  1. No it won't.  The only thing it will do is to change the weapon of choice of said mass shooter.  See Va Tech, Killeen, Austin, etc. 


    Current campus safety and design use these incidents as models where defense can be made possible. Deaths and casualties can be limited.

    Vegas shows the impossibility of defense when civilians have access to military-grade weaponry.

  2. Bullitt. Other than the car chase, the entire movie is so dated that the plot isn't even plausible. An iphone would have ID'd the phony witness from the get go and saved a shitload of footwork. The airport chase never gonna happen with post 9/11 security. The dirty politician still holds up well. That's one thing that will never change.


    Not sure if serious, but we can flush Romeo & Juliet, Casablanca and every Seinfeld episode down the drain because the iphone would resolve everything.
  3. Watched weird science last night. Chet is still hilarious. Forgot that Gary and Wyatt were supposed to be 15 years old in the movie. How times have changed.


    Think they were 15 and 16 when they filmed it. Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out, monkey dick!
  4. Revenge of the Nerds is unwatchable because of the scene where Lewis rapes Betty by pretending to be her boyfriend wearing a mask.  Hell, even the Wikipedia entry states this as "...Lewis, who has fallen in love with Betty, steals Stan's costume and tricks her into having sex with him."  Too cringe worthy now to continue watching.


    Lots of laws broken-all sides. Found this on another message board:

    Ogre drops a kid off the roof of the AB house. Assault and battery, possibly attempted manslaughter.

    -ABs burn their frat house down and then lie to the police over how it started. Arson? Insurance fraud?

    -ABs physically throw roughly 100 freshmen out of their dorms, many via the window. Assault and battery, theft by unlawful taking, trespassing.

    -Gable fires a brick (Nerds get out) through the Tri-Lams window. Vandalism, destruction of property, harassment.

    -Tri-Lams (Booger) get a bunch of people high (including Wormser) on "wonder joints." Illegal possession of a controlled substance, contributing to the deliquency of minors.

    -Tri-Lams break into the Pi Delta Pi sorority house and set up video cameras, then sell images of the unsuspecting nude sorority sisters at the Homecoming carnival. Breaking and entering, countless other pornography and theft charges

    -Lewis bones Betty Childs while posing as Gable. Rape.

    -ABs destroy the Tri-Lams house. Breaking and entering, trespassing, destruction of private property, vandalism.

  5. Also, Tom Selleck as Magnum, PI was not a douche, even though he drive a bright red car. He was self-deprecating, a little lazy. He wasn’t perfect, kind of a beach bum. But he cared about people. He barely was an action star and actually tried to think things through. This is the bizarro Magnum, PI. Looks like an opposite esthetic.

  6. And if you put enough people of color in prison, they all win. Too bad it was President Clinton that showed them the way. Every time it comes up, they get a good but Clinton ready. 


    Rehnquist Court. Conservatives took over government by branding themselves as tough on crime. Don’t like the legislation Clinton signed? More people needed to vote in 1994 midterms then.
  7. I don’t remember Malone being a jerk. Can someone remind me of why he is so hated?


    He flopped and fouled as much as humanly possible throughout each game. I once saw him take a charge from Rockets’ Matt Maloney (5’11 175). He shot backwards 10 feet. Not only was he dirty, he was a whiny flopper.
  8. I'd have to grow a mustache and get all kinds of robes and lotions and I'd need a new bedspread and new curtains I'd have to get thick carpeting and weirdo lighting. I'd have to get new friends. I'd have to get orgy friends.



    Still the worst line in the series. Dude lines up a threesome and doesnt pull the trigger. It’s like taking a shower with a beautiful woman, and wearing your jeans!
  9.  


    This is probably the 100th rant that would torpedo careers normally. It’s like he’s the villain in a movie where the bad guy finally exposes himself, except the movie doesn’t end with the bailiffs coming to take him away.
  10. Driver’s portrayal of Ben/Ren was probably the best part of the film.  The way he spoke to Rey immediately after betraying Snoke was perfect.
     
    Recast Rose to someone attractive and delete the Leia Poppins scene and this movie goes from C to B.  I can’t believe the powers that be allowed those 2 things.  So stupid.
    The plot has too much going on and there were parts of virtually every storyline that would need significant changes in order for this movie to be more than just ‘good’.  But as is, it was entertaining and FAR more watchable than the prequels.


    Rose character needed to be deleted. Lot more fat to be trimmed, more plot, more action, more suspense, less dead ends.
  11. I quoted M*A*S*H the other day...no one at work caught it because none of them were alive when the show was on except for like 2 of us.
    I quoted Seinfeld the other day...2/3 of the ladies at work didn't get it because they were too young to watch Seinfeld.
     


    The early millennials get it, but now no one has to see reruns anymore. We’re a fractured society without common references.
  12. Are you saying that you believe Malik wouldn’t receive any additional compensation for playing football up to this point if it was a completely free market or if the NCAA didn’t have a rule making a player ineligible if they receive payment?


    I’m saying there’s no market for semi-pro football. The product is inflated due to tradition. Remove the Longhorn decal off Malik’s helmet and he’s playing in front of hundreds at the Burger Center for the Austin Wranglers.

    In a world where the NFL is like international soccer and plucks Malik as a 15-year old for their junior team, I’ll re-evaluate my assessment of his potential value.
  13. Whether he was right to leave this year or not, I have no problem with what he says here. It is ridiculous that guys like him are not being paid given how much they work and the amount of money they generate for their school. 


    He is being compensated fairly for his worth. There is no market for semi-pro football.
  14. Lil’ Kim pulled a Trump like a fucking prodigy.
    He’s probably air high fiving Xi via Skype right now.


    Ah, what about the Nobel Peace Prize? Guess they busted out the champagne too soon and some kids in the Sudan will get some great Trump Nobel Peace Prize shirts.
