The Turtles "killed" plenty of those robot Foot soldiers. The worst the Joes or Transformers ever did was punch people (no laser ever hit a person, only equipment).

G.I. Joe and Transformers were hardly violent at all. Do you have Alzheimer's?

It was good, but you're a real life Comic Book Guy and nothing could ever please you. Not, as you'd like us to think, because of intellect or taste but just because you're a colossal asshole.

I wasn't wrong on any of the facts, you fucking moron. Well, you know what an imbecile you are. I doubt I'm the first to point it out. You should probably kill yourself.

—surprise! he's not, because it's acting—

What he weighs - even in armor - would have nothing to do with it. He used his hands, and the hand strength of someone even that big wouldn't be enough to crush a skull. Not that it matters, because weight wasn't a factor anyway, but he wasn't on top in the show either, he got up part way but not far enough - and,

The Nerdist article is not exactly convincing. So many people seem to think that if the average man could lift x amount, someone the Mountain's size must be able to lift (or exert in hand strength) that same difference. It doesn't work like that or in Olympic weightlifting (or Strongman competition) it would always

Common knowledge, at least to GoT fans. I doubt, though, that one of the tests involves crushing a man's skull. But, then, it is Iceland, so who knows?

Where was the "Fighter are you ready? Fighter are you ready? Let's get it on!"

I doubt even someone the Mountain's size could bust a man's skull like that. Despite his size - and, really, someone nearly 8 feet tall (the actors who've played him have all been well below that, especially this guy at a dwarfish 6'9") would be walking with a cane - his strength wouldn't be that great. Check out

I've never gotten that vibe from him. Ginsberg not joining in to mock someone doesn't mean anything - and it's certainly not true that he's never shied away from mocking people. He's a Jew, he knows what it's like to be on the outside. There was a time when it would have been unthinkable for a Jew to even be hired

Everyone. He's a weasel. A gay Pete Campbell.

It wasn't a joke, but no, I shouldn't.

You're imagining things. TV and movies have maybe conditioned you to think that the homophobic guy is secretly gay but in reality that's usually not the case - and, in those days, who wasn't homophobic? There was more open support for it then.

How could you not approve of his homophobia? That's obviously the last remaining shred of his sanity.

Could be. I would be okay with that explanation. We'll have to wait and see.
