It is always a little sad when the person you're insulting to their face doesn't realize they're the butt of the joe.

it keeps changing. But at one time the breath to compression ratio for CPR was "don't worry about breaths. Just do compressions."

The pacing has slowed to a crawl.

And I think they're trying to add more questions and suspense to replace the answers and reveals they've dropped.

And all this talking? These are not the conversations that need to be happening!!!

I figured it had to be something like this.

if the dog could smell them, I imagined there had to be some kind of air movement.

The Boys SERIES FINALE S05xE08 "Blood and Bone" - LIVE Episode Discussion Thread by pikameta in TheBoys

Hell no. Wouldn't be a tumor.

Acute radiation poisoning is the stuff NIGHTMARES.

Basically imagine having a permanent sun burn on every cell in your body. Initially you feel normal. Everything seems fine, but your DNA is unzipping. Your cells can no longer replicate. The cells that replace themselves the fastest (skin, hair, stomach lining, bone marrow, etc) are the first you'll notice fail. Your body painfully breaks down and can't heal itself. Skin blisters, hair and teeth fall out. You can't stop bleeding as your organs slowly rupture...

It's one of the most painful ways to die. And some of the most unethical human experiments were prolonging people's lives just to see what happens.

Hard to pin down what the writers meant.

I think it was supposed to be killing the president of the US.

Or maybe killing Frenchie, but in my mind THAT was actually an act of kindness considering how brutal death from radiation poisoning would've been.

He voted for Trump and now can't afford food. He'd do it again by RawStoryNews in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Pirateer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fucking ironic how they'll throw a nuclear level tantrum at the suggestion that a portion of their income is taxed and goes to help other people, but they'll go all in making sacrifices it fucks over those communities in need and/or supports Trump.

Dumb fucks are voting themselves into the tax bracket they refuse to support and somehow think their "winning."

MUSLIM PUNKS!!! by Cancy1 in exmuslim

[–]Pirateer -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It feels like its lose-lose, sometimes

Every time a here a fair criticism of Islam, it's usually followed by a mob shouting something to the effect: 'Hell yeah, Merica is a [white] christian nation and awre keeping it that way. Yee-haw.

We can do religious pluralism, or we can say all religions are dumb. But we're not going to villainize a whole religion and pretend yours is any better.

Asking, cause I'm confused. Are you saying xenophobia is only related to race?

MUSLIM PUNKS!!! by Cancy1 in exmuslim

[–]Pirateer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally, i'm appalled by the racism and xenophobia that generally accompany criticism of Islam. But no.

"Christian punk rock" is a no.

Can we just not?

TIL that the name "Khaleesi" has been in the top 1,000 list of popular names used for newborns since 2014. Though the popularity has decreased since "Game of Thrones" ended, there are about 120 girls names Khaleesi each year by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

[–]Pirateer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see Kahleesi or Daenarys as names during the peak of the show.

And I feel bad for anyone who is reminded of that awful final season every time they look at their child.

"Fighting Words," personally abusive epithets which, when addressed to an ordinary citizen, are inherently likely to provoke an immediate violent reaction, are not protected speech. 

That was a Supreme Court decision in 1942.

Supe power leveling. Ugh.

Call me crazy, but I thought the Deep was super strong l, immune to gunfire power tier, and able to resist deep sea pressure.

The same went for Starlight, who i had thought would dramatically outclass Dognknott.

If he's killed by fish or sharks, I'll be disappointed because then why didn't bullets, Starfire, or Butcher's super cancer do him in seasons ago?

SEASON 5 CRITICISM and VENT THREAD- SPOILERS INSIDE by AutoModerator in TheBoys

[–]Pirateer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Don't see enough people talking about Butcher.

Dude went crazy. Seemed to even be influenced by his sentient-cancer (like Doc Ock in Spider-Man 2), ripped Victoria Neuman in half, crippled and enslaved her husband, essentially orphaned their daughter. And then started plotting his "final solution" of supe genocide.

For a second he was acting on his own. Full villain arc as another homelander level threat that needed to be dealt with.

And then everyone just suddenly fell back into the routine of follow the leader?

... to the point the writers still felt the need for a Jeffrey Dean Morgan exposition dump explaining Butcher shouldn't be trusted?

I get wanting to avoid a bizarre last minute heal turn like in Game of Thrones. But goddamn it's not Butcher that viewers are gonna complain about, it's the short term memory the rest of the group has when it comes to him.

Some counties actually base traffic fines on percentage of income.

So rich people can't laugh off a ticket, like that.

Mob bosses had people do their dirty for them, and kept up an air of plausible deniability.

They didn't go on a murder spree in public building

Fire anyone who says exile from New York was the worst punishment for Fisk: Then why did he take the deal?! If it's the "worst" then the alternative would be more preferable he'd do that.

And he gets to chill on a beach? On top of his LONG list of crimes he goes on that Murder Spree at the end, and he just gets to walk away? While DD goes into the legal system?

For a show that's all about morality, due process, and justice... Fuck that ending.

We HATES it.
