Wednesday Night ONT DUMP!

I've been out of town for a couple of days (In-laws in town from Canada, we went to Colonial Williamsburg), so I don't have much time to write this. Last week I cleared out the browser tabs, tonight it's the pictures folder. Everytime I see something that might work for an ONT, on Twitter, Imgur, Tumblr or wherever, I save it to a folder. Well, that folder's full, so tonight I'm going to empty it. How does that strike everyone?

12 College Demands Respect for Communism

A purportedly "Christian" college, Samford University, has refused to recognize a chapter of Young Americans for Freedom (YAF). Why? Because YAF's founding document, the Sharon Statement, denounces communism. Obviously, on the modern college campus, this is #ThoughtCrime of the highest order.

#UnpopularOpinions

1. Lunch should be eaten just after 11am

2. Shoes should have pockets

3. Portland is the capital of Oregon

4. Most non-fiction books should be articles, and most non-fiction articles should be tweets.

5. In general, smoke-filled rooms, backroom deals, and party machines produce better practical results than direct democracy

6. Anchovies and olives are wonderful to eat

7. Siracha is a terrible "hot" sauce.

8. Lincoln was one of our worst presidents

9. Huey Lewis and the News is radically underrated. Imma let you finish, but 'I Want a New Drug' has one of the best guitar solos of all time. Of all time! (The 4:46 version of the song, not the radio 3:32 version)

10. The Scottish Enlightenment is more important than the French Enlightenment

11. Wal-Mart deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for doing more than anyone else to eliminate poverty

12. The South isn't nearly as racist or backward as most people think, and places like New York and California are way more so than anybody cares to admit.

13. Self-styled progressives usually hold regressive positions.

14. People skills are underrated

15. Not only is the Electoral College a good thing, but senators should still be chosen by the state legislature, and the voting age should be 21

16. SRV played Hendrix better than Hendrix.

17. Led Zeppelin was the best rock band ever

18. Teaching suffers more from too much compassion than too little; and students, if pressed, will admit that's true

19. MOOCs or their replacement will threaten at least one major established college or university over the next twenty years.

20. Most education and credentialing operates as a form of virtue signaling.

48 Yes, real milk appears yellow(y) in photos and videos.

Not if the photographer and/or video crew has calibrated their camera/post-production color correctly. There's this thing called "white balance," among other adjustments.

Probably true. Stevie Ray recorded the definitive versions of several Hendrix songs. Hendrix was the better songwriter though.

I was blessed enough to see Stevie Ray a number of times in college before he hit it big. Stupid me never bothered to try and talk with him. Friends who knew him or met him describe him as a little bit shy and very polite -- it was always "yes, ma'am" and "yes, sir" with him.

In other words could trump have added enough votes +1 in all of the sates the FAB won save those three and still lost the popular vote? Powerful illustration of why we need the EC.

California gubmint strikes again!! You can't get free plastic bags at the market anymore, you *have* to buy thicker ones, or paper bags.

And the supermarkets don't trust the customers to add on the cost I guess, so right now if you go up to a self-checkout lane in California? NO BAGS available there, you have to have either brought your own or go without. I *do* like that most stores have a big ol' sign right there, explaining why the bags have disappeared.

Well, a billion is a thousand million, right? So if one million dollar bills makes a 3 foot stack, then a thousand such stacks would reach to 3000 feet, neglecting compression. Empire State is 1454 feet, including its antenna structure. So, not quite half a billion.

What if they went full retard -- they're kind of already there with all these Hillary excuses-- but what if they started identifying themselves as the party of the freaks and mentally disabled? Would that bring more people to their message? Would people sympathize even more and be drawn to them?

254 A million dollars in $100 bills makes a nice little pile. It would fit in a suitcase. $100M fills a standard pallet, It would come up about chest high. Google varies visualizations. One billion is thus 10 pallets.

One trillion dollars is thus 10 thousand pallets. Here, you compare that to a football field, and a 747 and all that.

Fun fact: If you laid out the national debt in $1 bills, end to end, you would reach Uranus.

277 Charger girls are probably OK, but the San Diego State cheerleading squad is sadly unrepresentative of the um, "student body" at SDSU (Still Drunk, Still Uneducated).


At least as of last season, don't see them much unless I go to a basketball game.


Historically State has had a ridiculously high % of extremely hawt distaff students. Just going to watch open registration was a high school boys' thing to do back in the day.


The little "incident" (WTFF?) at the game on Sunday is actually a perfect accompaniment to the team's on- and off-field bumbling. In re this amazing performance by the "security" guy:

I think the SJW wet dream is a society where people have no concept of
gender. You wear whatever clothes you want to wear, have sex with
whoever you want, however you want and sometimes, for reasons
unexplainable, when certain people have sex, one of them has a baby.


