Yes, my understanding was that she was 13 or so in the series, at the beginning. But HBO understandably was leery due to the early storypath of sticking a 13-year-old in a sex scenario... plus maybe casting as well. It's not really ever been explained why Merchant was recast, except that it was...

Well, that's true about the puddle. Santa looks like enough of a twisted bastard to hook up with a snowman and then turning a hairdryer on her mid-embrace, watching her melt into his arms. And then to add insult to indignity, he ate the carrot afterwards.

I think the reindeer has the hots for Santa despite playing hard to get. Who else could make his nose glow so red in excitement? As far as the puddle:

Agreed. He's not an N. He has trouble with abstractions and becomes almost incoherent. Not a J either. He's as freewheeling and open-ended as they came. If you've ever worked with an ESTJ, practical/rational consistency and responsibility are big deals. Trump is a deal-maker and changes to...

Basically it has some jump scares, but the characterization / human drama / character behavior is pretty dumb, which for me is a dealbreaker. I like the pictures in the credits as well. I didn't say Conjuring 2 was a bad movie... just that if you've seen the first, there's not a ton of...

hehehe

The Conjuring (1) was better in my opinion. The second one was just more of the same + some over the top demon stuff. the main reason I find it interesting is that I already knew of the Warrens long before this. I spent some years online trying to find and collect books about demonology. I had...

I chalked it up as "suffering for the art." I rented "Don't Breathe" tonight on DVD for $1.50. It's gotta be better.

I ended up watching it again last Friday. Yeah, I'm still harshing on it. It's not much more than a cobbled pastiche of better scifi/horror flicks. I can see all the influences. The character arcs aren't really handled well. Considering it only clocks in at 1:25 or 1:30, it seems like a...

I had a much broader view of it -- it's mortality, although the ability to pass it off to a sexual contact catches the flavor of STDs. You can't escape it, you don't know when it will find you, and when it catches up, you die and that's it. Sex is typically a rite of passage into adulthood (and...

It was more that it simply had some disturbing elements, and forced transformation is a haunting concept. Although I think Michael Parks elevated the movie a bit from what was originally a Kevin Smith joke in an interview / commentary track (?) Yeah. Sadly, the first 45 minutes was interesting...

Oh, you mean It Follows -- haha, that is very different than "The Following". (That TV show was a guilty pleasure of mine -- lots of scenery chewing and generally illogical craziness, but boy was it fun.)

Haven't seen Lights Out yet, but yes -- SInister is one I was wondering about for you. The 8mm films were the highlight there, although there were a few jump scares as well. And Babadook. I think "It Follows" was overhyped, but the relentless nature of what's following them is actually pretty...

I saw that a few months back -- although I couldn't tell you "which" version I saw as apparently there were zillions of different cuts of the film that got released and passed around due to the notoriety of the film and various theaters and studios cutting scenes out. I'm thinking it wasn't the...

Well, there are some I can't get out of my head: - Human Centipede 1&2 - Martyrs (2008) - A Serbian Film - Irreversible - Antichrist - Under the Skin - Tusk - Wolf Creek Some of those have artistic merit, which leaves me in an excruciating middle-ground... the ones that are just exploitative...

I used 23andme last winter. I think maybe the ancestry related test might offer more. But yeah, it was really interesting just to finally nail down where both sides of my family likely originated from. (Turns out, I am 99.9% european... and 0.1% Asian. Hmmm.) And haplogroups -- there are some...

Some Fi's are pretty militant. Why do you think INFPglobal and other sites didn't last? Unconstructive conflict. SoS, different site. ... point being, we're still trafficking in cliches here to some degree. Some Fi folks are really aggressive and some are really non-confrontational. It might be...

Yeah, I did this test a long time ago, and that's what I ended up as. With "Power" as my least favored attribute. typical range of flex probably based on Ne vs Ti strength of preference. Of course! Mr. Gopher is All Things to All People! :ahh04:

Adios, be well. Sorry this place grew too frustrating; I get it. Hope everything goes well for you wherever you end up.

I'm sure that PNB and Rook and Cog are all part of this conspiracy to withhold crucial information from the forum membership. This is the kind of irresponsible misbehavior that Mr. Gopher will remedy once he wins the current election.

We had this issue in terms of promotion in my agency as well, where there were only two grade tracks upwards and there was pressure to become project managers and team leaders if you wanted a higher-grade position. Recently it was floated that they are seeking to expand the roles so that...

Wonderful, quoting some main symptoms of heart disease there.... Of course there are other things that could trigger it as well. If it continues, sounds like something to check out. My mom has atrial fib, and I wonder if I've picked it up too. (My grandmother had it as well.) I haven't...

