    When was the LAST TIME you've been to a MALL?

    Last Saturday. My mom wanted us to give my uncle a new suitcase as a birthday present and asked me to go get one. Got him an American Tourister that was on sale. The Samsonites were too freaking expensive.

    Do Non-Americans get weirded out when watching certain American movies

    No, because that movie did take the time to explain earlier that Burt and his wife were kind of nuts.

    Crime Donald Trump Hush Money Fraud Trial

    I’m pretty sure what scares Trump the most is Daniels taking the stand and testifying under oath about his shortcomings in bed.

    Crime Donald Trump Hush Money Fraud Trial

    Of course he is lying. What is he going to to? Try to defend him on the facts of the case? He knows as well as everyone else that Trump is guilty of everything he is being charged with in this trial.

    Social Move over Latinx, make way for LATINE (La-TEEN-eh)

    It's probably only "surging" in popularity in relative terms. As in, they're finally having to admit that absolutely fucking nobody is using "latinx", but at least they're having better luck getting some progres down here in Latin America to use words like "latine" and "todes" and "amiges"...

    Movies James Gunn's SUPERMAN (Logo Revealed, post #596)

    Is seven months that short a time span when one has personal trainers, nutritionists and the gods know how many people working on it? For what is essentially a group effort with a shit-ton of money to back it up, seven months seems positively leisurely.

    Elections The abortion issue in 2024

    I believe I mentioned this recently in another thread, but my opinion on abortion is that it is wrong, but that attempting to ban it invariably results in a remedy that is a whole order of magnitude worse than the disease. And what is going on over there in the USA is doing nothing but proving...

    Elections Trump Indicted On 91 Counts

    May not come to that. The guy is so old and in such terrible shape that the shock and stress of going to prison might be enough to do the job without any active choice on his part. Might work himself up to a heart attack right then and there in court as the verdict is read.

    Movies I Have Never Seen Gone With The Wind And It's Playing In Theaters Tomorrow

    I saw it for the first time when I was 10 years old. There was an article in the newspaper mentioning the movie in the entertainment section and what a great film it was and I asked my parents permission to stay up late and watch it, like a big boy. It was the first time in my life I have...

    Movies JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX (Official Teaser Trailer, post #330)

    So Harley's another inmate in this version, instead of a doctor? Interesting take.

    International Brexit's New Imported Food Tax

    I don't know, the have-my-cake-and-eat-it-too brigade appears to have been a larger portion of the Leave voters than I gave it credit. And they are plenty upset that they're not getting the impossible thing they were promised. For years I've been seeing them starring in news segments that might...

    Television Game of Thrones Prequel KNIGHT OF SEVEN KINGDOMS: THE HEDGE KNIGHT (Casts Dunk and Egg, post #46)

    Dunk and Egg have been cast! ‘Game Of Thrones’ Spinoff ‘A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms’ Casts Peter Claffey & Dexter Sol Ansell In Lead Roles They both look the part. This Claffey guy is apparently a former rugby player and is 196cm tall (that a bit over 6ft 5). Put him in the right boots...

    International Brexit's New Imported Food Tax

    Why should they do such a thing when time and reality has proven them right in everything they said? The people who voted to leave were thick AF imbeciles, who were too stupid to recognized that the Leave campaign was telling them was a load of bullshit, or too racist to care. They kneecapped...

    Elections The state of Florida should be an embarrassment for Democrats

    I suspect that with the exception of rabid evangelicals, most conservatives in the US share the same view of abortion that I have: abortion is wrong, but outright banning it is a case of the remedy being far worse than the disease.

    Social Trump's $60 God Bless the USA Bible

    I don’t remember in what comment section I read it, but someone speculated that this was done as a way for evangelical churches to circumvent the prohibition on them donating to political campaigns. Does that track? That they are not donating, just buying Bibles in bulk?

    Social Which is more likely - You using Heinz ketchup for your food or drinking Coca-Cola?

    Coco Cola, since I'm outside the US. Heinz is not really a thing here. Not many people are going to fork up for imported ketchup.

    Crime Letitia James Under Pressure to Prosecute Jon Stewart for selling his New York home 829% over market value

    Disingenuous of you to omit the fact that Trump filed fraudulent documentation. That's what makes what he did fraud. That is why it is different.

    Elections MTG files motion to oust Mike Johnson as Speaker

    The plan you propose is dead on the water from the Republican side because it presupposes that the Democrats would be able to find enough moderate Republicans willing to implement it. If there was any Republican in the current Congress willing to go along with a plan like this, we wouldn't be...
