I'm actually not taking a stand against the government.
The RNC is due here next week.
Donald Trump is a highly controversial candidate. (due to his general awfulness and evil).
A terrorist just gunned down multiple people at a protest in Dallas.
Cleveland has a recent history of police murdering people.
It's entirely…
You might be overstating the level of effort.
It's not a very personal incident.
It's a publicly-financed incident.
All due respect would be not making gay porn jokes about the situation.
I regret my reaction, but I won't be apologizing.
Why did it turn into rape?
Because you posited it as the start of a gay porn scenario.
If you can't see how someone gets from an unwanted visit from the Feds + gay porn to rape, I'm not sure what to tell you.
Well, we expected this, even more after the terrorism in Dallas last week.
We've been joking about it for the last couple months, in anticipation.
He's part owner of a leftist bookstore and editor of several books that don't entirely agree with current US policy.
The boy is entirely harmless, possibly the most harmless person I know, but he's thoughtful and we can't have that.
No, she mentioned the bisque.
Are we talking about Steve Hunter, player of the legendary intro to Sweet Jane on Rock n Roll Animal?
Because he's, um, not cool, at all.
Dammit Dharma, quit undermining my snark!
Do you have any idea how hard it is for me to argue with a person with a BOC referencing name and avatar who is also right?
Somewhat!
Yep, he WAS always the cool one.
Now, there is no cool one.
Also, while we're here, why is Steven Tyler in a Skittles commercial? Who exactly is such a thing aimed at?
Not if Johnny Depp is involved it isn't.
Well, at the time, I wasn't excited about it.
I hadn't read the Scott Pilgrim comics. I hadn't seen Spaced. I'm not sure if I'd seen Hot Fuzz, but I don't love it.
Sure, I loved Shaun of the Dead, but who didn't?
So, yeah, my favorite pop-cult website's reviewers can influence my decisions about things I'm not already…
Actually, now that I have had some coffee and a moment to reflect, we had a much more detailed version of this conversation on another thread, featuring my lengthy disquisitions on the awesomeness of Ramona Flowers and your polite suggestion that you might rewatch at some point.
Which you clearly haven't!
Just kidding.…
Sorry, I meant to reply to uzbekestanley.
Specifically " Nobody remembers what happened to them when they were four. Those memories were all invented later in life by piecing together things other people have told them and embellishing the tale every time they tell it"
Good catch. I meant England.
I wish they'd all just make one UK team, but I realize that's a very US point of view and, after last week, less likely that ever to happen.
It's good. It's fun. It's Clooney and Zeta-Jones being movie star glamorous and super-hot at each other.
I like it a lot.
I disagree.
Zero Dark Thirty and Hurt Locker are intensely obvious exercises in US foreign policy apologia and soldier fetishism. Shitty movies covering for the director's urges; like a gritty Transformers take on Megan Fox.
Can we rasta-fy it by 10%?
but he's still Hitler, right?
(first up, thanks for the upvote and getting that I was joking when I said those really awful things about you)
Why don't you love Miller's Crossing?
You call yourself a Coen bros fanatic (and as a guy who has his Coen Bros dvds filed separate from the rest of his dvd collection, I'm right there with you). What makes…
