  - It's Bizarro Supergirl, not Bizarro Superman. -- nm - Ender Jan 26, 08:15 5
    - Exactly. Just like Arrow is data mining Batman, Supergirl is now datamining Superman. -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 08:16 4
      - Oh! reminds me. Random question from Age of Ultron for you (spoilery I guess) - decline Jan 26, 08:21 3

    - Amen. Typically crap like this is coming from Georgia. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:12 1
      - Seriously, and you could make all that crazy stop if you just closed your borders - decline Jan 26, 08:15

- I'm not worried about this one like I'd usually be due to Bradley Cooper. - David Jan 26, 08:04
- Oh man, that means he gets busted -- nm - Max Jan 26, 08:03
- It just is not that good. -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 08:03 7
  - All the horrible things I say about you are completely true. -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:11
  - It's a shame really. It should be better. Carrie and I tried to binge watch it and we just got kinda bored by episode 3 or so. -- nm - Jim Jan 26, 08:04
  - It's just way to quirky for the NCIS-loving crowd -- nm - decline Jan 26, 08:04 1

        oh yeah. great choice. -- nm - Remlik Jan 26, 08:40
  - Right. this is going to be amusing. -- nm - Remlik Jan 26, 08:08

Repeat to yourself that national polls mean nothing right now. - iSpam Jan 26, 07:53 42
- I for one welcome our new Trump Overlord - Epiphany Jan 26, 08:03
- Do Iowa polls even mean anything? - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:01 25
  - What intrigues me about Iowa is the folks who are not polling for Trump - who is there #2 choice? - ty97 Jan 26, 08:07 23
    - Right - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:12 17
      - This is the first time I'd say Trump is the nominee over Rubio. - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:15 7
        
        The real question is how much of his "support" is actually a paper tiger that won't actually show up at the polls. -- nm - Ender Jan 26, 08:21 5
        
        I personally would love to see his epic meltdown if he finishes 2nd in Iowa - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:23 3
        
        He has a;ready called the people of Iowa stupid etc, so he would just laugh it off. -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 08:28
        
        "You're all losers. You voted for Huckabee and Santorum! I'm glad I'm not your choice!" -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:25 1
        
        "Iowa is a LOSER state that won't even exist in 5 years!!!" -- nm - Ender Jan 26, 08:27
        
        This is very true as well. - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:23
        
        Not so fast! -- nm - Pataki Jan 26, 08:17
      - Assuming the money holds, Jeb's gonna stay in until the south tells him he's wasted his time.* - David Jan 26, 08:14 8
        
        I think at best, he's done after South Carolina. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:15 7
        
        This is my guess. He won't have a single Top 3 finish including SC. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:17
        
        The popularity polling data against him thus far is truly staggering. - David Jan 26, 08:17 5
        
        I can't put my finger on it but there's something about him that makes me want to punch a baby sloth. - Mel Profit Jan 26, 08:20 4
        
        It's strange watching this unfold. - David Jan 26, 08:23 2
        
        Jeb! is so awful on the campaign I can't figure out how he was Gov. of Fl. - Mel Profit Jan 26, 08:28
        
        I think Jeb would be fairing as a better candidate today if it wasn't for W's 8 years. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:25
        
        Family get togethers have to be awkward right now. -- nm - Reagen Jan 26, 08:23
    - Exactly right. -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:10 4
      - The whole concept of caucuses is bizarre to me, and I think I dislike them, but I can't help but be intrigued. -- nm - ty97 Jan 26, 08:11 3
        
        do you understand them better than the opera though ? -- nm - decline Jan 26, 08:12 2
        
        I understand vagina better than I understand the opera. -- nm - ty97 Jan 26, 08:13 1
        
        Indeed. -- (link) - Spawn Jan 26, 08:15
  - So much depends on the screening process for the poll. Gallup got out of the presidential polling business for a reason. -- nm - Ender Jan 26, 08:05
- All things being equal, would you rather be the guy up by more than double or one of the rest? - David Jan 26, 07:54 10
  - Since results flip after Iowa the underdog is in as good a position as anyone. -- nm - Max Jan 26, 08:01
  - but they're not equal is my point. - iSpam Jan 26, 07:56 8
    - Your point isn't well founded is my point. You're comparing relatively close races against one with a clear frontrunner. -- nm - David Jan 26, 07:59 7
      - And if the Republican primary was a one day national voting, it would be a great indicator but that's not how it works. - spamlet Jan 26, 08:03 6
        
