There's rumours going around that Konami are bringing back Silent Hill with two new games and I'm feeling that same horrible hype I used to feel back when I watched WWE when they announced a cool match I knew they'd make dumb somehow.

It's really great. If you've seen A Fistful of Dollars, it was the inspiration for that.

Being labeled a "date rape enthusiast" as a sick burn (later changed to a "I was joking") for being an MMA by someone in D&D is certainly a new low for my experience on this website.

Yes. Go see it. It's a fantastic film (as is most of, if not all, of Kurosawa's films).

I'm also still shocked that Nioh was somehow linked to Kurosawa. Though I'm not 100% certain on the specifics of it.

I did yeah. I don't believe the D&D mods will do anything given how absolutely terrible that subforum is with its liberal use of accusations of people etc.

The full quote was this after I talked about whether or not Joe Rogan endorsing Bernie was good or not and if he (Rogan) was actually relevant to people out in the real world.

quote:

VitalSigns has also conceded like a bunch of times already and it’s weird to see people keep trying to pick a fight with him and then acting like he’s the one who can’t admit he’s wrong.

Are all these people mma fans? Also mma is a sport for date rape enthusiasts. It’s boxing, but for guys who get Mudvayne tracks in their Spotify recommends.

Yeah sorry was phone posting.

Really it was "Joe Rogan endorsed Bernie, that's cool" (which it is) then turned to "Joe Rogan is a nobody, i haven't heard of him outside of SA" then became "Joe Rogan is an idiot who says stupid things (which he does)" to the above.

Yojimbo is straight up one my favorite films of all time, so good and so influential. Basically every "hard nosed drifter comes to town and plays the criminals" story takes inspiration from it in one form or another.

She has 2 channels too. This is the one that has less Korean and is just clips of her cats doing stuff.

She has 7 cats :psyduck:

It's not that kind of test.
I...don't think I liked the first episode of Picard. Just did a re-watch of TNG of perhaps the tonal whiplash was too much. Hopefully I enjoy the rest of the series more.

Good dog, though! (Even though he should be fixed).

In poli-talk my client yesterday was wearing an Infowars shirt and drinking from an Infowars bottle but no one in the clinic except me knew what that was. On one hand I guess it's good that Alex Jones had been de-platformed, but it seemed weird that none of the ten or so people I asked were familiar with his schtick.

Recycling is gonna produce some weird poo poo like that. Sorta like the old bad jokes about African villages all wearing tshirts for super bowl teams that didn’t win. Thanks plastic.

I'm going to watch it after I go and get my lunch. I hope I can disagree with your remark as I'm also watching TNG at night and enjoy it (save for those damned Wesley Crusher episodes).

Also I saw on Wiki a fun little random character from TNG I had totally forgotten about (until this rewatching) shows up in Picard.

Going back and rewatching TNG proves it’s a really hard act to follow. Which I don’t really get since “Put messy people is spaceships and throw them into the sun” worked loving great for seven seasons. Same with DS9 and Voyager. Just train wreck people in tight spaces.

Enterprise blew rear end because they tried to make Star Trek a straight action fantasy show instead of leaning on messy drama.

I hold a soft spot for Enterprise based solely on it's opening credits which were just so damned optimistic/uplifting.

Also I'll never get over the scene of the Zephrym Cochram ship that launches, pops out its warp thruster things and zooms off they borrowed from First Contact. It's such a good visual.

It's like they were saying "I'm going where my heart will take me. I've got faith to believe. I can do anything. I've got strength of the soul. And no one's going to bend or break me. I can reach any star. I've got faith, I've got faith, Faith of the heart."
