    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I've read the thread and just want to clarify. The rerolled consensus appears to be that nothing done by a man and woman together is even a little gay, and that there is no grey area. So if a woman puts on a strap-on and the guy simulates fellatio on the strap on, while calling her daddy, and...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    On the derail: its really annoying that in the 21st century we've somehow lost the distinction between finding something gross versus being afraid and bigoted toward those who practice it. Back to Arinath's dilemma -- its odd to me that no one has commented on this. The dude confronts his...

    X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)

    I wouldnt mind Lawrence in the Mystique role if Mystique played the role she should play in these movies (i.e. one or at most two scenes per movie). Its a stupid character with a stupid and uninteresting power. I think shes fine for the character; the problem is a character whose power is...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I'm glad I already only watch pirated copies of these movies. That way I dont have to change my behavior when they pull retarded shit like this. Substituting a black chick for fucking Valkyrie. Next theyll be casting a black dude as the Gunslinger and a white chick as Susanna. Its like...

    The Free Will Thread

    Yes, because even if we cant prove it -- and even if the alternative ends up being proven -- the alternative is terrible. The only intellectually honest response, if free will doesnt actually exist, is to never hold anyone accountable for their actions. Society cannot function without the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Interesting, I stand corrected. Your first quote isnt convincing (she may have been afraid without any actual vulnerability) but if she had burns, you are right, she wasnt fireproof.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This argument is confusing. For those who have read the books or watched the first eason of the show Not sure how comments made by the author offline have any bearing on this. Who are you gonna believe, GRRM or your lying eyes? She's obviously fireproof. The only point worth arguing is...

    Kings and Heroes

    Well if we're gonna take it to that level lets just cut to the chase. Not all of us decided it would be fun to stare at a computer simulated male ass for hours on end. We all knew how to get to third person, but some of us recognized that it sucked and wisely stayed with first person. The...

    Kings and Heroes

    Arguments about EQ bring back memories. Quaid, your still wrong, but this was fun. Thank you. I swear we had the same argument a decade ago! (PS, when youre in first person you are still allowed to turn around, ya know... its a flick of the fingers. Theres no loss of situational awareness...

    The Flash

    Theres some kind of inception level trolls within trolls going on re: the flash lately, can you clear this up for me? In the comics, Barry Allen is the flash; hes a blond white guy. Wally West is Kid Flash; hes a red haired white guy. I never heard of any black flash until they inexplicably...

    Kings and Heroes

    No, you are wrong, probably because you used one of the sub optimal methods I described previously. First person was never a disadvantage assuming people didnt do stupid things like use the mouse for clicking hotkeys or targetting, or use the keyboard for turning. I played druid, enchanter...

    Kings and Heroes

    No, thats not true. Third person sucked for all classes and was always an unnecessary crutch. A quick flick of the fingers lets you turn 360? in first person view, or you could quickly F9 to cycle through cameras. Third person was training wheels that ruined immersion and made everything...

    Kings and Heroes

    Third person was always the choice of keyboard turners and people who used their mouse to click their hotkeys. First person was always the best and only way to play EQ. This looks great. I dont even try games that dont allow first person, and outlawing the inferior modes right off the bat...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    No, roundabouts are objectively terrible. In a 4-way stop when two cars come into close proximity on intersecting courses, theyre moving very slow. In a roundabout, the drivers are incentivized to keep moving as fast as possible while they approach each other in some fucked up mad max version...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    holy fuck. People who defend roundabouts. Jimmies rustled. These things are literally the worst traffic invention ever; they literally reward the more aggressive driver. Roundabouts should be banned and anyone who defends them castrated. Four way stop, motherfucker, its how civilized...

    Who are you voting against the least?

    I'll give it some weight when he says it in the general election debates. My take on Trump is that his campaign is entirely driven by ego -- the only ideology he has is winning. In the Republican primaries, he gives minor lip service to conservative positions, because this is key to winning...

