime Video.

Even so, it would be impossible for the United States to formally withdraw from the pact before November 2019 unless it also withdrew from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change -- effectively thumbing our noses at not only climate change but the entire UN process, sadly not an impossible eventuality.

This narrative about an initiative that has given temporary haven and work authorization to more than 700,000 undocumented minors, the so-called Dreamers, still has critics howling about presidential overreach, about brazen nose-thumbing at the rule of law and about encouraging others to breach the borders of the United States.

Even There Will Be Blood, his previous Day-Lewis collaboration and biggest box office success (though still bringing in a fairly modest $40 million domestic), is a spectacularly idiosyncratic piece of work played in an often off-putting key, impudently thumbing its nose at conventional redemption arcs and the niceties of prestige drama.

Another United States Open semifinal had just gone awry for Serena Williams, and Williams's agent, Jill Smoller, and half sister, Isha Price, were in the corridor inside Arthur Ashe Stadium, leaning against a wall and thumbing their smartphones, oblivious to the fact that they were leaning against a huge photograph of Steffi Graf.

Picture an ill-lit makeshift studio somewhere in Cowboy Country, the smell of Bob-brand whiskey lingering in the sweaty air, Dylan thumbing through an old Rimbaud paperback while humming a grizzled version of Frank Sinatra's "The Impatient Years," Kanye in his MAGA hat drifting off for one of his studio naps.

Living up to its reputation as a disruptive, unpredictable force in the entertainment business, the streaming service not only promoted its recent acquisition of the sequel "The Cloverfield Paradox" but proceeded to drop the movie immediately after the game -- thumbing its nose not only at conventional distribution models, but NBC's grandiose postgame plans.

If you're a rereader, thumbing through your old Penguin paperback, those endless wars in "1984," during which the enemy keeps changing — now Eurasia, now Eastasia — no longer seem as far-fetched as they once did, and neither do the book's organized hate rallies, in which the citizenry works itself into a frenzy against nameless foreigners.

Facebook is not the only online people profiler, of course, but it's a prime target for strategic litigation both because of its massive size and reach (and the resulting power over web users flowing from a dominant position in an attention-dominating category), but also on account of its nose-thumbing attitude to compliance with EU regulations thus far.

It's a widely derided book, due to its blatant appropriation of familiar plots, clumsy prose, and equally naked wish-fulfillment narrative, which features an obsessive gamer and pop culture fanatic saving the world with his gamer skills — and openly thumbing his nose at everyone who ever suggested he was wasting his time by obsessively focusing on his gaming skills.

The lighter, more propulsive "What About Us" glides casually over the counterpoint between muddy, sturdy rhythm guitar and Clark's higher, more defiant, nose-thumbing lead; as Clark overdubs chattering street voices from the neighborhood he sings about, the playful, ambiguous song could be an extended comedic routine about generational warfare or a cautionary tale about gentrification.

And there was Mr. Botha on a perfect Sunday afternoon, sitting in the lobby of 14.83 Riverside Boulevard, thumbing his smartphone as he waited for someone to come and fall in love with the $1.01 million 11th-floor one-bedroom that he represents and that has now been on the market for more than four months.

" On the Senate floor on Thursday, McCaskill told the story of the 15-year-old who was trafficked, calling the company's refusal to comply with the committee's subpoena "the height of arrogance and the height of thumbing one's nose at our laws in this country and I think it shakes the foundation upon which we all sit.

While thumbing through hundreds of pages of FBI files on pop-music singers and rock groups, I found a file on the band, and, as this year marks the 19693th anniversary of the Doors' self-titled debut album, I thought it would be a good time to check out why they attracted the attention of the FBI.

For them, Trump represents the most improbable of all ascensions, one fueled by their undying loyalty, and he represents their personal sentiments about society: a thumbing of the nose at the establishment, a rebuke of the authorities and the intellectuals, a disdain for inclusion and multiculturalism, and a willingness to fight for white power and its privileges and purity.

The story is complicated because the counter-trim that Suneja had been thumbing to beat back the dog was working, and with greater effect at higher speeds, to the point that full nose-down trim would have been avoidable even if the cutout switches were not thrown, so long as the pilots stayed in the fight.

