    Breaking Bad

    That's what I was thinking in the last 5 minutes of the episode. "Wow, Clan Rednecks can't shoot for SHIT".

    Futurama Season 7

    Walking across the oceans but being able to steal camper marshmallows was silly. Fry's death loop was funny, but silly. But it's like the MST3K song, "Just say to yourself it's just a show, I should sit back and relax!" I'm not saying it was a bad episode. It wasn't. It was a sentimental one...

    Business Ethics - Companies that you refuse to do business with

    I wish I could say I boycott Wal-Mart on principle. But I don't. I don't go to wal-mart because it's full of DREAMERS, American Inventors, and it's built like a giant barn. I feel like a cow inside a wal-mart. I can't shake it. Every time. moo. I can't take Target either. So much red. So much...

    Sports writer kills himself, leaves behind website describing how and why

    Yep. Marx himself is fine, if a bit depressing to read. It's his self appointed Priests that are annoying as all shit. Dumar brings me to a more intimate understanding of my Pagan ancestors. And I also understand why they sometimes upside-down crucified those smug shitheads. For this I...

    War with Syria

    Yeah, I mean that's fair. You can't argue with results. I don't even think it's a stupid opinion to have. It's just a disagreement. And my buddy "got it", he just thought I was making too much out of too little. It's kinda like the Patriot Act / NSA shit. Well -- what did you expect...

    Futurama Season 7

    I thought it was nice. It was a sweet, soft landing. But people talking about it like it was on the level of Jurassic Bark is beyond me. It was either that or Bender explodes the universe and the series ends with him saying "oops".

    War with Syria

    Maybe you're right. Maybe there are people who haven't paid any attention to it and assume that "the rebels" are an america-friendly populist supported option. The funny or die skit, just by existing, seems to point to that. It's hard for me to believe that, but I have to admit that I don't...

    Best mind blowing movie.

    I'm sure people have thought about it. But David Lynch films don't really count. Those are art pieces more than anything else. There's an expectation that it's going to fuck with you in some way or another. That's the entire point. It's like watching Glass' Koyaaniskatsi and being surprised...

    War with Syria

    So it would seem. The spasms of a dying empire. It's particularly frustrating because it doesn't have to be this way. Look at those polls if you like, or just talk to someone. The majority of Americans can see this for what it is. That's something new. There's a guy at work I talk to who...

    Business Ethics - Companies that you refuse to do business with

    A local gas company. They don't understand what a contract is. They'd just send out a truck to fill the tank whenever they felt like it, so I decided that I'd just pay them whenever I felt like it. It was a thing until I got ahold of the regional manager, read him my contract, and...

    Dredd 2 (2026 Confirmed!)

    Dredd rules. Yes it was a fairly paint-by-numbers action movie.That's why it rules. It's so fucking simple. You don't need a billion dollars of CGI. You don't need superheros questioning their sexuality. You don't even need to save the world (again). All you need is a frowny face, balls...

    War with Syria

    If you remember early to mid during his campaign, Obama wanted to invade Pakistan. When he started to get better poll numbers, and they started to think he had a real shot at beating Hillary, he said less and less about it. It's not that Obama is hawkish that comes as a surprise, it's that...

    War with Syria

    It's the committee that redrafted the President's imperial demand, so yeah... they have to vote on that to kick it out to the rest of the Senate. Of course at this point even if a resolution fails decisively I expect Kerry and Obama to use this one vote as proof of Congressional approval and...

    War with Syria

    I have those feels. I could not bring myself to vote for a man named Burr. I know it's completely stupid but when it came time to make the little mark next to his name I was just all, "No. There is no way a man named Burr gets my vote as a Senator from my State". Bad juju. It's like...

    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    Hamsterdam is about as close to a realistic and honest consideration of the multifaceted challenges of drug legalization as you're gonna get in television short of a documentary/political piece. It's not close to perfect, but it's more honest than a political piece would be and more useful than...

    War with Syria

    The only one there is is that we don't want to be facing the situation that we face with Korea in Iran in 5-10 years. Also, oil and jews. That's what it has to be because nothing that they've said makes any fucking sense so you have to look at what they're not willing to say. For being the...

    War with Syria

    He pretty much legit despises Israel to begin with and one of the things holding him in check has been the looming threat of U.S. intervention. If that is no longer a threat then... why not. If Russia can't stop the War Machine from rolling over him (remains to be seen, their implied threats...

    Breaking Bad

    Hank serves a different master and of the three Hank is theleastbad. But Hank is exactly the sort of zealot that Walt is. It takes a crook to catch a crook and all that. Hank being the least bad doesn't make him good, imho. But yeah if you're gonna root for someone, you root for Hank...

    Breaking Bad

    nah, fuck him. In the end he proves himself to be just as bad as Hank and Walt. Jesse is the only one in the entire show who even had the option to break the chain, and he chose revenge instead. Edit: Which I'm not even bitching about. That's exactly right. Or at least it was one...

    War with Syria

    So to recap: Obama, after looking at the focus group reports, has a stroke and decides to treat military intervention as more than his personal responsibility -- he kicks it to Congress. Two days later while Congress is debating the issue and the public is distracted by his sudden and welcome...

    There is nothing shitty about a wooden bumper. Bumpers are just aesthetic anyway. With how big cars are and how those bumpers are affixed the the bodies, it's not like they really serve to divert any force. I wrecked a bug car once. That car sheared apart. That's some quality...

    War with Syria

    If only congressmen are allowed to see the reason for the war then the solution is simple. Give those congressmen guns and parachutes and have them be the only ones allowed to prosecute their police action.

    God Bless Him but I don't think Eomer has ever met this particular brand of scumfuck. This may be a particular sort of low class American scumfuckery. Something was going on with that woman, and for sure the boyfriend. It could have been a lot of things and "derps gonna derp" is definitely...

    I've found that playing with your ding dong really takes the edge off. But you have to pace yourself. If you play with it too much then it stops being special.

    War with Syria

    Well I'm not even saying that it's wrong of him to demand Congress share the responsibility of the decision. I'd say that's exactly right. But he's basically sent them a proposition of, "Either Crown me or lets talk about something else". He doesn't have the redneck gravitas that Bush did...

    Could it be any more obvious Obama wants out and that he wants Congress to take the PR hit?