    Who are you voting against the least?

    Its really confusing how anyone can call Trump right wing. The man has no political ideology -- he has not campaigned on right wing social stances and his long record in the public eye shows zero evidence of right wing positions. Quite the opposite -- he is solidly aligned with the establishment...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Totally agree -- as long as he grows out the silly crew cut into something normal he would make a great Eddie. Im curious why these articles keep mentioning the Max Max chick has been cast but never say which role. Theres only one major female character in the book; obviously she's...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Lets aim the criticism where it belongs -- I was the one who said Rick would make an acceptable Roland. To be clear, I never said a great Roland. But I could see it, and I stand by that. Remember that Roland is a man of few words; assuming the actor is capable of toning down Rick's overly...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    yall are gonna crucify me for this but hear me out. I was watching TWD the other night and it struck me that Rick wouldnt be a terrible choice for Roland. He's not Eastwood, sure. But I could see it. Picture it. Tell me he wouldnt be a better choice than this fucking black dude.

    The Walking Dead

    I dont know anything about brain gunshot wounds specifically but its my understanding that the usual TV trope of "OMG have to remove the bullet" is pure fiction. Apparently in some cases its better off to leave the bullet in place, and in most cases removal of the bullet is a very low priority...

    The Walking Dead

    I'm surprised by the positive reactions this is getting. Yes, there was a great amount of action. Definitely not a filler episode. But I sat there watching it thinking either (a) they have a guest director this week or (b) this show has completely jumped the shark. 1. The retcon cliffhangers...

    First World Problems

    WTF, in what world is it more secure to sign your credit card than leave it unsigned? When its unsigned, cashiers ask to see ID. When its signed, they look at the signature and dont ask for ID. How can the latter possibly ever be more secure then the former? Never signed a credit card...

    Lucifer

    Never saw Reaper, found Sleepy Hollow unwatchable. When did the devil appear in X-files? I hear ya on the boredom inherent in pure evil / pure good characters. I'm just saying this "the devil isnt a totally bad guy" trope is so overdone its just as boring. Itd be much more interesting at this...

    Lucifer

    Someday I would like to see a show featuring the devil where they make him a bad guy. It would be an interesting change of pace to switch it around like that.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    One of the weirdest things about the 21st century: theres so much butt talk, straight men end up thinking theyre odd for not being interested in putting their dick up someones butt. Sounds to me like someone has a case of the heterosexuality.

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    Look, its not a big deal, but its dumb. If they cast a fat dude for the Flash, everyone would complain. Because the physical appearance of the actor wouldnt match the character. If they cast a skinny white guy to play Kingpin, everyone would complain. But all of sudden when they cast...

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    I like the idea -- kill them off, maybe have them show up once a season. They can be like Kenny on south park except they show up once per season and are immediately killed. Yes, I caught that Hawkgirl is black on the showThat was one of my complaints -- in the comics she was obviously white...

    DC's Legends of Tomorrow

    Ive got it. They can fix both problems at once by having hawkman and the suddenly inexplicably black hawkgirl horribly maimed and killed, bringing a darker aspect to the show and removing the two biggest problems on the cast. Win win.

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    I really enjoyed this show. I completely agree with all the comments about inconsistent powers. But at a story level, it just didnt matter -- the story hooked me anyway; what a great villain and what a great dynamic between hero and villain. Its funny how strongly it contrasts with Daredevil...

    Hypothetical Girlfriend, Final Cut

    No no no. This is a huge pet peeve of mine so I'll go off for a moment even though the thread is kind of dumb. First, you are correct that 5.5 is the midpoint not 5. But this small amount of rightness is HUGELY outweighed by the horrible fallacies that follow. Its a normal distribution...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    People who think washing your hands after pissing is about the piss. "Piss is sterile" "I dont piss on my hand" Dude, you just touched your cock. If youd pissed on your hand it would literally be cleaner. Wash that shit.
