“So, you see, since I’ve already ranted at things that happened this week, I might as well rant about things that haven’t actually happened...”

hiring JJ Abrams?

Kids these days are so soft. Back in my day, you weren’t done in Oregon until you died of dysentery.

Here’s an idea, don’t egregiously go out of your way to break the law. So, yeah, fuck that guy. If someone makes a mistake, I get it. I’m no fan of ruining people’s lives over dumb shit, but when you explicitly buy a device like this intended specifically to break the law, sorry, but my sympathy meter goes to zero.

Man, fuck this guy. Tolls are tolls. I drop my $4 in tolls every time I drive between I-95 and Orlando just like everyone else. Florida has a very easy to use Sunpass auto-pay toll system that is cheap and actually gets you a discount. There’s no excuse. This guy went out of his way to thumb his nose at everyone else…

I met a girl in a bar. We got dead drunk and I took her “home”. In a dark alley we shagged our brains out, then realized she was ugly as f**k. Drove her home and practically threw her off my car and hightailed out of there burning rubber. I came home at dawn, showered, laughed my ass off at myself and swore it would…

Nations is plural you dolt, like a collection of nations. Not a collection of states. The Seminole tribe is free to chose to let FSU represent them all they want. They don’t need hand wringing non-Seminoles telling them what is best for them.

The Seminole isn’t portraying the race as a group. It is portraying a specific tribe. The Seminoles don’t have to give a shit what the Mohicans think. much like the Germans don’t have to worry about being a representative for the entire white race, just Germany.

The Seminole tribe helped make the costume. I’m pretty sure this isn’t a redskins situation.

Well obviously that isn’t true. If your culture is being represented in an obnoxious “Chief Wahoo” or racist “Redskins” way, you’re definitely going to disapprove. Whether the powers that be do anything about it is a different matter.

Technically Seminoles riding horses is cultural appropriation since horses didn’t live on the American continent until Europeans brought them.

You’re right and I am wrong. Alas, still not cultural appropriation.

Do you have any evidence supporting said ‘fact’? Because I know for a fact that a former Florida State mascot was killed last year and his name was Caleb...which is probably the whitest name I can think of.

Don’t let facts get in the way of their virtue signaling!

The movie must be good because Gizmodo/i09 hates it.

I secretly hoped that one or two of the team would survive. They would flee to Tattooine and end up witnessing this:

24 has been doing that since 2001. Anyone not named “Jack Bauer” had a:

And it was just assumed by us that we couldn’t do that

To paraphrase Vader: Don’t get too proud of this technological wonder you’ve constructed. The ability to bring back dead actors is insignificant next to the power of the uncanny valley.
