The word works. iolo and DBT pretty much nailed it. But from an everyday point of view, it automatically connotes some belief and dedication to some supernatural entity. Then you begin to narrow it down from there. It's kind of like saying, "I have a car." We all know what a car is, and from...

Oh, fuck off already.

It's difficult to infer anything except that from what you posted. So if that's not what you meant, then clarify it.

It's hard to believe it's anyone but Muslims. If you want to wait to confirm, that's fair enough. It's not like you or me or anyone else here needs to swing into action. But going on the presumption that this is almost certainly a Muslim terrorist act, what will the French do? What will Europe...

If you make it too close to the game, the appeal is too narrow. So that's understandable. But what they've done is made a movie that doesn't look close enough to take advantage of the charm of its source material AND they've saddled it with a horrible, predictable story and horrible, predictable...

Yes, I did lump it in with all the godawful RE's that came after it. The first one was at least watchable.

If you buy into it, you have to admit he's right. If you can guarantee the saving of your children's souls by killing them, then what the hell are you waiting for? Yeah, you'll do some prison time and maybe even be executed, but dammit your kids will get a one way ticket to eternal bliss and...

How many good movies based on video games have been worth a damn? I'll go out on a limb say there's one. That was Silent Hill. But you still had to endure a good 15 opening minutes of utter stupidity before it finally settled down and became watchable. And Silent Hill wasn't great, but it was...

The Iceman This is a movie about Richard Kuklinski, a mob hit man who killed somewhere between 100-250 people. He got the nickname "Iceman" because after he killed someone he'd store their body in a freezer for a couple of years so that the police couldn't figure out the time of death. The guy...

Please tell me that this guy is not going to get banned. There hasn't been a character like this around these parts in years.

You're right, Tsongas was actually a good guy who just didn't possess the necessary personality traits and did possess the intellect that is deadly for a POTUS candidate. My reference was primarily toward people like Herman Caine, Bobby Jindal, Steve Forbes, Elizabeth Dole, Pat Buchannon, Lyndon...

Obviously you're new here. So I will try to help you. This is a forum full of people who often disagree with each other. But it is also a place for intellectuals who are either formally or well self-educated. When you have an issue you want to discuss, start a new thread. Keep the topic...

People are already calling it "Klingon Jesus." I don't know anything about art, but if you look at the size of Klingon Jesus' hand compared to the size of his head, he's either sitting about ten feet behind young misseur Carson and his arm is ridiculously long, or he's just got a giant fucking...

Just 11%? That's discouraging. As a single man who has the one standard of never dating a Christian woman again, this only ads to my fear of ongoing, somewhat self-imposed celibacy.

The next thing we're going to find out is that Carson isn't actually a neurosurgeon. He's just a bus driver with the same name as a local neurosurgeon.

Partly. You're right that Carson isn't delusional, he's just a bullshitter--a liar who suddenly has to account for his bullshit. He's gone around for all of his professional life never being questioned by lay people because of his profession. He's been able to say anything he wants because he's...

Stupid. People act as if this pipeline would have been the first and/or somehow the worst thing to happen to the environment in the U.S. since Three Mile Island, which, by the way, didn't injure or kill a single person. But you wouldn't know it to read all the hoopla. The following link is to a...

One cannot be a brain surgeon be unintelligent. At least in that one narrow area. I should have articulated that more clearly. Without telling a long story, I've been exposed at some length, more than than most, to doctors and the people around them. They're idolized and considered above...

:) I'm 46. That's why when I read the OP, it took me back to my childhood when I would actually hear people my grandparent's age say things like that. If my grandparents were still alive they'd be around 100 years old now. It's in the same ballpark as needing a "Dose of Jesus" and "Don't get...

I watched this one based on what you wrote here. Thanks. It was a solid movie--and the Cold War gets such short shrift these days in the movies, so it's always nice to see one. However, it does have its problems. I don't want to spoil anything and the "hidden" feature begs people to have plot...
