    I never watched Nickelodeon I thought the shows were some of the dumbest shit on tv. So i didn’t know any of thes actors or actresses nor have I heard of them.   But with all that said. What the fk is up with Hollywood and them fking kids 

    Granted all this shit was way after I had dipped from Nickelodeon, but in the late 80's and early 90's, Nickelodeon was basically MTV for kids. They had the style and tone down completely lock. They were just about the coolest fucking channel around when stuff like Ren & Stimpy or Clarrissa Explains it all or Welcome Freshman or You Can't Do that on Television were on. Dumb and for kids, obviously, but it felt like they were telling a joke and you, the kid, were in on the joke, and the joke was at adults expense. I love the gross out humor and slime and all that shit back in the day. I grew out of all this basically right around the time All That started airing, so I missed out on Kenan being a thing, but when I was little, Nickelodeon was fucking cool. I remember desperately wanting to go on Nickelodeon Guts and win a glowing piece of the radical rock. I miss when Marc Summers was like a little kid rock star.

    what would you do/double dare came to the erwin center on some sort of tour when i was a kid and my brother and i got called up to the stage to open a door on WWYD. we ended getting slimed, which was badass. tasted kinda like cake batter. we avoided any weird foot stuff too. 10/10 experience, would do again.

    I did in this in Houston when they came to the Summit. I was in the nose bleeds, but they amazingly pulled me down to do the Nick Arcade segment where I got to go into the game. It was basically like Microsoft Kinect, only on a commodore Amiga in 1993.

    So I can't watch Are You Afraid of the Dark? anymore?

    Are you Afraid of the Dark aired on Nickelodeon, but they didn't produce it. Are you afraid of the dark was produced by a Canadian company called Cinar for the canadian kids channel YTV. It's not "real" nickelodeon, it's more like You Can't Do That On Television, aka imported shows that are associated with Nick in only in America.

    That article does not say what you seem to think it says.

    Also

    No one is contending that victims of abuse are guaranteed to become abusers. Most do not. But data does suggest that victims of violence are indeed more likely to perpetrate violence than those who were not victims.

    Your reading comprehension is fucking abysmal. None of those assert the notion that " it does happen at a much higher rate amongst the abused than it does amongst the rest of the population." 35% being victims means *65%* were not. There is not a higher rate of people who are child molesters being victims than those who are not, the data says the exact fucking opposite, you mongoloid dipshit.

    Sadly, victims of molestation as children have a very high incidence of "paying it forward," so to speak, as adults.

    I don't know the percentages, and it is absolutely not a guarantee that a victim will become a future predator, but it does happen at a much higher rate amongst the abused than it does amongst the rest of the population.

    This is bullshit and has been debunked for literally decades: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/the-british-journal-of-psychiatry/article/cycle-of-child-sexual-abuse-links-between-being-a-victim-and-becoming-a-perpetrator/A98434C25DB8619FB8F1E8654B651A88

    Looks like we got us a real badass he-man poster here, fellas. I'd be careful around him.

    whats really fucking funny is if you listen to the Always sunny podcast, those scenes he just quoted are meant to be making fun of exactly the kind of dipshit that posts those scenes on a message boards. They created them specifically to be cringe material for morons too unclever to not quote tv shows about objectively awful people. The very people he quoted are making fun of him for posting those clips.

    Uh, no.  JFC.  Some of you believe your own bullshit.  

    I find it hilarious that you put considerably more effort into your numerous posts about how much you love colonoscopies and how little resistance your asshole gives to things going inside of it than you do trying to justify your dipshit assertion that neo nazis do not exist. Spend less time playing with your fingers in your ass and try typing a message like a big boy.

    I'm disappointed in the finale but realize why they did it the way they did.   I think Rosie walking into the death camp and Egan's flag raising were pretty heavy handed/sappy but then I have to remember that a lot of Americans really have no clue about WWII and the Holocaust.  I would have preferred they just showed Rosie's conversation with the old man.   

    They had to make those scenes heavy handed because a not-insignificant portion of Americans today think the nazis were the good guys.

    They've done the Army (BOB), the Marines (The Pacific) and the Army Air Corp (MOTA). The next one should be focused on the Naval campaign in the Pacific including the fighter battles. 

    ETA they could probably just make a 9 part series about the USS Enterprise and call it a day. 

    NCC-1701-D? Make it so!

  10. The Wizard. It's objectively a shittier, kid friendly version of Rain Man, but holy shit the reveal of Super Mario Bros 3 at the end of the movie blew my child mind at the time. Going and seeing that in theaters and hearing the room gasp when they unveiled it is a memory I cherish.

    I also unironically love Terminator Salvation. Not at all on the level of Terminator 1 or 2, but I appreciate that it was much more serious than T3, and that it was a cool remix of the central theme (a robot that time travels, a central protector figure, etc). Plus that scene where John Connor takes down the terminators on his dirt bike while blasting Guns n' Roses You Will Be Mine is cool as fuck.

  11. That painting is awesome. I legitimately love it and would put it on the wall of my man cave. My senior year of highschool, I did a large poster drawing of Brad Lidge in pencil that I had framed until it drowned in Hurricane Harvey. My art teacher was, of course, an insanely huge pot head, and was regularly making "vases" in the kiln.

    Maybe, but they further confused it by showing the perspective from the POW camp and intertwining the Tuskegee story line.  When the POWs are trying to decipher the German freak-out, you can't tell if it's misinformation, pre-invasion or post-invasion.  Plus, they did show Rosenthal's perspective, but did it retroactively and didn't actually show anything he did on D-Day. Just weird all the way around. It felt like they were trying to avoid a story that's already been told elsewhere, but they ended up with a gap that wasn't filled very well.

    This same crew has already told the story of the invasion twice, one in Saving Private Ryan and one in Band of Brothers. They really had no reason to show D-Day a third time, especially when, as they put it, there was no luftwaffe  in the air. It's a show about bombing runs, and they encountered no resistance on D-Day. There was nothing for them to tell, other than to give you some far away shots of action already better depicted elsewhere. Someone above asked why they wasted moments on the tank not dropping earlier, well D-Day would have felt like that but even worse.
