  1. does what you're doing on this thread feel good?
  2. it's the fact that every character is a stale, comforting archetype
  3. it is exactly like a fucking hallmark movie. i was trying to figure out how to describe it.
  4. nothing to apologize about. it's all good.
  5. remember when Trump pissed off the kpop kids? something is happening here
  6. it's how corporations fire people too.
  7. the book is visionary because it recognizes women as people. master of fact, while blackthorne is the ostensible protagonist, or arguably toranaga, I've always thought clavell had the story centered around mariko. she's the hero. for me at least. there's one line that sticks out to me when clavell introduces mariko. "She was eighteen years old"
  8. jesus christ i forgot about that
  9. so, my sarcasm meter is sort of fucked today. you serious clark?
  10. it's almost as though, and stay with me while i streeeeeetch, that netanyahu almost wanted this to happen....
  11. how you gonna drop an n bomb with two hard fuckin rs
  12. like i could even remember that. though i wanna say near leidseplein because i and my boss nearly got arrested earlier that evening there for protesting a fight when we shoulda just kept quiet. but they had just ejected a black guy from a bar, he was beaten and drunk on his hands and knees when a bouncer took a running kick at his face. the police told me that i didn't know what had happened and that they told me what happened not the other way around as they arrested the unconscious black guy.
  13. i once had shwarma wrapped in a slice of pepperoni pizza at 3am in Amsterdam. Do i blame the israelis or Palestinians for that bit of fucking brilliance?
  14. it's alright, they started discussing the no hitter exactly one minute before it was ruined lolol why on earth even mention it or point it out much less discuss it?
  15. i don't know i has a confuse because my answer would normally be "whichever side wants to be perceived as good" but that's neither side so...
  16. if they don't, israel would. because this is all proceeding according to israel's plan. you put the screws to people, they eventually buckle. some will get angry and rise up and usually get brutally repressed. this is not a new pattern.
  17. and yes, this was my ultimate point. this is something i was talking to my teenage sons about. palestinians are in an ultimate no win situation. they are expected to act perfectly while they endure and witness abuse after abuse around them. obviously, the answer isn't violence, but let's be real. if we don't feel comfortable with "apartheid" as a desciption, then we can compare it somewhat to jim crow america, i guess. black people could succeed if they played perfectly by the white man's rules. that's the situation palestinians are in. hamas is a terrorist organization, but put yourself in their shoes. there is actually no place else for a desperate palestinian to go. i dunno. when you treat people like animals, sometimes they fulfill your wishes and act like them.
  18. this is how you cloak room, people. thank you for the informative answer. i learned a lot from this post.
  19. To who else should they turn for aid?
  20. the dutch gave us afrikaans. that catapults them into the stratosphere
  21. I was just out there dropping someone off. What a shitshow. How does anyone have fun or there knowing that somehow you have to get out of there? So much wasted pavement out there.
  22. mccarthy carrying water for jim is fixing hilarious. jesus christ he's bitchmade too
  23. this makes me wonder at the volume of locked away memories in the vault. until i read this post, i had forgotten that i went to a camp with scottie pippen. I also think it was blackmon and harper.
  24. also yall can shut the fuck up with my granddad up there being two fucking years older than me. what kind of hard ass 1930s lifestyle is that dude living?