This same application of racehorse, who's-up-and-who's-down political punditry to US foreign policy helped lead us into the Iraq War, which many in the media portrayed as important for demonstrating George W.

Mr. Obama has taken great care not to express his opinions about particular candidates — at least in earshot of anyone who will leak them — and has told people around him that he wants to avoid even the slightest perception that he is "thumbing the scale" for any candidate, as he did by tacitly backing Hillary Clinton's primary campaign in 2016.

Because of the nature of these events — and because Allen seems to delight in thumbing his nose at them by repeatedly using elements in his movies and fiction that seem ripped from his own story — the big question for many is why Allen hasn't been drawn into the so-called "post-Weinstein" moment of reckoning for powerful men accused of sexual misconduct.

While it's on brand, Trump's decision to have the next G7 meeting in a place where the US government and international governments would be forced to patronize his business is perhaps the starkest illustration yet of how he's thumbing his nose not just at tradition and ethical standards but also the Constitution's emoluments clause, a little-used provision aimed at guarding corruption of presidents by foreign interests.

But their requests for no prison time — they have asked instead to perform substantial amounts of community service — could run the risk of backfiring, particularly in a corruption case in which both men were convicted of all eight counts they faced; some lawyers believe that asking to avoid prison in such circumstances is tantamount to thumbing your nose at the judge, the jury and justice.

I would say that my dad had a huge influence on me as well, because he had a 25-book encyclopedia set called Man, Myth, and Magic; when I was very small, I would find myself pulling out the books and thumbing through all the pages on astrology, and tarot, and witchcraft, and voodoo and I'd go to school with book reports on all of those things.

So this is not notable for being built outside of the U.S. in some kind of thumbing to Trump (as I said before, it was announced before we knew what we'd have today in terms of Trump's executive orders), but more for how it emphasizes that when it comes to tech, banging on about "America First" just doesn't make sense in terms of talent, or even American businesses.

Instead of actually thumbing his way along the interstate highway system, Leto mostly just fake hitchhiked with Good Morning America, tooled around the Texas Motor Speedway—not the smartest move to hitchhike on a NASCAR track, but whatever—and rode a Greyhound, where he reportedly led the bus in a 30 Seconds to Mars singalong, as if a cross-country Greyhound trip isn't rough enough on its own.

At least to the point that he'd choose "Bring Your Daughter to the Slaughter" at a Lower East Side karaoke bar at 3 AM. Everyone else picks Frank Sinatra or Blink 182, but not Fallon, who leans on the bar with a glass of sake in his left hand, thumbing through to the letter "I' in the songbook, muttering to himself like a mischievous schoolchild: "Iron Maiden… hahahahahaha.

While the story was first conceived in 2014 and thus wasn't inspired by recent events like Charlottesville, the developers have snuck in some last-minute Easter eggs that are deliberately thumbing their nose at the right, like a newspaper article with the headline "Meet the Dapper Young KKK Leader With A Message of Hope," an almost word-for-word parody of a real article fawning over white supremacist and alt-right founder Richard Spencer.

There's a good chance you read the New York Times (kudos, by the way), which means you're probably scrolling through its website, or thumbing through its app, or following its Twitter feed (along with some NYT reporters), or dropping a comment, or digesting a dozen newsletters, or buying a gift off a newly expanded Wirecutter, or baking a dish from NYT Cooking, or streaming a show recommended by NYT Watching, or generally cursing/praising its homepage redesign.

Look, maybe Benioff and Weiss didn't intend that scene where everybody dunks on the book literally titled A Song of Ice and Fire to come off as a jab at the guy who wrote the books they adapted (and that they then passed right by), but it still felt pretty uncomfortable, like a couple of teenagers thumbing their nose at their dad, who silently fumes while they make fun of how he's not cool enough, man.

And apparently Pacquiao's came this week, after Duterte's long nose-thumbing campaign against the United States and President Barack Obama (who Duterte called a "son of a bitch" in September and told to "go to hell" in October) culminated with his calling for the removal of all U.S. troops and military bases from the Philippines and blowing off reports that the U.S. will halt the sale of 24,000 guns to his government's national police over Duterte's approach to fighting drugs by calling American leaders "monkeys" and "fools" and saying he'll just get those guns from someone else, like Russia.
