Malcador Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) Most of the time anyone spends significant amounts of time deriding people who aren't hard enough, it always seems that they are the kind of "I have 'Can't be Touched' playing on loop in my head' type of paper badasses Edited January 16, 2019 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

Lexx Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) I just lol'd hard, because Google has rolled out new adverts on their site. If you're searching something, the first thing that happens is a full screen of adverts that looks almost identical to the normal search results. Apparently this isn't live everywhere yet, but gets activated step by step. Â Example: Â ^ First row is adverts. On the normal keyword search, it really fills my whole screen with adverts and I'll have to scroll down to reach the actual content. Â This stuff is pissing me off. Hopefully the advert blockers are updated soon... Edited January 18, 2019 by Lexx 1 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

Chilloutman Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Fight Club is one of those movies that just gets more and more relevant. It had toxic masculinity pegged ages ago. Â Fight club have nothing to do with toxic masculinity lol, you don't get that movie t all if you think so xD I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blarghagh Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 What are you talking about? Fight Club is a literalized parody on why the manly man ideal is just another uniform you're forced to wear by peer pressure and eventually leads you to cause destruction. Members of project mayhem don't even get a name, leading all the manly men who join fight clubs right back to the empty disillusionment that our nameless narrator starts with. Well, except for, you know, Bob, who has breasts and isn't manly enough so pretending otherwise gets him killed. The book goes even further, where in the end the narrator is institutionalised because being Tyler Durden, the narrator's anthropomorphic personification of manliness (who is the villain) is a literal mental illness. Â I'd get into it more but I'm really not in the mood considering this place's track record. Go check out Folding Ideas' video on the topic, he explains it well enough. Â Â If that's not enough, go ask the author. Â Edit: Used the word literal too often. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guard Dog Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I saw this last night... thought some of you would appreciate it:  You bring Kirk if you want to win a fight. You bring Picard if you want to win it without fighting You bring Janeway if you want to win a battle. You bring Sisko if you want to win a war  You bring Archer if you want to kill off a good thing... 4 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You bring mirror Lorca if you want to win bending the rules. You bring mirror Georgiou if you want to win a war you are losing badly.

Hurlshort Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 That seems self absorbed and insecure at the same time. In reality there is a very small circle of people that have any idea who I am, and if their version is dramatically different than the one in my head, then I either need to communicate better or be less deluded. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azdeus Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Yeah, there's alot of things the majority of my friends, even close ones, don't know about me. That quote really doesn't seem anything special to me, it's a certainty of life unless you blab about your secrets and wishes to anyone you know. 3 Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.
