Newman O’s taste better than Oreos, they’re cheaper, and organic.

Oreos were the rip off of Hydrox.

Anybody remember those Popeye’s cereals? I thought they were better than some of the more expensive cereals…

Walmart brand knockoffs of Tagalongs are great

In the early 80s, there was a good Pac-Man ripoff called Super Taxman 2 for the Apple ][… And a Frogger one called Ribbit that was fun.

There were a lot of ripoff games for Apple and Commodore back then. Some quite good like the above, and some not-so-good. But you didn’t have to keep pumping quarters into the computer so it was a win either way.

I found "On Golden Blonde" much more entertaining than "On Golden Pond."

See they have the golden arches. We have the golden arch. 
 

And can we talk about that the sister was far hotter. I mean, the girl gave hand jobs at basketball games for God sakes.

Isn’t she a better ripoff of Tori Amos? It’s all coming full circle…

Although Morissette’s 1st album in 91 was released a year before the 1st album of Amos and both released albums in 92. Doesn’t seem like it should be that way

Friends became a lot more popular than the show that inspired it: Living Single

God damn peenie. It’s a non political thread and you come in here with garbage. No it’s a thread about hunter biden getting 10% for the big guy and being paid 85k a month by the Ukraines that his daddy gave billions to in war

Doesn't matter. It's called culture. Acceptance and support of that culture comes from 13%. Maybe 11% at best. 

Then there are the liberals who promote it by saying how they "understand" it and allow it to continue. Sick.  

[supermike80]

Godfather II was better than the original

[Hardcore troubadour]

Shonuff and Tim Hauck both suck

The remake of Thomas Crown Affair better than the OG.

So only the first person to do something deserves criticism?

Yep and I’m not going to turn the entire thread into something else. It was to make a point and move on. But here you are doing what you do best. Dragging on useless comments again and again begging for responses. I like this topic. It was fun til peenie went political. I read it and hit reply to make a point hoping it would end at that 

as far as Seafoam as well his comment was only made in response to peenies idiocracy

You know I don’t give a damn about that fake ass statistic…

https://www.instagram.com/reel/DXpmz5MEnlV/?igsh=bHR6Nmt6bGs4OHdx

The figure misrepresents FBI arrest data, often ignoring that >99% of Black Americans are not criminals. 
 

Data represents arrests, not convictions or total crimes committed. Over-policing and concentrated poverty in Black communities contribute significantly to higher arrest rates, rather than an inherent, higher propensity for crime.

Analysts define this statistic as racist propaganda, often ignoring that roughly 59% of all violent crime arrests involve White Americans.

I know you don't care. But that is not fake. 

And you got your wish. A lot of liberal run communities got rid of a lot of police. How did that work out for you? 

Not very well. 

And "Analysts say it's racist." 

The truth can never be racist. People who use the word 'racist' every day in their lives, are just angry, bitter, irresponsible, unsuccessful people.

Crime is at historically low levels. I’d direct you to Fordham law professor John Pfaff for a detailed breakdown of the fallacies that lead to over-policing and mass incarceration.

Yeah THAT guy. 

That's a load BS. Tell this all to Mexico. 

Well, I guess I'n mexico a lot more people just go missing. So maybe less incarceration.

His writing and extensive use of data to prove hypotheses is probably unappealing to lazy readers.

Sure thing. You go pick and choose what person at what school agrees with you and writes about it and all of a sudden you live in academia world. Not real world. 

But you do you.

We need to lower the so called standards for the death penalty. Attempted murderers shouldn't be spending 10 years in jail. They should get the death penalty. Same for rapists, murderers, and repeat felons in general.

I don't even know why I am bothering to respond with a thoughtful post, as you're likely to make some childish remark about me being an old man, while simultaneously being significantly older than me... but....

 

I completely agree with the first part. There are a lot of people on this board who love to pick and choose a specific person whose comments or overall take on a topic aligns with theirs and then use it to claim the entire industry agrees with them. 

 

As for the death penalty, i've been against it since research papers I did in college. Unless, of course, someone has confessed. Otherwise the idea that anyone on death row could have been wrongfully accused and wrongfully found guilty is scary. Bad enough they have to spend a large portion of their life wrongfully imprisoned.

Agreed; for some people, whatever disagrees with their preconceived notions, they dismiss it. But I think a lot of people here will at least explore other possibilities.
