    I saw the descendants on Saturday. I'm going to give you a short little take: Really poorly put together beginning and a strong finish that leads me to say that I rec this movie. I liked it. I liked it even though i'm damn tired of all these hollywood movies about really rich people feeling isolated and having trouble relating to your kids. STOP WRITING WHAT YOU KNOW.
  2. Dude, i'd love to have orton back. Maybe he's changed, but I used to love getting the pictures of him drunk as hell with stains all over his shirt.
  3. Also, gronkowski doesn't appear to be afraid of getting hit, unlike Olsen.
  4. Hahaha. All is justified. The same lack of accountability you so decry in teachers unions is a matter of intense justification for the police. They can never be wrong, they can never be punished.
  5. "I'm going to stab you" "ok" i see nothing wrong here.
  6. anyone doing the chicago turkey trot?
  7. it's technically a food product!
  8. Q3 GDP revised downward to 2.0 growth.

    QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Nov 22, 2011 -> 01:05 AM) If you like boring shows that are basically there to say "wasn't it crazy that people lived like this back in the past?" idiotic.

    nonsense, mad men was great from the beginning.
  11. Gore is so good he is better than himself...at everything.
  12. I'm having difficulty finding news on tahrir square. It seems encouraging that despite the deaths, the government is being...responsive, i guess? people are stepping down over it. Thoughts go out to those young people trying to change their country.
  13. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 05:49 PM) The target itself doesn't need to be the reason the violence happens. And yes, I have no reason to believe that police just happen to walk up to a random group of people and begin assaulting them for no reason at all. I have been at plenty of protests, very large, and very small, and have never seen the police react violently. Heck, even at times where people probably deserved a baton upside the head, they haven't gotten it. Meh, they are given orders to remove the protestors. They come across a group of a bunch of college kids sitting down. They tell them to move then immediately pepper spray the s*** out of them and then still muscle them into the ground and put handcuffs on them and the police say what...successful operation. The problem now is that there is no accountability in police depts. It is too "protect your own", and the hardest punishment that seems to be given out is suspensions.
  14. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 04:45 PM) The Packers are gonna put 40 on them Thursday. We owe them one. Please do.
  15. Lots of teams seem to "come back to life" against the Panthers D. The panthers scored a ton of points on that vaunted Lions D, 2 games in a row of 35+ pts against.
  16. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 05:27 PM) Contrary to ss2k5, I don't think they are intentionally getting themselves beat and sprayed. They didn't highlight abusive authority--the police did by carrying out these actions. I think they are, but beside that, they are holding up police brutality as their rally points, not the occupy original message.
  17. The bears D giving up a lot of yards has been a staple for years. They haven't given up a sack in like 3 games after giving up 29 or however many in the first 5. That's no because jay cutler is just avoiding them. It's because lance louis has been amazing.
  18. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 21, 2011 -> 05:23 PM) My argument has been all along that you are watching it. I don't disagree with you on the blocking intersections and bridge marches, but the actual camp break ups i don't think was meant for this.
