“we’ve just fired 59 missiles, all of which hit by the way”

After reading reports that Trump was pimping out his models to help close business deals, it doesn’t surprise me. After all, pimping out the presidency is way better for his business deals.

So whenever a victim of domestic abuse defends herself and shoots her attacker (even in states where “stand your ground” laws mean that people who shoot strangers in public for giving them dirty looks get off), she gets prosecuted because she should have “worked within the system” to resolve the problem. But the…

Well, everything is terrible.

“I know this mostly sounds standoff-ish and asshole-ish”

Clearly this story is just feminist virtue signaling and #whitegenocide.

I mean, they’re not wrong about Trump getting conned, it’s just that they’ve been the ones doing it.

Well, he was lot more effective than the 42 German soldiers he captured...

Next you’re going to tell me that swords and bows and arrows have no place on modern battlefields...

Fuuuuuu... This is amazing work. I am speechless.

“I think we can all agree that personal metal plate armor, of just about any kind, is horribly impractical on the modern battlefield”

“There is a reason why soldiers and commander’s armor looks so similar and boring”

“having the elbow, hip, legs and feet exposed is just asking for someone cleave your legs out from under you”

Godzilla is the odd man out there - it did better than expected, made over half-a-billion dollars in theaters and is spawning a sequel. Hollywood at least certainly considers it a success. There were also big hits by the Russo bros. (from You, Me and Dupree to various Marvel movies), James Gunn (from Slither to Guardi…
