It's the polite form of fuckable

We have very different concepts of polite lol Honestly, it will put off a woman either way, but they may actually be LESS creeped out by someone calling them "fuckable" than "breedable"

I dunno if its misogynistic, but it's definitely weird and gross. I can't think of a single women that wouldn't be skeeved out by that.

So, this is important news vs what "unimportant" news?

Personally I enjoy Retronauts and the Get Plated podcast.

Finally, monkeys that are into model trains.

I knew exactly what this was gonna be when I opened this, and I haven't plated TP in like, 15 years.

Probably Amber Midthunder after seeing Prey

No. I was an adult when he first got big. I wasn't ANTI, I just didn't care one way or another about a child singer.

Holy shit at the negro subrace having a max intelligence score of 9, and Nordic having a minimum intelligence score of 13. They aren't kidding about how racist this is.

So you think shredder from the 80s cartoon should be voiced by a different guy?

I'm talking about going forward. Still wild that Uncle Phil was Shredder though lol

Its generally preferable, if only to get more people chances to work. Its funny that people were so mad that Apu left the Simpsons. The most vocal ones probably haven't even WATCHED the show in a decade+ as is.

my favorite JK Rowling bit is where she gave the entirety of india and china one school because she absolutely sucks at knowing anything about asia

2.8 billion people get one school

I liked when she had one Asian character, and named her Cho Chang. Why not just call her Ching Chong or something if you're gonna half ass it so much?

I might give it a curiosity watch. I didn't even hate the end of GoT as much as most people, but once it was done, I was kind like "Well, I'm done with this forever now" It's honestly impressive how something could be like, the biggest show in the world and then have almost immediate cultural irrelevancy. Its interesting that they're striking when the iron is ice cold with this show lol

And there were talking Moblins in LoZ. In either case, that was an example of a creature that would normally be an enemy acting as an NPC, which is distinct from establishing them as a race of NPC's with story significance.

Whatever the details of the situation, the bottom line is that modern Zoras are clearly much more inspired by OoT's Zoras than any previous games', except possibly ALBW's (I don't actually remember if/how they showed up there, but that was also an explicit spiritual successor to LttP and would therefore be expected to base its canon off of LttP over OoT).

There was a quest w/ the Zora's in ALBW, they were definitely modeled after the ALTTP ones.

Wife and I went to Disneyland for a couple of days for our 5 year anniversary in March, stayed at the Disneyland Hotel. Decided to upgrade our 2 day tickets to annual passes, so we're going again at the end of this month.

Wait do people actually pronounce z as anything other than z?

Well, depends on the language. In Spanish z has an s sound.

Better at games from when I was a kid, worse at current ones lol Like I finally beat The Adventure of Link and the 2nd Quest of Zelda 1, but Dark Souls is impossible for me

Sometimes you need to take a step back for awhile. When you keep dying on the same part or something, you start to tense up and make even more mistakes out of frustration. Going back in with a clear mind can work wonders.

Avoided starting the nuclear holocaust/10 is my rating. His biggest blunder was going against his better judgement and listening to his military advisors with the Bay of Pigs. He learned from that, and when his advisors were getting hawkish about the Missile Crisis, he went with his gut and managed to find a peaceful solution.

I enjoyed it. Didn't grab me Like 3 and New Vegas did though. Still a lot of fun.

It's probably cliche, but, The Godfather.

I went a little while back for my friend's kids bday and it's barely recognizable from when I was a kid in the 80s. There aren't really any video games, no animatronic band, and seemed kinda small. Growing up, the one I went to was a pretty good sized arcade. Dumped a LOT of tokens into the Ninja Turtles arcade game, and for some reason, the Superman one.

I used to drink Cactus Cooler all the time, but I haven't seen it in years. It's orange-pinapple flavored.

It may mostly be regional. I still get it all the time here in So Cal

Oh hey. Of course, it's Ubisoft, so it'll be a bunch of copy-pasted busywork quests punctuated by the occasional Radio Tree to climb and published by a company that willingly shelters sexual predators, but it'll probably be pretty.

Presumably because hiring and costuming actual people to populate it is expensive, especially where the original costumes were just CG.

Oh, I get the logistics of it. Kinda hard to have like, 10 ft tall people running around lol It just accidentally has an eerie connotation.

Honestly, I feel like that's probably one of the better ways use the franchise. As much as the plot was forgettable, people liked looking at it. To that end, building a theme park around it so people can wander through the nice-looking world and explore the interesting scenery and creatures is playing to that strength.

That said, an open-world video game would probably be the better approach. Generally much cheaper than trying to physically build a world to explore, much greater potential for scale and worldbuilding, no actual need to put together a more compelling story than a barebones excuse for exploring the world... It probaby won't happen (or if it does, it won't be done well), but I can see that being better than attempts to squeeze more films out of a universe that never had much going for it aside from looking cool.

The land itself is cool, it's super weird though because there's a huge disconnect since the movie had no real memorable characters, so its just "Here's random Avatar stuff, with zero characters from the movie", its also SLIGHTLY eerie because you're supposed to be on Pandora, where the Na'vi have agreed to let humans come again and work together with them, but there's you know, no Navi anywhere except in some pictures and the two rides.

