When I think of discrimination I think of prejudice against a group (or individuals that are categorized as being part of a group) for possessing characteristics that cannot be changed. The restaurant in the clip isn't being discriminatory against children in general, but rather is making a distinct...

*Never Let Me Go (2010) English flick. Kind of sci-fi in a sense, but in a subtle, intelligent way. Is this the one with Keira Knightley, Carey Mulligan and the new Spiderman? If so, I liked it. Saw it already started the first time so I didn't know what the hell it was about, second time finally w...

I haven't seen it, but many people have told me about the French film Irreversible.

Here is Roger Ebert's review review of it: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbc ... 40303/1023

Yeah this kid wasn't out of control... plane seats are uncomfortable and he needed to move his legs around/stretch, and the only way he could without getting up is to push his feet into the back of my seat. If the kid started poking me in the head or something, though, that's when I'd say something...

Regarding gun control... I dunno. I'm not a gun nut, I don't own a gun and aside from one instance with a friend on a firing range a couple decades ago, I've never fired one and have no desire to own one. I don't think all-out gun control is the answer, however I do think the armchair cowboy mental...

Here is an excerpt from an interview with Buzz Aldrin, one of the astronauts on the mission, that appears in the August issue of Harper's . It is in the OVER THE MOON SECTION. you can click on the magnifying glass in the upper left corner to blow it up. http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt157/silas...

" You actually believe this musical is an accurate portrayal of the Vietnam war?? Are you a vet??" The guy remained calm and explained that he was seeing the show based on the recommendation from friends who thought the show was realistic. After that comment I just shut my mouth and carried on with...

I eat healthy 99% of the time So do I, but I ate a box of these bad boys (the whole box) after my run yesterday. http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt157/silas22/Smiley_Blush.gif http://i607.photobucket.com/albums/tt157/silas22/05565300062l.jpg I wonder if a junk food thread would be as divisive as...

LOL, fuckin' Jaz: Dear Gatherers, It gives me great pleasure to announce the cancellation of the upcoming gigs with The Cult and The Mission. Frankly, playing at a gig with The Cult never appealed to me in the first place. The only reason we allowed ourselves to be talked into it was to blow both b...

Happy Birthday!

As everyone probably already knows, the shooter has been identified. Unsurprisingly, everyone wanted to be first with regard to finding the person's social media site in order to grab a photo. Some poor kid was misidentified as the shooter in record time. As the search continues to grab the first pi...

No wonder Perry became a spokesman for Spotify. He has to get his money from them somehow since, based on the chart, it is not going to be for his music.

It would seem that anyone automatically associating Will with Olbermann are basing it on him taking the GOP to task, failing to recognize that it's because he's more of a classic conservative than an Olbermann style liberal [ Give me strength :bored: ]. Another blanket presumption. I said I thought...

A Canadian court's ruling: "[T]he provisions of the Criminal Code preventing physician assistance in dying violate disabled people’s right not only to equality, but also to life, liberty, and security. She thus opened the door for physician assistance in dying for any grievously and irremediably ill...

What makes you think that Olbermann has a limited perspective of the right when it comes to the Tea Party? Or that the left does as well? Your presumptions kill me. Anyone with a brain knows the difference. Anyone with a brain would have understood my point, which had nothing to do with Olbermann, ...

Yeah, it's pretty funny. I saw the show last night.

I think Comedy Central pressured him. He is probably worried that his show could get cancelled and is trying to contain the uproar.

I am surprised no one mentioned the brew ha ha over the controversy surrounding Tosh O's joke to a heckler: In a now notorious incident, the loutish comic Daniel Tosh directed an off-the-cuff rape joke at a woman challenging him at the Laugh Factory in Los Angeles. The details of the joke are in dis...
