And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
While trying to find a gif of Takeshi Morishina's Amaze Impact i found this thread dedicated to him and holy poo poo there are people in this forum who missed that time where a literal baby was the scariest and best wrestler in the world. That he collapsed and isnt in NJPW continuing to have matches with Shingo is sad. I forgot how great his lariats were.

If you missed Morishima and only know him from being that random guy who won champion of the year alongside Edge please read this thread.

Go watch Memories Of Murder, it's a great crime mystery from our beautiful boy Bong, starring our boy's boy Song Kang-ho. It's in the canon of cop movies that are absolutely anti-cop, alongside Heat and Robocop. I heard a vague rumor that it's on YouTube complete with subtitles, but that's only a rumor.

Me I'm just trying to extract a little joy. Which I've managed to do with Disco, despite the mirror universe arc in season 1 being pure dogshit. They managed to wrap it up in a pretty trek like fashion.

I just can't enjoy the new Star Trek stuff because it just doesn't feel like what I enjoyed from Star Trek which was mostly self-contained episode an optimistic Humanity's future where most issues were talked out

I can't enjoy it because I can't comprehend why they're constantly making prequels that then immediately start loving with the timeline and then adding higher technology than in TNG. There's instantly super transporters and magical Q-tip drives and they're back to loving holograms or whatever. And then re-writing whatever commonly held assumptions people have about the canon or loving time up. Just make a loving sequel. Make something new. Don't pander to my nostalgia by making GBS threads on the klingons, rubbing it a little and then going "they look like this now"

And that might sound like I'm having a brain issue but if the core concept of your narrative is exploring the origins of the federation or whatever horseshit then immediately dumping the plot into an alternate timeline of gummi bear hyper tech it either means you're a liar or you're a lovely writer and a liar.

Yeah disco takes a lot of liberties with the accepted timeline and they’ve never really explained what’s up with the Klingons. I know the FASA source material makes brief mentions of Klingon chimerical stuff but this is a lot to explain.

midway season 1. The tonal shift stuff from gritty moralistic sci fi show to LETS DO A FASCISM was extremely abrupt and not appreciated.

Not to mention, yet again(chronologically the first time), Starfleet's most prized possession is compromised because the admiralty is a bunch of crazy people.

Also I went to see The Last Jedi with co-workers at my last school (all American women, I was the lone guy) and it helped me realize A) how much I hate loud people at the movie theater B) why I never really enjoyed Star Wars and C) that I didn't want to stay at that job. This was one month into my 12 month contract. It was a long rough year.

I just got a nice little lecture from one of my customers for not checking my e-mail or checking my cell phone when I'm off the clock.

"So even though there was an e-mail with 'Time Sensitive Issue' in your Inbox, you don't check your e-mail? And you don't have your name on your voice mail greeting? Is this a new policy that's changed in the 14 years I've been here?"

I barely managed to bite my tongue and not ask her to authorize my overtime in that case.

GIS says it's Marie Antoinette? Have you been talking about cake? Complaining about being misquoted?

Fighting with leftists that jerk off to the guillotine since they actually don't know anything about the French Revolution?

Cavauro
Jan 9, 2008

"Let them eat cake" is the traditional translation of the French phrase "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche", supposedly spoken in the 17th or 18th century by "a great princess" upon learning that the peasants had no bread. This phrase is more accurately translated as "Let them eat brioche", as the original French phrase contains no mention of cake (gāteau). Brioche, a bread enriched with butter and eggs, was considered at the time to be a luxury food. The quotation in context would thus reflect either the princess's disregard for the peasants or her poor understanding of their situation if not both.

While the phrase is commonly attributed to Queen Marie Antoinette, there is no reliable record of her having said it.

Your name is Eat My Fuc, and your custom text is meant to say Let them eat my fuc. It does not say that but is close enough. The reason why my post is copied from Wikipedia is because of them copying my personal notepad files.

look I don't jerk off to my guillotine but sometimes I give it a little kiss and say "soon, sooooon" very quietly.

It's a symbol of a failure, a revolution gone off the rails.

And the guillotine is too good for those who trade in human suffering for a little coin. The rich should be burnt and mutilated. They should fear their death. The image of their predecessors should shake them to the core.

I thought about it some and the text probably does not contain a mistake as I may have led you to believe from Wikipedia. It doesn't necessarily have to say EMF to be relevant and I should not have implied that. Some would even say it would be too on the nose if it were different.
