When all flights are over $200, but RyanAir is $39, you kinda have to consider it, right? -- nm - ty97 Oct 17, 02:03 6
- in my experience ryanair usually ends up being in the neighbourhood of 1/2 to 2/3 the others one the fees go in. -- nm - mafic Oct 17, 02:33
- if you walk into it knowing it's going to suck, I think you're fine. -- nm - miss amanda jones Oct 17, 02:23
- only if it's an apples to apples comparison - hachiko Oct 17, 02:04 3
  - I was thinking this, and there are some dumb fees, but I'm sure it adds all the way up. - ty97 Oct 17, 02:14 2
    - "oh, you want a *seat*?" - Ryan Air Oct 17, 06:14 1
      - laughing - ty97 Oct 17, 06:15

I must be extremely desensitized. A Serbian Movie didn't really disturb me at all. -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 21:52 23
- I'll never know. -- nm - TFox Oct 16, 21:54 22
  - I wish I had totally missed this thread. - Stephen Oct 16, 22:42 1
    - Word. -- nm - Jim Oct 17, 06:36

        maybe we shouldn't trust that Wiki entry, trust Dano instead -- nm - mud Oct 16, 22:15 4
        
        I'm just reading the wiki entry now, but I was expecting much worse. -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:19 3
        
        (Not that I would really recommend it or anything.) -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:26 2
        
        I can't imagine any redeeming aspect of it. A metaphor for the Serbian psyche and its angst? -- nm - mud Oct 16, 22:27 1
        
        What it is ostensibly "about" is how authoritarian powers can coerce and force people into committing atrocities. - Dano Oct 16, 23:02
      - spoilers - TFox Oct 16, 22:02 11
        
        It's just so ridiculous, it might as well be Satan anally raping someone with a baseball bat. -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:05 10
        
        oh, that I'd pay to see - mud Oct 16, 22:11
        
        I actually haven't fully wrapped my head around why this movie is even legal to screen. - TFox Oct 16, 22:09 8
        
        Because none of it actually happens? -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:12 7
        
        The Simpsons don't exist in real life either. I think the law is fairly clear on that point. -- nm - TFox Oct 16, 22:12 6
        
        The law does include the phrase "...and lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value" because of Supreme Court rulings. -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:18 5
        
        right, which is why i assume they focus on "the really important allegory" hidden in there in Q&As. - TFox Oct 16, 22:23 4
        
        (just to clarify a bit: let's say the film as a whole is kosher legally...) - TFox Oct 16, 22:30 2
        
        The only thing I will say is that the allegory is explicitly stated several times by a character in the film. It's not subtle. - Dano Oct 16, 22:47 1
        
        the simpsons porn is illegal in some states as some states call depictions of children engaged in sex,even simulated, even obvious cut and paste kids - zeitgeist Oct 16, 22:55
        
        The allegory is not hidden. Characters in the film explicitly make the connection. -- nm - Dano Oct 16, 22:29
i can't believe giantfan 99 didn't pop in for her usual :D WOO! -- nm - hachiko Oct 16, 21:45
G'evening ST - how's everyone's weekend been so far? -- nm - JenBro Oct 16, 21:39 13

  - that's awesome! (still not smoking too?) -- nm - JenBro Oct 16, 21:55 1
    - won't touch that shit. -- nm - loosilu Oct 16, 22:07

        And I prefer to see the Beaver do the pummeling. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 16, 22:13 1
        
        and i always wanted to f Marilyn Monroe -- nm - hachiko Oct 16, 22:51

        Yeah, I did. They were ok. That shit is legit hard. Freestyling is a whole separate skill from rapping almost. - TFox Oct 16, 21:50 1
        
        it looks crazy hard. I couldn't even begin. -- nm - loosilu Oct 16, 22:10
    - phht [not a fan] -- nm - mud Oct 16, 21:38 4
      - I'm not a huge fan of Eminem either, but I agree with Will -- surprisingly solid and good movie. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 16, 21:44 3
        
        Yup, I was surprised by how good it was too. - Stephen Oct 16, 21:54
        
        After watching that movie, I figured he's probably got more charisma than 95% of what passes for Hollywood stars nowadays. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 16, 21:48 1
        
        He had probably the best scene in Funny People too. -- nm - TFox Oct 16, 21:50
hey max, did you see Cap'n Sig and his buddies worked out a deal to return to Deadliest Catch next season? - hachiko Oct 16, 21:26 6
- i'll bet the show died with capt phil, it'll take a season to figure it out, though they might have a very special episode with one getting married -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 16, 22:07
- king crab season started yesterday -- nm - peglegpete Oct 16, 21:35 2
  - mmmmm king crab is yummy -- nm - JenBro Oct 16, 21:45
  - perfect. just in time for max to end his hunger strike -- nm - hachiko Oct 16, 21:38
- Sig probably threw a chair in the meeting and bullied the studio into giving up their share. -- nm - Max Oct 16, 21:30 1
  - tied mike rowe to a crabpot and threatened to hoist it over -- nm - zeitgeist Oct 16, 21:43

  - looking at SNL repeat. I realize Katy Perry's not really supposed to be about great vocals, but jeez. Here's a pail to carry that tune. -- nm - Diva Oct 16, 21:14 2
    - and if she's going to sing a song about skin tight jeans, is it too much to ask that she dress the part? -- nm - Max Oct 16, 21:25
    - Elmo looks *great* though. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 16, 21:20
