Topic | I love how teachers try to spin their jobs as 'the hardest profession' |
The Top Crusader 02/20/18 1:57:36 PM #31 | I worked at a school and it always seemed that once you have established your lesson plan, it'd be a pretty easy and fun job. >_> Now getting that lesson plan down could be tough, I'm sure. But they tended overall not to move people around to different classes often at the school. I'm sure sometimes there is work to do at home but they also seemed to have a decent number of breaks--in elementary, kids going to recess or gym or lunch or band or computer class, and most middle and high school teachers had a couple free periods and a couple study halls. Maybe the school I worked at was an anomaly, though. --- |

Topic | Those school shooting victims are going in on Republicans |
The Top Crusader 02/20/18 1:49:23 PM #80 | Antifar posted... The Top Crusader posted...I agree, I don't really blame them. But what I've seen of them (basically just one TV interview) doesn't help their cause, IMO. A couple of students, one was at least coherent but his statements weren't really logical or factual, and the other just screamed at the camera man. I mean now is a time you can probably get some support for stricter gun laws, but if you just scream how every NRA member or gun owner is a murderer you are going to turn a lot of people off quick. Doesn't make for a good TV interview if you can't really even tell what they are saying because of shrill yelling. --- |

Topic | Those school shooting victims are going in on Republicans |
The Top Crusader 02/20/18 12:21:01 PM #49 | Lorenzo_2003 posted... I give those students a lot of leeway because theyre hurting right now. That murderer turned their world upside down and theyll probably be traumatized for years to come, if not the rest of their lives. Theyre looking for someone they can shift their pain and anger to, and that means finding someone to blame and making a change. This is all probably therapeutic. I agree, I don't really blame them. But what I've seen of them (basically just one TV interview) doesn't help their cause, IMO. A couple of students, one was at least coherent but his statements weren't really logical or factual, and the other just screamed at the camera man.

The Top Crusader 02/20/18 7:57:40 AM #20 | Jiek_Fafn posted... Baron crawled back up inside her out of embarrassment. I do feel bad for him, the other kids are adults and have chosen to support their father, he doesn't really have any choice. But anyway, I don't study Melania closely but I haven't noticed. --- |
Topic | Currently rewatching Iron Man 2. |
The Top Crusader 02/20/18 7:54:43 AM #20 | I've been rewatching the MCU films slowly over the last couple months to try to get them all in before Infinity War... a lot of them I haven't seen since theaters or maybe right after they came out on DVD/bluray. IM2 was actually somewhat better than I remember, although still probably the weakest in the series. I've always liked IM3, though. No, not the best MCU film by any means, but its perfectly okay. --- |
Topic | WrestlingCE - The Cruiserweight Division in WCW, the best wrestling ever? |
The Top Crusader 02/19/18 8:17:05 PM #4 | It was pretty great in retrospect. At the time I only cared about WCW vs nWo and mostly ignored the matches, but Ive slowly been going through WCW on the Network and getting to see it all again. --- |
Topic | What's your balding/greying status? Age? |
The Top Crusader 02/16/18 3:20:55 PM #7 | 35, either slightly receded hairline or "mature" hairline like TC said. It worried me at first but it seems to have way slowed down or stopped. Hairs a little thinner, but was always pretty thick so not too bad yet. No gray on my head other than an occasional loan one that pops up, a few more in my facial hair. I have friends that have pretty much been bald or close to it since their early-mid 20's, so at this point, I don't care too much I suppose. --- |
Topic | worst job interviews you've ever had? |
The Top Crusader 02/16/18 3:15:50 PM #32 | Ages ago I applied at a university a couple towns over that I had been to once or twice, so thought I knew exactly how to get there. Left early for the interview and everything just in case, and... turns out I had no idea how to get there, lol. Well, I DID eventually figure it out but was like 15 or 20 minutes late. This was before smart phones and I didn't have a GPS or anything. Anyway, due to that I was just flustered and did a pretty bad job in the actual interview, so even if they would overlook me being late, I did a pretty poor job and stumbled around a lot. --- |

Topic | man my gf's dog has arthritis and we have to take care of her, it is so sad |
The Top Crusader 02/15/18 3:44:55 PM #5 | I haven't had to make the decision, my dog is "middle aged" and still kicking, but when the family dog I grew up with was put down, it wasn't really my decision, it was up to my parents, but I'm glad I didn't have to make it. She was really getting miserable, though, struggling to stand and had to be carried on stairs, etc. --- |

The Top Crusader 02/15/18 3:38:15 PM #4 | I see the ranting on the internet about it from the far right but most of my friends are pretty right leaning Trump voters (I tried to stop them!) and they are all hyped to see the movie and don't get the issue. --- |

