i dont like Stannis because the Red Lady has him by the short and curlies. if he were to cast that bitch aside id back him.
she's also bad at reading her fires. i dont trust her
Maybe she just gets contradictory visions.
no, you can tell pretty clearly in the books that she's misreading them something hardcore
>One of the most accomplished Red Priests of all time >Claims her powers are much stronger at the wall >When she looks into her fires all she can see is Jon >Has a vision of Bloodraven and Bran for the first time ever >Bloodraven already seems to have an interest in Jon throughout the series Spoiler In my opinion, Bloodraven is fucking with Melly's visions to get to Jon.

I honestly don't see how she can lose given the state the Seven Kingdoms are in and considering she has Chuck Norr...I mean Barristan Selmy of her side. Spoiler Show Dany is fucked tho. Even if Aegon and the Greyjoys have been cut

Yeah lol. I met a guy on Youtube comments today that believed in the Illuminati and said that they caused Sandy Hook to take away our guns and that they made up global warming to distract us.

Let's get one thing straight.
Terrorism, hate crime and related ideologies are not a function of economic deprivation, social exclusion or mental illness.
Not trying to argue, but do you know of a link that debunks these myths?
Oh God, I'm going to have to trawl through my database of links at 4 in the morning.
I'll just give you an NBER paper on the issue:
The paper investigates whether there is a causal link between poverty or low education and participation in politically motivated violence and terrorist activities. After presenting a discussion of theoretical issues, we review evidence on the determinants of hate crimes. This literature finds that the occurrence of hate crimes is largely independent of economic conditions. Next we analyze data on support for attacks against Israeli targets from public opinion polls conducted in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. These polls indicate that support for violent attacks does not decrease among those with higher education and higher living standards. The core contribution of the paper is a statistical analysis of the determinants of participation in Hezbollah militant activities in Lebanon. The evidence we have assembled suggests that having a living standard above the poverty line or a secondary school or higher education is positively associated with participation in Hezbollah. We also find that Israeli Jewish settlers who attacked Palestinians in the West Bank in the early 1980s were overwhelmingly from high-paying occupations. The conclusion speculates on why economic conditions and education are largely unrelated to participation in, and support for, terrorism.
I'll find more if you want, but I really can't be bothered unless you're going to have an existential crisis if I don't.
Lol that's fine. I just find these statistics on the Muslim community pretty fascinating.

Sly Instinct posted one that debunks all of them.
I should have been following this thread more closely. I'll check it out.

Regardless of whether the artists were "provoking" Muslims, I think most of us should agree that the gunmen choosing to respond to the provoking with murder is obviously the greater problem here.

The only one I really like is Deadshot. The rest look like cosplayers.
well i mean they are a bunch of rando one off villains. theyre not exactly gonna have polished, "iconic" looks
I get that this is supposed to be a grittier, more realistic universe, but specifically Katana and El Diablo look pretty weak and it really drags down the look of the rest of them. I'm sure it will look better in the final product but none of these DC character reveals have sold me on this universe yet.
there's more to a movie than costume departments. dont let this affect your perception.
Man of Steel did, mostly.

Guinness is the only beer I've ever enjoyed.
For cheaper beers, Budweiser, Natty Light, and Keystone are decent. Pretty much all the rest can burn in hell.
If you want something that tastes really good, has higher alcohol percentage and is cheap, you could go with twisted tea or apple ale, but those are obviously frowned upon because of muh maskulinity.
Good lord, if you have to drink cheap, drink Lionshead. Don't subject the poor kid to the horrors of Natty or Keyestone.
Keystone was a reach but I wanted to have a list of at least three to recommend before saying the rest are terrible. Natty tastes like water to me though. I've never had Lionshead before but I'll check it out.

It was great. My only complaints would be that I don't think this movie should had to set up half the movies in phase 3 and I thought they went a little overboard with the humor in this one, but maybe that was just due to the atmosphere of the Thursday night premiere crowd. I'd like to see it again and see if it's still a problem. I loved everything else so overall I'd probably rate it a 8/10.
I had the opposite impression--there wasn't more or less humor than in the first Avengers movie, and a lot of the jokes fell flat for me this time.
Like I said it might have just been the atmosphere. I went to one of the first showings at a really big theater. They laughed at pretty much anything that could be somewhat humorous. I want to see it again and see if it feels the same. The only jokes that fell flat for me were in the third act when the stakes were supposed to be really high and they kept cracking jokes and having playful banter. I was like "ok Joss, it's time to be serious now".

Personally, I'm hoping for a Biden/Obama ticket.
That would be hilarious.

I thought they went a little overboard with the humor in this one
Oh god, you serious?
More so than Avengers 1 I mean. Not as bad as Thor the Dark World or anything.

For the last few months I've been eating a high protein high carb low fat diet. Well some of you may know that fat is the main macro involved in hormone production. Low fat=low test.
mhm. You started using test booster didn't you?
