Some of the friendly faces around here haven’t been so friendly lately. Lots of grouchiness. On the other hand, some people have changed over the years from friendly to cynical, sarcastic smart-you-know-whats. So sudden grouchiness and gradual grouchiness are coming to a head. Extra grouchiness all around.

'Tis the season. Happens every year.
I’ve actually been in a fairly pleasant mood lately. Maybe only compared to the silly bitchiness I’ve been surrounded by, but I’ll take what I can get!

Are The Prequels That Bad?

The Star Wars prequels are okay. Remember children that the original trilogy had some clunky ass dialogue and acting in it as well. And Luke and Leia being brother and sister is pretty ridiculous and gross.

Here it is again! My favorite argument!
“Remember, all of the Star Wars movies are bad, so don’t pick on the PT!”

I have an easy enough time divorcing actors from their characters, so this news won’t impede my ability to watch TOS or the TOS movies in the future.

I usually have no problem separating art from the artist. Most people ain’t no good and anybody who believes otherwise is a fool.
Still, it’s really a downer when someone you appreciate turns out to be a monster like Cosby.
I’ll still be able to watch and laugh at Louie despite the ugly news, but Cosby’s offenses have made that impossible.
(also, Louie being honest about it all is taking steps in the direction of helping others in similar situations come forward and That’s Good.)

I feel like the fans just hate on it for no reason I feel like all of the complaints are nit picks let’s be 100% Honest everyone in Star Wars is a mary sue luke, Anakin, Obi Wan ,Han , even Leia is a Mary Sue everyone in Star Wars is a Mary Sue I think we should just hold everyone to the same Standard

This is my favorite type of argument:
"ALL of the Star Wars movies are crap, so why pick on this one?"
Used to just be a PT fan thing. Not anymore!

I am trying to say hold all the characters to the same Standard

No, you’re saying all Star Wars characters are bad (“mary sues”). And that isn’t true at all.

Truck advertisement. Dodge RAM, I think. Guy cleaning out his truck and going through memories of raising his family, song playing in background and a voice over saying something about how nothing lasts, “but you get to keep the memories.” A fine ad.
But then… lyrics from the song come forward: "Time, she said, there’s no turning back."
And with those words I sink into a deep sadness. Total depression. Every. Time. And the ad seems to run constantly. I have to change the channel.
