*sigh* I guess developers now realize you can sacrifice decent gameplay by adding rainbow-farting unicorns or foam sports fingers. Like how over-abundant CGI replaces good storytelling in movies. I shudder to think what's next.

I fucking knew it! I was saying to someone a year or so back that the OS may become the browser. And here they are with apps built with HTML5 and JS. I definitely think that's the way things are going.

Still, can we trust the creators of IE? *shudder*

It is kinda of weird to me that you are using this Australian film as an indictment of Hollywood. When I hear "Hollywood" I think of the American film industry. If this film end up being released in the U.S., I would appreciate it if everyone just pretended I never made this comment...

>> ^RFlagg:
How do these things get made? Quality films like del Toro's At the Mountains of Madness may never see the light of day, but we get this... Hey Hollywood, I think I know why you don't make the kind of money you would like to make, and it has nothing to do with bit torrents or Red Box/Netflix renting movies and killing sales...

>> ^probie:
I shudder to think this is Hollywood's answer to all the people like me complaining about remakes. I want original movies.....but not this.

Glad none of them felt the urge to take their clothes off. Shudder.

God, why did I watch this. ew ew ew ew.
I think they might be tubifex worms. *shudders*

I hope this doesn't throw gasoline on the fire. That asshole was loved by many. If they kill people for burning a Koran, I shudder to think about the next weeks.

Hey BB, I echo your hopes that this doesn't happen. That said, I do want to underscore that OBL gave the US little choice after what he has done. If there are any repercussions as a result of this, I would assert that this is an excuse rather than a reason.


To build on and slightly modify your analogy..... the crappy US foreign policy overall since the 50's represents gallons and gallons of fuel. If anything happens because of this, it's a spark to that tinder.

I think you are correct...

What is this? Country rap? ::shudder::

I'll admit it... I went looking.

Economy of Ivory Coast:

The Ivorian economy is largely market based and depends heavily on the agricultural sector. Almost 70% of the Ivorian people are engaged in some form of agricultural activity. Côte d'Ivoire is among the world's largest producers and exporters of coffee, cocoa beans, and palm oil.

This is serious. A chocolate shock could shake our slowly recovering economy, and it makes me shudder to think of how this could impact Starbuck's. *shudder*

Now before someone mentions it: Yes, Ivory Coast produces oil. But they are #59 in oil production volume, producing about 60,000 barrels a day. (Libya produces over 25 times that volume.) Hell, even Italy, Trinidad and Tobago, and East Timor produce more oil than Ivory Coast. So oil is a negligible factor in the equation, thus making Ivory Coast itself a negligible factor.

Ivory Coast has over 20 million people. (Libya, by comparison, has roughly 6.5 million people.) Its civil war has been going off and on for almost 9 years. Thousands and thousands of people have died; millions have become refugees. It was hoped that the 2010 presidential election would bring peace to their country, but obviously it has not. This isn't a new problem; it's been going on for years. Yet silence. Yet no intervention.

But on the first day of NATO operations in Libya, the US fired 118 Tomahawk missiles. (Britain, for its part, fired 6.) You want intervention? You got it, motherfucker.

Fuck this.

It's a scary and strange point you're making. Unfortunately, this is the kind of support that could lead to potentially disastrous consequences.

strangely, i hope she stays in the spotlight. george bush woke some people up with his idiocy, and palin is a great example of the ridiculousness of the american political system. and it seems like americans need a constant reminder. fucking sheep. or maybe i'm being ridiculous. but i feel that the political system is so out of the hands of the american people, that we need the becks, the limbaughs, and the palins to keep driving it out of the bounds of reality so that people continue to wake up from their decades-long complacency.
I shudder at the thought of a smooth talking reagan type leading the republicans and pushing their agenda.
Course at the same time i'm pissed at a smooth talking supposedly liberal president mouthing progressive values while he's sucking corporate dick and continuing two wars that are bankrupting this country.
or maybe i'm just a pessimist. Citizens United vs. Fed Election Commission anyone?
IMO people make change, not politicians.
