That's hardly a choice. Mac. I have three of 'em.  ;D

A hot night or a cold day?

I like duck but I prefer guina fowl – stuffed.

TPBM has soft, soft hands.

@aadam101:

This show is really funny.  Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are amazing in it.

I've only seen season one but learning there's a season two and three, I'm really hoping they brought Dolly Parton on for a cameo. Oh, that would make my day!

The reviews have mostly been poor but I liked it well enough.

I'm curious if people who didn't watch Agents of SHIED watched The Inhumans and what their opinions are. I think you need to have the background in order to understand what's going on.

Did anyone else watch? I'm not going to babble my opinion into an empty room but I'd love to discuss it.

In order for me to marry you, first we have to kill my husband and then we will be criminals and happily ever after would be like nil. So however, tempting, No  :funny2: :funny2: :funny2:

Kidding aside, I have the full 15 chapters of that Batman 1943, although I have only watched the first 3 chapters (maybe one of these rainy days, I will have a movie marathon on the last remaining 12 chapters)

Perhaps on an alternate version of Earth Bruce Wayne must kill his husband to become the Batman. You might be missing out on a great opportunity.  ;D

I found those years ago and enjoyed the camp and retro feel. The old Superman TV show was pretty fun too (spoiler: he's fat).

About a different universe, did you watch The Inhumans?

@cteavin:

After today there are fewer than 100 days left this year.

How are you going to make them count?

:mb2:

91 and today left..

Yup, and today I made eggnog for the Xmas Season.  ;D

What was the most illegal thing you have ever done on a computer?

;D

I'll incriminate myself.

I don't know how the topic came up, but the topic was pedophilia and I could not fathom it. I mean, come on, how can or could an adult penis enter into a child? I thought these stories were either made up or an exaggeration.

To find out, I went on the Darkweb through Tor and it didn't take long. It didn't take long. It. Didn't. Take. Long.  :cry2:

Anyway, since it's super illegal to have that on a computer, that's the most illegal thing I've ever done.

@kalayaan:

@cteavin:

BTW, have either of you seen the original Batman from 1943? He's come a long way.

Is this the retro serial that have 15 Chapters and starring Lewis Wilson as Bruce Wayne/Batman? The first one being "The Electronic Brain"?. If yes, then I have only watched Electronic Brain, The Bat's Cave and The Mark of the Zombies.

Would you marry me?
  :urock:

Depends on what we're dong.  :blind:

Travel, sea. Looking at, sky.

Starbucks or literally any other coffee chain?

@spam17:

It depends on the context.

At work, most of us are just interchangeable cogs – the world will go on without us. Sometimes there's a Steve Jobs, dick he was, who do seem to make a difference.

Steve Jobs, a lucky guy..
::)

Best thing about SJ, he hoarded all that money and died of disease; Bill Gates can't give enough money away to help people and will probably live forever in an Android.  ;D

@kalayaan:

I think it's too early to say that, since Ben has yet to release a solo Batman movie (The Batman is still on pre-production)

For Batman movies, I agree with this article

Well, which version excludes the comic book film adaptations. For example, the Batman from the new Harley Quinn movie makes the live-action Batman in Batman & Robin look like Shakespear.  :spank2:

I agree that the Nolan/Bale is the best live-action Batman which has a lot to do with all the character building they were able to do over three films, plus the genius of the director.

I like the Ben Affleck Batman because Affleck is developing his Bruce Wayne. When Bruce Wayne is well constructed then Batman comes alive. I really began to notice just how much Bruce Wayne matters in watching the tv series, Gotham. After four seasons we're finally getting a Batman with a Bruce Wayne and the budding duo is working well.

For that reason, I disagree with the person (sorry I can't see your name from this page) who said that Lego Batman is the best version. Lego Batman may have nailed just how broken a person the character is, which IS very cool, but I prefer either the Affleck or Makinze versions.

BTW, have either of you seen the original Batman from 1943? He's come a long way.

@Dene:

This topic comes up on my list a lot… and I thought about it and i do think it is racist.. simply because of the following

You may generally find you are not attracted to asian/black etc men but  to dismiss every single one, right now, without ever having met all of them is pure racism.. i generally do not like blondes but i cannot go out and say every single blond i have met or will meet in the future is not my type.. that's a lie.. one day i will meet a blonde i think is sexy.. and in the past i have found 1 or 2 sexy, will i actively seek blondes? No, I will not but to dismiss a blond before even seeing their face or even saying 1 word is pure prejudice

same sentiment for me.

it's like saying you would never eat strawberries, while never having tried strawberries to see if you like them or not. and like the others have stated there are better ways to speak your preference and it does come off as close minded. remember these people "internet/grinder/hook-up" people dont know you personally. we only know you from what we've briefly glimpsed in said profile. then yes you gonna get called racist.

