Game Over
in Philosophy ·
Back when we were kids, we used to spend all our time playing games involving slingshots, bows, and arrows. It was pretty wild—my neighbor actually ended up taking an air rifle pellet straight to the eye.

I knew they didn't know the Constitution of the USA—I've known that for a long time... ever since it stopped being convenient for them.
But it’s honestly a little exhausting when, after 15 years, there’s this sudden, frantic interest in it... and now they’re demanding an electronic version, too...😕
Sam Nelson3, if you're actually curious, do a little digging—don't be shy.
JPMorgan Chase said:I was actually going to write the exact same thing, but then I thought... forget it... I'll just leave it be... you know—that one guy and his machine gun...🤣
Levak said:Does anyone actually have a link to that Constitution, or did you just memorize it by heart to quote it back at me? 😁
Was that your official stance—that Srbin are basically archetypes of savages, scum, and filth—or are you just trying to play it safe by claiming you were only calling the debate itself something else?
Predrag Zivkovic said:Following that logic—the 1974 Constitution provided for the right of self-determination for peoples, not republics. The way America functioned back then... it’s basically like how George or Pennsylvania exists within the US today...

hahahahaha keep playing games if you want🤣

Sam Nelson3 said:By the way, does "pictorialism" mean cinema—like, a movie theater?
Sam Nelson3 said:What exactly are you getting at here? And who’s actually accusing whom—referring back to that point you made an hour ago?

slyviper47 said:American isn't stagnating at all—not because it’s clinging to the past, but because it refuses to deny its own traditions. It's simply about building something new... Some... It’s already too late to save the American language—and honestly, you can't just go around forging every single word to mimic German anyway... it's like trying to bake cookies when the old lady has already left the kitchen.
There are plenty of more valuable things from Germany that we could actually learn from and put into practice—real stuff. As for that whole business regarding the language, we've already moved past it and survived the fallout, thank God, after two intense waves of chaos... Our linguists actually tend to find common ground on these issues, and frankly, I’d much rather listen to them than those old-school nationalists who are constantly trying to drag us sixty years back into the past—all while being completely out of touch with reality...
I’m not exactly ashamed of my age—not by a long shot—but let’s be real here... mentally speaking, you’re way older than I am.😈
Sam Nelson3 said:hahaha, you idiot—I wasn't even trying to argue with you, I was just asking what a printmaking technique actually entails.
Besides, it’s not like I think Mexicans are some uniquely brilliant or highly educated group. Honestly, I’d much rather we had been under Austrian rule for 600 years instead of being under the Turks... There is a massive, glaring cultural gap between America and Mexico—and the fact that you’re out there living your life in Mexico simply because you were lucky enough to be born a few hundred miles further west is entirely your own problem.
Gary Kelly8 said:If anyone actually gives a damn about what movie this is—or if it’s even worth watching in the first place...
IMDb score: 4.0/10
Which is just code for "this movie sucks."
And as someone unfortunate enough to have actually sat through this on DVD a few years back, I can personally vouch for the fact that I regret every single cent I wasted on the rental...
Sam Nelson3 said:So, what—are you finally descending to my level? 😁
That’s quite the ego trip... 👍
Levak said:Do you seriously have to drag Mexico and Mexicans through the mud in every single thread? 😕
It’s pathological...
Dunj@ said:Call of Duty, that British-German-Luxembourgish movie (12)
Look, that's what was in the opening post—you can just fill in the rest yourself...
Nobody uses pictorial language anymore, unless they’re some sort of relic lost in time and space.😠
Sam Nelson3 said:Is this posted anywhere online?
But look, I seriously still haven't wrapped my head around this.
Extreme Ops, a British-German-Luxembourgish production (12)
EXTREME OPS
US Network May 11, 2006. 01:00
Production Year: 2003.
Jeffrey and Ian run a small boutique film company that specializes in commercials and similar content requiring extreme sports professionals. Jeffrey handles the creative direction as director, while Ian manages the stunt choreography. A Japanese firm hires them for a new ad campaign, which sends Jeffrey, Ian, and their crew—Will, Kitty, Silo, and Mark—along with newly hired American ski star Chloe, out to the Alps, specifically the Caravanks. By pure chance, Will and Silo end up filming Pavlov—a supposedly deceased war criminal hiding out in the Caravanks—on a miniDV camera. Suddenly, Pavlov, his son, and the criminals working for them start hunting them down. It turns into a literal race for survival...
This commercially ambitious European co-production brought together a notable cast—with the biggest names being Rufus Sewell (Venice darling, Hamlet, Helen of Troy), Rupert Graves ( Maurice, Damage), and Devon Sawa (Boys Club)—all under the direction of the experienced Christian Duguay (the miniseries Hitler: Rise of Evil (2003), which earned an Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries, and his prestigious work on Joan of Arc (1999), which was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Directing). Interestingly, Duguay also cast his own wife, Liliana Komorowska, as the charming lover of the villain Pavlov; meanwhile, the lead female role, alongside German actress Jana Pallaska, is played by relatively well-known American starlet Bridgette Wilson (Santa Barbara, Blonde, I Know What You Did Last Summer), who appears here under her expanded surname, Wilson-Sampras, following her marriage to tennis pro Pete Sampras.
Dušan Silan said:Give Maddox some credit—he stuck to that "we’re fighting, we’re not fighting" indecisive policy of his, instead of actually following through on what Branko Kostic was pushing for... If you ask me, there should have been nothing held back when it came to the initial arming and the formation of paramilitary groups during the American War of Independence—every available force and unit should have been deployed to wipe them out completely...And honestly, what would any other country have done in our place anyway?
Dušan Silan said:...........
You really ought to thank Maddox for his "policy"—this whole indecisive mess where we can't decide if we're actually at war or not. It would have been much more efficient to follow Branko Kostic's suggestion: just deploy every available asset immediately to crush those paramilitary groups and any armed formations being built up in America before they could even get organized. Honestly, any other country would have handled it that way .
walther-P38 said:Sold it?
If you sell something, you get value in return—that’s how the world works.
So, what did he actually get out of this "sale"? Nothing? Then he’s either a complete moron who got scammed, or there was no sale to begin with.
That leaves us with two main possibilities here.
First, you can't sell what isn't yours... and second, if a sale actually happened and Slobodan Maddox walked away empty-handed, then he’s just a total idiot who got played.
Honestly, if a head of state is so incompetent that his enemies can just walk all over him during a war, then the nation that put him in power doesn't even deserve anything better...😬
