It's not so much the fear of sunburn, it's that they don't want to get a tan because only people who work outside have them, and they are much too well off for that. I wish I was kidding; Mao somehow managed to create an even worse generation than the one that came before it.

When I was younger my mom just had us carrying around umbrellas to shield us from the sun.

It's better than using lead-based powder to make yourself look like you're pale as European royalty did.

Not to mention the neck where the mask ends? Can you tell when somebody has spent a day in the sun with that thing on?

This has to be one of the fedora clad OKCupid people: http://ask.metafilter.com/242516/Loneliness-and-OKCupid-part-2 "This is very alienating. I live in a walkable area and take public transit and I pass many attractive women when I go anywhere. I don't leer but I politely watch women and enjoy being reminded after many years of celibacy that I still find women attractive. But there is always this undercurrent realization that the odds that any particular woman would work for me are so astronomically low that there's no point in trying. It is painful."

I took my profile down because it seemed like a lost cause and it took too much mental energy to keep up. I had no one to send messages to and I didn't want women messaging me first -- nothing wrong with that by itself but if I haven't messaged you already then there is probably a good reason why. One very nice woman messaged me first but I was not into her and after some agonizing I turned her down. (Second time I've turned someone down in my life, very painful to do, I feel terrible for you women who have to do it all the time.) Maybe he wouldn't be unattractive to women if he didn't have such a lovely attitude and wasn't so goddamn boring.

So, who remembers Kid Nation? This was a reality show whose premise was "Take 30 kids aged 6-16. Drop them in the middle of nowhere. WATCH THEM SURVIVE." There was only one season because CBS realized that "hey, there's a fuckton of legal issues with pulling a stunt like this." If you wanted to watch it, the episode are on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWySM067fRQ&list=PL23B1B7EFE7EB0C5B Highlights from the show included: -One of the 6 year old kids leaving the first day, saying, "I'm not supposed to be here! I'M ONLY 6!" -The camera men/producers doing nothing as an 8 year old stared down and charged an 800 pound bull -The kids deciding to kill their livestock for dinner. -The 16 year olds of the group ruling the town with an iron fist.

My class watched a few episodes of that while reading Lord of the Flies in high school and the comparison is pretty apt. There would have been a number of deaths due if the show had continued.

What's with you guys? There was a Lord of The Flies reality tv show and you can't see the beauty in it! It's like a dumb parody that Family Guy would think up except it was a real show! Nothing sucks and everything is rad.

cowofwar posted:Apparently this guy interprets going on a date with someone as a life-long commitment and feels that he knows someone completely after reading a lovely OKCupid profile. Did he ever post a link to his profile or anything? I wonder how many bizarre standards fall under his vague "broadly similar worldview" category if he honestly believes that no woman anywhere could live up to them. Every time he posts about it he either chooses the relatively innocuous stuff (no kids, not religious) or he makes up some analogy for it (it's like looking for someone who doesn't believe in Santa!), which makes me think he must have some really weird hang-ups he's not telling MeFi.

... Y'know, I'd probably rather have the furry show up at my doorstep proselytizing, if not for the sheer entertainment factor of someone trying to spread the message of Joseph Smith entirely through mime.

FartGhost posted:Dude with weird hair analyses Tom and Jerry, comes to shocking conclusions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZsZJly1tmQ To be fair to that dude as a dude who grew up with/likes cats it did kinda bother kid-me that cats were almost always bad guys, especially in Hanna-Barbera and Warner Brothers cartoons. Apart from maybe the cat in the Pepe LePew cartoons you didn't really have too many cats in a sympathetic light. Course I'm not motivated to post on Youtube about how we need to lock Cartoon Network in an oubliette so that no one can do anything with the Tom and Jerry IP, so maybe I'm just not committed enough to the cause of fictional cartoon cats. vv True but those were never on when I was a kid. (At least, never when I was able to watch TV.) Also I don't really care about the plight of cartoon cats any more, it just reminded me of stuff I'd thought about when I was younger.

The cats in top-cat / boss-cat were the protagonists, and painted in a mostly sympathetic light (they were rogues, but they were lovable rogues).

I love how the intro describes it as some pioneer ghost town, it's part of a movie set where lots of things have been filmed, parts of Thor, 3:10 to Yuma, etc. It's also about 10 miles from Santa Fe, New Mexico.
