Nothing is getting more extreme except the media and marketing.


I take exception with the cooking and dancing. Cooking now is going through a drive-through or ordering delivery for most people. Dancing isn't even that sophisticated to the general public.

Sorry, B-man. That's a little to homoerotic for my taste.

Or, at least, too homoerotic to be looking at where my coworkers might see. :altwink:

Men sure did get attacked by random animals back in the day.

I want one of those pizzas now. It looks ridiculously unhealthy so I must have it.

"What you do last weekend, man?"

"Ah you know, beat some cannibal rats to death with a weasel"

"Word."

"You?"

"Shot few pirates in the face, took a harpoon to the shoulder, the usual"

"Word"


Say what you will, pulp art and pulp magazines fucking PWN!

They actually had a science teacher at a christian school?


You may find it difficult to believe, but not all private Christian institutions are as extreme as the loudest ones on television.

My friend is a youth pastor at a church north of Austin that has a private school for grades K - 9. The 9th grade biology teacher is a Muslim woman, and she teaches evolution in the class. She does not teach intelligent design. She also is one of the students' favorite teachers.

I know that's anecdotal, but it's true as well.

Yeah, there were horses, and a man on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident.
