  1. Well, that nasty Republican Aaron Burr shot Alexander Hamilton!
  2. I remember the talk of deploying bunker-busters. God, why even chance using nuclear weapons just to gain a minor tactical advantage?
  3. O|X|O ------- O|X|O ------- X|O|X *Beep boop* Conclusion: The game cannot be won. Solution: can't be limp-wristed. That implies gay. Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out.
  4. Not in that picture in particular, but does anyone else think Sandman looks EXACTLY like Rutger Hauer?
  5. Will they never learn?
  6. Black Sunshine is terrific. Wasn't that from a soundtrack?
  7. So, to sum up: You're being partisan! No, you're being partisan! *Pathetic slapfight ensues* And the Democrats are like Billy Martin during the pine tar incident.
  8. Kane and HHH. Didn't they have some interaction after the Katie Vick fiasco? I thought it was messed up that Savage joined the nWo after: -The tension over Savage thinking Hogan was stealing his wife -Being on the team Hogan destroyed at the BatB heel turn. -Getting destroyed more often than just about anyone by nWo gang beatings. And the nWo Wolfpac was out-and-out ridiculous. Nash, Sting, Luger, Savage, and Konnan?
  9. Man, a lot of these are great. The Hart Foundation photos make me sad.
  10. My buddy's stationed in South Korea. He gave me the brief summary on N. Korea's army's capabilities. It was really quite illuminating. The long and short being, they could sweep over S. Korea and our forces there very quickly with sheer weight of numbers, but if they held them for a short amount of time, it would cripple N. Korea's army, as they don't have the resources to keep the army going for long at all. (Fuel, ammo, etc.) Yeah, can we think about this just a little bit? Just because their ruler's a psycho doesn't mean every Korean is.
  11. A lot of it probably is what parents/older siblings exposed you to as a kid. We listened to stuff like Zepellin, Credence, Pink Floyd and the Animals. A few more esoteric bands like Talking Heads Kraftwerk, and the Cramps. So I'll always have an affection for those bands, even if I don't actively listen to most of them that often. It wasn't until my teens that I started getting into more 80's bands, because my impression was it was all cock rock. Lastly, one Springsteen Song that always cracks me up is "Dancing in the Dark." It would be a good 80's pop song, it's just his voice sounds so wrong in it. I don't think Springsteen was meant for 'peppy.'
  12. Probably a majority of the songs on White Zombie's 'Supersexy Swingin' Sounds' are superior to the originals. Are we including mashups? If so my favorite are: Pink Floyd's 'Young Lust' with Biggie's 'Hypnotize (Dj's Z-Trip and Radar) Orbital's 'Halcyon', Bon Jovi's 'Shot through the Heart' Whoever did 'Heaven is a place on Earth' (Orbital)
  13. I don't necessarily disagree about this particular song, but you can make this argument about any cheesy 80's pop song. You could say the same thing about Bon Jovi or Def Leppard but they still suck.
  14. They also have the third largest military in the world.
  15. Yeah, I don't think there's a copyright on hyperactive comedians. I don't think Robin Williams ever said "Hey, remember, remember fuckin' Optimus Prime? *Bsssh! Ohhh I just got punched in the face! *screams*" There I just distilled a Dane Cook special. And for the record, I think Robin Williams' stand-up is worse, though he's had some great movies. And I must express my admiration for Cooks' Alien impersonation.
  16. Well, unfortunately I think Brandon's box is still intact. At least when your child asks you how high the sky is you can say with confidence: "about 200 feet." I find their music just derivative and painfully emotive and achingly, laughably sincere. (probably has a lot to do with Flowers') voice which I hate. Mr. Brightside sounds like the world's biggest sad-sack trying to make his own "Born Slippy." I mean, Springsteen had some of the same qualities, but at least many of his songs had upbeat, fun music. I mean "Born in the USA" was catchy enough that people had no clue it was not a patriotic anthem. I don't mind a band is somewhat over the top or bombastic. I mean Muse's "Knights of Cydonia" is my favorite song on the radio now. It sounds like Queen showed up in the middle of a Sergio Leone movie. And from what I saw of them in concert, they take themselves quite seriously.
  17. Funkadelic has the best bad covers though. The Elctric Spanking of War Babies is a classic.
  18. I don't really mind Stewart that much, and he is a good interviewer, but sometimes he does become a self-parody. The worst is his terrible, terrible Woody Allen impression. It has never been funny, and rarely is even appropriate to whatever he's commenting on. I wish I could find some Steve Vs Steve clips, though. Those were absolute gold.
  19. He's like a kid with ADD reading Seanbaby.
  20. Or to have something in writing to cover their tracks. Apparently Foley was being creepy in person. Either way, I wouldn't say it makes the Republicans look bad because of one bad apple, except it might be a cover-up, and all the pundits were defending this guy before fact one was out.
  21. If you like political intrigue, and don't mind slower moving movies, check out the Patlabor movies.
  22. Ouch, that chest on the one in the middle is blinding. Listened to a little right-wing radio today, to get their take. Limbaugh's take is it was the kids' fault and they were 'goading' Foley. This from the guy who played the ENTIRETY of "Where have all the cowboys gone" for the guy who beat up his daughters teacher because she said he made advances on her. (later found false) Foley SAID he sent those messages. He's in rehab. He said he was molested by a priest. He's not even trying to deny it! And yet it's not only the Aides' fault, it's now the entire Democratic party. Oh also, now the "Democrats have linked homosexuality with pedophilia." Which is so forehead-slappingly wrong. http://www.thestranger.com/seattle/Content?oid=84784 Thank goodness for Dan Savage.
  23. The guy was clearly onto the joke from pretty much the get-go, trying not to crack up. The exchange went something like this: SC: Say something that would make you lose the election if you were contested. RW: *doesn't understand* SC: Finish this sentence. "I enjoy cocaine because...." RW: *smiling* I enjoy cocaine because... It's a fun thing to do! SC: I enjoy the company of prostitutes because RW: I enjoy the company of prostitutes because... It's a fun thing to do! *finally breaks* They're probably even more fun to do together! And seeing an old clip of Steve Carell warmed the cockles of my heart. He was so funny on the show.
