The 20th Amendment for one. It dictates that a president's term ends on January 20 at 12pm ET. (And the President cannot just suspend the Constitution to get around it, the Suspension Clause states Habius Corpus can only be suspended in extraordinary times)

Yes, but we are discussing a man who tried to overturn democracy on 1/6, who begged his cabinet to come up with just a thousand fraudulent votes, and who has launched a multi-year campaign challenging the integrity of the most-guarded election in US history.

This man has no intention of stepping aside peacefully.

It depends on what safeguards there are against a president making himself/herself a dictator. If Trump can, he will.

Bribe Vince McMahon to give Shelton Benjamin a WWE Title run that lasts at least a year.

That would put Vince into cardiac arrest.

It's the "Yes" meme

Oh, I didn't know that was Daniel Bryan.

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IP.

I'd consolidate the franchise.

• The tone for most versions is somewhere between the 1987 cartoon and the 2003 cartoon.
• The Turtles have matching bandanas with no variation beyond color. THIS IS LAW. No glasses for Donatello.
• Splinter is Yoshi, not Yoshi's pet rat.
• April O'Neil is an adult with Black ancestry. She has a niece who is the same age as the Turtles.
• Venus Di Milo returns, but not right away, with an upgrade in personality and no magical powers.
• Michelangelo is skilled at hand to hand combat so that scenes with nunchucks can be easily edited out of UK versions of various adaptations. Tonfas would be my go-to replacement weapons.

I'd use the title Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for versions aimed at kids/general audiences and Ninja Turtles (no titular reference to them being teens) to refer to versions aimed strictly at adults. And I'm going to be honest, those versions would likely be few and far between.

In your shoplifting a candy bar analogy, who was the shoplifter in this thread that you were calling out?

It was a metaphor for a minor offense. In this case, it would be the people who made comments about Sarah Palin's son. Presumably, no one in this topic.

What's Flash Gordon like? is he like james bond?

He's an American athlete who gets swept up to another world and becomes a hero against tyranny. He's much closer to Captain America than James Bond.

Jar Jar Binks

I get what they were trying to do with Willie Scott. She's supposed to be like Faye Wray in King Kong, but they carried the screaming damsel shtick a little too far. In her defense, she does have a few positive/neutral moments to her character. Jar Jar, while overstated in his annoyance, has no real redeeming value as a character.

I've swayed the few hundred voters that it'll take to tip the election in Trump's favor? In this topic?

You are legitimately paranoid.

Lunch.

It has three things working against it:

This is your great-grandfather's idea of a sci-fi hero
With superheroes being pulled out of obscurity, I don't think it would be difficult to modernize an old hero that people might have heard of before.

Ming the Merciless is a dated, yet indespensible part of the story
I would suggest a diverse group of heroes versus a Vladir Putin stand-in who looks like Anton LeVay. That's really where the character has been since the 1950s. And since Emperor Ming has a sycophant King Kala working for him, that guy could easily be turned into Donald Trump.

If producers still think the name Ming the Merciless is too racist to ever work in the modern era, they could skip straight to the Queen of Mars storyline and make Queen Fria the villain instead.

George Lucas already strip-minded the story's content for Star Wars
Flash Gordon is similar to Star Wars in its setting, but it's actually more like Indiana Jones in its tone. There's also a Roman Gladiator motif going on with the villains that is nowhere to be found in Star Wars. I'm picturing a movie with fist fights, cliffhangers, an erupting volcano, and a battle or two with a giant monster. I think they could even have a swordfight and make it play out more like something out of a Kung Fu movie than a lightsaber dual.

It wouldn't be anything at all for a trailer to show us that, This is NOT Star Wars.

Question. Does anyone at albemarle(?) have a billion or more to their name? Have they unlocked their potential yet?

I didn't realize SummerSlam had already passed. I thought it was supposed to be the last Sunday in August. I quit watching shortly after the start of the Roman Reigns era. I didn't have anything against him personally. I just didn't like the way that Vince bullheadedly forced Roman to become a star before he was ready to become one.

Even if I didn't disagree with the direction the company took, three-hour long episodes of Raw and two-day WrestleMania events are just too much time to try and devote to wrestling. It's like fans aren't supposed to have any hobbies but wrestler. Oh, sorry, "sports entertainment."

You know, after 1/6, I guess I can't be too surprised that there would be people who would think, "We'll get 'em next time."

The last time they tried to overturn democracy through physical force, it ended badly. But the next time... when Trump is really in trouble... the whole army's gonna come to his rescue. They'll be there riding dinosaurs and wielding lightsabers.

