What's on the idiot box Part 4 (or something)
Blarghagh replied to LadyCrimson's topic in Way Off-Topic
You mean the first episode that aired yesterday? -
I don't think it's fair to call him Lex Luthor pt 2 because he also uses Kryptonite. That's like saying the police are ISIS pt 2 because they also use guns. Batman uses peoples' weaknesses against them, and Superman's only weakness is Kryptonite. Batman's other villains are weak to being hit on the head really hard and nobody seems to care if he uses that.
-
I'm not sure how else Batman would be able to stand a chance against Superman. It is, by definition, an unfair fight.
-
I believe during the comic con panel they did confirm Bats had kryptonite.
-
This better air somewhere in my country or I'm going to be very cross.

So your argument is "I didn't like how some people grossly misrepresent me or people I like so I'll drag myself down to their level"?
-
That's correct. Still doesn't mean what Bruce said was in any way accurate.
-
No Bruce, that's the point. You're focusing on the wrong thing. It was a strawman poll with minimal results that were practically fixed due to location, context and timing. Teenagers don't say that kind of stuff. The point was when an obviously flawed poll shows teenagers think video games are "sexist", all the game websites jump on it. When a scientific study shows there's no correlation between sexist attitudes and video games, there's crickets, nothing. The poll fits the media narrative and gets clicks, so it gets exposure. The actual study doesn't fit their narrative and doesn't get clicks, so it doesn't. They control the message. And for the record, what you said about people here is a gross misrepresentation. Most of the people here said it would be cool to have more varied game characters as long as they are interesting.

Thats intersting but HOW does it work o.O i mean you don´t really build up much muscle mass to, as an example, compansate for the lack of disc matter in my case. You get more flexible, maybe improve your posture? I´m really curious, my back problems have always been a problem in my life. Edit: oh i see DDP..right..but that is more a workout than yoga...guess its a point of view? :D Yoga isn't just about flexibility. The core of any type of yoga is balance. While DDP has more of a workout factor than other yoga regimens (don't let that fool you, 75% of it is standard yoga moves with cooler names), balance still plays the most important role and yoga certainly helps build muscle. My back problem is curvature of the spine, leading to wide variation in the strength of my core muscles - a massive imbalance. I'm always leaning to one side, so to speak, and my muscles reflect that. I had physical therapy and weight-lifting excercises to try and compensate but it wasn't really effective. DDP Yoga has been a serious help because instead of just strengthening muscles by muscle group wholesale and risk overstraining or injuring my back due to that imbalance (said injuring then leading to breaks, losing progress, demotivation etc., not everyone has the strength of will do pump iron all the time like Woldan ) its bringing my muscles back into balance. I don't know if it'll work for a lack of disc matter though, you might have to consult an expert for that. But it's helped me with other issues too. I had a nasty accident a couple of years ago where I lost a lot of mobility in my (dominant) right wrist and hand that the doctors said I would never get back. But ever since I've been doing DDP Yoga, it's improved in leaps and bounds. I still can't do super complicated stuff like write, but I can grab stuff properly again and even snap my fingers. I'm not the only one who swears by it. I came across it after reading about a dude named Arthur Boorman. Gulf War veteran that was told he'd never be able to walk again, and he credits DDP Yoga with his subsequent recovery and now he's running marathons. Google him, it's very inspiring. I feel like a salesman now... It's not like DDP is the end-all of fitness. Once I have achieved decent balance I'm going to plateau muscle-wise using DDP and Woldan's technique will have better effect (like he said, it's mostly limited to your own bodyweight, DDP uses what he calls "dynamic resistence" which helps a little, but it's not going to be the same as weights). DDP is just very effective for people with problems, and it's helped me a lot so I get enthousiastic about it. It's not a miracle cure. In fact, it surprised me a lot with how goddamn hard it is. You're not just standing around doing weird stretches. But for me it's been worth it so far.
-
Yep, been doing DDP Yoga for a while and it's helped my back more than 3 years attempting to do core excercises.

Then go to prison while mom needs to be taken care of.

They really haven't mastered the whole intelligent, scientific thought thing. Here's some other correlations. We have to ban margerine, it promotes divorce!

"Attacked by a gamer lynch party" =/= "got nasty tweets directed at me" Somebody here needs to grow up.

Remember there will be different degrees of success for countries. In our case it has seen success but our American friends face vastly more different challengers. That include an ineffective mental health system, a large number of mentally unstable people normal to a large population and a market environment where its very easy to get guns Not sure what this has to do with my claim of worldwide? I mean, Anders Breivik didn't exactly live in a backwards nation.
-
A massive worldwide increase in hateful people resorting to shooting up innocents would beg to differ.

Non-draconion like this forum? Our leader pretends to be a dragon!

Seventh Son. When your action sequences are more boring than your considerably boring dialogue sequences, a side-character with two scenes has the climatic battle with the villain, and you need subtitles to understand one of your lead actors you know you did something wrong making your movie.

I watch the maker of said video stream on Twitch a lot and he mentioned he's gotten a share of abuse and death threats for his negative Arkham Knight and Witcher 3 reviews and that happens every time he negatively reviews a popular AAA title.
-
I've actually done both already.
-
Wait. How is my free speech not like yours? In fact i can say what the **** i want, about what the **** i want without less restritcitons than you do, without fearing a goverment agent knocking on my door. I can tell a police officer to **** off with out getting arrested. ****, you are living in a police state that can bring you into prison without much of an offense. I think you are being ironic but i can´t tell, because your link is useless and doesn´t prove anything. :> Really? Here in the Netherlands, it's a crime to insult public servants like police officers. I'm also not allowed to publish anything insulting regarding the royal monarchs.
-
But thats normal. Magazines and press have being doing this for decades. Giving good reviews for publishers in response getting first looks to drive their sales. **** that was the reason why i stoped buying magazine over a decade ago...their online portales are just the same now. I don't think status quo neccesarily equals desired or even acceptable behaviour.

The court of public opinion is not the same as a court of law. One of the reasons for a court is to strip away the emotions and examine the facts. Fair enough, I need to give you a valid analogy ....okay let me think about it. The problem being Cosby hasn't been charged yet Here is a good read that may change your mind http://edition.cnn.com/2015/07/08/us/bill-cosby-sexual-assault-allegations/index.html I'm not saying Cosby has my full support or anything. I just find it weird that you try so hard to justify the fact that you condemned the man far before this information came to light. Even now, your suspicions are at most "likely correct", but then your suspicions were based on nothing. My point is whether or not we decide someone is scum is irrelevant, what matters is what the courts say and the court of public opinion is at odds with that most of the time. Here's something that you might want to think about: http://www.cracked.com/article/96_7-beloved-celebrities-awful-****-you-forgot-they-did/

Well yes, they got "busted". That implies either being caught in the act or a presence of overwhelming evidence. They still deserve fair trial and if such evidence is lacking, they deserve the benefit of the doubt. But if it's just vague allegations against a celebrity that could just as easily be for an out-of-court-settlement payday and to see their lives ruined by the court of public opinion by default before any real evidence is found? Michael Jackson spins around in his grave so fast he's drilling through to China. It's hard to take "allegations" seriously by default in a world where the "Cheeseburger Bill" has to exist and I treat anything I only hear about in the media as allegations with a grain of salt and you should too.
