    The Foler Farewell Thread

    Well, don't take this the wrong way, but that's patently obvious. Of course that is the default position. We wouldn't need to ask if it weren't. Foler isn't asking, is he? This election is to me a "all bets are off/reconsidered" event. To be fair, I would be for leniency in any event.

    The Foler Farewell Thread

    Look, there are all kinds of things you can say about Foler: That is he on my ignore list is not one of them. Regardless of how tired I got of the "Trust the Plan" Shtick, I think he is an overall addition to the forum. He's good for a laugh and occasionally makes a cogent point. I would...

    The Last of the Mohicans (1992)

    I hesitate to say anyone is the "greatest living actor", given what that honorific entails. It is hard to argue that he doesn't deserve it, though.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Nvidia is more than a little responsible for the stock shortage in this fall, and now cards will be super expensive because folks were too busy fighting over the election to renew the exemption. It just adds to my resolve to not go Team Green for the foreseeable future.

    I lost my pet today and I’m really sad

    Every one of these stories is terrible and heartbreaking and at the same time, we should all embrace these moments, and remember that before these endings there was great long years of happiness and laughter, and that when the time is right, there will be another opportunity for a different...

    Cobra Kai

    Look, the show is what it is. If you can't handle a show where everyone settles issues with karate fights, where a minister leg sweeps a drunk in church, and where rival karate gangs regularly engage in all-out brawls, you came to the wrong place. I mostly watched the whole drop: It was...

    She's super attractive but if we start a "chicks with huge mouths" thread, she has to go at the top. I mean, some of these later pics are distracting and not in a good way.

    New World

    Exactly: It was the pre-twitter/social media effect, where these people are influencers and effectively wanting to play their own game (Raids) that differed from what most people are playing. You also see/saw the same thing in the PvP space, where the UO crowd would come in, Devs would try to...

    There have been a number of times where the output of a selection hasn't been really apparent?, or my intent in choosing it didn't line up with the author's intent in writing/presenting it? In any event, the disconnect has only been apparent after the fact. Those are some critical consequences...

    So boys are conflict oriented because of nurture and girls play with dolls because their parents "subtly" encourage them? Can we get back to Star Wars? Edit: Sorry if this seemed like an abrupt shift but if the other was barely on topic, this was going to go far afield and wow, I just wanted...

    He is one of the two Ripperdocs in the west side of Japantown. Fingers MD, although I didn't punch him as part of the quest, was unforgiving because I punched him after. Totes refused my eddies because he didn't trust me and asked me to leave. Even removed the ripperdoc icon from my map...

    The Mandalorian

    Non-Mandorelain While it may be cliche, you can know a lot about groups and still know very little or only broad outlines about an individual, and thus I have learned to take great pains to not to extrapolate too much and use language that reflects that. Otherwise, you open yourself up to...

    I chose to not punch him, and then punched him after, before I knew about the hover jets. Now I am a sad. :| I haven't even been back to look to see what is going on in his office because I don't remember where it is. Will definitely not be punching again on my next playthrough.

    The Mandalorian

    I don't think the problem is "women". I think Chuk is incorrect to put that general a label on it. The problem with Star Wars is progressive politics and Disney deciding they wanted to expand the fan base in a different direction, even if it meant burning some bridges with the old one. It's...

    The Mandalorian

    I don't disagree: There might be one or two but it speaks to the larger part of the agenda, which is to end the previous era and jettison the old fanbase in favor of a new one. Invariably Marxists don't build new things, they invade existing institutions, hollow them out, wear the skins like...

    It's unproductive, particularly in the social sciences, to make blanket statements like that. Men *tend* to get it and women *tend* to not get it or care about it because of the things that drive us. Let's not quibble about who does or doesn't based upon hard lines. It's an individual...

    That's why they call V a mercenary: Because really it's *you* that is making the choices for him/her to be the killer or the thug or the white knight. It's almost like the calls were coming from inside the house the whole time. Just because the easy ones, or the shortcuts, or the ones that...

    Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)

    The original story was written such that the parents were wishing for their son who had been killed in the Boer War(?) would return, IIRC. So it was an old known story at that point, I believe.

    I got angry as well but the point is these aren't choices to make: These are memories of what Johnny did that you are reliving.
