Last night I watched Mississippi Burning, starring Gene Hackman, and it was a stark reminder this country was once capable of producing films that were not a complete insult to viewer's intelligence. It's the great paradox of our time -- all of this marvelous technology now at our disposal and yet the pop cultural landscape is nearly completely devoid of anyone with anything meaningful to present. Not only that, but now all of this AI generated image horseshit is polluting the internet. The people producing it are acting like teenage boys who just discovered masterbation. The world doesn't need 300 images of any celebrity leading a team of reindeer, at least not within 12 hours or less. It's all bullshit. I guess Cooper will take any role if the price is right. 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was inappropriate for people to call her names then it was damn sure wrong for her to allow those uneducated fools to get in the face of jews on campus. these people are nuts.

Stryder1978 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Well, my excitement didn't last long. Harvard decided to retain Ms. Gay as a faculty member and she gets to keep her $900,000/year salary! Every person that donates to that school should pull their donations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we have seen over the last few months, so-called higher education is filled with these leftist anti-semite types who have the nerve to call anyone who dares to disagree with them racist, sexist, homophobe, etc. Yep, I say cut them all off - stop donations and look for better schools to attend that don't partake in their socialist ideology indoctrination crap.

Bong-Man Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I really don't understand the concept of buying a frozen pizza from the supermarket. As far as I'm concerned, they all suck. You can pretty much buy any carry-out pizza, freeze any amount you like in foil, and it all tastes better than store-bought frozen without much of a price difference. Except Little Caesars of course. Garbage pizza with dehydrated cheese and cardboard crust. Nothing can save that crap. Prison food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul carruthers Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I made the mistake of eating part of a Little Crapper's pizza once, it's something I'll never do again. Try imagining eating a car tire & that's what it was like... 🥴 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
