For the lols

[Lord Hosk]

Thats not very polite.

[Master Gunner]

My apologies.

[gcninja]

I must ask, where is your sharp blade on your body?

[Master Gunner]

That is a question you would sleep better at night not knowing the answer to.

[Metcarfre]

Well, where does Wolverine keep his?

[gcninja]

Both his parents were extreme lumberjacks and so his were a mutation of wood and bone located between his knuckles. However, through a still theoretical experiment, they made them metal.

They were Coated in metal and were originally bone. His "parents" were rich farm owners who adopted him from his biological father their grounds keeper who wolverine would later kill in retaliation for the murder of his adopted father.

[ex-Lurker]

I can only say one thing with certainty. So much as try to take away our health care, and we will cut you.

Thanks Master Gunner, now I have another webcomic to read .

Oh God.

In other words, his penis.

[Fezzul]

The thing is, if you cut them, the healthcare system would stitch them up again...

Victoria Coren on why 50 Shades of Grey is so popular.

Tom Jones of the 21st-century?

I've STILL written better erotica than E.L. James.


In other news, dunno whether I should post this here, or in the Venting Thread:





Aaaaand

I know! Why do starbucks and target have a stance on same sex marriage?

[goat]

Actually two different reasons. Starbucks and Target take the "for" side because it's good for their liberal middle class white people demographic that makes up a majority of their business. Even if it is the "morally correct" stance (and if you say it isn't, we need to have words), no company would ever risk alienating their customers like that unless it were profitable. Even if they have always been secretly for it, where the fuck have they been for the last 30 years?

The chicken chain that shall go unmentioned has taken the "against" stance because their founders are crazy-ass, bible-banging motherfuckers who force the views of their management on the rest of the company. Notably, it's not money in this case, as the fact that they've been slipping money to anti-gay rights lobbyists has surfaced a couple of times, but this is by far the biggest press it has ever gotten.

So that's why. 1)money and 2)top-down "moral" choices

Oh, and if the WBC supporting unnamed chicken restaurant isn't lawl worthy, I don't know what is.

[Tycherin]

I think the point to be made is that when I go to a fast-food chicken place, I'm going to be concerned with questions like: Is their chicken any good? Do they have low prices? Do their bathrooms look like a disaster at the sewage plant? and NOT: Do they support gay marriage? Because I go to fast food restaurants for food, not political statements.

[Ottoman]

It's funny because people think that where they choose to spend their money will make a difference.

[Dominic Appleguard]

I agreed with Patrick Stewart earlier in the thread, but LGBT rights debates aren't very funny.

Let's get back on track, shall we?

[empath]

...w...wait; you mean to tell me that PhelpsCo™ came out in support of...well, ANYTHING?!?

Man, butter my toes and call me an English muffin!


ANYWAY,







This is also going on the Thread of Win.

[Geoff_B]

Sounds like that guy's read Life, The Universe and Everything

[empath]

Yeah; felt familiar. Hope it's legit, but even if not? Still both amusing and heartening.

Moving right along...

[Geoff_B]

Seems a bit polite for Director Fury

[empath]

True, but remember it's an official memorandum that HIS higher ups can see; he's gotta be on his best behaviour.

The near-breaking point for MY willing disbelief is that, less than a week ago, a U.S. government official worked up an official memorandum on an antiquated impact typewriter on aged, yellowed paper...

[The Jester]

My favourite one of those is the one where the Doctor clearly wrote it, pretending to be Fury, all about how the crew of the hellicarrier should ignore the big blue box in a holding room and that the aliens in engineering (or somewhere; I don't really remember) who were clearly masquerading as humans should just give themselves up.

It actually wouldn't surprise me that a government agency with the biggest and best in terms of weaponry and vehicle would still be using antiquated office equipment. Or maybe that's just how Director Fury rolls.

[Geoff_B]

I would still have expected more bottom references.