Being called racist and being racist are two different things. And the question here isn't one of racism (that one race is better/superior to another), it's of preference.

Grinder, Gaydar, etc. are for hook-ups and generally, you know what you want for a hook up.

If you know you're craving a huge cock and you turn down the guy who says he's small, that's par for the course. If you want good sex with someone experienced and exclude everyone who's either young or just out, that's also to be expected. If your fantasy is, I dunno, a smooth Asian man then a white burley man isn't going to meet it. If there aren't any Asian men available and they wanna try the white twink who's willing, more power to them but in not choosing them they are exercising preference and maybe prejudice, not racism.

Words matter. They matter bigly.  ;D

@Frederick:

There's no excuse for allowing Mateen to slaughter all those people over a 30 minute period before going in to stop him.

Government workers tend to have a "license to loaf" at the county and city levels.

Well, a quick google search shows that people did ask why it took so long for law enforcement to act. The answer I read most often was a variation of

"The answer to whether authorities made the right move by not going in more quickly may rest in two questions: Was this an active-shooter situation or a hostage crisis? And at what point did it pivot from one type of scenario to another?
In active-shooter situations, police are now trained to respond immediately, even if only one or two officers are available to confront the suspect. In a hostage crisis, law enforcement generally tries to negotiate."

Further googling revealed that no investigation was launched after, so no wrongdoing was found.

Hindsight will always be 20/20 in these kinds of situations.

For flavor, the leg; for calories, the breast.

Digital camera or cell phone camera?

@JohnAllenson:

Funny how no one ever tells me my native accent is sexy.

Youtube Video

Hmmm, Canadians always sound like Terrance & Phillip to me.

I've only been in love one time in my life.

Since I ended our eight-year relationship about four years ago, I've not really been interested in dating long-term.

@kenjysn1:

hate and sometimes fear of people with tattoos. the don’t love there body

Depending on the tattoos, they don't love being employable, either.

@Icc:

I have a sweet tat on my left shoulder, multicolred Hebrew design. It's a bitch cuz I'm not supposed to sun to keep the color.

What does it say and why did you get it?

Seems like it's kinda out of sight, outa mind.

I work in healthcare.  A single payer system would likely put me out of a job.  I will find something else to do.

A few years ago a few states decided  to allow plans to be sold across state lines.  Not a single insurer was interested.  The  only way it would work is if the thousands of insurers across the country consolidated into a small number of companies.  That is the opposite of what the GOP is trying to accomplish.

This is really interesting. Working in healthcare you have insight that most of us don't.

From your perspective 1) I The Affordable Healthcare Act working as it should and 2) how do you think it should be amended (or should it be repealed and replaced with something else)?

While on this topic.. the news media twisted that story all to hell.   There are always cops outside that club during operating hours.  A cop noticed Mateen and followed him into the club.  The cops that were inside the club fled when the shooting started.  The swat team surrounded the building.. while Mateen spent over half an hour slaughtering those 50+ people.  ** I guarantee you that many of the victims were shot by the POLICE. ** I don't understand **why they didn't cut electricity to the building to make it so the shooter could not see (and they would have night vision), or shoot in some sort of tear gas, or send in dogs, etc.   **The police were like the Keystone Kops in that incident, and yet the media made them out to be heroes.   It's amazing that all those people were killed, yet not one cop suffered a significant injury.  Hmm….  It's sort of like firemen who wait for a building to be reduced to ashes before doing anything.

Well, this doesn't really touch on the main issue of whether guns should be regulated, outlawed, are making a positive or negative difference but I'll work with what I've got.

It's easy for you and I, who have no law enforcement training, to sit read and speculate after the fact. There are protocols in place for these kinds of situations. When the situation is unprecedented, they look for the closest fit and adapt or apply it. I can not fault the police based on what I've read on the incident.

As for speculating that people were shot by police, unless you have evidence to support that, forensics reports, etc. we must go by what is already public knowledge: Mateen shot those people. Conspiracy theories are fun, kinda like plot crafting when watching a TV show between episodes, but this kind of speculation can take root and create mistrust in local law enforcement, something we need less of.

I'm not sure why you're talking about firemen. You make it sound like they don't do their jobs.
