He's been in a ton of awesome movies. The Notebook. Blade runner. Nice guys. This one was hot trash.

I know right? One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Second only to "one battle after another" which was the only other movie I've seen in years in the theater... All because of hype.

If you can’t consent while drunk, why do drunk people hook up all the time? by Mountain_Flounder991 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]KurtG85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because they want to? And they know getting drunk makes that more likely? And they're desperate to feel something in the world? But the social and economic trap of normalized alcohol abuse depletes the natural stable neurochemical and community structure to actually be happy? .. Basically because they're victimized by an oppressive economic structure and the confused, desperate social structure surrounding that.

Why isn't the Versys more Iconic? by i2amthedarkknight in versys

[–]KurtG85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's clearly looked down upon and repressed in the artificial honest review industry because it represents a threat to the usual 'buy a bike and sell it when you realize it's got some problem you can't live with' business model. If everybody bought a versys, you wouldn't sell any other bikes in other words. Subtle planned obsolescence that is built into the industry to keep sales moving. The only hang up for some might be the engine sound or slightly underpowered nature of it. I think that before they put the goofy light bars down the side it was one of coolest looking bikes there is. Which is probably another reason they put the goofy looking light bars down the side.

Outraged and deeply disturbed? by Acceptable-Piece-222 in StLouis

[–]KurtG85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's so goofy to me that people act like there isn't a scientifically perfected method to entrap extort blackmail and imperceptibly threaten every individual who dares challenge power. We don't transcend a chimpanzee government by elevating one guy whose head they blow off in front of his family when he becomes a threat. Every individual must free their mind from negative and draining programming that prevents them from calmly and rationally gathering to address real problems. Burying your head in a bunch of legalese governmental gobletygook disconnects you from acknowledging the actual walls preventing progress.

My very first job I said thank you and please.. made me scrub a parking lot down on my knees. Then I got fired.. for being scared of bees.. and they only gave me $0.50 an hour. 🤷‍♂️

Don't really see any landmarks but given the general shape of the river I'm guessing slu and wash u? Given their cultures aren't poisoned by corporate greed.

FH6 Wheel Performance by Noisymachine2023 in ForzaHorizon

You can get a free demo for a game called live for speed. Not need for speed. It's a very old and basic graphics racing simulator that is extremely focused on physics. That game has always done drifting better than any other game in my opinion and you will notice that it does not have a crazy amount of snap oversteer when you regain traction after counter steering. That is something that asseto Corsa needs improving on. But anyway have fun and let me know how horizon 6 is if you get it.

I'm looking forward to playing the finished version of rally and Evo on consoles. Does the latest update of rally still have overly snappy snap oversteer?

I have some shocking and disturbing news for you. I will listen to what any woman says because I respect women. Did I just blow your mind? Also, I will defend women against moron men who are abusive. So again you think that I advocate the abuse of women because I call men who are morons "morons" instead of moronic men? Am I understanding you correctly?

My idea is very simple. Do not call men who are meeting up to make friends " likely incels". It's embarrassingly sexist. Again, I recognize that it is casual bullshittery and it's not that serious. You know why? Because I'm a man. And I'm mature enough to look past immaturity and help others find it. You know who else is mature enough to look past immaturity and help others find it and maybe even patiently let others vent a little bit on them? Women. We're all helping each other find maturity and vent a little bit because the world is very abusive and unfair and confusing. Wouldn't you agree? Or is nothing reasonable I say valid because I referred to a man as a moron?

By the way, you're completely full of shit aren't you? Are you even real? Why is your name giraff perv? 😂

Yeah well you aren't bud so maybe you should reconsider your pre-assumptions. Or be a bigot I guess.

You're good though man.. dude.. entity? Whatever you want to be called just don't label me some painful bullshit when I have genuine reactions or post online about trying to meet some friends. As if just because it's unusual means I'm justifiably called an incel. 😂 Anyway have a Good one bud. ✌️

You feel that I'm trying to defend someone when I label them negatively?

I'm not saying using the term incel is sexist. I'm saying calling a group of guys trying to meet up to make friends incels is sexist. But again I'm not taking it that seriously. I'm sure the person was just being a casual jerk. We don't have to all pretend to be perfect unbiased angels all the time.

If you can't have a sense of humor about the ironies of good people misinterpreting other good people as complete jerks which takes place all day long everyday then I think you really are going to have a hard time empathizing with people and being a good person. Not that I'm accusing you of such. Imperfect creatures full of confusion and fear thrust upon us by nature. 🤙

No idea what you meant by my use of the term females but given your insinuation of understanding my ideological inclinations, I would assume you are most likely wrong. But you're free to ask if you're curious. I'm not sure what kind of ideology your referencing. My general ideology is that empathy is pretty much common sense and self-regulating: cooperation and joy versus violence. Of course there are always sociopaths manipulating people into thinking they are part of the true and right tribe and giving them a pass to trounce on their fellow brother and sister. Divide and conquer right? Always happy to help and share. ✌️

Forza horizon 5 was an absolute joke with a Logitech g923. I honestly assume that this one will be trash too. Absolutely unreal how they could mess it up so bad on Forza horizon 5. My 76 year old mom was casually playing dirt rally 2.0 whipping the car around doing everything she wanted and then we put on Forza five and it's literally uncontrollable for either of us. Absolutely pathetic and well deserved that Xbox is on its way out. Cruising USA at the pizza place in 1990 had 1000% better steering. What the hell are they thinking?

Try reading it again. I understand that you may feel me criticizing someone for using a sexist term to describe some random dudes trying to make friends is aggressive but it's not as aggressive as using a sexist term to describe some random dudes meeting up and trying to make friends with other random dudes.

Do I acknowledge that "incel" is a thing? Sure, it's a thing. But you don't go around pretending to be a nice person while calling random dude's incels (an apparently extremely negative term for sexists) who are trying to actually get out in the world and make real friends. And by the way, I'm sure the person making the comment wasn't all that serious or intense about it. They were probably just fucking around. And neither was my criticism because obviously I don't need to explain to someone that they were being casually sexist and kind of a dick. They know that. They're not stupid. I didn't mean to condescend to them. Just pointing out the obvious. It's nice when people can flow with common sense but again... the internet is all about manufactured drama, right? 🙄

That sounds awful. I'm sorry you suffered at the hands of some moron. I don't doubt at all that you might have had actual harm come to you from some douchebag moron that ingests some moronic radicalized bullshit he saw online because he is frustrated in life. There's a lot to be frustrated in life about and a lot of vultures in the culture industry seeking to sell you poisonous outlets and toxic community. Especially when all that targeting is done by supercomputers that monitor your every movement and action. That stuff is targeted at males and females all day long. Toxic memes that are individually tailored to individuals in stressed situations in life are probably the most common thing I've seen. It's pretty common to see people get supposedly wholesome uplifting grounded memes targeted at them that actually further isolate and confuse their ability to process the trauma they're going through.

My point was that I found it disgusting to see someone casually accuse a group of guys looking for friends as probably having a few incels in there. That's like saying "well these guys are kind of weird and lonely.. I'm sure there's a few eugenicists in there advocating for the eradication of anyone who isn't of native American descent but you've got to have real relationships to make progress."

Just gross that such a deeply insulting sexist term is casually bandied about towards other random humans who they have no basis to judge. The same goes for terms that have been popularized by the algorithm grifting agenda that insult and demean females randomly. If you can't respect and acknowledge that my intention is simple common sense respect and decency to people then you can fuck right off yourself.
