  1. Dumb and Dumber and Anchorman are among the best comedies ever made.
  2. Meh. I guess I assumed all offices in Brazil were already like this.
  3. Wow. Broken brain. It's a shame he couldn't have just offed himself.
  4. How 'bout I never watch either one, but I do find and watch the short clip of the relevant RD scene.
  5. Best comment: "Nasty! That chick looks like Steve Perry, circa 1985."
  6. Strange. I like Cable Guy. And I thought The Majestic was terrible. Anyway, all these are worse... Weekend at Bernies 2 Purple Rain Any of the Big Momma's House franchise Independence Day Gone in 60 Seconds Oh God, yes! I thought about suggesting this one, but I didn't know if it counted as "major." Anyway, it really truly is awful. I actually saw it in the theatre (who knows why) and I left just amazed that that was allowed to be released. Just a ridiculous mess.
  7. Really really bad song to have stuck in your head: Takin' it to the Streets by the Doobie Brothers.
  8. Maybe once, maybe twice. Maybe chicken soup with rice?
  9. You could at least cover your mouth when you Pretty inconsiderate. Are you trying to infect the whole thread with your mutant virus?
  10. Last year, I used their internet streaming version of NFL Ticket. I’m undecided whether I will go with that again. I'm leaning towards probably not. CON: - Way over-priced ($350 for the season) - Quality of streaming is poor compared to what I’m used to from Netflix & Youtube. - There were times when DTV’s website had links messed up or had “Service Not Available” errors which caused me to miss big chunks of games. (Of the 16 games, I’d say I missed half of the kickoffs because they did not have the links ready to go until well after 1pm. A few times the service would be unavailable for like 30 minutes plus during a game.) - Their customer service was beyond poor to the point of being insulting. You have to do some research just to find a way of contacting them. Then they basically tell you that you have zero recourse for any service issues. They said their policy is absolutely no refunds or discounts, period! They admitted that they had many errors on their end which caused whole quarters of games to be missed, but they would not offer me any compensation at all. They said I could cancel, but that I would forfeit the entire amount that I had paid for the full season. PRO: - I get to see Bills games (kind of)
  11. The word does cause a lot of pain. I’ve witnessed it first hand. I worked for a while at a group home for adults with developmental disabilities. Several times, I’ve been with a group in a public place and had someone toss that word out and I’ve afterwards tried to comfort a person who was brought to tears by it. I’ve also seen it when a group of people are just hanging out at home, watching a movie and a character suddenly busts out with that word. Believe me, it has a powerful effect! They know what it means and they feel it in a big way. It’s hurtful. It carries as much menace as any word in our language. I’ve also witnessed how the word actually gains power by its suppression (Lenny Bruce was right about that). In the group home environment, that one word is so forbidden, it takes on a power that is way out of proportion. I understand how some people see it as an example of PC-ness run amok. In the end though, for me, the hurtfullness trumps everything else. In the PG world of popular movies, tv shows, sports, etc... I think the word should be eliminated as much as possible. I’m not advocating censorship, just good taste, consideration and common sense. Lebron’s initial comment I see as a slip--not really a huge deal. But then his non-apology shows his true colors (dick).
  12. I think for this analogy to work, you have to imagine that the gardner is gay, since Toronto has somehow taken the Bills away even though they apparently don't even want them. In any case, this thread is a masterpiece of confusion.
  13. "Who's..." not "Whose..." Aw, forget it.
  14. We all go a little mad sometimes. Haven't you?
  15. I understand why people love dogs so much. But why do they like us? By the way, my dog also has cover ops training, as a Timecop. She is retired now, but she has singlehandedly saved the world several times. That’s her as my avatar. Do not look directly into her eyes for too long or she will conquer your mind.
  16. Nice! Those pics of the pooches in sunglasses are freaking awesome.
  17. Where are the pics of your friend's sister, her boyfriend's brother's girlfriend, that guy's girlfriend and the girl who heard about the thing?
