Joe Scarborough finally gets it -- Sandy Hook brings it home
I don't have a problem with his statement-Though cliched to a degree the point is obvious and from the looks of your rant you've got personal issues with this user or his simplified statement of what should be obvious to anyone with a larger proportion of neocortex, with disproportionate enlargement of pre-frontal and temporal association cortices than lower apes.
"I love to eat it everyday, and if you ask me why I'll saaaaaaaayyyyyy...!" (fill in the last line with more baloney!)
Oh my! You are a tool. How about these gems while you're at it:
"Only from my cold dead hands"
"Molon Labe"
"I have a headache 'this big' and it has Excedrin written all over it"
...you know, since you're spouting marketing soundbites, might as well get all the classics in there.
How about, "my baloney has a first name, it's O S C A R,"
I'm beginning to suspect that the reason you never offer anything of substance in your comments isn't because you're an ideological conservative who staunchly believes in the right wing talking points...it's because you're an idiot who's easily taken in by simple rhetoric.
Bill Nye: Creationism Is Just Wrong!
It really is depressing. Hundreds of years of careful study, interspersed with moments of genius, each backed with millions of man hours of experiment and analysis have revealed a truth that is almost inspirational. That the earth, and everything on it, is formed at the centre of stars and gradually came together in one of the most elegant and brutally efficient processes to arrive where we are now and that process continues!
And yet, bronze age idiots contort themselves to ridiculous extremes to justify a theory that is not only long since disproved but is actually far more boring and clichéd than the truth.
Why Doesn't MTV Play Music Videos Anymore?
Am I the only one who despises the cutaway shaky camera angle cliche? Or any shot that includes other cameramen in the shot? Or the jittery title text that was beaten to death 10 years ago? It's like shaking a baby rattle in people's faces to keep them from getting fussy, it's literally infantile. Or how about the filler shots that are supposed to show the subject looking so awkward or ernest caught in an unguarded moment, so we believe they are real people. It's just as rehearsed as a used-car sales pitch, which starts to look preferable to all this contrived horseshit.
Okay, I feel better now.
I AM LEGEND ALTERNATE ENDING (Must See This)
I definitely would have preferred this ending... It has so much more to say about the humanity of the situation. Just killing him at the end was just so...zombie horror cliche and pointless.

"Thank You, Cliche Dictation Machine!!
Ron Paul brilliantly shuts down inane question from report
Fuck the News.
Now that yet another patsy is passed-over in deference to a failed political machine on bad drugs, let's kick the Senator from Texas from corner to corner until he retires to Surfside, TX.
Romneys' a GIANT cult-friendly, frilly-thong-wearing, DOUCHE and Obamas' a cliched, cunt charlatan TURD SAMMY...and they work for the same folks taking shit after shit on the planet, and the United States.
There's your choices, get out and rock that vote!!
Doctor Who: P.S. - The Amy And Rory Epilogue
Hated that episode. It was so poorly written and put together. Nothing made sense, too many conveniences
("There's no way to change time!"
"We can do a paradox"
"That's impossible"
"No, it's not, look"
"Oh, they changed time. Well done"),
the Amy and Rory thing at the end was like "Oh, so that just happened. Wait, what exactly happened?" and the Angels, the creatures from one of the scariest, most exciting episode of Dr Who have been turned into nothing more than a cliched, action movie monster
News Anchor Responds to Viewer Email Calling Her "Fat"
I'm typically not one for anecdotal evidence myself, but I don't need to rely on it. There is very little data on successful techniques for long term weight loss. Here's an example. Now, not everyone will interpret these results in the same way that I do. On my reading, people that maintained weight loss needed to check their weight, reduce their fat intake, and expend more energy than people that are naturally weight stable at that weight. In fact, people that lost weight, and regained it had effectively the same habits as people that are weight stable at the lower weight. In other words, weight stable fat people and weight stable thin people exercise and eat the same amounts. Granted, there were some that were able to maintain this increased activity level and highly restrictive diet, however I would suspect if you were to investigate that group you would likely find a higher incidence of psychological issues surrounding body-image, and likely an increased incidence of OCD. Now if your claim is true, the people that lost weight down to an average of 167 pounds or so (the average weight of the weight stable controls), should have been able to have equivalent habits to those controls and maintain that weight as their BMR should be equivalent. Clearly the data shows your claim to be false. They need to maintain an increased activity level and lower fat intake in order to maintain the same weight.

@bmacs27 You're using every cliche in the book. Basal Metabolic Rates vary in negligible amounts between people of the same gender, age, height, and weight. If your body doesn't get the energy it needs from an outside source, it will break down itself for fuel. And your anecdotal evidence means very little. Argue all you want about how body fat has little to do with health, but don't go saying some people can't lose it (genetic conditions notwithstanding).

dunno if you're trying (and failing to be funny) or if your ignorance really is that breath-taking...

A creature that needs food to survive ate food.
The nuance was lost on him. Music + Cliche movie scene + unexpectedly clumsy turtle = more than an animal eating food.
Ted Koppel: Fox News 'Bad for America'
Take any one statement of Bill O'Reilly here (for example, "You can't be on top as long as the Fox News Channel has been on top, 'annnsell'-(slurred, cocktails @ 2pm) and sell a product that's inferior or dishonest, it's impossible in this country.")
What the fuck does that actually mean? Nothing. Anyone that has an I.Q. of 90 should see his blathering for absolute shit.
NOw...
Compare that statement to any statement taken out of context during a speech by either party's candidate to the presidency and you will hear he same rhetorical bullshit regarding fuck-all and who cares. FOR EXAMPLE:
"Are we going to make it easier for you to afford your degree and pay off your student loan debt? (Applause.) Are we going to build more good schools and hire more good teachers, so that our kids are prepared to attend colleges like Iowa State, and prepared for the 21st century workforce? (Applause.)"....to robots at Iowa State University,Barack Obama - August 28, 2012.
Meaningless phrases strewn together cliche', with positive verbal gestures and cued pauses inducing applause as to be rendered ephemeral as soon as they are uttered.
Now kids-Go back to your dorm rooms, remember to vote on Nov. 2nd for the Not-Mormon, and play some more Mario Cart for quarters.
All news channels in the UK and the U.S. are total, and complete, sheit....great for infotainment and a sort of barometer of our progress towards idiocracy.

Fan Made Captain Planet Movie Trailer
You know, more often than not these things demonstrate how hard it is to actually make something that doesn't suck.
This is no exception.
(crap acting, hokey dialogue, cliched plot points)
