Really, broadcasting one’s innate stupidity, in this case on climate change, seems pointless by now. But, it’s not like the conspiracists are in the majority. They lack critical thinking, and hate education anyway, but they are fewer in number than they themselves believe. The moron in this...

Tough question. Who wants to only have one movie? Thought about it since this thread started, and I guess I’ll settle for Shawshank Redemption. I’ve already watched it many times, and enjoy it every time. So, it should be safe for a few years anyway, lol. Importantly, it will always leave me...

His stark “everything dark before me/everything golden with me” is one of those simplistic absurdities that baffles me in its ability to….actually work! Lol. The creation of an alternate reality/history, and its continued sustainability, is something to behold, IMHO. On one hand, it’s just “tell...
