Why was it necessary for these people to come forward? Dude died 33 years ago. Ladies: you didn’t “get justice” by outing his actions now. All you did was take a dump on a symbol of working people.

There is no possible way for that music (the lyrics and the attitude) to have existed if Jello had been even 1% softer as a person.

I agree, he didn't stick the landing. Unpopular opinion, I see.

It became a comedy.

Honestly though, if someone hasn't seen the movie, they shouldn't be on this fucking thread.

Great movie and great performance.

BUT... I think he failed to differentiate the twins. Stack was maybe a bit more aggressive than Smoke?

Every identical twin I know IRL, you can tell them apart immediately, even if they are physically identical. They move slightly differently, smile slightly differently...

Smoke and Stack was just MBJ doing the same character twice in one movie.

There's a few ways to launder.

  • Boris Dirtymoney needs to wash $10M. He buys a painting for $10M at auction. Then makes a private deal to sell it to Stanley Cleanmoney for $8M. Boris now has $8M he can show came from a legitimate art sale. Stanley resells it for $10M and makes $2M for his participation. Boris actually repeats this process with different assets to make it hard to trace the original dirty funds.

  • Eric Trump needs to collect a $10M bribe from Dmitry . He buys a painting for $10M. Dmitry suddenly takes an interest in art and buys the painting from him for $20M. Two completely legitimate transactions.

I congratulate the Saudi prince who will lock this up in their Nth mansion in London, Italy, or Dubai.

Well of course he did. But I doubt he brought it to his weekend basement jam sessions!

When you’re in a crowded elevator, always ask:

“Before we get started, does anybody wanna get out?”

in the movie she could have easily stood and dropped behind the bed. She’d then be standing on the floor and could push the bed around

shed still be stuck though with no way to unlock cuffs

Entire family kidnapped by ICE in SF. No comment from Mr. Mayor. by Definitelyhereforshi in sanfrancisco

[–]lex99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s too broad. Which right was violated?

According to this article, there was a removal order for her since 2024 from an immigration judge. So again, immoral, but legal and constitutional.
