😁

so, where's Batman? 😕

I’d totally cast my vote, but I honestly can't find any sign of Marisol anywhere 😢

Umpa said:He wouldn't even make it to the first round of Stalin's purges; those cleansings would have snatched him up before he could even get his footing.

I honestly wouldn't want to be stuck sitting in that third row if I had any say in the matter. 😁I mean, seriously, why is everyone so quick to just tear Stalin down? I feel like people overlook the fact that there’s actually a ton of testimony out there regarding his more humanistic achievements... you know, if you actually look for them. Like, take this one story, for example—it's such a warm, deeply human account of his impact:

So, picture this: Stalin is standing there giving one of his massive, heavy-duty speeches at a high-level meeting of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, right? And suddenly, in the middle of all this intense rhetoric, someone just lets out a sneeze. Stalin snaps instantly—just loses it—and bellows, "WHO SNEEZED!?" The room goes dead silent. Not a single soul dares to even breathe, let alone speak up. A furious Stalin shouts, "FIRST ROW, PREPARE FOR EXECUTION!" He tries to get back into his speech, but then—get this—someone sneezes again. Stalin flies off the handle once more: "WHO SNEEZED!?" Total silence again. "SECOND ROW, PREPARE FOR EXECUTION." The Great leader just keeps rolling with his lecture, but then, for the third time, someone sneezes. Stalin screams, "WHO SNEEZED!?" At this point, the guy who actually did the sneezing is thinking, like, "Well, I might as well own up to it, since I’m probably getting shot anyway," so he stands up and says, "It was me." And Stalin just looks at him and goes, "Bless you!" 😁

Honestly, I feel like people really blow Stalin out of proportion, you know? Like, everyone treats him like this ultimate monster, but if you actually look at the nuances, he wasn't quite the boogeyman everyone makes him out to be. 😁

P.S... imagine this playing to the tune of something like "Don't Go Breaking My Heart"

things will look up eventually

Has anyone actually messed around with that XP Lite little tool? I'm wondering if anyone here has tried it out—specifically, if you go through with stripping out all those extra Windows XP components, does everything stay running smooth and tip-top, or do you start running into weird glitches and bugs down the road?

Roger Reed49 said:Man, you totally read my mind there.😁 😁 😁

🙂.. were you actually doubting me? 😁

I mean, what am I even supposed to do when it’s clearly way out of my league 😢.. crimsonorca86, did you happen to be the one who wrote that presentation? 😁

Roger Reed49 said:hold up, hold up... does something feel a little off to you here?😁

🙂 😁 😁 😁.. seriously though, I'm gonna lay it out for you, just so you don't come back later and try to mess with me again🙄 😁

Roger Reed49 said:Kind of like what the OP was getting at, I guess.😁

👍 👍 👍

Roger Reed49 said:If you spend even five minutes scrolling through this page, you’re probably gonna end up in tears.😁

Yeah, I definitely went there, but honestly, it’s kind of like watching that movie "Dumb and Dumber"... some people are just so incredibly dense that it stops being funny and actually starts getting on my nerves.😁

Roger Reed49 said:Man, don't even try to defend yourself here; you basically just cited some absolute moron's garbage link as if it actually meant something.
It’s honestly just some drunken rambling by a campfire at this point.

The kind of guy who starts a thread is exactly the kind of guy who posts a link like that. 😁

Charles Bronson 🙂 😁

dustypilot22 said:Man, what can you do?

It sounds like you’d only ever step up for someone you actually have a real connection with...

😁 😁 😁

but honestly, 😁 😁

go2slep said:See, that's just it—I helped some Americans get taken in by some folks at a shelter, acting like they didn't even have a right to be there

So, what you're saying is I basically just moved over a bit so they'd actually have a place to sit?

Arthur Cooper5 said:The article claims that some American drivers stepped up to help Mikulic
I’d honestly just pose a question to everyone here: would you actually step up to help an American in need?

Honestly, if I found out we were talking about an American, and their life wasn't literally on the line, I probably wouldn't lift a finger... and even if things were getting dangerous, but I happened to know them and knew exactly what kind of shady stuff they'd been up to over the years, I still wouldn't be helping them out.

Such a killer movie, and honestly, it’s the first one where I don't find Kim Basinger totally grating

driftingpilot54 said:Aladdin - Creators of Wonders ($16) and Aladdin - King of Thieves ($25) are available over at Algorithm's site. I really hope you're happy with how everything turned out on my end. If there's anything else you need, just let me know

That’s actually not quite what I was hunting for... the original Aladdin doesn't have any extra subtitles or anything, it's just called "Aladdin"... those are the sequels, and honestly, I'm really just looking for the DVD release anyway.. but hey, no big deal.. thanks for all the work, driftingpilot54

Adam Wright56 said:You guys are tripping... what do you mean Mulan and Aladdin?

That stuff has been sitting in video rental stores forever... unless maybe you're specifically talking about a DVD release.

And I'm pretty sure Mulan is out on DVD too, since I've got a decent DivX copy with American subtitles.

Aladdin? Maybe you're thinking of the sequel ("Aladdin and the King of Thieves")... as far as I know, the original Aladdin hasn't even dropped here yet, especially not on DVD.

Mulan came out years ago.

driftingpilot54 said:I haven't heard anything concrete regarding Aladdin yet, but I'll definitely look into it and let you know what I find.

sounds good 👍
