You're white knighting in a thread about mansplaining. All you did is prove that LauraGrace was lying. She does want a man to tell her what to think.
Metrosexual was a popular term right before the same sex marriage electioneering, around when every show on prime time TV was starting to acclimatize us to homosexuality like Queer Eye For The Straight Guy. Then it went away. If you look at some of these dating websites, they're full of women who claim to be something called "sapiosexual". Ever heard of that? I hadn't. It looks like some kind of sick cult.
You don't explain DNA markers to "someone like that". He already understands them far better than you ever will. He's heard both sides. It's you who has only heard one.
Heart disease is the number one cause of death, but it wasn't always that way. In fact it was rare right up through the middle of last century. It was rare until our diets started changing. Not our DNA. That didn't change. But it hasn't stopped scientists from pushing pills. Statins are the number one class of drugs, ahead of even both antidepressants and painkillers, and they fundamentally don't work.

[quote]Satan is still working through the woman to destroy the family. Satan is still deceiving women about food and diet just as he did with Eve in the Garden of Eden. The wife has a lead role in the preparation of the meals for the family and in making major decisions about diet. Satan continues to lie to the woman with false information about food, diet, and health.[/quote]
Generalizations are the foundation of science. What you hate is biology.
Thanks for the rec.
What's that line about some rich man marrying her and taking her shopping?
It was like 90% from when he was born until the mid 1980s. Wasn't this guy adopted or abandoned or something? Foster children are medicalized worse than lab rats.
These movies have the best acting.
Saw Kids and sought this out, as well as the others like Bully. Had a friend who liked Kids because he had the same speech impediment as the protagonist.
Why did Transformers cost $400 million dollars to make? I don't see $400 million dollars on screen. I see maybe $400 thousand. Obviously that must have been a very troubled production. Because the director is incompetent. Or producer Steven Spielberg is laundering money. Yet they say Michael Bay gets movies in on time and under budget. That's the thing. Who set those ammounts? It's like the difference between the national debt and the deficit. I understand what you're getting at, I'm just not sure that it's a real thing that actually exists. It's more like Hollywood lore. Take a classic example like Casablanca. It's romantic to think that it went way over schedule and budget and had tons of rewrites and it's a miracle it ever got made at all. But it's just not true in any meaningful way. These guys were given basically unlimited resources and when they needed more they just had to ask, nicely, oy vey! It would make more sense to describe a movie like Dune as a troubled production, but even that would only be from the perspective of the director over artistic differences. How about Blade Runner where Ridley Scott is still trying to milk ever dollar out of his own fans with a million different versions. Something deeply wrong with that production, decades in the making. Bunch of rich brats. El Mariachi. Now there's a troubled production. It was on a shoestring budget and took a lot of resourcefulness. Everything had to go right and it did.
Then how come Roger Moore goes to visit the grave of George Lazenby's wife?
On some of the James Bond forums, there are a lot of nutjob fanboys who will bite your head off for even asking about this codename theory, because they can autistically point out all sorts of continuity errors like this.
I think it's better to view James Bond as a mythological creature like Pluto or Cerberus or something. His story can be retold any number of ways, "retcons". What I don't like is this cheap marketing stunt of calling Casino Royale a reboot, when Judy Dench is sill M, it takes place in modern day, and it even has the same writers as the previous movie. It's just a sequel. A reboot denotes a change in style, not story or actor. Batman and Robin wasn't a reboot of Batman Forever.
I don't think it's fair to describe a big budget movie as "difficult". That's like saying Steven Spielberg is rich because he works hard. Yeah, so does everyone else.
I'm glad a garbage movie staring a character I've never heard of managed to trounce a beloved cultural icon's entire repertoire. I don't know if it's inflation or globalism or marketing or what, but anything that forcibly confronts people with absurdity has got to be good. Wake people up from the slow boil. Go ahead and make a law that says all characters must be female. Do it right now.
I wish they would fire the writers from Die Another Day already. The new ones are trying way too hard. A lot of the old ones didn't try at all.
Jussie Smullette is Jewish, and there are an awfully lot of Jews in Trump's cabinet for being only 2% of the population. Are you saying there's a "Jewish privlidge", or are you saying Jews just work harder than blacks?
Drop the clown world act.
Comic book style traits are showing up everywhere. Emotionless plot heavy ciphers.
Started around the time of Batman Begins.
Every movie in the 1990s had a black president.
Meet John Doe
It's another one from Frank Capra similar to A Face in the Crowd, but less pro-war, less Jewish, and more populist. A Face in the Crowd has a lot going for it, but it's too partisan with too many cheap shots like the "isolationist" comment. Meet John Doe reveals the same truth as being universal rather than one sided.
Didn't Bob Roberts want to impose a theocracy and kill homosexuals?
Painting conservatives that way is like Jussie Smullette level blood libel, some very low level fearmongering propaganda from a very insular communitiy of extremely wealthy people in the Hollywood tribe. The trope is that we will be led away from our higher minded morality by a pied piper who appeals to our base instincts. The reallity is that we are led far more astray toward the artificial and away from the natural by the conscious efforts of a collective media. America is less like a Normal Rockwell painting than ever, yet the kvetching gets louder.
Trump isn't even ideological. He just looks extreme to you because he has mildly opposed the orthodoxy of open borders and perpetual wars.
