I've been so smug about not having any idiots on my Facebook, and then someone I kind of knew from school posts this:

Two clicks later, my Facebook is idiot-free for another day.

True.
But in this case the troops have a giant loving fan right behind them.

You can also get a DUI on horseback, but you'd have to be at needing medical attention levels of drunk for the cops to do anything.

Source: guy who rode up on a horse to fix my siding. He rides said horse to the bars (one even installed a hitching post for him) and then climbs back up on the horse and has the horse take him home. The cops won't write a ticket because the horse will override any attempts to drunkenly veer the horse into traffic and the only place the horse is going is home.

To return to topic. Sorry for the buzzfeed link but it summarizes things nicely.

Idiots thought that Spielberg posing with the Triceratops from Jurassic park was him really killing one.

I love this Thor poo poo because it sure fits a hell of a lot better to the actual Ásatrú then most of the comics idiocy. They don't even get him being ginger right. Hell, one of the most famous stories about Þór involves him crossdressing with Loki and going to "his" own wedding to get Mjölnir back.

Seeing as Mjölnir is pretty much just an extended penis metaphor, this comic side emasculation is nothing but a return to the source.

Especially seeing as, I think, most European immigrants work more and pay more tax/take less welfare than the average Brit.

I unironically support this. Every time some shitbag attacks a woman for "ruining gaming culture" Steam, Xbox live, PSN and all the like go down for an hour. Since they are acting like giant children, they should be treated like giant children.

No video games until you can treat women like humans!

I've been to New York City once to visit a friend and was instantly enamored. The whole place feels like Earth's Capital City. Like if we ever run into a situation in the near future where all of humanity joins together under one banner, barring any serious political circumstances I'm certain that New York City will be our Capital.

Statutory rape is fine as long as the rapist is attractive

See that's a lot more acceptable and not as creepy compared to a teacher having sex with someone barely old enough to drive and at the prime for laughing at fart jokes.

Lblitzer posted:

Look, you can have a moral debate about this for the rest of eternity about what constitutes rape but most will say that it's wrong for two adults to have sex with a minor, nevermind that it's your own grade school student.

I'm just wondering when the whole "America is dumb for not letting children drink beer" thing will stop, as if that's a huge problem this country really needs to be focusing on. Hell, most adults shouldn't be drinking alcohol.

The important thing to know about Ebert's reviews was that he judged movies based on what category they fit into. It wouldn't make a lot of sense to rank a superhero movie at the same artistic level as, say, Schindler's List, since they're both trying to accomplish completely different things. So a four-star review from him didn't mean "the greatest of films, exceptional high art", but rather that it excelled at what it set out to do.

I know I'm opening a can of worms with this, but sometimes, if you are a gay in a locker room with strangers, and another lady asks you to adjust her skirt to cover her rear end, sometimes I feel like I should inform them I'm a homo and feel creepy looking at their rear end.

Then again I was raised to hate myself, so.
