Can someone explain to me what the purpose of the electoral college is if say in Florida if someone wins by 1% they get all 29 Electoral votes? What is the point of having multiple votes per state?

It baffles me too, here in Canada our names on the voter registry from your Taxes I believe. Either way if it’s not you can get sworn in at the polling station. It’s incredibly easy to vote, most polling stations are within minutes of peoples houses. Voting is consistent across the country. Early voting and Absentee

How can the so called world’s greatest democracy have such a terrible voting system?

Honestly as a Canadian , I think the slavish devotion to the text of the constitution is the downfall of the US. I’m not arguing the merits of having a constitution but it seems like the US bows down to something written 200 plus years ago without any thought to the times in which it was written.

It’s show that I found was wildly inconsistent. That first season held so much promise, it was 6 episodes but the story telling was focused and that first episode was creepy. Reading about some of the things Darabont had planned for Season 2 made it seem like a better show.  I think the constant change of showrunners,

I think what stands out to me when watching older horror or any movie really is how natural the colour scheme is. I’m really tired of digital colour grading the whole frame. I always find it refreshing to see a post 2010 movie that has a natural colour scheme. 

I’m baffled by this prepaying of taxes, why would anyone send money to the government to pay what they might owe a few years in advance? What advantage is there to that?

None of it makes sense, why would anyone send the government a check for say a few million , just in case in 2 years you owe money. What advantage is there to that?

You could also take a tube of toothpaste mix it with some vanilla icecream and get the same effect. 

Damn you Jimmy, I have something in my eye now. 

I’m not American but is prepaying your Taxes a thing people do in the US?

I wonder will this include the movies?

I’m a straight male but I can usually tell the appeal of some men. I don’t understand the appeal of Blake Shelton ? He just seems like a bloated scruffy dad type. 

This is such a bizarre story. First let’s assume the laptop was real, what was wrong with it that it had to be repaired? Why did the repair shop even look into the owners e-mails etc? Rudy claims to have produced text messages, where did they come from? I don’t know if I even believe that there is a laptop, I’m

I think the show really needed one more episode prior to part 2 of the Two Faces. Something with some mystery but more character work.

On second watch it’s clear that the kids locked Dani in the closet because the doll indicated that the Lady was on the move

It seems like the dolls were controlled by the doll face boy. I think he placed the dolls to warn Flora where the the ghosts were. I don’t think Viola woke every night which is why the doll was so important to warn them. 

But I think the issue with Miles is that he tried several other ways to get home. The accident, the fight, and it took a more extreme measure to get them to send him home.

One thing I have to disagree with the author on with Bly is the notion that the haunting was ambiguous. It’s pretty clear in the 1st couple of episodes that the hauntings are real. Especially when it comes to the lady of the lake, look at the episode where the kids are keeping Dani occupyed because she is out after

No spoilers but I will say I thought the finale for Bly was much better then the Hill House ending.
