  1. The same could be said of teenagers and young adults here. Hell, the same could be said for some adults here, too. I actually work with someone who not only didn't know who Dan Quayle was, but when asked, couldn't tell you who the current VP is. So fret not, we have our own teeming, ignorant masses to worry about as well.
  2. RIP Mr. Lane. Heaven will always be one of my favorite 80s guilty pleasures.
  3. Twitter also has a 140 character limit, so there's not a lot of deep and insightful conversation that can happen in such a short amount of space. You can find inane comments from people anywhere, it's not just restricted to social media sites. I get that Twitter isn't for everyone, and that's cool.....but it's not nearly as bad as you're making it out to be.
  4. You won't be disappointed if you go to Chicago. Plenty to do there entertainment-wise, lots of cultural things to check out, plus all the great food.
  5. Joss Stone. I just picked up her new album LP1 today. I love, love, love her voice. I'm curious to hear how SuperHeavy is going to sound - I haven't had a chance to hear the first single yet.
  6. Joss Stone & LeAnn Rimes - Super Duper Love (Are You Digging On Me?) Pt. 1
  7. The same purpose 99% of the websites on the Internet serve - to entertain people. I happen to like Twitter, and I occasionally get comments back from celebrities I follow, which is fun. If you don't like Twitter, don't use it. There's things I don't like, but that doesn't mean I think they shouldn't exist.
  8. Tour with Led Zeppelin or do anything with the surviving original members again.
  9. What the hell do the Olympics have to do with this? NOTHING, that's what. Buildings are burning, people are dying, and that has nothing to do with a bunch of people running around collecting medals.
  10. I don't see how this would be an issue for the Olympic Committee anyway. What are they going to do? Deem London unsuitable and cancel the games if they can't find someplace else that can get themselves ready in less than a year? They didn't cancel the games after what happened in Munich in 1972, or after the bombing in Atlanta in 1996, so nothing is going to happen to an event that's a year away. Unless you think London will be reduced to smoldering rubble and totally uninhabitable by then.
  11. Oh, he knows. The sad part is, Del Brad didn't watch the video he was talking about, or else he would have known the person was making fun of Sarah Palin, who is a nut job fundie. This person, in their portrayal of Sarah Palin, made the comment....and I thought it was funny. I don't even believe there was person called Jesus, so how could I personally make any assertions as to what his racial makeup was?
  12. Bat signal aside, if she painted Starry Night that well, that is extremely impressive.
  13. Vinyl I get online, since very few brick and mortar stores anymore carry it, whether vintage or new issue. CDs I buy online as well, as it's usually cheaper. I don't buy movies anymore, since there's so few released that I have any interest in seeing, whether in the theaters or at home. If something really catches my eye, or there's a movie I do want to see that I missed in theaters, I just get it online. I seldom buy anything in stores anymore aside from clothes, food, and shoes. All entertainment things, like music, movies, computer accessories, and assorted knick-knacks, I just get online.
  14. I don't pay for bootlegs. They didn't have permission to record the show, so why should they get paid for it? I understand there's labor/materials involved if they're making CDs and artwork to go along with them, but it would be no different than me ripping a copy of someone's CD, making my own artwork for it, and then selling it.
  15. I did a paper both in high school and in college on the Trail of Tears.
  16. .....and Jim Crow, internment camps......
  17. If you don't think they're man-made, that doesn't leave a whole lot of other options.
  18. Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet. I will watch anything the two of them are in, even if it's a 30-second commercial for Tampax.
  19. Favorite line: "This particular brand of flour is great, because it's white like Jesus!" Favorite line: "It's like the underground railroad.....OF SEX!" I should add that these videos are NSFW, as funny as they are.
  20. So you believe aliens in flying saucers made them?
  21. I think they're the products of bored, drunken teenagers OR grown adults looking to scare the shit out of people. Either way, IMO they're man-made, not the doings of little green men in flying saucers.
  22. What's wrong with North Carolina? Sure it's hotter than Satan's taint here during the summer (at least this year), but it also has great barbecue and a beautiful coastline. I wouldn't say it's better than my hometown, but it's not hell either. I'm not Southern anyway, so I'm not sure what that was all about.
  23. I'm glad you liked it! She has a ton of other funny videos; one of my Twitter followers got me hooked.
  24. You really should subscribe to her videos. She's hysterical.
