Nope. No. Can sorta see what they were going for, but you just can’t name someone for the thing that brought their death. I wouldn’t want a plane called Ronnie van Zant, I wouldn’t want a car called The James Dean!, I would be very hesitant to get on a German train called the Anne Frank.

I’m sorry you have personal experience with this terrible scenario and I appreciate you sharing. I hope for the best for everyone involved in this story also, even though I acknowledge that it affects more people than it had to.

I’ve also dealt with depression and suicidal ideation for most of my life, including some very awkwardly frank discussion of it with some other kids at, like, 10, in woodshop, which I half remember for how embarrassed I felt half wondering where the fuck were the teachers? I was a messed up kid obsessed with death and…

Thank you for the input!

Ooo, that sounds good. I might pick up some watermelon and blueberries to add to my protein smoothie.

I’d have more sympathy if that other news story hadn’t JUST happened. An innocent died there too, there’s less than a week old precedent.

Who killed an innocent human being.

Granted, I can’t say for sure, but I imagine being hit by a car is VERY MUCH part of the plan when you jump off a highway overpass. If you wanted to die from the fall, you’d go to a high building. This, I imagine, went PRECISELY the way it was supposed to, but with a very different outcome than they were envisioning.

So who thinks Spacey is on Feldman’s list?

This is days after kids got arrested for dropping a 20lb rock off an overpass, killing a person. This kid presumably deliberately set out to be hit by a car as they jumped. What did they expect a 100lb body to do to the car they landed on? I know they’re twelve, I know they’re not in the right frame of mind, but this…

If you check out, I believe, Confessions of a Superhero, about some of the people who dress up for tourists outside the Chinese Theater in LA, there’s a guy (the guy who dresses as Batman) who makes similar completely delusional, obviously false claims. Only Seagal is a successful movie star, instead of a…

You’ve got an issue with “Nubia”, but don’t find “WONDER WOMAN” a little on the nose?

I feel like judging black people for eating friend chicken is in its final throes, because who the fuck doesn’t love friend chicken? Haha, you like delicious food. Good one. It’s absolutely time for watermelon to follow suit, because it is such a fantastic food. My mouth just kind of filled up with saliva reading…

Now, it could just be that they speak so passionately about it as a way to make me feel comfortable, but I doubt it

I was shocked how well Blacula holds up the first time I saw it. William Marshall brings great pathos and gravitas to what could’ve easily been nonsense. Instead, Prince Mamuwalde deserves a place among the all-time great on-screen vampires.

Also, a good rapper:

During Halloween I’d see them, on occasion donning blackface, though not always, shouting “OK!” with a “pimp cup” in their hand, shaking a dreadlocked wig (So what if it was a generic “Bob Marley” wig?), relishing the stereotype they got to play.

I’m glad you took me up on debating the movie, because it gave me an excuse to watch it again! Your interpretation is a particularly dark and pessimistic one, and I disagree completely. Certainly she is Pandora, but what message gets repeated? Hope remains.

Neat. I thought Beyoncé would be busy making mommy moves.

PlayStation? That’s wack.
