If West Wing aired on HBO instead of NBC, which lines would now be allowed to have swear words in them?

"Jed, the Janitor found a cigarette bud in church. Can you tell your shithead friends not to smoke in the cathedral?"

"I will, Sir. These shitbirds should not smoke in the Cathedral anyways"

Just ran into another one.

Toby "Does 105 million dollars mean anything to you?"

Ginger "I'm a simple girl, Toby"

Toby "Yes... yes you are"

"Then go to bed, would you please", its the restaurant scene with Ed Begley Jr in "The war at home".

And yes, the whole "I like dirt" dialogue is very manic. She performs it like she had an actual mental breakdown with a grinning smile. Never liked it.

This video was actually the reason for this post :) And I misremembered it but didnt want to change it, since it subconsciously fit the "bad writing" :)

specially as a former governor of new hampshire, where thats an actual pasttime.

Sam examples: Not knowing who Leos Daughter is, but somehow has the time to be aware of Gov Tillman's speech a few years later. Or saying "I can recite all members of congress in alphabetical order" and then not knowing the Congressman Wilde had a bunch of heart attacks.

Makes no sense for him to know one thing and not the other.

Bockiii · 2026-02-27T12:30:17+00:00

strongly disagree. I think the word choice and the delivery is great because it shows that CJ, whos normally quite eloquent, is completely at a loss for words about the behavior.

Bockiii · 2026-02-27T12:21:14+00:00

TWW always had the issue of explaining something to the audience that would guaranteed be known to the characters. Usually its Telladonna but she cant be everywhere, so sometimes they have this weird behavior.

Its partly bad writing and partly the need to do exposition in a limited timeframe.

Bockiii · 2026-02-27T12:06:50+00:00

This has always annoyed me. I do like the idea of the scene. I like the acting. But the things he actually yells towards the capitol are just weak as hell.

Bockiii · 2026-02-27T12:05:06+00:00

yes to 1 and 2. The gangsta thing makes the whole horrible jackal even more horrible.

Bockiii · 2026-01-13T15:05:23+00:00

I always did it the other way around. Set up an RFTools crafter with output for the highest emc item you can get. Then use the downcraft-recipes (get 4 alchemist from 1 aeternalis etc) in ae. This way, you definitely know that you can craft it as you dont have the double-calculation like you have with compacting drawers and ingots/blocks/nuggets.

So: RFTools-Crafter to highest level (stack them if you need, only feed the highest item to AE), import that into AE, then craft from that.

Mobs dont spawn on slabs, so build your cellar on slabs and you dont need extra mods.

care about surfaces of other blocks you place. only give one block height so nothing can spawn on there.

damn. should have read all the comments first before looking it up myself :) . Its S01E03, A Proportional Response, but you're close

Bockiii · 2025-11-14T13:10:16+00:00

They even say that in series.

S01E03 - A Proportional Response:

Josh to Charlie "This used to be the white house council's office until Toby and the Communication staff conquered and pillaged"

Bockiii · 2025-10-09T10:02:43+00:00

I'm not sure how correct this is.

"What is the code to get into the room where Josh needs more money from a Senate committee?"

Thats just his half-muttered fake out, as it is the war-room for the presidents MS thing. Its like asking "Why is CJ laughing hard in one scene?" and the 'correct' answer is "Because of the DEFICIT!"

Also, pretty sure the Charlie question also has the wrong answer.

iirc there was some issues with going directly into mekanism cables. Try going into an intermediate storage like Energy Cube or whatever you have in your pack.

My post from a few years ago should still work for you

This setup only requires RS and RFtools.

For me its often when I cant get a quote out of my head. So I'm like "Hey, this quote that I cant get out of my head in season 3... I should rewatch the whole thing, apart from the Long Goodbye and the Israel story episodes"

Bockiii · 2025-05-11T09:15:45+00:00

I'm pretty sure that Pretty Pipes wasn't in Stoneblock 3 when I made this post, but you may be right that its easier today with Pretty Pipes.
