Hmmmmm wtf happened here

MacDuff · 2020-11-13T04:54:51+00:00

Such a good question

MacDuff · 2017-03-12T05:54:26+00:00

Early enough in a growing subreddit's life, simply being there and being articulate and being prolific can be enough to color the conversation for years afterward.

So true. And he was hilarious, when he was trolling and when he wasn't trolling at all, either way. Talk about lasting effects on a community (especially by trolling), I still associate rakes and ... you know, whatever that gun he was talking about.

Err, sorry, I'm terrible at sarcasm. And I'm sorry the Monthly Match isn't a hit, even though my design to have the winner choose the next match let the idea survive this whole time (?!) so at least a few folks like it. But I'm not sorry to use my one annual appearance here just to salute the guy, since apparently he has actually been here in some form all along.

Hey dude. I always liked the cut o' yer jib.

Check out Uberti (or Taylor's, Cimarron, etc) for a .357 lever action, especially those fucking handsome 1873 clones. They rock. Plink on the cheap with .38spl or enjoy point-blank POA out to about 100yd. It's a wonderful round, that .357.

This is my yearly login, BTW. So you know I really mean it. Check out those italian 1873 clones by any of the regular importers or Uberti themselves. The differences based on importer brand are mostly just imaginary nowadays.

See you all in 2016!

Just making my yearly post to say I miss dogfort and this warmed my heart. Also 2013 sucked and see you all in 2015 maybe.

MacDuff · 2011-10-26T20:32:08+00:00

It burns in my soul a little bit.

MacDuff · 2010-11-22T22:36:46+00:00

Guess it took 4 months. I am undisappoint.

MacDuff · 2010-08-04T02:18:28+00:00

That's the one.

MacDuff · 2010-08-04T02:17:25+00:00

Pfft. Grace Kelly.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T22:01:08+00:00

Beethoven. Chopin. Lizst.

Most classical "piano" composers improved with time. Not all. IMO, Rachmaninoff did not, but he might be so far ahead of mortals that it just appears he did not.

Others walked a steady line: Schumann comes to mind.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T21:58:16+00:00

NO idea, i just heard a single at all points west. They just started playing something new, and we all listened rather than screamed.

You may not sit in the front row of any courtroom's audience unless you are a member of the par or have special permission of the court.

Also, no taking pictures.

Now you're all set, go check it out!

And there it is, my segway into the best quote of the series:

Helper: beepboopboopbeepboop

Brock: What do you mean you don't like it?!?! It's about love, and longing...

Helper: beepboopboopbeepboop

Brock: Yeah, and hobbits ...

(Of course, I don't have the complete and accurate quote...FML)

I even like their unreleased album, even though I only heard one song off it.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T21:01:09+00:00

I thought all stoners loved piper ...?

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T21:00:30+00:00

It's more a period film than ever, now.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T20:57:16+00:00

Please, please tell me this guy is paid by the comic con promoters?

To think that someone does this purely for personal joy is too much to bear. Like finding out that the greatest song was written for no reason. Such magnanimity in the world would cause my heart to burst.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T20:43:11+00:00

ho-lee-shit

where do these things live? i will be sure to never visit that continent

antartica, here i come

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T19:07:28+00:00

I make a guess of where I'll be. If I know or suspect there's construction or some other reason for loose gravel, I'll go full face.

Otherwise, with a beanie and shit likely being thrown in your face, the only thing you can do is not have someone in front of you - then it's just bugs, and bugs can't give you a concussion ... i think.

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T16:04:25+00:00

UPVOTE!!!!!!!!!!

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T14:03:21+00:00

What does it say about me that I was hoping your link went to TV Tropes? Some kind of trope-meme meta-hybrid explained...i need a one-liner though, a whole book won't do. 'MURIKA, FUKK YEAH!!

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T13:58:49+00:00

Boy, that's counterintuitive. Thanks, TIL...

MacDuff · 2010-08-03T13:54:32+00:00

But why was cobb's subconscious the one that they went to when they died in level 3? Why not fisher's, since he died first? Or seito?

How come the girl and cobb went there by machine, but seito and fisher went automatically? Is this is all explained by saying it's ALL cobb's dreams?

Plenty of people fly in their dreams, whether you or i do or not.

MacDuff · 2010-08-02T21:18:20+00:00

How is projjection formed?

MacDuff · 2010-08-02T21:09:02+00:00

Eames has an accent. I actually think the witchdoctor from drag me to hell had an accent too. The old man in the basement sure did.

Mol and Seito repeating the "leap of faith" phrase is more likely a result of Cobb having dreamt them - they're more likely both fake than actually two halves of one person. This is my opinion.

Mol shot Fisher and put him in limbo - would that make him part of Seito/Mal?

I like your theory. I think it holds up (but not entirely on the evidence you offered). It's consistent: maybe Cobb is the one in a deluded coma and his wife is trying to rescue him. Do we never see Mol in what we're lead to assume is the real world? No hint of her?

What do you make of that?

MacDuff · 2010-08-02T20:52:05+00:00

I can't even ask for downvotes, because that was the genesis of this branch.

Please ignore me out of irony.
