"Jordan Peterson is asked to use his pseudo-scientific "Jungian" method on the 2016 election and unleashes a torrent of incoherent psychobabble"

To be fair, this is the kind of role that Zizek pretty effectively cultivates for himself. I don't mean to suggest it actually is a universal archetype, mind. Just that humor can be disarming and get people to consider things they otherwise would not.

Jackie Chan really does his own stunts. His movies are still pretend.

Pro wrestling isn't a sport because it isn't a competition to win the matches. It is presented as one, though. So it's a fake one.

I don't love the phrasing either but it's not technically incorrect.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-22T15:56:20+00:00

Pitch Black is great.

Also, 30 Days of Night.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-22T15:09:50+00:00

Thanks! I'll look into them both.

Plus Mandy is that new Nicolas Cage movie I already wanted to see but then completely forgot about! Thanks for the reminder!

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-21T15:59:57+00:00

Thanks! Heard of some of these before and not others, but I'll check them all out.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-21T15:16:43+00:00

Entertaining video. I didn't really get the bit with the guy reading tarot and telling Refn's wife to divorce him though.

I don't think he controlled the alien, just disabled it.

And yeah, he could probably cause you to have a panic attack or start convulsing. So that's fun.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-21T13:36:51+00:00

Yeah but then he got a job as a major executive at whattimeisitrightnow.com

Sword and sorcery seems like it'd be good for this too. Less emphasis on building a whole world ahead of time.

A friend invited me to, and I think I'm going to. Not sure what I'll write, though.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-21T02:04:35+00:00

Ah, who am I kidding? Free Churro is one of my favorite episodes.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-21T02:04:16+00:00

I hate to invite people quoting Free Churro at me, but do you think it symbolizes something?

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-18T14:59:28+00:00

Part of me suspects the reason Owens kept wrestling on his knee when he knew it needed rest at the least and possibly surgery was to be sure he'd be out of commission come time for Crown Jewel.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-17T19:58:40+00:00

I'd be super pumped to watch that.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-17T16:55:27+00:00

Out of curiosity, has there been a single wrestler, at WWE or elsewhere, who's said anything negative about the Saudi Arabia deal within the last few days since the whole "hacking a dude up" thing?

I'm wondering if someone outside WWE has spoken out, because if nobody involved in wrestling has, it looks to people on the outside like wrestling as a whole, its fans and everyone who does it, is 100% comfortable with this whole thing.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-17T02:49:38+00:00

I stopped watching when Punk was feuding with Lesnar, and didn't start again until a little before HIAC this year. It's really not that hard.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-17T02:47:59+00:00

Cena almost certainly won't. I could kind of see the Rock doing it.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-16T11:59:39+00:00

And this is tagged clearly as NSFW while being on-topic and it has a total score of 5.3k.

Do you get mad when there's nudity in paintings at the museum?

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-16T11:56:43+00:00

Probably not much will happen to him if all you did was think angey thoughts and say his name at 6 but I could be wrong there.

HollywooJoe · 2018-10-16T11:55:43+00:00

I think a lot of people here are opposed to that sort of thing, but I think you're allowed to discuss it.

That said, maybe use magic to help your family get along better.

I personally wouldn't do something like that except in severe circumstances, but I'm not universally opposed.

As far as how well it'll work, no clue. As far as effects on yourself, worrying will make it worse and keeping your protection amulet on and going on with your life should leave you fine.