That's the way things used to work. Then someone went and screwed things up by inventing civilization.

Back in the day - the year it cam out - me and a bunch of college friends to see it.

2 guys out of 8 or 10 of us thought that he was. Reason, based on how easily Replicants kill humans, the fact that Deckard survived Zhora's & Leon's very physical attacks meant that he had something going for him...

I felt that if he was, it cheapened the whole thing. Rachel's picture of her mother & Leon's photo's vs. the photos on Decked piano. Replicant life is innately worth of Freedom & Dignity not because it is "naturally human" but because it is close enough. i.e. on the scale of doll to person, replicant has past the 1/2 way point. We do not given human rights to dolls, but we don't take them away from say, persons that need glasses or hearing aids or pacemakers or artificial limbs ...

Time travelers went back in time and informed the UN that Great Britain wouldn't be in the EU for all that long, so it was safe to let them keep their permanent Security Council seat.

362 otho, yup.

It's actually not directed by Ridley, but being produced by him. The actual director is someone named Denis Villeneuve.

But I admit after Prometheus, I'm not going near the thing until I *know* it's not a complete waste of money and time.


Posted by: qdpsteve at December 22, 2016 12:36 AM


The lazy bastard can't even be bothered to direct it. I got a nasty suspicion he's given the nod to some hack, like he did the scripter on Prometheus. He's still a great director, but the dude has been coasting since Bladerunner in '82.

370 junior, good question. I think one of the things that made the original great, was that *Phillip K. Dick was hired to adapt his own story.*

Today? You know the script for BR 2049 has been written by people trying to "approximate Dick's voice." That could go either very well or very disastrously, depending on their interpretations (among other things) of his collection works and apparent visions.

374 Of my favorite stories about Prince Archie Bunker Philip was when he met Cate Blanchett in 2008 at some shindig thing where celebrities meet the royals. He asked her how to hook up his DVD player.

Back in the old days, actors and performers were considered very low class by the nobility. You may remember from Downton Abbey where some considered it scandalous for Lord Grantham to allow some famous singer to stay upstairs. She should have been put down in with the servants.

Well, Prince Philip is from that era, really. He thought Cate would know how to hook up a DVD player because she's was from the "film industry". I mean, that's what they do, isn't it, he thought.

And one time, when he and the Queen were in Australia, they met with some Aboriginal leaders. He asked one if they still "chucked spears at one another?"

387 One thing I've read about Phillip K. Dick, is that he personally had serious issues with both schizophrenia and paranoia.

He was thankfully just functional enough to keep himself out of state mental hospitals, but I've heard that if you met him in person, you could tell he was a bit "touched in the head." And he was smart and talented enough to use his issues (which he was aware of, and I believe sought treatment for) to fuel ideas his writing.

Yeah, a comparison to Lucas is not unjustified. Ridley Scott needs a massive kick in the bum to that might get him to pull his finger out and make something truly great again. TBH, I'd feel a hell of a lot more confident about the BR sequel if it was given to Fincher. That dude has been kicking Scott's ass for decades.

390 /Rant On

Ever since I had to give up caffeine, I drink decaf coffee very infrequently, but don't mind as much decaf tea. There is one particular brand and one particular flavor of yogurt I buy for daily consumption, Dannon Coffee Yogurt. Of all the coffee/cappuccino yogurt brands I've tried, Dannon Coffee is the best. A container is my daily cup of coffee.

So I was out shopping and saw the store had them as the coffee yogurt seems to have a shorter shelf life. Not wanting to hunt later as the coffee yogurt can be elusive to hunt, I picked up 8 containers. I noticed new packaging. I also noticed the weight: 5.3 oz. That's just over 10% down from the current 6 oz. Prior to that, the 8 oz. waxed carton was reduced 25%. So a 36% reduction in container size in just over a decade or so. Talk about hidden inflation!

A 5.3 oz. container of yogurt? What's next? Dannon Coffee Yogurt Mini-Bites?

Bastards.

"So from the Dannon Family to yours, Happy Fucking New Year, Suckers!"

402 SMFH, that's a pretty amazing wipe-out video, but some of the older ones from Waimea Bay were "worse" - I mean, even larger waves - if I recall correctly.


There's a big wave competition (maybe the world championship?) held in Todos Santos, near Ensenada in Baja. And just west of San Clemente Island (oh, to get at the abalone surely infesting that place, which is a closed guvamint reservation) there is the Cortes Bank, which breaks occasionally - and only yuuuugely. A little surf film called "Step Into Liquid" from 2004, I think, ends with the then-top surfers rushing out to surf Cortes Bank.


