Not sure what you want to do with this, but Stupidmonkey and I were playing out stunty match and had an issue. First half goes normal, no scoring but I had a couple good bomb hits that put some of his guys in the dugouts. Second half starts, I lob a perfect bomb into his cage, KO or inj to...

ZP and I were able to do a very close to spot on replay of the first half and finish out game. There was an issue with my stunty game with Monkey which I will detail in that thread.

Monkey and I should sort ours out tonight, once I fix the ZP situation.

What time are you home in the early evening ZP?

This is actually how I feel about it. The surveillance state was inevitable, simply as a function of the information age. The time table just got moved up when 9/11 greased the wheels. Now that it is essentially here, the focus needs to be on how it is controlled and administered, because...

For all the negative things people want to say about Coulter, she does understand math a lot better than her fellow conservatives. She called the presidential race correctly long before anyone else did, though she had to backpedal on her statement to tow the party line. And Hannity is an...

Depends on how traditionalist you are and if you are a one and done kind of person. My upbringing has programmed me to assume my first marriage will be my last and that unfettered trust is the foundation of all long term relationships, so aside from keeping separate bank accounts for personal...

I am elated as a fan of comedy.

No, but ultimately most privacy laws have proven to be fruitless. They either get outright ignored (see Nixon, Reagan, Bush 2) or circumvented by legal manipulation or stoking fear in the general populace (Bush 2, Obama, LBJ) to get them approved. And lets be realistic here. If even a...

I am sure a lot of people felt the same way about the printing press, too. Or radio. Or television. Or cell phones. Unless you hit the reset button on civilization, you cannot roll back the tech clock. And the government tabulating existing data sitting in places is a lot different than...

Unless you want to scrub every fucking router and ISP between you and your point of purchase, it IS inevitable. Unless you want to go all Amish and shun the internet entirely, you are going to have to accept that there is a data trail out there that you have no control over. Honestly I am far...

Until you are at the "lets move in" point, footing the bill for dates and entertainment is fine and all you should be paying for. You can write that off as being an old fashioned guy and no one's ego gets bruised. Don't lend out money at any point, unless you are headed down the engagement...

As I have been saying, the real person who needs to fry for this is whoever approved giving this jackass his clearance. Hope he likes being a ballerina, because when they ship him to Gitmo he is going to be the one working the pole for a change. Anyhow, as a liberal I am disappointed at how...

Hey, compared to what Melrin and General Klansman do in the main thread, the liberals in here are being positively polite.

This could really turn it around for Van...... I mean Superman. Superman is a hard character to write for, especially in an action context. Thats why the better stories with him are more cerebral, like Kingdom Come or Allstar.

He was Lumie Lite while Lumie was busy stocking up his bunker full of ramen noodle packs and chainmail armor for the lizard takeover in 2012. The dude is a self described Libertarian, which should technically mean he doesn't belong in a conservative thread anymore than he would a liberal circle...

Edit- Just so we are clear, I really wish we had real privacy again, but the cherry has been popped on that one. I feel that the best use of public grassroots outrage is to make the best of a bad situation, which means tons of oversight and byzantine levels of administration to prevent it from...

Not only that, but they don't even have to do it directly. They can just "accidentally" slip your furry porn surfing history to 4chan the moment they want to torpedo you in the public eye.

Reagan greased the wheels a lot with setting the precedent of the executive bypassing congress when it wanted to do something illegal, as well. Cheney did more to centralize power in the executive branch than any single man in American history. Obama is mainly just formalizing a lot of it...

It comes back to the principle problem with writing for a character like Superman. Its hard to have dramatic tension when your principle protagonist is basically invincible/invulnerable. Its something that the storytelling in Superman has struggled with for years and why they introduced the...

You pretty much made my point for me here. Your average liberal or centrist WANTS input from strangers to make a more informed decision. Your garden variety right winger does not want to know about anything outside of their little bubble. The downside is that the left is rarely in loc step...

That is largely due to the moving of goal posts that has happened on the right in the last couple decades. Nixon and Reagan would be liberals to most of these people if they ran on the policies they enacted.

Its what happens when you have a really solid actor playing a villain who has a role beyond being a punching bag for the protagonist. Helps when you give the actor enough time and dialog to build up the character, too (something Cumberbatch need more of in ST:ID) to get into people's heads...

Not trying to be insulting here, but the kinds of people with knowledge of and access to the internet, plus the abundance of time to post frequently, are generally going to NOT be right leaning people. First off, it takes a certain mind set to want to interact with a wide variety of people with...

Koreans, hands down. Arrogant mother fuckers who think they are the master race, when really its us Germans.

Oh yeah (derp!). Forgot what thread I was in.

There are bye games in 2a? Did not realize that.

Watched this game and it was painfully hilarious how bad things went for ZP. And of course, poor Will Smith... Goodnight sweet prince of Bel Air....

A couple divisions and stunty waiting to advance! Get it together Cutlerone!

Khalan and I have made arrangements to play tomorrow night at 10:30ish, PST.

I would make three movies/franchises if I had the power to do so: Live action Season of the Mist (Sandman) I would do the original three Shanarra books by Terry Brooks as a trilogy. I would make a Snowcrash movie.

Colin Baker caused a shit ton of problems, albeit not necessarily his fault. He had immense issues with the costuming (which was bad) and was generally scripted as the asshole doctor during his entire run. He was not well received by fans, who were hoping for a return to the more comedic and...

Yeah, not sure who the fuck signed off on that opening song. Honestly, the best episodes of Enterprise were the ones where Archer was overcoming his post Xindi war stress and the evil universe two part episode that tied in the tholian web.

So more like Master of Magic?

Ok, I got confused about times with Disdained and forgot he was European. Our game is not going to happen, mostly due to the holiday weekend and Arrested Development fucking things up on my end. Admin it however you wish and lets move on. As for stunty action, I am available tonight in the...

Disdain and I should get our game in tonight around 5ish Pacific time.

LOL should have said was, but yeah.

I doubt anyone is getting in line to fuck Thatcher or other powerful women, though. And Ron Jeremy is a stud because men like the idea that a fat ugly dude can bang hot chicks. His celebrity status has nothing to do with what women think of him.

Disdain is only on steam, so working out a time is tricky. Will try and get it in tonight, if I can.

There was a lot of Borg fatigue after Voyager ended and tossing them into Enterprise just added to it. Plus, considering how primitive the tech was in Enterprise relative to the Borg, any sort of interaction was really stupid at that point in the series history. And of course, why in the fuck...
