I think his name is Bob not Gus but I could be wrong.
And Bob CW has done many great seasons of TV Arrow S1 & 2, Flash S1, The 100, Smallville, Supernatural, some seasons of TVD & TO, just because their more likely than not going to fuck it up isn't a certainty it's just the likely outcome.

I have incredibly low expectations after the way the Arrowverse shows have been messed up.

Those "you're trying to turn girls/boys into lesbians/gays" thing always makes me laugh because it's like no fuck wits their trying to tell gay and lesbian men and women who may feel uneasy expressing who they truly are that it's ok, or their just representing them which is fair because it is a sizeable portion of society, with some "SJW" issues I can get some of the backlash, like race stuff can have a sort of valid criticism for demonising all white or outside ethnicities, or even for just female heavy stuff to do the same towards men sometimes in ways that a male heavy show cannot get away with, but I don't think I have ever seen straight shaming on a TV show, even when it may be LGBT leaning. The thing I find funny though most of all is how these fuckers don't seem to notice a pattern as racism tends to go hand in hand with sexism & homophobia, all 3 are due to outright ignorance they have no other connection to one another, like surely if you are homophobic you shouldn't be sexist, otherwise why do you hate same sex couples so much, if you believe women or men are inferior to the other why isn't the idea of pairing up with one of your own and leaving the "inferior sex" to pair off with themselves attractive to you? I mean in that regard maybe sexism can kind of go with racism but not if you are homophobic as well, just doesn't make sense, then again im not an idiot so I don't get how they "think".
The best we can hope for is the movies and TV shows that they complain about are successful 'cause it shows how wrong they are.  |

Sadly, they will never admit they were wrong and claim they never said anything like that in the first place.

Which is weird because his party is supposed to be the party of personal responsibility.

Another problem with both our politicians is they are often far from responsible and I know you have a lot of Donald Trump's associates getting in trouble at the moment for doing illegal things but do your politicians also abuse people's tax dollars and spend them on going to fancy restaurants where their meals cost hundreds of dollars and staying at expensive hotels? We have had a few exposed for doing that here and I think they should be fired on the spot for it 'cause it is not like they don't know what they are doing and they are only remorseful when they are caught.  |

I think every country at every point in human history has politicians who abuse tax payer dollars. My dad never believed it when politicians or celebrities made tearful public apologies. he believed they weren't sorry for what they did but sorry they got caught.
I think he was onto something there.

I think he was onto something there. Especially when the wrong doing is reoccurring/constant and still happening up to being discovered, because everyone can make a mistake, but when you show a pattern of bad behaviour it's not a mistake, you're just a cunt.
I found it hilarious when we had the MP's expenses scandal years back, the shit people were claiming was hilarious, one guy was claiming expenses as an MP to get the hedge around his helicopter pad trimmed, one MP claimed for porn her husband ordered, and another claimed for 2 new toilet seats in 18 months, there were hundreds but they were the ones that I recall for obvious reasons.

I don't have a strong connection to the character, mostly because I haven't read anything with her. Yet. So my feelings are like this.  |

I think he was onto something there. A train of thought I heard once, that makes sense; which is that, because of the scrutiny public officials face, many people who would make good leaders - intelligent, reasonable, honest people - shy away, out of concern something in their past might embarrass them. This basically leaves those who essentially have no shame running for office... |

I recall an episode of QI where they were talking about the problem with elected politics in that the people who think they should be in charge tend to be for lack of a better word cunts...I think they said politicians but we all know what that really means, and the best form of appointing government was used centuries ago in they held lotteries, so no one had an agenda beyond simply serving their term in office and doing their best because their weren't career politicians fucking people over to get a head or setting up deals for themselves to profit off the position after or making side deals to cover their arses for doing so, so they job was simply about being the best for the position you could be.
Might be an interesting idea to try out again one of these days, but then with global politics more important also we may have fucked ourselves into needing this snakes in office just to keep the other fuckers at bay.

Might be an interesting idea to try out again one of these days, but then with global politics more important also we may have fucked ourselves into needing this snakes in office just to keep the other fuckers at bay. That is an interesting idea. It kind of plays towards another concept that often comes up in discussions about getting the people of a particular nation more engaged in their current events; which is some form of mandatory civil service. That too has intrigued me, but I'm also ambivalent about the idea. For one thing, I'm not keen on mandatory anything; and the first thing that comes to my mind, and typically others too, would be that service taking the form of military service, which with respect to all those who choose to serve, I would not on board with it being mandatory; which I know it is in some countries (I believe Gal Gadot served in the Israeli military for a period as part of a civil obligation to serve). But, if what has always piqued my curiosity is the other potential areas of service outside of the military that this could be fulfilled; like serving in some capacity as a public official. This would give people some level of insight into how their government works and also help address some of the gaps in local government where positions go unfilled, because no chooses to run for say, County Clerk or some other mid-profile position. You speak the truth about the dynamic of global politics and as we see, not everyone is cut out to be a world leader. I suppose though it would only be sensible if such a lottery or draft were a little more nuance than anyone who can fog a mirror has equal crack at all the same positions. Arguably there could be criteria for certain qualifications that might make a person more (or less) eligible for certain positions; especially at the higher levels of government. |

Debbie deleted her old account after getting abused on pm by some homophobic dumbcunt a few weeks ago. There is a thread about it back on the 4th page and she’s left this forum again for now because she is upset over what happened on her Elsa Frozen thread but she wanted me to tell you lot she isn't gone and is having a few days off and will brb later in the week. |
