I can't install anything at work.I can't when I'm at work and that's mostly when I'm on a computer.No one is ever active when I log on except for that one time with you, Snupes.We get active fairly often, but it's usually in bursts. It works quite well if you just have an IRC client running in the background and doing other shit.
You can, you're just afraid.

I can't believe I forgot to mention how the sex scene was turned into a rape scene. That was really, really bad.I saw some headline about this, I think I'll go hunt for an article. I haven't watched the new episodes yet cause I like to wait for them all and then marathon. But yeah, rape never turns into sex. Maybe rough sex can seem like rape and still be consensual, but I haven't seen it yet.
While power is definitely a turn-on for most characters in "GoT," it's a hard fight to win insisting that anything resembling rape can be excused as a turn-on.Apparently this writer has never heard of rape fantasies.
Nooo, it's just a joke at this point!Obama and Clinton say otherwise.Clinton is universally hated for his deviant sexual activities
Is this only for music? I recently bought a copy of Pokemon Y to play with my son.This thread is just for music. There is a video game version here: http://forum.tfes.org/index.php?topic=667.0
But I found that some of the concepts conflicted with my beliefs. Luckily...
I found this really nifty way to play the game so that its more Christian.
Can we all please just shut the fuck up about the animals already?Why, Eric Bana? Why did you ever agree to do such a shit fest?
Anyway, I have watched The Incredible Hulk. It was okay, I guess. It was certainly an improvement over that horrific one Ang Lee gave us back in 2003, the one that had this priceless scene in it:
It's not necessarily cruel to keep an animal in captivity or teach it to do tricks.Dogs are not a good example, really. Some animals do better in captivity while others do not. For example, apparently great white sharks are terrible in captivity. Animals that have been domesticated are very different to forcing tigers, lions, elephants, orcas, and dolphins to do tricks.
Dogs are a good example. If I released a pet dog into the wild it would be cruel.
Same goes with any animal that has only known captivity all it's life.
I didn't explain it very well since I was paraphrasing from that article I read a couple weeks ago. You should read it if you've seen the movie, it was pretty interesting.But the article made a great point of how the movie portrays the orcas as fun-loving peaceful animals when in the wild, (which is a nice fantasy). But they also mentioned how the movie was hypocritical in glorifying orcas in the wild when it suits them but also showing them as vicious predators when it suited them.
But I think they explain the reasoning for this. Orcas are pretty intelligent, social animals that roam across thousands of miles. Stick them in a tiny tank and make them splash fat 5-year-olds every day and they might get pissed off. It's not hypocritical to say that different causes give different effects.
I didn't mean research the movie, I meant researching claims against Sea World. I don't need to watch a doc for that.I'm not saying it's all fabricated lies, I rather just research it myself than watch a movie length PETA ad.
You mean, you'd rather have someone else research it than research it yourself.
Researching the documentary yourself would require you actually watching it.
troll hunterI couldn't pick up on much of the folklore, but I loved it.
Deliciously tongue-in-cheek mockumentary in the style of Blair witch.. I got a few of the references but I'm sure there were more subtle nods to nordic folklore than I know - even with Humon Comic's tutoring.
I just said I wasn't saying that. My only point is that it's not the full truth; that my only qualm with it is that it makes pretty bold statements and portrays everything in a way that gets people emotionally involved in something that's not necessarily true. It's why I dislike documentaries that try and rally people behind a cause.There are a lot of articles that say exactly the same things. Why would I want to watch people being attacked by orcas?That's not dismissing what I said, the context of those 2 aspects is important. I can't pick it apart more than that, but let me just link you to the article.But the article made a great point of how the movie portrays the orcas as fun-loving peaceful animals when in the wild, (which is a nice fantasy).

Thats not really true. The doc points out that attacks in the wild on humans by orcas is almost entirely unheard of and that orcas are extremely social animals that likely have as strong if not stronger emotional lives than humans do. They also show orcas mercilessly hunting seals, so any construing of the films portrayal of orcas as merely fun-loving animals is not really accurate.

So you're basing your opinion on a backwoods internet article? Shouldn't you just watch the documentary yourself?

Well you seem to have made up your mind that that is what it is, but if I may, its not. Its greyer than people make it out to be.