Yeah, there it is. You know more of the specifics than I did (on actually how to do), but it's not hard if you have experience with it. Most people don't know, which is surprising; I've only run across 1-2 that really know wth they're doing and care enough to do it (lots of dupe jobs seem to be...

Yeah, that's basically how INTPc was run... little modding whatsoever. It died. (well, actually, the few remaining users moved to INTPComplex. I think that's still around. But I've seen them ban members from time to time.) Maybe we're screwed either way.

if you had a smidgen of creativity, his name would have be sllllooowwwpooooke

Yeah, that would be post #3 this guy has written to advertise/link his blog. I guess something positive: uh, on-the-nose business acumen? (I can't quite say it's good, as it's way too transparent.)

Someone help me wagon Slowpoke here, he needs a good lynching.

1 dupe already down yesterday, 428 to go!

Lolz. Yeah, that would get old for everyone. A war of attrition, so to speak. :phear: [429 accounts later...]

In comparison to the Ancient Ones Who Gibber As They Come For Humanity, your soul is little more than chewed-to-flavorlessness Bazooka Joe bubble gum (without the comic) stuck to hot burbly macadam.

Sure. There are ways around everything. You can TOR in / use proxies as well, it's common knowledge. It would just be hard to maintain a coherent identity via username, if you keep getting banned every 20-30 posts since if you keep posting the same and/or revealing your identity, you end up...

... you should see my TypC count. :o But hey, it comes out to about 3.2 posts a day here.

Ehh, my impression was sometimes he backed things up legitimately and other times he was just being contentious. But I know I am less frequent, so I'm not as useful. (It probably also comes down to what individual members use the forum for. At this point in my life, I'm forced to burn a lot of...

Well, since you're actually taking my comment seriously (I'm kind of playing middle of the field)... ...the questions as I see them are not whether contentious people generate more interaction (because I think they certainly do -- tossing small bombs into the middle of a conversation is a great...

That's stupid, what if you're wrong?? Let's experiment! ... wait. Does this post make me needlessly contentious? :confused:

I had him blocked for two years probably, although I would still read his stuff when I was in the mood if I saw a Quote that looked worthwhile. It was mostly because the majority of the time we interacted, it was needlessly contentious, so I didn't see the point in subjecting either of us to...

I've just been running it on my blog entries here. Four entries, and so far, four different responses: ENTJ, ISFP, INFP, and INTP. I think part of it is keying off topical matter, which is kind of lame tbh... but I'm not sure how a piece of software would properly look at context anyway...

... and that's where we have to go: Where the path of the Fun ends. Hey, we're all here to do what we're all here to do. Every time you've heard someone say they thought so and so was a crossdresser or a lover -- that's the forum assimilating someone that's doing something they're not...

If Architect starts quoting the Matrix too much, I'm doing an extra hit on the yagé.

I downloaded a lot of crazy disturbing crap last night, including the the original "The Last House on the Left" (1975?) but that's probably the least of it. When I'm feeling particularly masochistic, I'll start digging in. I guess I will be the go-to girl on movies you don't want to tell anyone...

You know, you'd be much more funny if you didn't keep stopping to remind everyone that you're actually just trying to be funny and nothing is meant personally. Own it, man. Just own that shit. EDIT: more explanation later from youuuu blahblahblah :ahh04:

/vote Rook Only a scum would drag Barney into this.

yeah, cuz we all know what happens then.

you're missing the point.* *where the point is that he needs to advertise his blog

#allBrontosMatter

Donkeyp0rn cloaked in Armani and Coco Chanel is still barnyard banality. :D ... cuz you know whatever the setup is, it'll be off the beaten path; these shadowy forum conspiracies are never pure vanilla, they always go for shock value.

It would be nice, but no one's been able to break him of the habit yet, so don't get your hopes up. Kind of a resident curmudgeon, he's been bumped off a number of times in the past for shorter duration; gotten into some brutal fights with folks. I think sometimes he's contributed meaningfully...

It's more of a philosophical movie, with allusions to Sartre's "No Exit" -- and it doesn't really answer questions. I think Donnie Darko (same director) felt a little more fulfilling.

What other time of day is worth watching videos about satanism and demons? I typically find myself sitting in bed in the dark on my laptop watching Mr. Nightmare YouTube vids, and then linking to the craziest shit. You can link up to a lot of other crazy stuff that will make you scared to run...

Kubo and the Two strings (2016). I'm a fan of Laika's films -- they usually try to have some depth to their animated movies, and appeal to a more mature kid and/or adult audience. Kubo isn't much different and in fact might be the best movie they have put out. It's very much a "hero's quest"...
