when will these monsters quit with the body-shaming?

this is always one of the most poignant sets of posts of the year imo

definitely my favourite member of the 27 club

wd like to do a thread looking at the tropes used and some of the "emotional" expectations expressed on all these polls but tbh it'd probly look a lot like mean-spirited meta so i'll just leave it and express a kind of wry bemusement coupled with enjoyment that humans are very very different to each other over in the second thought thread instead

on facebook, not ilx

"When Bill Clinton was president he passed something called the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act, bragging at the time that it would "end welfare as we have come to know it." In Hillary Clinton's 2003 book, "Living History" she boasted that she and Bill had caused welfare rolls to "drop 60 percent" but poverty didn't decrease during this time. This bill, like every conservative austerity measure, mostly hurt women and children.

Recently Hillary Clinton gave a glowing review to Henry Kissinger's book. She mentions that he is a "friend" and that she "relies on his counsel." Kissinger spearheaded the United States' undermining of Chile's democratic government in 1970. He encouraged the CIA to promote a coup, which put the dictator Augusto Pinochet in power. This is just one of the awful things he did. It's hard to find anything positive about his legacy.

Every national politician is compromised. I like Obama, but I could point to a bunch of awful things he was complicit in. It's fine to vote for Hillary Clinton as an alternative to whoever the awful right wing candidate is going to be, but I think it's a mistake to pretend that she or her husband have ever been progressives. Bill Clinton was basically a conservative."

I'm pretty sure people aren't coming to watch a Marvel superhero series to get their gorn kicks.

yeah, that's what star trek is for

Can't believe that everyday I happily read ilx without logging in, and everyday I then read a rap thread and have to take 30 seconds to set cookies to 'accept', log in, and FP the same stupid motherfucker.

^glad it's finally taking off

Did you guys ever see Neil Simon's Plaza Suite? Funny use of "Cool it" in that. (Broadway, 1968)

it was good but I'm waiting for michael Keaton in the Matthau role obv

so gutted i was at work and missed out on the chance to do the obvious early post itt

once again i miss the window to quit posting

;_;

:)

are you feeling guilt or shame about missing that window?

if we spray painted 'SHAME' onto the grass at one end of the National Mall and 'GUILT' onto the grass at the other end, where exactly in between the two ends would you land your gyrocopter?

keep hearing 'shame' to the tune of "a change will do you good" by sheryl crow

hmm. chagrin?

nah, plain old embarrassment

missed the news/ allusion (again missing things)

In his interview with the paper, Hughes said “I’m not suicidal” but added that “no sane person would do what I’m doing” and said he had “thought about walking away from this whole thing because it’s crazy”.

shoulda walked away

wish i had a gyrocopter

i thought to myself yesterday morning, "Was George C. a hipster?"

ffs man do you ever shut up?

good rule of thumb is that you never enter a thread if you don't know where all the immediate exits are and you should always sit facing the door

also sit near enough to the plane of the doorway, so that you stay out of jjj's vision cone

surprised to see that this phrase has also appeared in the Guardian and the first line of a Harry Potter fanfic, as well as numerous other locations

so it's like all that prog crap you like

great like how the bubonic plague was a great plague

what's it like being captain obvious irl - you seem to be appearing in commercials for hotel booking websites of late, guess that's gotta be good for your brand

Lol stfu you mealymouthed socksniffer

we all like to congratulate ourselves

You're all idiots, but whatever

at the end of the day we're all characters in uncle vanya

(Clicked on this thread thinking it was EMP Pop Conference 2015 and was wondering what the heck at happened)
