Yes, it's really quite forgiving of him.

Are they trying to tell us we should be feeling sympathy for a man who has cut a path of destruction for the past several weeks? Is this some sort of bizarre double turn angle here?

If he had walked out of the flames all Sephiroth-like, he would have instantly become my favorite wrestler ever. Well, at least my favorite wrestler of the day.

JR, in his Owen voice again. "We've just witnessed a horrific accident!" King actually earned his money tonight by correcting JR's remarkable verbal gaffe.

Meatwad has the most correct answer - YOU WANT ADVANCE WARS. You want not only Advance Wars, but ADVANCE WARS 2. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. There's been a lot of other good games recommended here, go by them. If you're into fighting games, check out Street Fighter 3 and King of Fighters ("Howling Wind" I think - not the "Neo Blood" version. Blood is decent, but Howling allows you to play as Iori Yagami!).

You have to be from the South, I suppose, to really understand. There's been a very distinct shift in the way the South and the Confederacy has been presented in the past few years. A decade and a half ago when I was studying the Civil War for the first time, there wasn't so intense a villification of the Confederacy as there is today. They didn't. Racism was rampant in the north. The North wasn't fighting for chiefly abolitionist ideals, they were fighting to preserve the Union.

You call your pets "kids"? Well.....I can't talk. My dog is alternately my "baby" or my "boy."

KKK could probably give you the most accurate answer. I believe it started when several people started what I'm sure they thought was a rather clever euphemism for the Fox News Network, "FAUX NEWS."

Ding ding ding! And we have a winner.

Do what Tyson does - punch it in the balls. That's a true story, for those who don't know. Before his bankruptcy, Tyson owned at least one "pet" tiger, which he enjoyed wrestling around with. Whenever it got a little....rambunctious, he would punch it in the balls. Frankly, even if I'm an 800 lb. beast with razor sharp teeth and claws, I wouldn't want that guy love-tapping my nutsack.

I still think it's a good bet that Arnold wins. Anyone know the over / under?

Need you even ask?

What was the purpose of this thread again? It seems to have gone horribly awry.

Christ, Sturgis, I don't think they've even waited 7 MONTHS.

She's attractive, and possibly a better wrestler, but Alexis still beats her in the looks department in my book.

Could someone pass along the link to the Arsenic editor again?

This is why I buy Kibbles & Bits. My dog likes it better anyway.

After reading the spoilers, my opinion can be summed up in one word: WEAK. Will this (hopefully) tarnish Loeb's vastly overrated image?

The war was about so much more than just slavery. But very few people acknowledge that, so anything associated with the South or the Confederacy during that period gets treated almost on the same level as the Nazis.

I haven't picked up 619 from the store yet, so could someone please spoiler text Hush's identity?

I thought the show was pretty awful last night as well, but I did think Tina looked pretty damn good. BTW, can it possibly be that I've slept on this - is Booker banging Sharmel? Is this some sort of common knowledge that I've somehow managed to be clueless about?

You ain't kidding, Powerplay. Next time use a site with a little less propaganda, young lad.

You equating a group of perverts who want to change the laws of this country so that they can committ rape (statutory or otherwise) upon little boys with those who struggled for abolition and women's rights is about the most offensive thing I've ever heard. The civil rights and women's rights movements have just been set back about 1,000 years just by your comparison alone.

That's what I was thinking it was. Indeed. It was the one part of the episode that made me cringe in disgust. This is an aside, now, but after watching some of the first season episodes of Angel in syndication, I must say - sweet Jesus did Charisma Carpenter hit the wall. I mean, who am I to judge, right? But she was SO fucking hot in those first few episodes, and now.......yeesh. Give me Fred anyday of the week.

I really, really, REALLY can't stand Gambit. I am going to be incredibly pissed if he suddenly becomes an important part of the show.
