  1. 1. IT'S REALLY FUCKING NOT. Are you a member of the National Guard? No: You aren't well trained. You aren't a militia. Hence you have no legal right to own a gun. Yes: Ok, you can own a gun. Here, I'll compromise--if you aren't a member of the National Guard and still want to own a gun, then you can purchase a powder loaded musket, just like the founding fathers intended.
  2. OK, you want to be respected and not lumped in with the people you vote alongside. Please, enlighten me, where exactly is the compromise on: Gun control Abortion Immigration Equality The entire Republican platform, what it is today, is built around fearmongoring (and Trump is the pinnacle of that perspective), the "other side" will take our guns, the Mexicans will kill everyone, and the "other side" wants to take our god. When the right is ready to get back to the actual core Right values of small government, you let me know, and we'll talk. If you want the Left to take the Right seriously in its current form? Not a fucking chance. It has nothing to do with "superiority"--it's that the common sense side of my brain can't comprehend why anyone needs to own an arsenal of weapons, needs to tell a woman what she can or can't don't with her body, needs to tell people who they are allowed to and supposed to love, and thinks that anyone who isn't white or privileged is out to kill them. The Left isn't that far left. It just feels that way because the Right has gone so fucking far off the reservation.
  3. That is literally a fat sack of horseshit. You mean somethings like this?
  4. Fuck this country's misconstruement of the 2nd amendment. No country in the world, Middle East or otherwise, cares as much about guns as Republicans do. Republicans are the reason this country is on the path towards making the movie Idiocracy a historical document.
  5. So... because the movie was intentionally shitty, that made it good? CitW took those horror tropes and put them to clever use. Halloween took those tropes, rehashed them, put a fresh coat of higher production value paint on it, and called it homage. Whilst I could write an extensive list of all the shitty writing moments in this movie, nothing was worse than the most unintentionally comical line in film this year--"Happy Halloween, Michael". To be clear--the only problem I had with this movie was its horrible writing.
  6. I wish I could go back to saying that. This is a well produced film, built around homage at every turn, but as it own horror movie it's a big steaming turd. Motivations, actions, plot, and resolutions are all horrible. The only parts that didn't have me cringing are what's already been shown in the trailers.
  7. Before Triage, I would always fall asleep to audiobooks. Fell asleep in no time. Problem is, the next day I'd have little memory of where I left off!
  8. Leave it to Triage to create a thread and cause some drama. Happy now, @Rev?
  9. Wow. One of my coworkers is the director's mom. I saw her posting about him working on the movie, but I had no idea he was the director.
  10. Alec Baldwin is a national treasure and should be cherished.
  11. And wait... they JUST had an NWO reunion a few days ago. AND Kevin Nash is a CURRENT heavyweight champion in some wrestling organization. Man, if someone could get Scott Hall to stand on his own two feet for a few hours, it would be AMAZING!
  12. I'm tempted to get it just for the DX vs Kane/Undertaker match. With the hopes that Hogan runs out in NWO gear.
  13. I think not being able to post a YouTube embed link should be a bannable offense. @SFLUFAN Come to think of it, how is that even possible??? What YouTube links DON'T automatically embed here?
  14. Any macro lens recommendations for a Micro 4/3rds mount? I need to shoot some close ups of a product that's about an inch or two in diameter.
  15. You say that only because you want both me and my PS4 Pro all to yourself.
  16. I really want the new Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K. Only $1295, too. The camera is spectacular.
  17. It's older, but still a powerful workhorse. The Panasonic GH4.
  18. Apple's Watch update bricked my Series 4 LTE Watch. Customer Service is being VERY unhelpful.
  19. We go to sleep to an old Rain app called Ambiance.
