    Horror films superthread

    Best horror movies you saw this year? When Evil Lurks, Talk to Me, Godzilla Minus One and No One Will Save You were all great. Evil Dead Rise was the biggest letdown.

    *** NBA Thread 2023-24 ***

    Durant reportedly frustrated with the Suns ‘underwhelming supporting cast’. Always the same with this guy. It’s hard to believe a team was dumb enough to pair him with Kyrie and Harden.

    Flying first class

    Who was the Geek who said it was an “act of violence” to recline your seat in an airplane?

    I’m off all week and have been loving all the dark roast coffee, new books and LL Bean slippers.

    Failure of the public education system

    This is a great idea. Most corporate jobs can be taught without any formal secondary education. And businesses that hire HS grads without a college degree will probably have a more loyal workforce. They’re also drawing talent from the 60% of adults who don’t have a college degree.

    Flying first class

    Only time I ever flew first class was getting randomly bumped up on a flight from Newark to Switzerland many years ago. Wouldn’t care if it was a short domestic flight but that was awesome. I’d never pay for it.
  8. I think adults should take personal responsibility versus blaming other people for their own actions but what do I know? I’m a political independent.
  9. Board righties act like sanctimonious ass holes. Liberals are to blame. Lol
  10. Yeah. Read the Israel Hamas thread. Lot of Geeks have beclowned themselves. A few in this thread too.

    Failure of the public education system

    Elite private colleges should ask the buttfock rent-a-cop on staff for pointers.
  12. GC righties are fond of this game.
  13. Happened upon this story a few days ago - actress dropped from the Scream franchise for pro Palestinian comments. Link Interesting how the production company says her criticism of the Israeli government and calls for a cease fire are “antisemitism.” Classic cancel culture but the MSM and both major parties are fully on board, along with most Geeks parroting that line.

    Blacks Fleeing The Democratic Party

    I’ve seen Democrats ask why working and lower class whites would vote for a billionaire fraudster who lives in a country club but I totally get it. These people in flyover country get absolutely nothing from Wall Street or Washington regardless of who is in office. But one party (Dems) portray them as a bunch of toothless redneck yokels. Why wouldn’t they vote for Reps? I imagine many blacks feel the exact same way but in reverse.
  15. Still, perhaps nothing has raised more questions about the President-elect’s mental acuity and fitness to lead than the widely-reported (and ridiculed) matter of whom he turns to for advice: Conan, Murray, Milton, Robert, and Lucas. They were the first people he thanked when he finished first in the country’s presidential primaries in August—except they’re not really people. “Who else?” he said. “My four-legged children,” referring to his five dogs whom he has called “the best strategists.” Advertisement Scroll to continue with content It all started when Milei adopted an English mastiff named Conan, a reference to the 1982 film Conan the Barbarian, in 2004. González, the Argentinian journalist and unofficial Milei biographer, wrote in the Buenos Aires Timesthat the pet became, in Milei’s words, his “true and greatest love” and that Milei came to see Conan as “literally his son.” Milei, who is never-married and childless, has credited the 200-pound dog with being his closest friend and confidante and sticking by his side through difficult and lonely times. Read More: Why Dogs and Humans Love Each Other More Than Anyone Else When Conan died in 2017, Milei reportedly visited a medium to communicate with his late beloved pet. It was in that telepathic conversation, Milei has said, that Conan relayed God’s mission for him to become President of Argentina. According to Argentina’s La Nacion newspaper, Milei believes that he and Conan first met in a previous life more than 2,000 years ago as a gladiator and lion in the Roman Colosseum and that the pair did not fight because they were destined to join forces in the future (which he believes was a prophecy of his animal-influenced presidential campaign). In 2018, Milei went on to pay about $50,000, according to Reuters and the New York Times, to U.S. company PerPETuate to clone Conan using his DNA, something Milei had reportedly been planning to do for some time. The procedure resulted in five puppies, whom Milei named after the original Conan and the economists Murray Rothbard, Milton Friedman, and Robert Lucas. Milei regularly refers to the current clone Conan as his son—and doesn’t distinguish him from the original Conan—and the other four dogs as his “grandchildren.” González and other Argentine news outlets have reported that Milei seeks counsel from his dogs on matters of his campaign, policy, and more. In an August interview with Spanish newspaper 20minutos, González said that Milei “is convinced that the dogs advise him in different areas: one in politics, another in economics, another gives him general advice.” González added that he is worried about such an “unstable leader” in an already “unstable” Argentina: “This man who would command the fate of the country wakes up each day, does medium sessions with the dogs, and then makes a decree based on that. It’s very shocking.” When asked by The Economist in September about the reports of his unconventional canine cabinet, Milei didn’t deny it, responding with seeming pride: “What is it they say, that my dogs determine my strategies, yes? That they are like a strategic committee? They are the best strategic committee in the world. Tell me: when has an outsider-outsider achieved what we achieved in two years? If so, they are the best political analysts in the world.” Link

    wtf - trans-gender obsessed

    For all I know I pass trans people all the time without realizing it, so I am not claiming any particular trans ID skills. This particular trans was clearly a dude in transition and looked exactly like a guy with tiits dressed like a woman. It’s possible I was wrong. Unlike LC, when I encounter a tranny I don’t check for the twig and berries.

    wtf - trans-gender obsessed

    Saw a tranny on the train last week. It was just standing there, presumably commuting to work. Thought some of you guys might like to know.

    What is Toxic Masculinity?

    Toxic masculinity is when men mistake being an ass hole with being masculine. You see this a lot at the GC.

    Have we talked about the Epstein Island list?

    Nobody ever denied that Epstein and Maxwell ran a pedo ring that catered to rich and famous people.

    NFL screwing up ?

    It’s annoying but I can definitely live without watching Bills - Chargers. As long as I get in market games I’m good. In 20 years there will be NFL football on every day of the week on PPV and streaming services. Old guys like me will complain but the league is printing $.
