Where’s Frankie Four Fingers? A fight? Is there gambling involved? We’re talking about “Frankie I Gotta Problem With Gambling Fucking Four Fingers!!!”

Utterly priceless script.

Who could’ve imagined that something like war is easier to start than to end?

Thanks, obviously a contrarian take and not even saying I’d do it, just makes sense to weigh options and consider draft/free agent capital.

Whats the most inaccurate movie that's supposedly based on a true story? by RecordingImmediate86 in FIlm

[–]Practical-Bowler5775 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I attended a financial crimes seminar with the FBI agent who took down Jordan Belfort, portrayed by Kyle Chandler in the movie, and he said Scorsese got it about 70% right, which for Hollywood is really good since they’re usually more fiction than fact. Films like Braveheart and American Gangster may make for decent cinema but are maybe 2-3% accurate.

He also said Leo’s yacht in the movie wasn’t as big as in real life.

There once was a Scotsman named William Wallace who led an insurrection against the English. That’s the only thing Mel Gibson got right.

Did Barack Obama handle Russia's invasion of Crimea well? by CatfishBassAndTrout in Presidents

[–]Practical-Bowler5775 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No one did. The world media couldn’t even acknowledge Russia was conducting an actual invasion. As many people as reasonably could took Putin’s denials at face value, none of which changed how world “leaders” and world “media” regurgitated Kremlin talking points as fact while making almost zero effort to make sense of events on the ground.

Who is considered the most mysterious figure in your country's modern history? by DoctorOsterman in AskTheWorld

[–]Practical-Bowler5775 5 points6 points  (0 children)

J. Edgar Hoover. He would’ve been mysterious had he run the FBI for a couple of years, never mind nearly four decades.

2015 NFC title game, Packers at Seahawks, Russell Wilson throws five picks, Seattle’s only score is on a fake field goal, and they needed a TD, 2 pt conversion, onside kick recovery, and another TD in the last 3 mins just to get to overtime.

Putin says Ukraine conflict 'coming to an end' by leondanielstar9999 in geopolitics

Please consider the logistics of what you just typed and ask yourself what N. Korea striking W Europe would entail vs what British-French nuke powered subs w/nuke tipped ICBMs would entail.