        First of all, I wish it were anything but true. Second of all, I believe you guys are falling victim to belief in a historical behavior no longer in p - David Jan 26, 08:08 5
        
        FYI, offshore wagering odds - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:16 2
        
        And that Trump # is a lot of "Logic says this shouldn't have a prayer of happening, but that's been the last 7 months...." -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:19
        
        That's actually very reasonable all the way around. - David Jan 26, 08:19
        
        Could it be that David has learned from his Star Wars: The Force Awakens experience!?! -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 08:13 1
        
        I'd rather have the right logic and the wrong outcome than vice versa. -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:15
- Ted? -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 07:54
- For instance -- (link) - iSpam Jan 26, 07:54 2
  - very true, but in contrast, when was the last time a front runner was up 22+ points at this stage of the game? -- nm - decline Jan 26, 07:57
  - Add up three of those four in combination and the lead doesn't reach this one. -- nm - David Jan 26, 07:55
if they do turn off Niagara Falls, i might drive down to see that. -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 07:52 9
- I just mentioned that to my wife ten minutes ago, I want to see that -- nm - J Jan 26, 07:57 1
  - ST: Niagarama -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 08:05
- Is this a Trump thing? -- nm - Spawn Jan 26, 07:54 5
  - I sense a new "meme" :) -- nm - JenBro Jan 26, 07:56
  - heh, no, they need to rebuild two small bridges. - Andie Jan 26, 07:54 3
    - Imagine being the people on the Lady of the Mist that day when the falls are off. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 26, 08:24 1
      - Maid of the Mist. :) I literally only did that for the first time a few years ago. It was surprisingly way more fun than I expected. -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 08:24
    - Canada's gonna steal our water!! -- nm - decline Jan 26, 07:59
- (only the US side - aka That Other Part) -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 07:53
Star Wars EU fans, just listened to an interview with Freddie Prinze Jr. (Kanan on Star Wars Rebels) and he said if you're an EU fan... - Remlik Jan 26, 07:52 3
- The mid-season trailer rocks -- nm - zork Jan 26, 08:46
- they're really upping the stories...kids fare for the under 12 crowd and some morsels for everyone older. -- nm - Mel Profit Jan 26, 08:22
- Cool. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 26, 08:02
The Colony: liked the 1st episode and liked the 2nd. It's what the show V should have been. -- nm - Remlik Jan 26, 07:51 2
- I haven't watched the second one yet, but the first was intriguing enough to give it a season pass. -- nm - The Death Sceire Jan 26, 08:06
- Agreed. what I want to see (and spec) spoils - Spawn Jan 26, 07:53
New TMNT game coming this summer. -- (link) - Shaun Jan 26, 07:48 [youtube]
Apprentice Trump was one of the best tv characters. I would lose it everytime he called someone a disaster. - Shaun Jan 26, 07:48 1

Hey Dollface... -- (link*) - David Jan 26, 07:47 [youtube] 4

  - Justification for the PS4! -- nm - David Jan 26, 08:01
- Can this paramilitary organization walk and shoot at the same time? -- nm - Ender Jan 26, 07:49 1
  - Based on the franchise to date, I'm not entirely sure they can shoot. Period. - David Jan 26, 07:50
You know that nightmare you have where you are in your underwear and... -- (link) - Spawn Jan 26, 07:46 1
- So there's 32 NFL teams, and at least 800 scouts, so...there's at least 25 scouts per team?!? -- nm - JaxSean Jan 26, 08:43
If I made a mix CD of the songs I loved to listen to circa 1987-89, I expect much of it could cause David's ears to bleed. -- nm - ty97 Jan 26, 07:46 3
- A single note of Cher's voice would do the trick. - David Jan 26, 07:50 1
  - There's no such thing as a single note in modern Cher music. -- nm - Max Jan 26, 08:03
- Erasure, Cher, Communards? -- nm - groiny Jan 26, 07:49
"This guy adds the legitimacy the Oregon Militia so desperately needed." -- (link) - Beaker Jan 26, 07:45
boobs -- nm - Beaker Jan 26, 07:42
"Go ahead, make my day." -- nm - David Jan 26, 07:42 3
- It saddens me to say that I think Trump would actually get *more* votes if he shot a guy in the middle of 5th Avenue. - Spawn Jan 26, 07:43 2
  - It's like watching Putin run for POTUS. - David Jan 26, 07:48
  - Particularly if the person was a minority or a certain religion. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 26, 07:45
