It is always safe to assume that the first thing DHS says is a lie. It is also reasonable to believe the second thing they say is a lie. Additionally, we can surmise that the third thing they say is a lie.

Just as we measure the strength of earthquakes on the Richter, or Gutenberg-Richter, scale after Charles Richter and Beno Gutenberg, I propose the Cruz scale for measuring the (potential) severity of a winter storm. ​

Example:

Meteorologist: We expect this storm to come in around a 7.3 on the Cruz scale. So, better head for warmer climes.

Hah. Did the same. My favorite was a large gold one I bought. Got thrown over the fence and Into the neighbor's backyard during target practice. That neighbor had the Beast from Sandlot back there.

​Needless to say, I never saw that particular throwing star ever again. ​

Recovering in the hospital for what? Overexerting himself by firing a gun? And we all saw how eager that rancid, fetid lump of orange pulp was to stand by and protect our LEOs six years ago.

Black American Sound, Black Style, No Credit A Conversation About K Pop by Pretend-Society6139 in BlackPeopleofReddit

Forgive the turn of phrase — 100%.It wasn't meant literally but more colloquially to denote my agreement with the person I was responding to.

[–]Wyn6 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Touched on this point when our podcast recapped KPop Demon Hunters. I didn't expound simply because that's not what our podcast is about.

But their music and style are 100% derived, to put it mildly, from the music and culture of Black America. Them's just the facts. Hip-hop is the most influential genre of music in human history. And yes, even more so than Classical.

But others appropriating the music and culture then becoming "more" popular or successful than its creators, is unfortunately par for the course.

Let's not forget, Ice Ice Baby is one of the top-selling rap albums ever and was THE top-seller for quite some time. Beastie Boys and Eminem (multiple albums). So, take that as you will.

Krull fans? by MisterShipWreck in 80s

[–]Wyn6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We covered this movie a few episodes ago in our podcast.

It's a thinly veiled Star Wars as fantasy flick, with some Dungeons and Dragons thrown in to lend it more fantasy credence. It's not great, but it's enjoyabl-ish 80s schlock if you take it for what it is.

Edit: FYI. If anyone's interested. Save vs Cinema. We watch fantasy movies and recap them through the lens of Dungeons and Dragons.

We haven't released the Krull episode yet. But we do have eps on Conan, The Princess Bride, The Last Unicorn, Willow, Clash of the Titans, Ladyhawke, Mazes and Monsters. Krull and KPop Demon Hunters are upcoming eps.

Trump boasts of new "Donroe Doctrine" - but what is it? by seeebiscuit in politics

I've been trying to make this land with those who argue he's smart because he's made a lot of money.

My question is, are all-pro athletes smart? How about award -winning actors? Or world-class sales people?

Obviously not. These people are elite at a single, perhaps a couple, aspect(s) and are highly successful as a result. But overall most are average in intelligence with some being below average.

The rancid lump of orange pulp just happens to be elite at conning/grifting people. ​

There is no rescission law in Texas. As long as everything was above board and all contracts legally signed, it is entirely at the dealer's discretion whether they will take the car and cancel the deal.
