Guard Dog Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Balloons with Get Well usually aren't held by the sick individual, no? Unless the deer was killed by someone that didn't appreciate the sentiment. That was actually a thing that started in Australia a few years ago. Someone put a balloon on some kangaroos killed crossing the road. Someone took a picture, a few other someones had a snit and a new "thing" was born. I don't know why but it just struck me as funny. I guess that says something about me, I'm not sure what exactly but something.

the_dog_days Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 ^I know jack about Black Panther, but that poster has 70's sci-fi written all over it. Valerian style.

Just from the poster, it looks more interesting than anything MCU has put out to date. Let's put it this way, the central setting is a small country in Africa that happens to have had ultra-advanced super-science beyond the rest of the planet, but no-one else is really aware of that fact. They have giant holographic shields to fake out modern day satellites, and closed / protected borders that don't allow outsiders easy access.. But at the same time of haviing all this advanced technology, they manage to successfully combine it with the supposed best parts of tribal, clost to nature lifestyle and attitudes, while also having good ethics, morality and human rights.

Pidesco Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Well, the magical enlightened society is kind of pushing it, but there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for the economic and scientific advancement of Wakanda: Vibranium. It's an insanely valuable super hero metal that solves all sorts of technological problems, which exists exclusively in Wakanda. The existence of the metal is of course comic book silliness, but if that existence is taken at face value, then the economic and tech level of Wakanda is perfectly reasonable.

It would explain economic advancement if they would sell it, but from what was shown in MCU they don't. So how a resource that is not sold to anyone translate to economic advancement? I would posit that it is sold only under the most stringent of conditions. I would assume that all or most of the great technical breakthroughs in the MCU are enabled by Vibranium. I imagine some hefty government agreements were made between the US and Wakanda in order to get the materials required by stuff like the helicarriers and whatnot.

Hurlshort Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 In the recent Spider-Man, they had crates full of all of the Avenger's equipment, so I would guess there are a lot of those shields. But then again, it's just a fun comic book universe and we shouldn't look too hard at the man behind the curtain. ;-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pidesco Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Nah, we should look right in the eyes of the man behind the curtain until he mumbles uncomfortably and breaks into a cold sweat.

Amentep Posted October 18, 2017 Author Share Posted October 18, 2017 Nah, we should look right in the eyes of the man behind the curtain until he mumbles uncomfortably and breaks into a cold sweat. That only leads to him handing you out things that prove you already had what you thought you didn't have and needed all along. Then he jumps into a hot air balloon and departs, accidentally. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teknoman2 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 9 The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did. Modern democracy is: the sheep voting for which dog will be the shepherd's right hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azdeus Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 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.

injurai Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 So, basically don't talk to women at all in the street. I generally don't talk to anyone (regardless of their sex) on the street unless I'm asking for help, or there is something to collectively comment on that is external to both participants. Like a dog holding up traffic or something. Seems to be pretty general social practice. I think day to day there isn't much reason to impose yourself out of the blue on a stranger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
