So are you familiar with how government works?  The problem isn’t “Washington Democrats.” The problem is Washington Republican Mitch McConnell.  Seriously, he’s the most evil mother-fucker in the government right now and if he had just a scosh more integrity than he does, we would have been rid of Trump a long time…

So this thread made me crave wings for lunch, so we ordered from BWW. I got some with the hot sauce, which were hot and tasty. I also got some with the Nashville Hot sauce, which might have been Nashville but they weren’t hot.

Me, too. I think it’ll be great.  

I’ve watched the show three times.  For a man of his position, he was a ridiculously nice guy.  Not perfect by any means, but a decent person.  

All that about they knew and didn’t know about the Titanic? I don’t care. It was plot device to cause the death of the Crawley heir and they used a little snippet to demonstrate at the outset that Robert Crawley is a good guy.  Why does that bother you so much? Is it that you don’t approve of a sympathetic portrayal…

The clothes are about 30% of why I kept watching the show. 

I’ve had my ticket for two weeks.  

No, it wasn’t a attempt to frame the “upper class” as empathetic. It was an attempt to frame Robert Crawley as empathetic and he is. He’s a decent man, despite his position and they started showing us that from the beginning. 

We always keep our Reese’s in the freezer.  That and York Peppermint Patties are the only candies that we freeze.  Unless vodka counts.

It can be yours for the low low price of $371.

That was kind of freaky.

I liked it.  I was entertained for three hours.  The movie might be flawed but a disaster it is not. 

No, I think he’s on it.  The older a person gets, sometimes the more they resemble their parents in both mannerisms and looks. I’ve seen it with me and my siblings and it’s almost freaky.

I was entertained.  Was it fine cinema? I neither know nor care.  I am not emotionally attached to the source material so there’s nothing I need to be outraged about on that score. I had fun. The three hours went pretty fast, I though. 

What would you suggest?

I guess I haven’t gotten over the way EA screwed up SimCity so, while I’m curious about the Sims, I am not sure if I want to give them any money.  

I haven’t played The Sims in years but back when I did, I spent 90% of my time building and decorating.  I’ve never played Sims 4 and this really makes me want to.  

I have no idea what that second thing is and my imagination is going wild. 

I prefer my method, as it’s much less fiddly.

I don’t if it’s in development hell, because I don’t know if it’s in development at all, but I’d kill to see the Dresden Files made into a decent tv show.
