FlamingLiberal posted:And another film with a black, female protagonist who is portrayed in a mostly positive light. Yeah I don't believe for a second Tarantino is racist or even bigoted. I was about to say that the people complaining about this have likely never watched Jackie Brown - which happens to be my favorite Tarantino film.

Walter posted:And Sundays. It's like NPR (at least in my area) goes into full parody mode for what conservatives *think* NPR is all the time - obnoxious, self-satisfied upper-crust liberal bullshit. "The Splendid Table," "On Being," "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me," and "Prairie Home Companion." Thank you for posting this - I couldn't agree more. Most of NPR's non-news programming makes me feel embarrassed to be a white, middle class person working an office job.

See the thing is, the movies he may have been in lately are "blah", but I don't think that discredits his performances at all. Like Tom Cruise, even if you hate Nic Cage, I would argue that I haven't ever seen either of them phone in a performance. No matter how lovely the role, they always act their asses off, and this holds especially true to Cage.

Devour posted:Bill Maher will actually engage in an honest a debate with somebody, and he's also very vocal and opinionated about his views unlike Dumb & Dumber on comedy central. He's no more irreligious nor sexist than the average celebrity in Hollywood and I also enjoy how he consistently trashes the terrible infrastructure of America along with Healthcare as a whole when compared with other first world nations. How are TDS and Colbert not opinionated/vocal?

bobservo posted:Did anyone watch Judge's The Goode Family? It seemed a little mean-spirited to me. I did, and it definitely felt more like a mean-spirited bizzaro world King of the Hill at times. Often the daughter character would play the "voice of reason" (same goes with the grandpa) and honestly I think of Greg Daniels had been involved, it would have been a lot better.

ReindeerF posted:There's an attorney in Houston (or at least was) who all the other attorneys use and his entire specialty is getting people off of DUIs. Like that is 100% of his caseload and apparently he's very good. I asked him once what basic advice he gives to clients who get pulled over when they think they're intoxicated. He said, "Do absolutely nothing. Be courteous and friendly, but don't answer any questions, don't blow, don't take tests - nothing. Then call me." It sounds like what any criminal attorney would say, probably, so it kinda makes sense. I will try to take a picture next time I pass it, but on Washington where there are tons of bars now there's a giant billboard near Shepherd/TC Jester that has like "713-DONT-BLOW" and the name of the attorney on it.

Dirk the Average posted:Be somewhat fair, he said elective plastic surgery. Reconstructive surgery is done under the guidance of a doctor after a disfiguring injury and wouldn't fall under what he says. True, the same doctor who fixed my thumb after my dog bit it causing it to split down the middle to the knuckle also does tons of boob jobs, and did a truly amazing job on my thumb. I asked him what percentage of his patients are there for elective surgery and he said at least 70, but he said he loves working on hands more than anything and plastic surgeons have medical bills to pay.

I think women could definitely play in the MLB as there is almost no physical contact (player to player), and technique is almost everything huge part of it - the hitting leader last year is the shortest active player (Jose Altuve, a stocky 5'5"). I think one of the issues is that women usually grow up playing softball mostly, which is similar, but not really the same. Why the PGA isn't fully integrated is beyond me. I think it's because ultimately a sport that is usually completely dominated by white males would be decimated by the sheer golfing power that resides in Korean women.

That Bill Hicks bit about "God's image" is spot on with regards to Kim Davis/my dumpy shitbucket white trash extended family. If there was a God, he should have that woman spontaneously transform in to a screaming pile of fire and melting flesh. It would definitely make a believer out of me.