There's no end to this craziness.

I wasn't trying to start anything. I was just asking.

Yeah. Pat is fun in live streams, but he doesn't have the same chemistry in-show.

Are you shock the monkey's alt?

I'm not lying. I said that similar bullshit had been said against Sarah Palin's children and it had. That's not saying that a few bad words on the part of some people on the left is tantamount to all of the wrongs that stem from the right. What it really means is that some individuals get high strung over the slightest criticism. (Notice I did not use a conservative buzzword when I said that.)

On a side note, "disingenuous" should be added to that bingo card.

Maybe it should replace the "suck an egg" one.

Unless you're talking about a different topic then you are being incredibly disingenuous at best, and outright lying at worse.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All the times that I criticized Trump and DeSantis was apparently me saying, "Now I don't like this Hitler fellow, I think he's an ass, but this Nazism thing he keeps talking about makes a lot of sense..."

Fuck that.

What is the image of this dude with a beard? I've seen it in a few places. I assume it's a right-wing meme. Is that the likeness of anybody in particular?

It happens a lot... followed by continuing arguing or doubling down on what was apologized for.

If you see an opinion that differs from your own, just insinuate that someone is a Nazi.

I literally had someone call me an influencer and imply that, yes, my posts on this site could alter the outcome of the next election.

It doesnt count cause the WWE hasnt gone to Wembley before. I dont really care about wrestling wars but thats just silly.

Summerslam was there in 92 and did 80 thousand.

"If I had been on the card, it would have been 180 thousand, brother." ~ Hulk Hogan, probably

That joke never set well with me. I didn't care for Marvel giving Wakanda credit for Thomas Edison's success with the lightbulb either. Whatever the reasons, don't give somebody's success to someone else.

Also, Lorraine was hotter than... whatever Marty's girlfriend was named. I swear, she only existed to show that Marty liked women. The sequels give her like five scenes in total.

Making a taboo of video game titties.

StealThisSheen posted...

It's mainly because WWE hasn't gone to Wembley... Lately, at all? because they're being stubborn and want the UK to help pay for the show. Both WWE and AEW's biggest shows typically sell out, or close to it, and AEW basically got the record via... Going to the biggest stadium first. It's a record, no doubt, but it doesn't actually mean anything when it comes to "wrestling wars."

That's like that a boxer didn't take the championship because they didn't want to put in the time to train. If the WWE wants the accolade of the largest attendance record in history, let them go back to the UK next year and pay to perform in Wembley.

But that's not what happened. You saw someone trying to spread lies and calling a grieving father and grandson a pedophilic relationship in order to weaken an opponent and said "I think I recall someone else making a meme 15 years ago, which is pretty much the same thing." And when people ask you who and when you say you can post the proof.

To quote the president, "You're full of shit."

DarkChozoGhost posted...

Well, you should, because there was. It added nothing remotely valuable to the topic. It contributed no good. It did not add any nuance. But it did draw attention away from the evil scumbags being talked about here. It moved a target slightly away from the backs of evil men. So nothing was gained by your post, but something was lost. Therefore your post was bad and you should shut the fuck up

That was my plan all along.

The absurdity of making a tasteless and unproven claim about "both sides" in a situation like this and then arguing that criticism of Democrats isn't allowed is insulting and pathetic.

People attack the Dems all the time, and rightly so. This isn't even close to an accurate belief that people don't tolerate such things. The real problem is you mindlessly tried to deflect and are now upset that you were called out on it.

Tasteless and unproven? It happened on social media sites, dubious message boards, wherever the internet posts its posts. I can't link to you a meme that opens with, "What is the difference between [Sarah Palin's] mouth and [her] vagina?"

I never said there were mass campaigns making fun of her for having a child with Down syndrome, only that it had been done. And that is a valid statement.

I didn't say half the nation, I said an entire political party. And it's true. Because sure, maybe not every Republican is spreading these false accusations or believes in them, but none of them are speaking out against them either, because "winning" is more important to them than honor and decency, and that means accepting the extremist rhetoric within their party if it helps get votes.

My apologies. It was Drizztlink who said it. No offense, but your posts are kinda blending together.

RchHomieQuanChi posted...

If you really believe this, then it only makes your original post even more pointless. If these political discussions are so useless, then what was your only tangentially-related comment supposed to accomplish?

I wasn't trying to light a match on top of a powder keg. I simply saw something that had been done before and made a comment of it.
