I don’t live near Albuquerque, so I can’t really comment on that, but in my experience “cage fighters” tend to be pretty chill. It’s the bad apples that make the rest look bad.

Yes, yes, I know. #notallcagefighters

Yeah I agree.

If they’re smart, which I think they are sometimes, they’re going to realize the risk with Brandao is not worth the reward. He’s not profitable enough to risk the War Machine levels of crazy he’s capable of.

I kid of course, but different strokes for different folks. At some point someone has den that. I make no judgment.

This. It’s one thing to be hit with a weapon. It’s another to be hit with a weapon by someone that knows how to put power into their strikes.

As an MMA fan, I hope he loses his career.

It’s one things to make a mistake, but this guy was waving a gun around like a psychopath. He needs to face consequences. He needs to learn that he has something to lose if he goes around acting like a batshit crazy thug.

He’s dangerous and needs to be put in line. In the very…

Most people get into MMA because they enjoy smelling a sweaty Brazilian dude as he tries to strangle them unconscious.

I know that’s why I got into it.

Well, it’s just one guy who is considered a bad apple in the MMA community. This guy was an idiot and deserves prison time.

Well, I lol’d. Good job.

One fighter got a 5 years suspension for testing positive for marijuana. Despite the fact that it’s not a performance enhancing drug, the athletic commission comes down hard on anyone caught using MJ.

Oddly enough the opponent of the guy who was suspended poped for steroids and got a lighter suspension.

Yes, it is…

So I’ve been paying limited attention to this, but here’s how I understand the timeline of the firing of Alison Rapp.

1. GamerGate, self proclaimed champions of free speech and enemies of censorship, find out something involving boobs is be changed when the game is brought to North America.

2. GamerGate targets Alison…

I’m not super invested in this fight, but I often notice that people who identify as MRAs or conservatives oftentimes try to downplay or dismiss claims of misogyny, homophobia or racism against non whites.

What do you think of those people? I find they complain about political correctness when there are claims of…

From a a marketing/business standpoint, the difficulties of adapting A Song and Fire and Ice really help the profitability of the series in the long run.

GOT is enormously successful, but the story has already caught up to and surpassed the books. The show will naturally diverge from the story in the books.

If and when…

I really like Drive. The atmosphere and the understated nature of the main character are compelling. Didn’t see Only God Forgives, but I am told I’m not missing anything.

I haven’t waded through the comments enough to see if anyone has posted this.

The bottom line here is Hollywood casts people they think will be a draw at the box office. The usually cast someone who they think will pull audiences in. Scarlet Johansson has a reasonable amount of success in action roles, so the logic of…

It was probably when you called him tone deaf and privileged. Fauxcused was being very respectful and actively agreeing with you. He was trying to engage you in polite conversation. All you managed to do was act like a sanctimonious asshole.

Here’s a little advise. In this world it doesn’t just matter if you are right…

Out of curiosity, what part of the Major’s character design do you think indicates she is white?

I agree. They are held to a much lower standard. If I jumped on someone’s back and it resulted in that person having a heart attack and dying, I would go to prison.

Worse off, when confronted on their actions, they try to deflect blame by insisting they are the victims, as if holding them accountable somehow is some…

I get worked up over police (or anyone) murdering people.

You know, different points of view aside, I really agree with this. It really seems the filmmakers just had a boner for showing death and destruction. Portraying Superman as a heroic character was just a chore they were forced to do.

Also, I apologize for misunderstanding what you said about flying away.

We may differ…

You can argue about his methods, but I don’t think you can argue he wasn’t trying to stop the deaths, because that is literally the only thing he’s trying to do in the end of MOS.

As for Zod, well, there wasn’t really a prison that could hold Zod. There was no Krytonite to depower him. Sticking a finger in his eye or…
