  1. Hmm, no way to enter sub-title when creating a new topic now... I knew nothing of the books (other than hearing they existed and were popular) so I went in a blank slate. The vast majority of the audience was much like a Twilight audience, which had me worried. But this is pretty much the anti-Twighlight: it's smart, moving, has a point, and has a strong lead actress (who CAN ACT) and she takes her life by the horns instead of being a pouting victim. Even better, it has a subversive message that is very, very timely at this point in history, especially in light of the 99% vs. the Romneys of the world. Visually it's not nearly as spectacular as John Carter but it is very touching and well done. Highly recommended! Anybody read the books?
  2. Yeah, I think it's just a ploy by Expat to get *further* ahead in the post count!
  3. Hahahaha! Perfect! And the look on his face.
  4. Making fun of the Bieber amuses me!
  5. It's funny, I hadn't the least interest in watching GCB until I just saw this:
  6. I think someone should remind Pope Rick that yes, a previous AG {and fundamentalist Christian loon and mind bendingly awful singer} under George W. Bush did, in fact, decide to wage a War on Porn™ as Pope Rick points out. And that man was John Ashcroft. Who, you all may or may not recall {clearly Pope Rick does not recall}, got a request from the FBI early in the Bush administration for additional counter-terrorism funding. Ashcroft not only refused the request for the funding, but in order to fund his War on Porn™ that Pope Rick apparently wants to emulate in his administration, Ashcroft instead actually cut $58 million from the Fibbies budget. And what was the date that Ashcroft ordered that $58 million counter-terrorism budget cut? September 10, 2001. And we all know how choosing the War on Porn™ as a priority for an administration to focus on over counter-terrorism worked out for all of us. Scott manages to put into words exactly what I'm thinking, as usual.
  7. Very well done! Will the real Mitt Romney please stand up, please stand up, please stand up... I'll probably have that in my head all day!
  8. I do cinnamon with coffee every morning, it's great at removing the bitterness, don't need cream or sugar!

    Spring Break

  10. See it before Friday if you can, think Hunger Games might knock it off a bunch of screens, incl. IMAX.

    BINGO

    I love those! Seen the bunny suicides comics?
  13. Woman in Indiana faces 45 years in prison for "attempted feticide" after attempted suicide.
  14. I've read several article on autonomous vehicles, I'd love it but think it's a long way off, even though I enjoy driving. Would LOVE to have all the current bells and whistles though, I'd even like some of them to be gov't mandated: Cool think about blind-spot warning is it can also remind people to FUCKING SIGNAL. Love the idea of closing distance alerts and full-authority braking, paired with full authority cruise control is a plus (as they're usually paired anyway).
  15. I thought it was funny, though not as funny as this, especially once it starts with Baby, Baby, Baby, Ooooh...
  16. Given that he's gorgeous I hope his career takes off, but he barely passes for a *college* sophomore, let alone high school!

    What the hell, Chicken Soup with Kreplach? Wasn't Kreplach the Klingon live worm dish in Star Trek???

    I always go to the good Chinese place in town and get a to-go container of egg-drop soup. Much like chicken soup but even more soothing with a sore throat.
  19. Especially in light of Reagan's traitorous negotiations with Iran before he won the election to keep holding American hostages until he was sworn in, later paid back with Iran-Contra. But all hail the great savior Reagan!
  20. Oops, missed an r in the title.
  21. I've always admired the man, but didn't expect him to be this progressive on homosexuality!
  22. Canada Warns Against Travel To Russia In light of the widening campaign to repress LGBT people across Russia, Canada's Foreign Minister has warned gay citizens to be wary of travel there. VIA JMG.
  23. Sure would be nice if every woman we knew would watch this, register, and VOTE!

    Walker Alert

    Where's Carl!?!
  25. I think the Liberal bit would go better on a t-shirt... if somebody finds who's selling them I'll buy one!
