  1. Disagree. The next four years are going to be surprisingly tolerable for those of us who can no longer muster a shit.
  2. Dress appropriately. Have kindling.
  3. Yep. The film was a special emotional experience for me because I've never watched a movie where my perspective kept shifting so much. I was seeing the movie from the kid's perspective because I was, indeed, a kid, but I was the age of the parents, and I was seeing it from there perspective as well and it was like a ping pong ball (which is why I think the simple script was absolutely necessary). Wrap that up in being suburban style Texas and I was enmeshed. Plus, P. Arquette was so damn good in the flick. She jumped out of the screen into the real world. It was a perfect follow up to D&C and Slacker (virtually the same time period as my time at UT.)
  4. Dazed and Confused and Boyhood>>>>>>>>>>Just about everything I'm about RL age, and I'm wondering if Boyhood is just perfect for guys our age.
  5. I just have this feeling that QE is going to become a man -- some would say a myth -- on Friday.
  6. Wow, Yellowstone, 1883 and 1923 are trumpy as hell. The jumanji sections of 1923 were fun/stupid though.
  7. Don't you solve all your "too liberal to be a Trumpster" problems by just ending every statement wiht: "But first, we gotta build a wall."
  8. I'm feeling really dense just coming now to the realization that Trump is the most rational of Trumpsters.
  9. You but you act like they can't make an argument that fear of increased wages is increasing the speed of implementation of automation. I remain skeptical of the argument that is being made as well, but it's an argument that one should consider. I do think that there is only so much we can get accomplished with minimum wage laws and that some other form of income supplementation might be a better solution. Damn, the future is scary.
  10. Give a man a Filet-O-Fish (TM), and you feed him for a day. Raise his wages and he'll buy his own damn Filet-O-Fishes and Royals with Cheeses and profits will rise (trickle up).
  11. You people need to get with the program and come in for the big win. Inside every Kalaallit is an American trying to get out.
  12. None of us are the problem and none of us matter. We're all just talking out of our ass. In Sark's eyes, a healthy or somewhat hobbled QE is a better option than AM. It not only makes perfect sense, it's certainly at least a logical enough assertion for a board like this.
  13. Agree. Everyone, including QE, knows this is how the world works, especially if the guy below you is named Manning. I'm sure he'd rather not have to deal with it, but he'd rather not deal with nagging injuries more. He's going to be good the next three games.
