| Topic | ALL Public Schools in South Dakota must put IN GOD WE TRUST at EVERY location!!! |
| kind9 07/27/19 4:03:48 PM #19 | Taily_Po posted... I know you're not on speaking terms with this invisible sky daddy. Yeah, so? Taily_Po posted... As for pretending agnosticism is atheism, it's a flat-out deception and entirely in bad faith. You can't pretend that it's a minor issue in semantics, especially since that bullshit is pretty agenda-driven. Want to talk about agenda-driven? How about how historically those who didn't believe in God were considered degenerates, heathens, heretics, and were ostracized or executed? That's the mindset of the people who decided that atheism is the outright rejection of God. So what agenda are you talking about? All those atheist organizations promoting things like secularism, humanism, science and critical thinking? Agnosticism of Huxley's variety may have a place in certain philosophical discussions, but as it turns out most people aren't philosophers. If I ask a person if they believe in god and they tell me they're agnostic, they didn't answer the question. --- |

| Topic | ALL Public Schools in South Dakota must put IN GOD WE TRUST at EVERY location!!! |
| kind9 07/27/19 7:00:04 AM #12 | E pluribus unum means "out of many, one" and I'd say it's definitely more appropriate than "in fairy tales we trust". Taily_Po posted... More importantly, it doesn't specify *which* god It doesn't even matter which invisible sky daddy it is, but we all know it's the Christian one. I feel like I struck a nerve with the atheism thing so let me just correct myself then and say that religion is on the decline, unless you want to debate the meaning of atheism and the pointlessness of Huxley's agnosticism. --- |

| kind9 07/27/19 5:20:19 AM #9 | E pluribus unum is a cool motto that makes sense. In God We Trust is a lame motto that makes no sense in a country without a national religion where atheism is on the rise. --- |

| kind9 07/26/19 9:39:29 AM #20 | I don't have a smart phone, but I would probably just watch shit on youtube or maybe read ebooks. That's what I do with my tablets at home. BUMPED2002 posted... This might actually surprise some of you guys but I actually use my phone, get this, to make phone calls. Who knew right! You don't do anything else with it? --- |

| Topic | How often do you clear out your internet browser history? |
| kind9 07/25/19 6:51:57 AM #12 | SKARDAVNELNATE posted... Cleared automatically when the browser closes. Doesn't everyone have this set? If I did that then I'd have to keep a shit ton of bookmarks. It's so much more convenient when you can start typing the name of a webpage in the address bar and have it pop up, no need to remember the address or bookmark it or go searching for it again. --- |
| Topic | Can you have fun "just" playing a game and not winning? |
| kind9 07/25/19 6:39:54 AM #23 | I play a lot of sandbox/survival/sim games, so yes. I've been enjoying the hell out of Oxygen Not Included and that's a game you just play and don't win, in fact the only guaranteed ending is that you eventually run out of resources and die. Don't Starve is similar. --- |

| kind9 07/20/19 5:08:40 AM #2 | What a coincidence, I've been rewatching that show and I'm on the episode where Tony's in a coma after getting shot and is dreaming that he's a dude called Finnerty and has alzheimer's and gets assaulted by Buddhists. The first dream sequence was a fever dream though which is probably why it was so random and nonsensical. --- |

| kind9 07/18/19 5:45:39 AM #3 | Well my dad had an Atari and Pong(among other games I assume) but that probably doesn't count. The first console my parents bought for me was an NES, which came with SMB1. SNES is the one mainstream console I unfortunately never owned. --- |

CTLM posted... I had the 3 game combo: the same 2 games and the clay pigeon shooting game That's the one I had. I always thought the clay pigeon game was part of Duck Hunt. --- |

| Topic | If you call ICE on families minding their own business, youre going to hell. |
| kind9 07/16/19 9:58:14 AM #34 | Zangulus posted... No. Concentration camps existed before the death camps. Youre confusing two things here. Big fucking difference. Death camps were concentration camps. Regardless, the OP is comparing illegals in America to the holocaust and it's a false equivalence. --- |

| kind9 07/15/19 12:49:13 PM #5 | LeetCheet posted... Older games which only had singleplayer or local multiplayer will always be relevant to me too but I was reminiscing about certain online games with more focus on playing with others and how sad it was to see those games dead and forgotten. In that case I agree. For me it's Guild Wars. God I miss that game. I miss buildcrafting with friends for running dungeons and elite areas. --- |

| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 10:05:47 AM #87 | Kyuubi4269 posted... This is why you look like an irrational loon. Why? Is it not true that the name James Bond is synonymous with 007? I say it is and it's not even debatable. Okay maybe I said something a bit hypocritical. Apologies. Yes, if the series ends I won't lose sleep over it. I consider myself a fan, not to be mistaken for a fanatic. If James Bond is replaced by some no-name woman as 007 then it will be a farce and obvious pandering to this stupid ass PC culture. This is my objection and it would be the same no matter which franchise we're talking about. --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 9:36:57 AM #85 | @Kyuubi4269 Why do you continue to act like the name James Bond has no significance? It's been mentioned numerous times already in this topic, James Bond is synonymous with 007. That's just the way it is. They can change it, but it won't fly, especially if it's being hoisted upon us for no good reason. Kyuubi4269 posted... What kind of fan thinks the rest of the series is comparable to the Craig Crash lol What? I've never even heard the term "Craig Crash" before. Die Another Day was also a horrible Bond film despite being the highest grossing one at the time. Don't mistake the word "fan" with "fanatic". If they kill the series off by replacing Bond with a different character then it's no big loss to me. --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 8:58:55 AM #81 | Once again, like I said, there is one constant. His personality, race, hair color, eye color, shoe size, etc, etc, are irrelevant to this. Kyuubi4269 posted... All I'm hearing is "Different = BAAAAAD, scary bad no good!" Are you admitting that your thought process is like that of a caveman? Kyuubi4269 posted... Yet you say the franchise isn't dead lol Of course it's not dead as long as it's still popular and profitable. Those are hardly the only bad movies in the franchise and probably not nearly the worst. --- |

I know a person like this who is a complete shut-in, angry all the time and rejects any help offered to him. Sorry but ain't nobody got time for that. Just be a friend when and if he reaches out, other than that let him be. --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 8:39:56 AM #79 | Kyuubi4269 posted... Well they've cast her, so... Is it confirmed that she'll be the new 007 going forward? I don't think so, and I don't think it's going to happen either, because... Kyuubi4269 posted... The name James Bond doesn't mean dick The name James Bond has become synonymous with 007. A fact that you seem to be ignoring. Change that and it's going to flop hard, mark my words. Kyuubi4269 posted... You mean the one with actual source material? Also I wasn't fond of Daniel Craig. Personally I really enjoy Craig as an actor. He was the only good thing about the last two films IMO. Pierce Brosnan will always be my favorite Bond though. --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 7:38:39 AM #73 | Kyuubi4269 posted... Evidently James Bond isn't a constant. I guess we'll see. Personally I doubt it's going to change. It's definitely not evident at this point. Kyuubi4269 posted... You're being irrational because a black woman was cast to do a role. How am I being irrational? What did I say specifically that was irrational? The only point I've made in this thread is that 007 is James Bond. And please don't try to paint me as some sort of racist or misogynist, thanks. Kyuubi4269 posted... It's not one I've cared about since the reboot, no. The reboot? You mean Craig's Casino Royale, one of the best Bond films ever? --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 7:23:33 AM #71 | Kyuubi4269 posted... Having black hair was a constant but that ended Evidently it wasn't a constant then. Like I said there is one constant. I already admitted that the character has had drastic changes in the past. Kyuubi4269 posted... Because reasons. Go ahead and pretend like you don't get it. Kyuubi4269 posted... It's already a dead series And just as I suspected this isn't a franchise you care about so it doesn't matter one way or the other to you what happens to it. That's fine but it makes your opinion on this worthless to me. Kyuubi4269 posted... It's on its second reboot, it's fucking dead. Do you realize this franchise comprises 12 novels, 25 films with 9 different actors, and a bunch of video games, spanning over half a century? Somehow it doesn't even seem right to call it a reboot. It's an ongoing series. --- |
| Topic | Full stop, reverse: The new James Bond is a black female |
| kind9 07/15/19 6:47:32 AM #67 | Kyuubi4269 posted... There's only one constant now for what 007 is Constant means unchanging. 007 = James Bond If you change that it's going to fail, guaranteed. --- |
