Shelter Catstravaganza!

I went low-carb because Crom appeared and told me I had the soft thews of a city-dweller and made the women lament for all the wrong reasons. He then laughed and called me a newb when I asked him what thews were. 

It’s not an uncommon story - probably 90% of the drama reported on Hollywood film and television sets is related to someone being unhappy that they have to take part in a production they’d rather not. Still, though - do you have to inflict your unhappiness on other people? Is it that difficult to make the best of the…

Reading the comments ... you fucking men boys are terrible. I’m surprised half of you find anyone to fuck you. Is there really no room in your imaginations for someone who doesn’t look like you to be centered, to have a story, to have a background that was interesting? Are you that pathetic that you can’t enjoy a…

My grandpa was a doctor, flu shots became a Thanksgiving tradition. Literally instead of going around the table and saying what we were thankful for, he went around the table and gave everyone their flu shot. Incidentally, that was something I was very thankful for.

Kirk Hammett is more famous than that douche. 

I love that moment in Get Shorty when everyone is arguing over the meaning of “i.e.” and “e.g” and a very frustrated Dennis Farina just says, “I.e., e.g., fuck you.” It has a perfect cadence to it.

Exactly! And even with his last breath, he went out taking Markos down. Given the Ashford in the books died in the Ring Space during the coup on the Behemoth, this version as old pirate and man of honour is fantastic.

I could believe the idea of him willing exile himself, except for the fact that doing so means he abandoned his sister and friends, and believe his nephew was beyond redemption. That goes completely against his character arc from the original trilogy. It was character assassination of the main symbol of hope in the…

Dammit, you chucklefuck, your intentions were perfectly clear. You wanted to hurt and embarrass a total stranger because some stray gross impulse darted across your lizard brain and being a white male, you never even thought to resist or question it. You honestly expected her to find that funny or at least “laugh it…

Um...

The Downward Spiral

Unlike some other billionaires, Bill Gates has been giving a lot of money away and trying to use his resources to help some of the world's biggest problems.  Maybe we should go a little easy on him.

I mean, you say that, but what, they wrote one bad pilot episode, and then went on to make an incredibly well rated, incredibly well-received, extremely popular and very satisfying show for seasons and seasons. It isn’t like the show was a constant set of fuckups, it was some stumbling in adjusting, and then a VERY…

If it’s aiming for the realism of war, the part where you abandon the rebels to be ethnically cleansed should be interesting.

Maybe this is a good place to brag on my wife (slightly OT):

Same thing happened with my Mom years ago!

Counterpoint-she was the absolute WORST part of Smallville and you should feel bad for your horrendous take.

It was absolutely not a deus ex machina.

The entire thing was built up, foreshadowed, hinted at etc:

* Arya’s training to become a Faceless Man in the first place

I really like how he’s played him since he came back. Very world weary, like he’s so incredibly tired. And his adamant frustration at people ignoring the gigantic army coming to kill everyone. You can tell he’s just plain tired of having to convince every single person of what’s coming.

And the scene where Dany says:…
