Please help settle an argument between me and my wife:
I say it’s weird she dresses Mr Whiskers and Fluffykins in different outfits every day, and wheels them around town in a stroller
She says it's more weird that I insisted on giving those names to our kids.
these new horror movies are hitting because young folks are scared of different things.
home invasions don’t work because no one owns a home. slasher movies are unrealistic when everyone has ring cameras and life360.
liminal spaces and being forced to date a bad guy? horrific
@JamesCostopoul1@TadEdge@lionel_trolling left/right is more nuanced than is suggested. It’s not just about whether you should be able to say racial slurs or ban abortion. It’s about corporate capital vs the 90% of the populace that isn’t in the in group. Almost every outlet you mention works in defense of capitalism
@JoeWhit30367397@esjesjesj I’m not sure that’s a genuine apology so in revenge I’m going to tell you that Arthur is the one who successfully pulls the sword from the stone
@benjianity@Berni_3@RealPostFolder I’m off to bed but will bid you adieu with my favorite Machiavelli maxim:
“Quoting my words without understanding them will make you look like a posturing and vacuous edgelord”
@benjianity@Berni_3@RealPostFolder Nice quote but complete irrelevant in context.
Being smart on some occasions and fierce on others does not equate do regarding other people as subhuman
@benjianity@Berni_3@RealPostFolder I read the part where he wrote “A prince should make himself feared in such a way that, if he does not gain love, he at any rate avoids hatred.”
Did you?
@SRFielding72@fesshole No doubt — this was 30 years ago so I imagine we racked up quite a bill. (We were in the uk and my friend was dating a girl in France, while I had a good friend in Connecticut)
@SRFielding72@fesshole At a crowded bar (30y ago) my friend spotted a guy had dropped his phone, picked it up & tapped his arm. Guy told him to fuck off.
Guy eventually realized his mistake, called the phone and we gave it back
In the interim we had internationally called everyone we could think of
@ItsAndyRyan I saw Austin Powers: the Spy Who Shagged Me
It was OK. Perfectly entertaining
But I don’t get why some people were going nuts for it.
If you want to see a great film about the life of a secret agent, have a look at Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
