"Hey Jorge! Let's burn this mother****er to the ground!"
"You know, Hector, I would but I got this thing with my brother an' his wife..."
"Well, how much of it CAN you burn down, man?"
"Let's just see how the afternoon goes, yeah?"

Just in case anyone forgot that the Gestapo are still murdering black activists.

Singapore 'smiley-face' activist in one-man protest charged with unlawful assembly

In case anyone wasn't already aware that Singapore is essentially a totalitarian one party state, despite being a very successful and wealthy capitalist country. Disneyland with a death penalty as someone called it. And also no free speech.

And France can suck the big one as well.

At least there defintely won't be any more terrorist attacks in France going forward now that they put the Muslims in their place.

I'll support any neo-Nazi terrorists who target Purdue and the Sacklers for ravaging their trailer park. **** the justice system.

OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma pleads guilty in criminal case

The deal includes $8.3 billion in penalties and forfeitures, but the company is on the hook for a direct payment to the federal government of only a fraction of that, $225 million. It would pay the smaller amount as long as it executes a settlement moving through federal bankruptcy court with state and local governments and other entities suing it over the toll of the opioid epidemic.

Great show but I don’t think I plagiarized it. Wouldn’t be ashamed if I did either.

Do you remember what episode?

OccultHawk 11-24-2020 12:01 PM

Speaking of TV I’ve been slowly going through season one of Hannibal. Kind of boring frankly but just enough to keep me on for 8-9 episodes.

I wish there was more classic slash and dash and less goth. Plus needs some titties.

3/5

I think you said you watched it. Opinion?

I think they're just paying the $225 million with the $8.3 billion as sort of a suspended sentence.

It's decent and Hannibal is played well but the artiness tries way too hard.

There’s so many stories like. Petty crime doesn’t pay but big ass crime sure do.

The story you posted. The golden gun. Second season.

And I agree with Bats on the Hannibal series. Boring and tries too hard to be or feel smart. Books/movies are so much better. Mads Mikkelson does a good Hannibal and I may even prefer this Will Graham over Edward Norton & Man Hunter's Will Graham. Nothing beats Anthony Hopkins though. He just is the character.

During the whole George Floyd protests how did "Black Lives Spatter" not become either a BLM or a right wing slogan?

Trollheart 11-24-2020 06:26 PM

There were hats that went on sale with "Black Lives Don't Matter" on them...

I wanna get into the merch biz

People will buy any old dumb **** to feel original

The Batlord 11-24-2020 10:23 PM

Considering you're not really a fan of anything you'd probably have the instincts of a washed up Hollywood producer.

jwb 11-24-2020 10:37 PM

I dunno if that's supposed to be a good thing or not tbh

But I am a fan of plenty of things

Nothing I would ever stoop to advertising on a t shirt though

England puts him on their currency

I remember in high school the trend was these dopeboy tees they sold at ghetto corner stores that had pictures of cartoons characters like bugs bunny etc counting money, holding guns, cooking crack etc

Would be funny if they made one with Darwin holding a stack of british money with his image on it

jwb 11-24-2020 10:51 PM

Matter of fact maybe I found my first merch idea

Adding some humor might help make it more apparent.
