I randomly chose an apologistic book about Caligula to report on that attempted to view him in a unbiased light way back when I was in school. It was alright.

Might have been this. Pretty much everyone who wrote about the dude who actually knew what went down is on the record as hating him, which is evidence that he was everything people tend to think about him. But it could also be evidence that maybe he wasn't quite all that bad and just pissed off the type of people who wrote about things back then.

I'm not actually recommending this book but it's about that other thing that's way over analyzed and not WW2 so...

You should get one of the books about the lesser known Emperors. There is one on Constanius II that is really good and loving Maximus Thrax is getting a book later in the year despite ruling for like ten minutes in one of the harder to understand eras.

I love your complaint that if you strip a everything from a movie it becomes to simple.

Like fury road has a plot and it's fairly complex for an action movie.

I'm not familiar with that game. When you said fantasy you don't mean like a wizard and elf provided color commentary?

I think that was were they just got some random dudes to commentate and they gave the game the respect it deserves.

Doltos posted:

It doesn't segregate anyone. Segregation is when you force separation. People choose to post in divisional and fun threads because that's what they want to do.

The much better explanation is MorningView is a total moron that was given the moderator keys by a creepy stalker and disagreed with all our fun stuff because he's a total moron

Or maybe MV was a lovely mod that killed division threads for dumb and/or imaginary reasons and made sure everyone posted in one huge gently caress off thread so when your average poster logged in to check out TFF they were treated with having to wade through 30 loving pages a day to find any discussion about their team and they got sick of it and stopped logging in and now we have a dead gay forum...

I came in at the tail end of the old divisional threads but I remember the AFC South posters seemed to all be ridiculously chill with each other, although everyone who wasn't a Colts fan would complain about Peyton. It was like the exact opposite of the NFC South where everyone hated each other no matter what.

There weren't many divisional threads because they were quashed pretty quick. AFCW and AFCN were the biggest ones. The others were weak offshoots that weren't given a chance to grow.

He pays over 1.2 million in allimony and child support a year and hasn't made a movie in a long time. From everything I've read he's tapped out and trying to get that amount reduced.

From what I have read he is still making a good income.

Not his hey day but still pretty good, even after alimony.

Edit: I mean it is a bit much but the internet is exaggerating it a lot for their own purposes.

This whole discussion is middle class liberal as gently caress.

No one had changed political affiliation based on violence and historically violence is the most effective way to stop something.

Ignoring it is how you make something stronger, let's it take root.

It's basically a way to feel morally superior without doing anything.

Drama does tend to stay in the same area and doesn't spill out most of the time. If you don't visit the forum in question it will only come up in passing.

Which is a good thing I think.
