Ahh, fair enough. De gustibus non est disputandum!

So why not eat them when they’re still a bit green? I hate mushy, super sweet bananas, but when they’re ever-so-slightly under-ripe they’re amazing. Lightly sweet, tart, and firm.

I still haven’t gotten around to watching that. I just know that, in general, MJK’s views about his music and music in general are pretty much identical to Blow’s views of his games and games in general. I.e. “no one gets it, and if you try to get it you’re a fucking idiot, but if you don’t care, you’re also a fucking…

I swear Blow is the Maynard James Keenan of video games. He’s undeniably talented (well.. I’m sure there will be some who will deny MJK’s talent, but my point stands) but so far up his own ass he’s clearly suffering from hypoxia.

It happened to me once, and I had pretty much the same reaction as your friend. It’s such an iconic pratfall that even if you’re in pain it’s hard not to see the humor in it. In my case, though I slipped, I didn’t actually fall, so it was even easier to laugh.

That one was so subtle it almost slipped right by me.

I might not go that far. I mean, sensitivity can be a valuable trait in any creative endeavor. But obviously, the second one shares one’s work with the world at large, one needs to develop a thick skin.

One question, one observation, and one piece of moral advice. First, did this guy actually throw something at a second black comedian, or was that just a joke? Second, if his “artist friend” is really that “sensitive,” maybe he shouldn’t be at a comedy show. Finally, regardless of where anyone my stand re: Chappelle’s…

Yeah, my immediate reaction to this was that this is most definitely staged.

The weird thing in this case, though, is that (despite my initial claim that he’s “as conservative as you can get”) he’s really a strictly “no gays, no drugs, no abortion” Conservative. He’s actually a strict pacifist and a believer in social welfare, so in most ways he aligns more with liberals. It’s only on the…

I know an old guy who is as conservative as you can get, and he practically has a shrine to the Kennedys. Every other breath he’s lamenting the “death of America” with JFK’s assassination. His alternating breaths he’s demonizing Liberals for their lack of morals. If he wasn’t so goddamn old, I’d slap him upside the…

Jesus Christ... what the fuck is wrong with your friend?!

I’ve had people try to argue that “Sambo” isn’t racist, because the literary Sambo was fast! Also that “Mandingo” isn’t racist, because it’s implying that the black man in question has a big dick. They’re complimentary, therefore not racist! As if we needed empirical evidence that racists are fucking inbred, mentally…

Get better friends. That guy is a piece of shit.

Holy crap... Skadi/Camp Weedonwantcha Katie Rice is this same Katie Rice?!

Solid as Iraq!

Are you suggesting Penn is redeemable? The piece of shit beat Madonna and is friends with fucking Hugo Chavez. Fuck Penn. *edit* Nevermind. Scrolled downthread and now I see what you were trying to say.

A few years ago on Memorial Day, my dad grilled up some cedar plank salmon and some assorted veggies. I am not typically a fan of salmon, nor grilled vegetables. Despite that history, however, that was easily the best meal I’ve ever eaten. My dad is definitely a bbq master.

If he were being smart about this issue, he wouldn’t be supporting the NRA at all. The NRA is explicitly a racist organization that endorses 2nd Amendment Rights for everyone except people of color.

... a black man supporting an organization that endorses gun rights for everyone excluding black men. Sure, that makes sense.
