  • [After comments on young people masturbating and being made to resign]

    Clinton's chief of staff, Leon Panetta, remarked, "There have been too many areas where the President does not agree with her views. This is just one too many."

    She had different views from Clinton's views on how young people should be channeling their sexuality? And that's a bad thing?

  • WHY DID HE ACCEPT THAT MONEY IF HE IS SUCH A FAN OF HERS? ISN’T THAT A MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION?

    I mean... He thinks Harris paying Springsteen would count as a campaign contribution???

    Every time I think I have a handle on how stupid he is, he says something even stupider.

  • He was probably imagining his voice being used in official media like more movies, not anyone loading up a free-to-play game and making it seem like he's saying all kinds of crazy shit.

    But it seems the SAG-AFTRA lawsuit is about a different issue, defending the jobs of their members who do/could do the work of Darth Vader's voice since JEJ's death.

    “However, we must protect our right to bargain terms and conditions around uses of voice that replace the work of our members, including those who previously did the work of matching Darth Vader’s iconic rhythm and tone in video games,” the release continues. “Fortnite’s signatory company, Llama Productions, chose to replace the work of human performers with A.I. technology. Unfortunately, they did so without providing any notice of their intent to do this and without bargaining with us over appropriate terms. As such, we have filed an unfair labor practice charge with the NLRB against Llama Productions.”

  • "The same way she missed Covids 1-18! CHECKERMATE, LIBTARDS!"

  • Just to check, I kept going and it was 50 questions (!) before one applied to the characters I SHOT J R.

  • Thanks!

    I saw it uses a flowchart approach (e.g. serifs or no serifs), which seems like a good alternative to the OCR approach but also had me thinking I might have to go through a lot of questions (some which I might not know how to answer) before getting a result.

    But as soon as I did step 1 (serifs), the "Popular Matches" sidebar showed Cooper Black second from top! :)

  • It is the single best demonstration of the damage cocaine does to people. Before there was "this is your brain on drugs", there was the Star Wars Holiday Special.

    Watch it with your children so that they think "Holy crap, if this is what people come up with on coke, I never want to even try the stuff!"

  • Ctrl+f: "holiday special" - Phrase not found.

    This thread epic fail.

  • Thanks!

    1. No wonder he looked familiar... Tariq Aziz, Saddam's foreign minister during the Gulf War.
