  1. Four sips if Wanda Sykes' character asks Dre if he's going to get a Caucasian woman on the side now.
  2. Hmm..maybe they're written up there?
  3. Well, I've learned about Godwin's Law, thank you. Honestly didn't know it existed. :). Does removing my Hitler reference make my POV any more valid?
  4. Whatever Winn did, he expected her to be mighty pissed, lol. His reaction was, "she's not just gonna kick my ass, she's gonna kill me."
  5. What constantly amazes me is how often Kara gets knocked down. Seriously, she gets floored at least once in every action scene. That's not supposed to happen, running into a yellow-sun powered Kryptonian should, in theory, be like hitting a brick wall.
  6. With the last two episodes the show-runners are salvaging what was looking to be a lost season. Kara and the whole cape thing? Hey, she shoots lasers out of her eyes, has freeze breath and can throw in the occasional thunder clap. Why, oh why does she need cape tricks? Mon-el I get, he's severely limited. He needs a gimmick. The way Melissa played it, unbuttoning her shirt so slowly, it was almost like a striptease, lol. It seems James was thinking that way too given the way he looked at her. Melissa is still adorable, though.
  7. Amen. My sensitivity to this issue could lie in part because I live in AM's adopted base of operations (Brooklyn, NY). The thought that she could have tried to recruit one of my young nieces or female cousins is frankly chilling. And makes me far less inclined to be understanding or forgiving.
  8. Not trying to argue here, but sometimes the world actually is that simple. Funny or not, Cosby is a serial rapist. And rumor has it Hitler loved animals, too. AM is no less evil IMO.
  9. Here's a first-hand account from one of AM's intended victims. https://pagesix.com/2018/04/21/how-allison-mack-tried-to-lure-me-into-a-sex-cult/?_ga=2.189696875.1964778539.1524083492-1815346948.1524083492 All of the accounts of AM's appearance consistently describe her as gaunt with dark circles under both eyes. Clearly, Rainere's formula of sleep deprivation and an 800-calorie-per-day diet was the key to bending victims to his will.
  10. The NXIVM folks are doubling down, it appears: https://nypost.com/2018/04/21/sex-cult-moves-to-brooklyn-and-is-ready-for-war/ I find it interesting that the odious Clare Bronfman is confident that Keith Raniere will be vindicated, but makes no mention of AM. It probably doesn't matter because both of them are likely to spend at least 25 years as guests of the federal government.
  11. It actually was. https://pagesix.com/2018/04/09/alleged-sex-cult-recruits-hipsters-in-brooklyn/ Incredible - $10,000 to join a cult. What scares me the most about that article is the young people who took that BS seriously and decided to stay for the entire presentation. I remember being 24, 25 years old, searching for answers. Really sad that there are folks out there willing to seriously exploit young people who are just looking for some guidance.
  12. This strikes close to home on a personal level. I read recently that AM had moved to my beloved home town of Brooklyn, NY and was holding frequent recruitment meetings here. The thought of her and KR preying on eager millennials looking for mentoring makes me sick to my stomach. Hope the Judge throws both of them under the jailhouse.
  13. Just read the whole indictment and detainment memo. Can't possibly understand how anyone can view AM's behavior - even if the result of brainwashing - as anything other than evil. As well as hurtful and life-scarring to the victims.
  14. And her whole "hey white woman - are you sleeping with Dre?" to any Caucasian female in the vicinity was so OTT that it seemed like a dream sequence. Seriously, who talks/acts like that in the real world???
  15. Oh I think Sheldon Cooper had that particular bad day about four seasons ago, heh.
  16. We've seen Kara fly through space (albeit briefly) yes? Does that mean she can only hold her breath for extended periods of time, as opposed to going without air indefinitely?
  17. This mini-series was pretty well-acted on the whole! Hopefully it will do well come Emmy time. I haven't read any other the books either; my guess is some people wanted to escape but were probably trapped in the vault or blocked by the flames.
  18. At the end of the day, events like Waco and Guyana remind us all to keep a level head when it comes to Religion. I consider myself "spiritual" as opposed to "religious," and the Jones, Bakers, and Koreshs of the world have a lot to do with that. Gary Roesner said it best when speaking with Koresh "I always find it interesting that whenever God chooses a Messiah, the first thing he tells that man to do is to sleep with a lot of young women." I'm not saying that all Religious leaders are corrupt, but history shows that far too many of them are ready to exploit people who are desperate for answers and willing to be lead by a charismatic figure.
  19. It's a slippery slope. Bad judgement in all parts of life tends to cost us, to one degree or another. Those adults chose to follow David Koresh. Think about the conversation between Steve and Gary during the "kids-for-milk" exchange. If David was truly the horrible, garbage human being Steve described, then why follow him? I'm not saying the Branch Davidians deserved to die, but most major decisions have consequences. The ATF and FBI cannot be absolved for their poor decisions either, IMO.
  20. If Lucky comes back, they can start a PI Firm - "Weepy Eyes Spies."
  21. Appeared so. What happened to Ron Hale?
  22. Agreed. Although Luke and Laura had a much higher success rate with their schemes. Speaking of Lucky, with Nashville ending I wonder if there's any chance of a JJ return? Dante needs a new partner now :( Plus, the son of such an iconic couple needs a better ending. While the loss of a spouse can be tough, hard to imagine that Luke and Laura's son is so emotionally fragile that Siobhan McKenna's death caused him to flee to Africa, never to return. Would be nice to see that character redeemed. He would have brought so much to the recent Faison S/L based on his history.
  23. More talented actors can pull that off, some of the Big Bang Theory cast are really skilled at it (they eat a lot on that show). When done right, it adds more realism than characters pushing food around on their plates without taking an actual bite. RoHo doesn't have those kind of chops, no pun intended. But Rebecca did handle the obviously ad-libbed "tangerine piece shoved in her mouth mid-line" thing very well.
  24. A lot of folks would probably take a pass on the moral dessert and settle for not just getting shit (or shat?) on, I think.
  25. I know what you mean, but hopefully color really doesn't matter in the afterlife. In other news, this show is so GOOD it literally makes me hug myself.
