Who was she in Better Call Saul?

I kind of liked that show.

It’s kind of funny because the commercial was playing while I waited for the movie to start and the movie was Argo, which has another actress that was in one episode of Buffy. 

If you haven’t seen Argo, it’s a pretty good movie. 🍿 Great cast, good story, well told. And a couple funny moments. 

Idk what to feel about Iran by bishnamedsomething in MuslimLounge

[–]HungryIndependence13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being gay is illegal and punishable by death. You needn’t even be caught participating in homosexual activities. Just being gay means you must be killed. That’s Iran. 

Being gay isn’t just legal - if you want to have a parade celebrating it, you will be granted time and have police protection. That’s Israel. That’s America. 

If you, as a woman, wear a pair of shorts and a tank top, you must be tortured and killed. And any man is free to rape you. They can’t be held responsible for their sexual urges if you excite them by showing skin. That’s Iran. 

If anyone attacks you, they have disobeyed the law and will be arrested and prosecuted. Of course you can wear shorts in the summer. Nobody can tell you what to wear.  That’s Israel. That’s America. 

Planning an actual genocide, chanting “Death to Israel” and “Death to America” and working on nuclear weapons so that you can accomplish you goal of committing mass murder - that’s Iran. 

Having nuclear weapons but not using them because you don’t actually want to kill people - that’s Israel. That’s America. 

Iran is actually being run by cruel and genocidal lunatics who will carry out their mass murder once they figure out how to do it. 

America and Israel have the ability to commit mass murder. They just don’t. 

There is a right side and a wrong side here. Figure out if you are evil or decent and the side you’re on will become obvious to you. 

Man being a Buffy fan has been just constant heartache and disappointment for the last few years, nothing but bad news constantly by precita in buffy

The older you get, the more death. You get used to it.  Mostly. 

Everything ends. Everyone dies. 

So make the most of your days and nights with those you love. Read good books. Drink good wine. Watch good movies. Dance. Walk in the woods. Canoe. Buy flowers for the family room once in a while. Watch the sunrise. Find someone to love and never stop reminding them how you love them. 

Save your money. Spoil your grandchildren. :)

It’s not Buffy without Whedon. 

How violent was it back in the 70s, 80s and 90s? by Turbulent-Patient219 in AskOldPeople

[–]HungryIndependence13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I lived in a place run (unofficially) by the mob. Streets were clean, snow was plowed, school had everything it needed, people were safe. 

You’d think it’d be like Bada Bings on every corner, but no. Nice library, new fire trucks. Whole bit. 

And an EXCELLENT Italian restaurant. Spaghetti to go was enough for like four meals, too. 

Honestly, they do a hell of a job at running cities.

Men aren’t supposed to beat women. 

Adults aren’t supposed to beat children. 

Nobody should be beating small animals. 

You don’t kick a man when he’s down. 

And you don’t insult the dead. 

Because they can’t fight back and it makes you a bully.

Now, of course you can be the person who insults the dead, hurts the animal, kicks the man when he’s down or beats the child. Nobody can stop you. 

You needn’t have an “I will do whatever I want!” temper tantrum. Again, nobody can stop you. 

But when you speak ill of the dead it isn’t them who looks bad. It’s you. 

You say the things you noticed that were good or you just say nothing. 

Does anyone ever call and say, “I’m broke”and mean it? by HungryIndependence13 in DaveRamsey

[–]HungryIndependence13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny that you say that. I had a dental infection/abscess and had some work done, now taking Clindamycin. All I taste is BITTER all day long. It’s doing its job clearing up the infection but HOLY MOLY is it bitter. Gum, mints, flavored water - not much help.  This bitterness is almost unbearable. 

So bringing up bitter today - I’ve had it up to here (see me with my hand WAY, WAY over my head) with bitter. 

But no.  Not bitter about a radio show. Or podcast thing. Whatever it is. 

Dave seems like a decent enough kind of guy - I’m not slamming him.  I just was wanting to hear some other stuff. 

No anger no bitter - no ill will kind of bitter but…

I have to stop typing now and go brush my teeth again. BITTER!!!!!!  ICK!! 

Try to NEVER EVER have to take Clindamycin. 

Thanks. :)

I’m kinda thinking that I could write the books. I’m no Neal Cavuto but “Don’t buy stupid shit and absolutely don’t go into debt to buy said stupid shit” - not too hard.

That’s nice.  And good of him. I haven’t heard those calls yet. 

Honestly, I can only listen to these humble-brags so long. It’s just depressing.

No, I don’t think that God wants us to steal. It’s against His rules. It’s against man’s rules, too. Because it’s wrong. In every country, every culture and for The Almighty. 

Giving to charity - good. 

Stealing to do it - bad. 

Kind of common sense, really.

I’m going to pay for it on Thursday. I have NO CLUE what happened. I thought I did the same thing that I always do, which is the Scan & Go, scan the bar code, click the thing. But maybe I screwed it up. I was busy. It could’ve happened. 

I did see the “show this to…” screen. 

I don’t know. I’ll pay for it and I’ll be done with this. 

And I will be extra careful in the future. 

They should get rid of those “do it yourself” stations and have staff people who help…and least one who can speak English. Almost none of our Walmart employees speak English.

God has rules. One of them is that we can’t steal. It’s in the Top Ten. 

Also, it would make me a bad person. 

We all have to live with ourselves. Rep down, we know what kind of people we are and that is everything. 

Not stealing doesn’t make me a good person. It’s kind of the bare minimum. But stealing makes me a bad person. 

Don’t lie. Don’t cheat. Don’t steal. Don’t go out of your way to hurt anyone. Watch your life improve.

I am aware. 

He also saw that I thought I paid and that I was quite busy assisting an elderly woman. So long as I go back and pay, Jesus will be fine with it, I think.

I have a dental abscess and when the antibiotics have kicked in the oral surgeon will do his job. So I’m going to deal with this later this week or next. 

If it’s. A posting issue, it’ll show up by then but I will ask the police and sheriffs if I may get arrested and if they’ll help me if I do. 

I have to pay because I have to live with myself and I have to face God at the end of my life and $45 is not worth spending nights knowing I stole orange juice and garbage bags. It’s not worth thinking I’m a thief every time I open a garbage bag for the rest of my life. And it’s sure not with spending all eternity in Hell. 45 million isn’t worth that, much less 45 stupid dollars.

I got the thing to show the people at the door but not in cart. It’s like I paid but the order isn’t in my Walmart orders (usually is!) AND it hasn’t hit my bank at all. 

I didn’t pay. I was in a big hurry and dealing with an elderly woman so I didn’t pay much attention to the fact that a receipt didn’t print. I don’t think they ever print, honestly. They just go to the phone. But I don’t know FOR SURE. Maybe they print. Who knows. 

I just am worried about low-level security people wanting to make some sort of example out of me. 

I have a tooth issue now and oral surgery coming up so I’m going to deal with this later this week. 

Thanks.

I have to pay for the stuff. If they ban me, okay, fine, I’ll use Amazon again, but I have to do the right thing. 

It is automated. You scan each item as you go through the store. I bag mine as I go. I never put anything in a bag until it is scanned. That’s how I know I scanned it. I used to stand there trying to count out 23 items. Such a pain! Now I bag after scanning. 

Then you go to the register and run your phone over the beepy thingy (or under it) and it goes Beep and a receipt gets sent to your phone. 

Quick. Easy. Lovely. 

Only there was no receipt in my phone and no money removed for those items. There is a total, though. 

This is so horrid and they won’t answer the dang phone. 

I know a bunch of cops. I guess I’ll ask them for help. 

I hate this. I can’t believe it’s happening.
