Is Imgur the original source of that?

I get them from Reddit. Imgur is just an image hosting website, so when the creators make the images, they upload them through Imgur and post them on Reddit.

Many times people will upload somebody’s the original creator’s work on Imgur without the creator’s permission, so I always like to see the original source given credit.

when you have a history of being bullied, it becomes harder to just laugh it off when someone insults you.

The sad thing about this is that some of those who were so badly bullied are now even worse bullies themselves because they could not or would not break the cycle. I got bullied myself when I was younger and I do try to NOT wreak the same havoc on others but that does not stop them from wreaking said havoc on others.

For a while we had a bit of a bully climate from some here … I’m glad to see that it is slowly changing towards the better recently.

I was bullied for a time when I was school, had an adolescent weight problem. It turned out to really mold me into a better person, I believe. I ended up in a few fights around the 7th-8th grades and by the 9th, I had respect from everyone, not respect by fear, but a respect by being stand up and never backing down. I ended up using this reputation to lift up people and protect others. It ended up being a career, I particularly enjoyed turning the tables on bullies as a cop. I once caught some teens bullying a poor kid and I proceeded to dress them down in almost drill sergeant fashion and they were so scared of me they couldn’t do anything about it. One later approached me and thanked me, made him “see the light” so to speak.

"Reyncarnation" Theory
Time

Windows7Guy100 said:

There is a theory out there that Rey is the reincarnation of Anakin Skywalker. What do you think of it? How would you feel if they went through with it? Reincarnation is a concept that has never been explored in the Star Wars universe.

The Clone Wars/Rebels executive producer Dave Filoni also worked on Avatar: The Last Airbender, which revolves hevily around reincarnation, and they have confirmed that they are bringing a character from TCW into Rouge One. Different Star Wars projects get ideas, stories, and concepts from each other, so I believe that Avatar, deliberately or not, has brought a new concept to Star Wars

No.

LOL so true. I tend to avoid all anime other than Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra but I don’t even think those even count.

Yes, they count.

Also, @ Frink: Has anyone (like a family member or a co-worker) ever walked in on you while you were watching hentai?

I’m not dumb enough to watch anime at home or work. I don’t know how many times I have to tell you guys I do it for science. Science is done in labs.

I thought this was your work.

I’ve seen it. All 7 minutes. It’s not a movie.

Let’s see…

New Oxford American Dictionary said:

movie |ˈmo͞ovē|

noun chiefly N. Amer.

a story or event recorded by a camera as a set of moving images and shown in a theater or on television; a motion picture.

  • Story or event recorded by a camera? Check.
  • Set of moving images? Check.
  • Shown in a theater or on television? Check.

So each episode of the O’Reilly Factor is a movie?

See this.

So yes, every single thing on tv is a movie.

Next time you’re watching The OC with someone (that’s still a thing with kids, right?), ask them how they are enjoying the movie. See how that goes.

Well, you may not want to use it in casual speak. Just like most people just say “phone” when what they’re talking about is a “smartphone”.

Ah, so a television show is a “smartmovie.” Makes perfect sense.

iMovie?
