CCOKC - Child Celebrities Opposing Kirk Cameron
Somebody woke up on the asshole side of the bed....
>> ^my15minutes:
so, i ask what the US still profitably exports, other than the entertainment industry.
and your answer is... porn?
porn is part of the entertainment industry.
and don't worry, i wasn't planning on asking you how you knew that porn makes roughly as much money in the US as all other movies & spectator sports combined.
because you don't know that.
because there's no fucking way that's true.
and please don't bother replying to the contrary unless you can cite a reliable 3rd party source.
>> ^Opus_Moderandi:
Porn. In the United States alone, the porn industry is almost as profitable as spectator sports and movies combined. Don't ask me how I know that....>> ^my15minutes:
and what else does america still profitably export?
The Only Man In The World Who Can Swim With A Polar Bear
Shouldn't he be called "Polar Man"? Not "Grizzly Man"... ? Cause it's a polar bear? Not a grizzly bear?

Alive Inside - The effect of music on an old mind
Recently read Musicophilia by Oliver Sachs, an interesting book, if you're curious about this kind of thing, I recommend it. All the books of his I've read are pretty much the same, just different case histories of his many patients but, the cases are fascinating.

100 greatest horror movie quotes
I've seen every single one of these films. That doesn't happen to me very often with movie compilations these days. (I was gonna bitch about using the same films over and over again but, between Evil Dead and Evil Dead II, there has to be at least 75 great lines).

Kid Falls Asleep While Skiing
Which causes abnormal sleep patterns resulting in a lack of restful sleep which in turn results in falling asleep during the day at any given moment.
I live with someone that has sleep apnea. My brother has sleep apnea. Trust me, I know what sleep apnea is.>> ^nomino:
I don't think you know what sleep apnea is. Let me educate you:
Sleep apnea is a sleep disorder characterized by abnormal pauses in breathing or instances of abnormally low breathing, during sleep. >> ^Opus_Moderandi:

Perpetual Ocean - Stunning time lapse of ocean currents
I'm not "dismissing" it, I'm just calling it what it is. If someone tries to sell you a pile of dogshit by calling it cotton candy most likely you won't buy it. Because you know it's just a pile of dogshit, not cotton candy.Different representations of reality are called different names for a reason. Because they are different. Animation is animation, not time lapse. That's all I'm saying.>> ^poolcleaner:
>> ^Opus_Moderandi:
Seems legit.
When I hear the term "time lapse", I think of something recorded in real time that is sped up because, in reality, the actual event is very slow. Not something generated by a computer. An animation of anything is just that, an animation. imo....>> ^Sagemind:
Now, that would depend if this animation was an approximation or based on stats taken from actual sensors placed in the water to record water flow speeds. So... An animation of a time lapse maybe...?
>> ^Opus_Moderandi:
Isn't this actually animation? Not "time lapse"?
Well, if you think about it, it's all just representations of reality, whether it's an CGI animation made up of calculated data or the actual snap shots played continuously as an animated sequence of stills. (Also, consider other "videos" or images of phenomena in outerspace: black holes or so-called dark matter. We have to recreate images and video based upon various different observations. So I think while, yes, it is animation, you're losing out on the grandeur of the video by dismissing it as "animation".
