Is that how people talk in your local dive bars or back in Tucson? Because it's certainly not how we do things here.
Not on my watch.
And honestly, being dismissed by people like you two is actually kind of an honor.

Enough already!

I mean, what can I even say to that... 😲

Rachel Sanchez11 said:I might just have to start a poll specifically for you.

Just in case you weren't aware.

Here’s another one who’s a bit too sensitive... 🙄

Michael Adams2, would you say this guy is officially endangered, or is he just being a total pain?

Damn...

Just when things were finally getting interesting...

Soylent said:I’m looking to get dustypilot22 banned because of those fascist theories of theirs!

go2s said:I noticed that toxicity immediately; I actually wrote a bit about it myself.

Hannah Edwards said:Exactly!

The jalnuiški way of pushing things onto you is subtle, but it's definitely there.

I’m all for it!

And my suggestion is >> IGNORE THE TROLLS

First and foremost,

those jalnuš types.

Jack Johnson said:I second that request.

Now I might start sounding conceited... 😳

sooooojleeeeent said:He’d probably try to stage a production of "The Tempest" using 250,000 extras just to see if he could.

Let's be realistic here—it would take at least 201,631 extras, please.

dustyscout53 said:Let's hope so. 👍 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏

😁 😁

A lot of people are feeling optimistic..

Saying "next year" is such a peaceful way to handle all this anticipation, isn't it?

I'm right there with you.

Next year!

👍

Next year. 😁

Michael Adams2 said:dustypilot22... what about Ćiro Blažević? Come on, give us your take on his coaching expertise and how he completely turned things around for Hajduk.

That incredible match against Cincinnati really threw me off my game... 😢

Joshua Evans9 said:Man, not really... Ajax beat Hajduk 6-0.😢
But let's be fair... things were pretty chaotic back then, and that was an away game. Plus, they actually lost to the eventual champions later that season. And that was just in the quarterfinals!

First off, that Ajax squad was likely one of the greatest teams to ever step onto a pitch.

Second—Hajduk actually managed to beat an Ajax side of that caliber 1-0 in the first leg in Vienna.

That was honestly pretty rough to watch.

I’m not entirely certain, but I think this might be the toughest European defeat Hajduk has ever faced in its entire 94-year history.

However, unlike what Joshua Edwards4 thinks, I feel like if things don't fundamentally change within American soccer (and specifically within Hajduk), we could actually see things get much worse.

If I were still as obsessed with football as I was 15 or 20 years ago, I don't think I would have survived watching last night's match.

Brian Moore67 said:I haven't seen it myself. It hasn't been released on Blu-ray in forever, so I'm honestly not sure if it even exists. When I went looking for it about two years ago, there was nothing available.

If anyone manages to track it down first, would you mind letting me know? 👍

Brian Moore67 said:I make a point of buying really great movies.

Speaking of which, do you happen to have "Mediterranean" on Disney? (With the American dub, obviously)

Quentin Tarantino

Mickey Mouse said:It’s honestly pretty tough to follow the plot if you didn't grow up reading comic books. Don't you think it helps to have that background?

I’ve been reading comics for a long time, and honestly? I still am. I guess you could say I'm a bit of a fanatic.

To be honest, I hadn't even heard of that specific comic strip until recently, let alone actually sat down to read it. Have you ever stumbled upon something like that?
Quentin Tarantino

Mickey Mouse said:The pacing is incredibly fast since it follows the rhythm of the comic book.

That sounds about right to me.
Quentin Tarantino

Mickey Mouse said:Is it possible that Quentin Tarantino just ended up editing that one scene in the car where Les talks?

Got it. I'm ready to go. Just send over the text you need me to work on!
Quentin Tarantino

Mickey Mouse said:The film is just so intense and dark, isn't it?

It’s probably best to just let the movie speak for itself. 😁
Quentin Tarantino

Mickey Mouse said:The movie stays true to the comic book roots, but the violence is so highly stylized that it doesn't actually feel gruesome. Honestly, I don’t quite get why people are so obsessed with linking Quentin Tarantino solely to violence. Are his films really that much more violent than your average Hollywood action flick? Isn't it true that violence just hits a bit harder? It’s more direct, isn't it?Think about it—if you take a director like Oliver Stone and look at his work on *Natural Born Killers*, isn't it easily a hundred times more intense than anything Quentin Tarantino has ever put out?

Violence just has a more direct impact, doesn't it?

That’s probably why, isn't it?

dustypilot22 said:but they had to cut quite a bit for the theatrical release, didn't they?

I suppose that’s why the plot felt a little bit muddled at times. 🤔

P.S.
The film is visually stunning, honestly. (Though I wonder if they really needed Quentin. You could argue that the excessive violence is his signature touch.)

NOlogo said:I honestly think

these right-wingers are just completely lost... I mean, they use the exact same tired tropes over and over again, and frankly, they come across as incredibly crude (ugh 😲 🙄
they cling to these rigid dogmas they claim are virtues, and they’re just loud and aggressive... all in all, it's exhausting >> buh 🙄 😳 😁

But where are the real intellectuals? Where are the well-read, open-minded guys—those cosmopolitan souls who are actually above all this narrow-minded nonsense? WHERE ARE THEY???

😕 🙄 😳

Revka... 🙄

Maybe it's time you took a little break. 👋

😁

What are we all waiting for at this point???!!!!

Keith James812 said:dustypilot22, I was just sitting here thinking today... and you know, I've decided that it's actually your moral duty and obligation to come pick me up and convince me that we should go for a swim together..

In my dreams! 😳

Keith James812 said:Well, you know my... I mean, how can we be sure he wasn't actually talking about a shark? 🙄 Right? 😠

It sounds like he's speaking Turkish to me. 🙄

Keith James812 said:dustypilot22, I was just sitting here thinking today... and you know, I’ve come to the conclusion that it is actually your moral duty and obligation to come pick me up and convince me to go swimming with you.. 😎 And if, by some chance, you happen to reject this brilliant proposal of mine (which I have already considered), I will be waiting for you behind the pier while you're out there, pretending to be a shark, a whale, or whatever else you might be afraid of! 😎 😁

You won't have to pretend.
