Only the strawberry part.
Only the strawberry part.
I'm 36 and this is still one of my favorite shows. It's one of the few shows from my childhood I can go back and watch and still find entertaining. I binge it every few years (usually when I'm sick in bed) and the jokes are still funny to me and the characters wonderful. Yes, of course it's melodramatic—it's a sitcom!…
Dar was never a "father figure" to Quinn. It's been pretty well established from the beginning that Dar basically brainwashed Quinn as a kid to turn him into a black ops killing machine. Their relationship has always been shown as fraught with difficulty.
Except for Frederick Douglass, of course, who is being recognized more and more!
That's more like it!
They did make her lose weight and put her on a strict exercise regime. But if you watch the documentary about her and her mom (which I highly recommend!) you can see clearly how unhealthy her lifestyle was and how much of an impact that was having on her. I think her smoking was more likely to contribute to her heart…
Sense8. Or does that not count since it's on Netflix?
It depends on how you define the covenant. There are certainly sects of Christianity that espouse the punishments of the Old Testament because they were not explicitly contravened by the New Testament. And far-right Christian terrorists absolutely subscribe to the idea that the punishments of the Old Testament still…
For some reason comments are showing up for me haphazardly but if you can see the comment claiming the Koran advocates throwing gay people off of buildings and that's where ISIS got their idea from - that's total BS. The Koran doesn't advocate throwing gay people off of buildings or any particular punishment - just…
EXACTLY the same penalty as in Christianity: they should be put to death. I'm not arguing here that Islam is great, or better than Christianity - I'm an atheist so I'm not a huge fan of any organized religions. But I also don't find any religion terrifying because most Muslims and Christians are decent people just…
I think you misunderstood what I was saying in the post. I'm talking about the disconnect between the teachings of Jesus and Muhammed and the religions that espouse to follow those teachings. For the times they lived, they *were* both progressive. Muhammed taught that women should have similar rights to men in a time…
The difference is that the fundamental beliefs of Islam are *not* terrifying - they've been inaccurately portrayed as such. There are Muslims who believe in killing all people who don't agree with them, just as there are Christians who believe in killing all people who don't agree with them. Both of these groups have…
Hate to break it to you Lena, but your "persona" is you. It's not an apology if you don't actually own what you did.
I loved this show! I guess it did have a unique sense of humor that wouldn't do it for a lot of people, but I literally laughed out loud every episode. (There was a lot of British humor in it, so maybe it helps that I lived in England for 6 years?) And don't act like you dropped coverage because the show got "middling…
The "life-changing decision" thing also plays heavily into the anti-choice idea that having an abortion leaves a woman irreparably scarred. For someone who claims they are pro-choice, Lena sure gives the other side plenty of fodder.
Maybe he's pro-choice for himself but not his partner? :-/
I see what you did there.
How do I get on a Hollywood pay scale? I can be a crappy comedy hack and I'm better looking than Jimmy Kimmel. I've been waiting for him to go away since the Man Show first came on the air, but he keeps showing up and doing things and getting paid for it.
Don't mess with biologists, man. Even a crappy biologist has the technical skills to genetically engineer super-viruses. Unfortunately, it isn't possible to direct the super-viruses to only kill the stupids of the world and I don't want to kill everybody. Damn my bleeding heart! *shakes fist forlornly for the utopia…
I'm a teaching assistant working on my PhD. My current plan is to graduate and fight my fellow biologists to the death for the last few jobs available. Most biology research is funded by government grants so I expect the number of jobs to decrease even more with Trump in office. Thanks, America! Maybe you'll…
