And how many kids our age rented Porky's and other sex comedies on VHS (or watched them on cable) back in the day?Legion1979 wrote: ↑Sat Jul 09, 2022 8:07 am Well, it IS PG-13.
It's amazing the kind of stuff I watched as a child in PG movies back in the 80s. Meanwhile, violent rated R movies like Robocop and Terminator 2 had toy lines for children.

See I think that's kinda fucked up. Porky's for christsake! But I was an outlier, I didn't see stuff like Robocop, Terminator, Rambo, etc. etc. until I was in my late teens and early 20s. My folks didn't mind me seeing heavy subject matter as long as the violence wasn't super gory/over the top and not too lewd. Course, I'll never forget seeing Stripes at 12...

Trying to go out and do anything with my brothers and sister. It's impossible. Yet another summer is almost over and we've hardly been able to go anywhere. The only viable day that we're all available and have 'disposable' money is every other Thursday, and every freaking time something goes wrong. Today we were going to the Tennessee Aquarium, but COVID is bad right now, so that's not a good idea. We decided to go to the Chattanooga Zoo instead. Rain: HA HA HA FUK U. *sigh* We're just going to play Ticket to Ride again. Can't complain too much about that, I guess; it's a fun game.

People being called "incels" over stupid reasons. It's no different than calling someone a "Nazi" or "fascist" just because they don't like communism. I know that incels are low-life virgin misogynists, but assuming somebody is an incel just because they criticize or are not a fan of a female YouTuber, artist, singer, politician, etc. or didn't like a movie that was written/directed by a woman is ridiculous.

It makes more sense when you realize the people you're talking about use language to manipulate, not to communicate.CrimsonBloodX wrote: ↑Sat Aug 13, 2022 10:25 am People being called "incels" over stupid reasons.

All those terms just mean "outgroup" to them. You can be a married man in love with a healthy, active sex life, and to them you're still an "incel" if you do, say, or even possibly think something that puts you in the category of "the others."

Yeah, pretty much. They can be cute and endearing when they want to, but so much of their time is spent whining for attention or food they won't actually eat, shredding furniture, murdering butterflies and lizards and leaving them all over the yard, shitting everywhere except their litterbox, and covering every square inch of your house in hair. No thanks.

Pitbulls are wonderful animals, so long as they aren't raised by abusive assholes.

Every time I read something about a person being mauled or killed by a dog, it's always a pit bull. It can't be the owners fault every time. Killing is part of this breed's very instinct. I dont believe this is a breed of dog that should be a pet. Again, too many people die (or are horribly maimed) by these things for it to be the fault of its owner in every instance.
And I didn't say dogs aren't wonderful, Voyager. Just this particular breed

Well, that's another thing. I really feel sorry for any dog breed that's been bred to have a pushed in face (brachycephalic is the term). Those poor things have such a hard time breathing and have such poor quality of life.

Only a true pet lover would understand that both are great. There is no winning side in the cat and dog debate.

It pisses me off that in this day and age cynicism is conflated with wisdom. It happens more than ever before it seems.