Waves are measured from the back side, not the face, so sometimes it will seem the numbers are low-balled, when the surf is just 2-5 feet (the faces look much higher). And when you're in the water, even a 3-4 foot wave looks impressive from just in front of it.

The funny thing is when they keep trying to push inflation -- over and over and over and over -- until they've got overwhelming piles of stuff in the back room.....and then they mark it down to an un-inflated price and it sells out.


They've been trying to push $6.50 a 12 pack of cans of Coke lately -- but they sit on the shelves, so they go with "buy two get one free" and it sells, then they try to get back to $6.50 and nobody bites. They do $6.50 BOGO and it's popular, then they go to $6.50 and nobody bites. They've got so many stacked up, they just went to "Four for $11" and I bought 12 12-packs -- lots of luck having me buy one at $6.50 any time soon.



And it's like that for everything. My "strike price" for shredded cheese is $2.50 -- I see 'em on the pegs at $3.99 and I'm thinking, "who are they trying to fool?" They keep trying to cram top sirloin up to $8.99/lb -- what are they smoking? They want me to believe that $18.99 for a 12-pack of regular non-megabrewer beer is normal.....errr.....



We seem to have significant ability to overproduce, while pricing is all about betting on busted flushes. Admittedly, someone seems to be paying full price for this stuff -- but who?

Maybe he never had it, and just got lucky with the teams that put together Alien and Blade Runner? I think he might actually have it, but has been in "Oh.... fuck it. That'll do." mode since then/

429 cthulhu, what you're describing with your soda example is more an issue of marketing/pricing. They haven't shrunk the 12 oz. cans . . . yet (like they did a while ago with broth cans from 16 oz. to 14.5 oz.).

But what I'm seeing all over the place is the hidden inflation, where a product decreases in size with the price (temporarily) remaining the same. It is literally everywhere in the grocery store. Couple reduced size with eventual price increases and you have a stark hidden inflationary hit. That's why my lying eyes are why I don't believe the inflation numbers nor the eggspurts. The last 8 years the inflation numbers, like every other number put out by the finally out-going Administration, are based firmly and diligently in FantasyLand.

I hope Trump can explain the numbers in a simple way, to really explain the problem -- and the true numbers he's inheriting (which have been massaged all along by the fan cub media).

434 429 cthulhu, what you're describing with your soda example is more an issue of marketing/pricing. They haven't shrunk the 12 oz. cans . . . yet (like they did a while ago with broth cans from 16 oz. to 14.5 oz.).

But what I'm seeing all over the place is the hidden inflation, where a product decreases in size with the price (temporarily) remaining the same. It is literally everywhere in the grocery store. Couple reduced size with eventual price increases and you have a stark hidden inflationary hit. That's why my lying eyes are why I don't believe the inflation numbers nor the eggspurts. The last 8 years the inflation numbers, like every other number put out by the finally out-going Administration, are based firmly and diligently in FantasyLand.

I hope Trump can explain the numbers in a simple way, to really explain the problem -- and the true numbers he's inheriting (which have been massaged all along by the fan cub media).

The thing is, in a real market, both sides get to speak. If you drop your 1 pound bag to 15 ounces, the consumer might buy the other guy, or only buy your stuff when it's discounted more than 7%. All this shuffling of container sizes, prices, and special offers needs to be considered in that light.

435 >>>The perp was a Libyan agent who stayed in a Scottish prison until they released him on "compassionate" grounds due to terminal illness.

And still alive, right? Nothing suspicious here, move along, folks.

No. Al-Megrahi. He finally died a couple of years after he was freed. They had said that they let him go because he only had a month to live.

If there was any time to bomb Libya it was to bomb the Tripoli airport when Al Megrahi landed - which should have happened - but, of course, Barky was in on letting the scumbag loose - which was yet one more impeachable offense that Barky was allowed to just skate free on. They never said that Barky was involved, of course, but you can bet your bottom dollar that the Brits and the Scots wouldn't let the guy they jailed for Pan Am 103 go without asking Washington about it.

For what it's worth, I never bought the Libyan story on that bombing. That was utter bullshit, itself.

Makes sense. That was my second guess.

I friggin hate adobe. One of the worst companies on Earth - which is pretty impressive these days. I hate flash files and I despise pdfs. I think more people have problems with flashes than anything else ... and the stupid adobe player was such a rich target for hacking, too.

If I could I would make the world's largest virtual bonfire of flash files and pdfs ... and throw in everyone who helped establish those standards.
