They don't make movies like that anymore :(
Uh....does Trump really want Hulk Hogan of all people working for him? Hulk is better off being retired and promoting wrestling.
Thanks :)
Oh boy is that very true, particularly in Hollywood where you don't have job security. Only reason people like Ellen can get away with it is they can retire wealthy and do whatever they want, but they will have to deal with fading into obscurity and not being famous anymore, even with a rich legacy left behind.
I think they're just gonna be taught morals that have their roots in Christianity, and maybe a few Bible verses that relate to some lesson. In a public school setting those things make more sense than teaching the actual Bible, because that goes into the theology sphere.
And they <i>hate</i> Christianity. Oh <i>boy</i> do they hate it. And having to teach such values to kids instead of how to be one of them? I suspect many are either gonna quit or protest heavily.
America is just fine having a woman leader. The poops in Washington should just stop sending us crappy candidates from the Democrap party! We need a woman leader with brains, extensive knowledge of politics both here in America and abroad, and isn't afraid to stand up for our country. So far, every female candidate we've gotten has been nothing other than a publicity stunt for the Left. The few suitable females on the Right either don't want the job, or their campaigns get sabotaged by insidious tricks from the Left.
So that's why she came up with that name? I remember hearing that she chose to use it because it was so unusual and was designed to make people laugh when they heard it. Didn't know she had gas issues, which would explain a lot about her.
That's a common thing when ego and narcissism take hold in a person who's become famous. They see themselves as living a real-life video game, where they work their way up the levels, and want nothing to do with people they see as "far too low in level" to bother with, despite working with such people on a daily basis. The A-listers (particularly in Hollywood and the political realm) only want attention from other A-listers, people who are above them on the food chain, and specific audiences that are fans of theirs; not lowly roadies and set workers.
It's hard to say. Usually people with sock accounts aren't as clever as they <i>think</i> they are and don't bother changing their personalities or habits, so you end up being able to figure them out pretty quickly. Flannelfungus doesn't feel as harsh as Skrod was, but he's still an asshole. Unless the latter upped his Limey Swine game of trying to pass himself off as someone else, I don't think it's him.
Can you imagine how many members of the Rainbow Reich working as teachers, or the atheists working in schools are gonna flip their lids over this? Pass the popcorn!
"Quigley Down Under," in 2002 when we got our very first DVD player. Both the DVD and the player were gifts from a friend of my dad's, and the DVD was meant to be used for testing, but we also love the movie, so there's that.
Sure. Trouble is, the rot will seep back in, so it might take more than one cleansing.
I heard Faye Dunaway was like this in her later years, and it seems to be a common theme for Hollywood Divas in general. I was curious as to why they'd care so much if people were looking at them, and I read that it's usually for two reasons:
1.) It's a way for A-lister stars to assert power over those who have none.
2.) Some stars claim they are introverts that get overwhelmed when too many eyes are on them in one place too long.
In some ways, reason #1 comes off as really sad and petty, all things considered. There's a reason Hollywood Divas, even the talented ones, eventually stop getting work. They make life almost impossible on set because of all their stupid demands and bratty behavior.
I find reason #2 somewhat dubious, because most introverts out there are camera-shy, and aren't fans of being the center of attention all the time. But yeah, some introverts, particularly the empathic ones, have issues with being surrounded by people all the time, and having all the attention on them for too long truly is overwhelming. One reason I don't buy Ellen's similar reasoning is because she's as much an attention whore as she is a diva. I think she really just wanted a certain <i>kind</i> of people's eyes on her, not the lowly people working behind the scenes that she considers beneath her. You don't star on two different shows, do work in several movies, represent makeup companies, smear your face all over the tv and social media, and then claim to be an introvert. Doesn't really pass the smell test.
I haven't liked them since the mid-2000s, when they dumped on Bush for fighting terrorism, and later on turned into The Cult of Obama. It was <i>really</i> disgusting, watching the media fawn over that guy like he was a god.
I kept wondering if they had built shrines to Obama in every lamestream media HQ or studio and had a gold statue to him set up, where you showered money at his feet for offerings and kissed him on the ass for good luck. It wouldn't surprise me if they had.
I love this and the first "Back to the Future" movie. The second one sucks worse than the vacuum of space. Only reason one would need to watch it at least once was to know the connection between the first and the third, but otherwise, #2 stinks.
Number 3 was a breath of fresh air after #2. My mom is a Mary Steenbergen fan, and we all love Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox, so this was one of the 80s movies I grew up with. It's really funny, seeing them interpret Hill Valley in the 1880s, and I love the Old West tropes. Plus, it was really sweet seeing an older nerd like Doc fall in love. You don't tend to see pairings like that in movies anymore. It was fascinating watching just how wild and dangerous Biff Tannen's ancestor could be without a strong law enforcement presence to keep him in check (and you could tell the actor was enjoying the role too). I particularly loved watching the Doc become a badass, while Marty introduces 1980s culture to the 1880s people, hehehe. And what is more epic than crazy things happening on an exploding train?
One cool aspect of this hobby you're taking part in is, your daughter's gonna have the benefit of learning where some popular cultural tropes came from. It seems horror movies have a <i>huge</i> influence on pop culture, even outside the horror genre. If you ever show her "Ready Player One," she'll know <i>exactly</i> what the Chucky bomb is all about, lol xD
I like both, though I lean more towards eating the softshell than the hard shell. I also tend to eat ground beef more so than chicken.
My experience with street tacos was actually very fun. See, my family had did a once-in-a-lifetime cruise to the Mexican Riviera a few years ago. We were visiting Cabo San Lucas on the tip of the Baja peninsula, and my favorite place we visited onshore was a place called "Cabo Dolphins." It's an aquarium where tourists get to swim with actual dolphins, and it was soooo much fun.
We had just finished swimming with our designated dolphin in the saltwater pool up above, we'd all dried off and had changed for walking back to the ship, though my parents decided to hang around a bit before leaving (plus they had to work out the payment package deal on the digital photos, and videos made of our experience). So I'm resting at a picnic table down in the courtyard of the building, and I didn't notice due to being distracted by talking to someone, but dad apparently had decided to get us street tacos from a stand that was selling them right there in the dolphin center. Poor dad got stung by a bee while he was trying to pay for them, so he didn't have nearly as much fun as the rest of us did, but we all enjoyed the tacos he got.
I have, however, heard mixed reviews of street tacos. The quality depends entirely on country you're in, the skill of the cook who is selling them, and the equipment and resources the cook is using as well. Most of the time the tacos, I have heard taste great, but once in a long while, you'll get a crappy one.
Luckily I hate social media [that was made from 2005 onward], so you won't catch me at either X or Bluescum. Not a fan of Fakebook, Instagroan, or TrickTok either. I stay away from Parlor, Gab, and Truth Social because you <i>know</i> the FBI has a watchlist for "dangerous" right-wingers who are members.
An empty vessel usually makes the loudest noise.
