        I think the Step Up movies handle the dance scenes pretty well though the writing/acting/etc between the dancing is weak. - Dano Jul 19, 14:43 1
        
        I'll back this up. -- nm - Max Jul 19, 14:55

- that would have been better at a Pirates game. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 19, 14:21
Sort of related to the quotation I posted yesterday. "If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign..." - Dr.Vermin Jul 19, 14:15 10
- [deleted] 1
  - Indeed. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 19, 14:25

- (I'd also be amused at Christians leaning on Bertrand "Celestial Teapot" Russell for support) -- nm - Reagen Jul 19, 14:19
- If someone thinks 2+2=5, that may or may not affect me. if someone is actively working to discriminate and opress a segment of society - Reagen Jul 19, 14:18 5
  - You're going far beyond "opinion" there. - Dr.Vermin Jul 19, 14:21 3
    - Assuming we're still talking about Chik-Fil-A, it's exactly the same thing, since they're working towards enacting their viewpoint on society. -- nm - Reagen Jul 19, 14:23 2
      - Ah. See, no we're not. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 19, 14:24
      - [deleted]
  - Additionally, if the person who believes 2+2=5 clings to that belief and that obstinance affects your life in any way, you feel anger, not pity. -- nm - pmb Jul 19, 14:20
i am actually somewhat impressed with the indignation and anger at today's Blind Item at CDAN. -- (link) - Andie Jul 19, 14:10 30
- So if these people know specifics about these blind items, how are they different from Paterno, et. al. at Penn State? -- nm - Dano Jul 19, 14:18 1
  - totally agree. -- nm - Andie Jul 19, 14:19
- (sounds like Brooke Shields) -- nm - Reagen Jul 19, 14:12 27
  - my immediate thought was Drew. -- nm - Andie Jul 19, 14:13 26
    - I think it's somebody older than those two. -- nm - mara Jul 19, 14:43
    - Since the item insists that she had "parents", I think we have to rule out both Brooke and Drew, since both were raised by single moms. -- nm - loosilu Jul 19, 14:18 1
      - Blind item details are often fudged a bit, to make them harder to identify conclusively. -- nm - Roger More Jul 19, 14:23
    - Drew is more then a "solid B actress" and shes still involved with lots of stuff....and somehow I think she was doing drugs before 13. -- nm - Walt_Disney Jul 19, 14:15 1
      - more than that ... she was like 8 years old in ET. -- nm - loosilu Jul 19, 14:28

        indeed -- nm - Epiphany Jul 19, 14:42
      - this I could see. And the rest of it fits. She does a few movies and cameos. -- nm - loosilu Jul 19, 14:19 4

        the hole for me is that she didn't do many TV shows when she was younger. -- nm - loosilu Jul 19, 14:27 2
        
        it says "show ", but it never actually says tv. -- nm - Andie Jul 19, 14:32 1
        
        true. -- nm - loosilu Jul 19, 14:34
      - he was arrested for that? I thought it was for owning erotica? -- nm - Remlik Jul 19, 14:17 2
