  1. I just mentioned that phrase in another thread. That shit still makes me mad. A) They thought it was okay to write it. B) No one else had the balls to say it wasn't cool and let it go to print.
  2. Yes because FOX is the only news source. CNN and MSNBC don't exist. As for your second statement. That wasn't even what I was getting at. I'm talking about silly shit like only Asian people can work on Asian properties. Only Black people can work on Black properties. People wanted Iron Fist to be Asian because assuming a martial artist has to be Asian isn't racist at all. You want talk about Miles Morales Thor. "By Odin's Fade.." Yeah, you assumed. However, unlike the euphemism, you made an ass out of you not me. Edit: Just saw your response to @Hawkingbirdif are going go that route. I think I won't even waste my time replying to your nonsense.
  3. I'm at work. So I can't respond in the detailed fashion I'd like to. But I disagree with you almost entirely. The "Now it's liberals trying to censor people openly expressing their bigoted views" is the biggest piled of BS I've seen since I lived on a farm as a 5 year old. Yes the news media and geek culture (Comic/gaming) are bastions of conservatism 🙄
  4. Every time I someone mentions Bill Duke I hear "I'm gonna have me some fun" in my head from Predator. Poor Mac.....
  5. You aren't fooling anyone fam. We know the J stands for Jigsaw and we don't "want to play a game." 🙃
  6. @axeman61@Reticently Thanks for the insight guys. I don't doubt what she's saying is possible, I just am too jaded to take things at face value anymore. That said, I remember Chadwick Boseman (RIP), giving Sienna Miller part of his salary because she was getting lowballed. IIRC He didn't want anyone to know, but after he passed. She brought it up to show what kind of man he was.
  7. Was it her gender or was it because she isn't that big of a star? Honest question, maybe she's been in a bunch of stuff I haven't seen over the years.
  8. Tesla's have kit car built quality but luxury pricing. It's ludicrous.
  9. Cestus, it's insanity. When I was growing up the super conservatives were lunatics trying to censor everything. Now that I'm a grown man, it's the hyper liberals trying to censor everything. Which frankly is worse, unlike the super conservatives of my youth, these hyper liberals have actually gotten themselves in positions to implement some of their nonsense. The people censoring things today were the people fighting against the censorship in my youth. The people fighting censorship now were burning books and running over CDs when I was kid. It's pure madness man.
  10. The bolded part is just a flat out silly thing to say. A parent being present in a child's life having a positive outcome doesn't require foresight. It should be common sense. There are numerous studies that support the importance of parents being in the home. The contortionism being exhibited to defend Sonya's bad parenting is mind-blowing. Sonya prioritized HERSELF over her family. Work was just the excuse to do it. At the end of he day, she's not even the key cog in Earth's defense. The most important aspect of her defense of Earth, her fighting ability, didn't even require her to be a General. Sonya did the type of thing that dudes rightfully get roasted for. She was an absentee parent. Edit: Your "It's hindsight" argument is weak. You can do better.
  11. I miss Robert Stack. He'd be on the case.
  12. So you realize, that Johnny also protects Earthrealm. Sonya isn't the only one guarding the Earthrealm. Jax had PTSD and still managed to raise his daughter. You are excusing her inexcusable behavior. Excusing it with a responsibility she shares with other's that actually do the adult thing and take care of their damned kids. Her situation isn't unique other than her shirking her duties as a parent. Glad Johnny raised their daughter right, since she actually saved Earthrealm. At least with Sindel (reboot Sindel is fucking trash) and Kronika around she's only gets the bronze medal in MK's bad motherhood competition.
  13. Sonya literally left her husband and kid for her job. She's a jackass plain and simple. Johnny grew up, she never did.
  14. Being a dad improved Johnny Cage's character by leaps and bounds. I honestly liked the fact that Sonya, not Johnny, ended up being the worse parent. Completely the opposite of how you'd think the situation would end up.
  15. That would require Chun Li to be 25 to 29 in SFIV. 25 I can buy, she was 23 in SF2 but given the proximity in the time line to SF2, anything older is pushing it. At work, so I can't check my link to the guide.
  16. Agreed, but Guy's taken. You save his fiance', Maki's sister, in Final Fight 2. I think we are of similar minds here. I don't like my games being on narrative treadmill. I was literally a child when SF2 dropped and now I'm middle aged. Having Ryu on the SNH conflict train with Bison jobbing for three decades got old....15 years ago. Characters need to grow. Have them running in place is boring.
  17. Game is set years after SF3, Ibuki probably has 5 kids by 4 different baby daddies by now.
  18. None of us can. All we can do is wait for the pendulum to swing out of crazy town. Hopefully this happens before I hit 50....if I hit 50 🤔
  19. Unfortunately, since you left out 43,788 genders, you've been scheduled for cancellation. You may issue a Twitter apology, However that will only get you crucified more. As your attorney, I recommend you keep silent. Another faux controversy will appear in the next 24 hours and the Twitter Outrage Mob will move on.
  20. Hey, thank YouTube. A few months back, they randomly recommended her track highlights. When I checked the comments, 90%of them said, "I'm not sure why YouTube recommended this but I'm not complaining."