Pass lol the line between that and becoming insanely jealous and possessive is SUPER thin.

It's futile to try and explain the difference between biological sex and gender expression to chuds, they seem to be willfully ignorant and incapable of actual learning. This isn't even an advanced concept, I legit learned about it in Human Sexuality in community college like, 20 years ago. Its part of a 100 level course.

The visuals were nice, but there was nothing special about it besides that. Incredibly overrated movie overall, never had the urge to see it again.

No I will not see the sequel.

Is it really overrated? The consensus is basically "it was OK. Effects were neat" Everyone basically saw it in theaters because it looked cool, but it had no real lasting cultural imprint. It's why it's so bizarre that Disney bought the theme park rights to it, and opened a land dedicated to Pandora when it was least relevant culturally. Even now, people will go and be like "Oh rad", then proceeded to not buy any Avatar merch.

Ever since I learned about how the "Big Mike" banana was the go to banana until the 50s, and fake banana flavor was based on THAT (they were apparently a lot sweeter than the cavendish), I have kind of had a bucket list item of actually trying one of those, as they do still exist, just in small numbers

Basically the entirety of the David Lee Roth Van Halen albums.

Going by her "modeling" pictures, escort is being kind.

This is why I try to get all 3 big systems every generation at some point so I don't miss out on exclusives. I WAS gonna maybe skip on a new XBox, then they went and snatched up Bethesda lol

Honestly, I know my wife's number better than mine

Honestly his mom should be sued for taking him there in the first place. He may have gotten off on a technicality because of some janky wording in the law that they decided allowed him to be in legal possession of the rifle in question (which I still think was bullshit, as the intent of the law was clearly so minors could hunt with a parent or guardian present, not show up to protests to stir up shit), but had she not driven her armed, minor child to a dangerous, tense situation, none of this would have happened and he'd just be the short dork that sucker punches girls on video that no one ever heard of. So not only is she ultimately responsible for the deaths that night, she's responsible for kind of fucking up her kid's life. He's just gonna scratch out a living on the right wing grifter circuit with George Zimmerman signing autographs for white nationalists that think its rad he killed some damn libz.

what possessed you guys to try it? did you have to buy a whole case?

I was motivated by curiosity, and just bought 1 bottle just to say I at least tried it.

VampireCoyote posted...

lol its your favorite drink

Lol no. I tried it just to see and was surprised when I didn't hate it. I wouldn't go out of my way to drink it again though.

Its not as heinous as you'd expect. Its citrus with some heat to it.

As someone said they probably just take up space and don't drink, pay, etc. You could always retcon it to the bartender disliking droids after the Clone Wars though.

VampireCoyote posted...

Because youve heard the hits so many times that youre sick of them

This. Odds are one of the hits is what attracted you to a band, but you hear the same 3 or 4 songs on the radio all the time, so you're bored of them. Black Sabbath is one of my favorite bands of all time, but I barely listen to the Paranoid album because that's like THE hits album and you can only hear Paranoid, Iron Man and War Pigs so many times before you're tired of them . That being said, I still popped hard for those songs when I DID see Sabbath live, because its a totally different experience when you have a sold out Hollywood Bowl singing along to Iron Man.

The Parkland shooting in FL. The armed guard just drove around on his golf cart the whole time avoiding anything. What is the point of having any of these "security" measures if the people don't actually do their job?

To arrest kids with weed, duh

I wonder if he is so well known at his local McDonalds that they have his order ready for him before he even walks in the store. Like, does he just walk to the counter, swipe his card, and they hand him his big mac?

He was in the "Supersize Me" documentary, if I recall he said in the doc that the they just ask "How many?" when he walks in.

Probably not, but we'll see. My Grand-Dad died at 89, my Grandma is 91 and still doing well, so my dad's side of the family is at least giving me a fighting chance genetically.

Disney: "Hating gay people isn't good"

"Why does woke Disney HATE America?"

I also went to high school with Nick Cannon, but didn't really know him, so I don't count it.

I've loved watching baseball ever since I was a kid, have good memories of going to the ballpark for Padres games with my Dad, uncle, brother, friends. Granted the seasons were usually a bummer, but I did get to grow up watching Tony Gwynn, so that was something. I don't watch on TV as much since I don't have cable and for some friggin reason they won't have local games on MLB Network or Hulu, but few things are still as fun to me as actually going to a game. Just something about the vibe and pace of a baseball game that can be chill and exiting all at the same time.

This 100% confirms that the GOP have gay drug orgies though.

If we could leak footage of them, it would probably do more to save democracy than the Democrats have done in a decade

I never doubted that, I more doubted anyone would invite him to something cool.

Honestly after Endgame I was like "Maybe I'm done now", but the Spider-Man movies and the Disney+ stuff have all been really good and kept me interested.

Claiming that he's a God and super macho and therefore should be a prime example of toxic masculinity or some shit?

Have they seen some of the super popular big dudes in the world? The Rock, Jason Momoa, Arnold Schwartzenegger. All into peace and love and all that meditation shit.

Yeah. It turns out actually masculine dudes are pretty chill.
