That commercial is stupid, unless the writers meant for Colonel Sanders to look like a dwarf compared to his amour.
QuoteAnyhow, I guess your avatar is over my head, unless it's African. One question, does it have anything to do with fish?

You might as well pull "your heart will tell you what is true" out of a fortune cookie. It is eggshell existentialism. Where is the allowance for faulty perception and the obligation for constant toughening self-examination and reappraisal, the possibility of good-faith error, of honorable failure, of redemption?
QuoteBigger-picture, where is the understanding that absolute truth is perceived dimly, through a glass darkly, and that whole philosophies that try to capture it and for which men fight and die in one generation are despised in the next -- I will probably misquote Tennyson here but
Our little systems have their day,
They come and go and cease to be.
They are but broken lights of Thee,
For Thou, O Lord, art more than they.
It is what permits the Western man to stand outside of himself and laugh and make allowances for himself and others but still persist as best he knows.
QuoteI don't know you from Adam or from what culture you hail but I hope you understand that in my culture engaging you directly and forcefully is intended as respect, and that an equally forceful reply showing me where I'm wrong is the best thing I can hope for.

Quote from: K_Dubb on August 08, 2019, 01:31:42 PMSean isn't up on Canadian lingo either, just anger and jealousy.
I don't think so. Bart made at least one dig at him that I remember shortly after that incident. Plus Bart has always been nice to me while Sean knows what I think of him.

HW is a broken record. At least Art's bumper music is worthy of a broken record replay, and, of course, what else can HW do? Broken record 3-ways? :
But 10min.+ of unpaid fake commercials per hour is another broken record stealing our precious time away, and Roswell is even worse.

Quote from: Tangerine on August 07, 2019, 06:37:29 PMIt was a joke, squirrels stole my 3 Musketeers bars one Halloween, did they pay with their rodential lives?
I keyed in the url and looked at that link. Her hand looks like a peg leg thing.
Chocolate has theobromide in it, which is potentially fatal to cats and dogs. Not sure what it would do to rodents. But if it is safe, it could be rolled into suet or smeared onto a new suet cake. If we had any. I'm not even sure how I feel about feeding refined syrup to hummingbirds - I think real flower nectar has nutrients...
Quote from: At the stroke of midnight on August 07, 2019, 10:25:24 PMBut their key holidays and celebrations have nothing to do with battles against the US. No one celebrates Pancho VillaDay, they do celebrate the 16th of September (independence from Spain) and Cinco de Mayo (defeating France at Puebla).
Last night I heard George say one of the dumbest things I have ever heard him say. He asked the first guest why doesn't the US just take over Mexico. That already happened, Bozo. It was called the Mexican -American War. It didn't work out that great for Mexico, did it? What it did do was leave a very bad taste in the mouths of Mexicans, and a seething hatred of Americans. At some times overt, but much more often, just barely under the surface.
QuoteGen. Ulysses Grant also expressed the view that the war against Mexico had brought punishment on the United States in the form of the American Civil War:
The Southern rebellion was largely the outgrowth of the Mexican war. Nations, like individuals, are punished for their transgressions. We got our punishment in the most sanguinary and expensive war of modern times.
The philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson shared Grant's view; towards the end of the war he wrote: "The United States will conquer Mexico, but it will be as the man swallows the arsenic, which brings him down in turn. Mexico will poison us."

But you outed members' prior avatar names. Talk about corruption.

How this thread devolved into ridicule of the disabled, is beyond me. I expected more from you.
Quote from: K_Dubb on August 07, 2019, 05:46:23 PM
Yes. The self-assurance is completely alien. To be human is to doubt, to struggle, to question -- that goes back at least to Socrates. From that springs tolerance (the other guy might just know better than you) and individual liberty (who am I to tell someone else what to do?) and laughing at yourself, the sweetest laughter of all.
Quote from: Tangerine on August 07, 2019, 07:08:18 PMChristianity is also not Jesus, how could it be? It's as prone to the ills of the temple as any other human construct.
Christianity is not slavery. When one woman accused her sister of not pulling her weight, Jesus stood up for the "slacker".

No one is going to vote for this gun grabbing faggot that failed to build a wall and abandoned his base it's over he lost.
Quote4/8 chan helped him meme him into the presidency and we did it for free. 4chan/pol/ has went to shit it's barely worth reading anymore all the original meme warriors have left and it's overrun with faggots. There will be no 2016 repeat Trump killed any chance of reelection with his zionist gun grabbing agenda. He was never /ourguy/ he just larped as one then sold us all out.
Quote from: Dr. MD MD on August 06, 2019, 09:50:09 PMIt's war - don't confuse one battle retreat with a total loss yet.
You may be (probably are) right but I’m not entirely convinced of this yet. It would be sad to see it all collapse now just as the rest of the world is catching on.

I do not know any Japanese people, unfortunately. I do know a lot of Chinese, Koreans, and Indians, however, and I would say they are more likely to get involved in your business than I am comfortable with for what must be cultural reasons.
QuoteIt's difficult to be really good friends with anyone who doesn't share what I'd call the (particularly late Western) concept of existential irony, i. e. the knowledge that one's being is, to some degree, ridiculous. That "gung ho" is an imported word is not coincidental; it is impossible for a Westerner to be truly gung ho about anything, and I think it is this natural self-doubt that keeps us out of each other's way.
