Here's the argument I found and lost and found: In which movie is the villain actually right? Humans in Avatar. Basically, we're told that the Earth is devastated, the world economy is on the brink of collapse, and the only thing keeping human civilization afloat is the flow of precious minerals fro...

Time Bandits (TV Show)

Show was cancelled.

It was not strong.

It may be because they went really out of their way to not be offensive.

I made a similar argument a couple decades ago.... vegetarians are people without any real problems, so they invent them.

Bet.

There's tons of restaurants around here that do this program. I've been leaving miles on the table because I didn't know about that program.

Thanks, good idea.

So just accumulating more miles means old miles wont expire?

I have a bunch of frequent flier miles on American, setting to expire in March. Is there a website out there where you can search flights by how many miles they would cost? I don't know where I want to go, and want to shop ideas for the most exotic thing possible, within my miles budget.

Definite chance she knew and is now lying. That I don't think at all. I'm just saying the dude may have mis-represented it to the potential rapists. I've met women for whom this is a kink.

I saw, then lost, someone's argument about how that guy in the pic (forgetting his name) actually warned the blue people time and again, before he did anything. And how he was the only one on the base to treat the guy in the wheelchair as a human with value, when he first arrived.

Opinions are beginning to shift as to who were the villains of the movie:

Hey, I get all my information from the news. If they aren't telling the truth, I don't know what to

anyway

15k people were given a ticket to anywhere, and chose Springfield, Ohio? And a county population doesn't count. If they all moved into a town, it's a town.

I'm not sure if it was the first time I realized that not "all life is precious," and it is, in fact, quite cheap in some places. And not everyone is "good." Nor particularly intelligent. Like, "Hey, I'm a big shot Haitian cop, I'll shoot this US Navy medic/interpreter in fr...

There is a law in Ohio that if you hit a deer on the road, you are allowed to report it and keep it for butchering, if you choose. Hunting season/hunting license doesn't apply in that case. Fucking deer committed suicide so you can get some meat. I've never personally heard of smaller roadkill being...