The Top Crusader 02/15/18 12:13:23 PM #22 | I'd be friends with one but while I'm open to theological disagreement (my wife and I have plenty) we at least have to be on the same team religiously. Just too important of a part of my life to not be in basic agreement on with a SO. --- |
Topic | 3 of the 10 Deadliest shootings in US history happened in the last 5 months |
The Top Crusader 02/15/18 7:55:47 AM #48 | "Search Results The modern sporting rifle, based on the AR-15 platform, is widely misunderstood. ... The AR in AR-15 rifle stands for ArmaLite rifle, after the company that developed it in the 1950s. AR does NOT stand for assault rifle or automatic rifle. AR-15-style rifles are NOT assault weapons or assault rifles." Yep. Not that it matters, but if you're trying to make a point at least make a logical one. DifferentialEquation posted... gunplagirl posted...How many of those shooters were white men with histories of violence or at least threatening others? How many were conservative? Pretty sure most of the high profile ones were people known to be liberal, not conservative. So again not seeing the point and it hardly matters what a crazy person's political views are, but if you are just going to start using alternative facts... --- |
Topic | Has a child ever been extremely annoying towards you before? |
The Top Crusader 02/15/18 7:50:59 AM #19 | Yeah I dunno what this new hip fad of having your kid pester adults these days... and in this case, a random stranger at that. At least I only deal with friends' kids, but BACK IN MY DAY after a few minutes the kids were always sent away to play amongst themselves and leave the adults to talk about porn or whatever adults talk about. Now most of my friends just let their kids in the middle of everything for the evening. --- |

That way white supremacists won't be saying ''this is a white country'' anymore and also SJWs will stop complaining about ''white privilege'' and everyone is going to be friends again I think then you'll just get more of "Make America Great Again!" and we have to make it like it used to be talk. --- |

Exactly. And like in my examples, no one fires a shot, just it being revealed is a pretty good deterrent. --- |
Topic | Can anyone make an actual argument as to why conceal carry is a good idea? |
The Top Crusader 02/14/18 8:05:40 AM #6 | Because tons of people responsibly carry with no incident? Like how many crimes have been committed by someone who had conceal carry that they wouldn't have just illegally had a gun otherwise? Conversely, how many people have stopped a robbery, rape, murder, loitering, etc, by having a concealed weapon? I know a couple people that were attempted mugged in a parking lot or whatever but the guy ran off once they saw the gun. --- |

Topic | Why do Americans love McDonalds so much? |
The Top Crusader 02/13/18 3:56:05 PM #34 | I don't really think it's that deeply loved. Most people are just kind of, "Well, its cheap and convenient since there is one on every corner." My current and previous job both had a McDonald's right around the corner, and not too much else to choose from, so if I didn't pack my lunch and didn't want to spend most of my lunch break driving to and from a farther away restaurant, that was my cheapest and easiest choice. The food isn't remarkable but $1 large drinks and iced coffee is okay. --- |

The Top Crusader 02/13/18 12:14:32 PM #41 | Used to get 5-6 during the work week then make up for it on weekends, 8-10... But with a baby now, its probably more like 4 during the week and 5 or 6 on weekends. :( --- |

The Top Crusader 02/12/18 2:26:56 PM #16 | Every few months, feels like such a waste of time and money. >_> I just get it really short, and let it grow to be really shaggy, repeat. So probably 3-4 times a year? I got my wife to cut it the last couple times, she does okay, its not like I have a fancy hairstyle. --- |

I remember when I first heard they were making a Mario movie I just assumed it would be animated, like a higher quality version of the cartoon more or less. Although once I knew it was going to be live action, uhhh... I was still optimistic because I was a kid but I knew it probably wasn't going to go well. --- |

DyingPancake posted...I thought the cartoons were great and they had voice actors that fit those roles well so I don't think their dialog will be weird if they find the right people for the part. I'm just wondering how over the top it would be Yeah, I'm an old timer so them speaking in gruff Brooklyn accents will always be the way it should be to me, lol, no offense to Martinet. An entire movie of his voice is kind of scary. --- |
Topic | Would you rather date an 18 year old, or a girl your age with 3-4 kids? |
The Top Crusader 02/12/18 7:50:53 AM #72 | I'm happily married and have a kid of my own, but assuming I was single, an 18 year old sounds like a nightmare. >_> Most people in their mid-30's are probably DONE having kids, certainly getting to the end there, so the odds would be single moms would be my only option. I don't see anything horrible or cuck-like about a guy being a good step father, though. --- |

The Top Crusader 02/09/18 9:11:50 AM #40 | I voted to send Barron to Space Camp because it seemed funny. >_> But I dunno, I don't wish death on him but I think he's a bad President. I think Pence would also be a bad President, and worse in some ways, but at the same time I think he at least has more respect for the office and wouldn't say dumb things on Twitter. A bigger concern I'd have though is I'm sure a big part of his loyal supporters, no matter what an autopsy said, would insist it was a LIBERAL ASSASSINATION and cause all sorts of rabble rousing. --- |

The Top Crusader 02/06/18 8:07:43 AM #6 | flat_tyre posted... I never liked the licenced lego in the first place, having a bucket full of standard lego is where it's at. Making your own stuff was the best part! Or like my brother and I did long before the licensing started, make your own Star Wars ships and stuff. Not that the licensing stuff isn't cool, but we enjoyed them plenty before, plus the space and knights stuff were pretty cool without it being officially branded anything. --- |
