  @Kilemall said in Dirk Gently: @Stu said in Dirk Gently: Judging by the number of British detective shows I can surmise that everyone in the UK is either a detective, a murderer, or a soon to be victim. Blame Sherlock Holmes. Funny you mention Sherlock, because Dirk is pretty much his polar opposite! “What was the Sherlock Holmes principle? ‘Once you have discounted the impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.’ ” “I reject that entirely,” said Dirk sharply. “The impossible often has a kind of integrity to it which the merely improbable lacks. How often have you been presented with an apparently rational explanation of something that works in all respects other than one, which is that it is hopelessly improbable?.. The first idea merely supposes that there is something we don’t know about, and… there are enough of those. The second, however, runs contrary to something fundamental and human which we do know about. We should therefore be very suspicious of it and all its specious rationality.”

  @Gators1 said in Breaking Bad: @Whoofe said in Breaking Bad: @Wingmann said in Breaking Bad: A very worthy watch. Don’t let the slow first season fool you. gators already spoiled the ending. 5 seasons I wont have to watch now It’s actually a really great show, one of those with great writing and a great story that only comes around once in a while. Totally worth watching. watched most of season 1 so far.

I hope she gets eaten this season. Also, I wanna bang the chick that’s banging the junkie dude. What, you didn’t like that she lit up the hotel like a fucking Christmas tree in the middle of the zombiepocalyse even though they’ve almost been killed by others on several occasions? are zombies attracted to lit up hotels? No, but people who like to kill people are. wat about ppl who like to kill zombies? At some point you have to eat, so I assume you would be attracted to a hotel that mysteriously light up like an attention whore. do zombies need to eat? why cannot they eat each other? Apparently zombies don’t like rotting flesh. Go figure, such picky diets. What I don’t get is that they never finish. You see a hungry ass mob of them catch a person, then they only eat like 1/4 of them and leave the rest there. Which also makes you wonder why there are so many of them. If they eat a live person, why are there so many walking around almost fully intact? and what happens when they end up eating all the ppl and run out of ppl to eat?

  It’s entertaining enough. Not as good as The Expanse, not as bad as Killjoys.

  @oyaji said in Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: Meh. 2 stars at best. Maybe it will get better, but it has been what, a year since their last release fof an episode? If there is nothing else on, then yes, it is watchable. No Netflix? Set up an Ubuntu boot drive and hit all the virus-laden free sites, worry free… sounds like a Nigerian scam to me!

  @Kilemall said in Southcliffe: @Gators1 said in Southcliffe: @Kilemall said in Southcliffe: @Gators1 said in Southcliffe: @Lithu said in Southcliffe: WTF are you talking about? I watched some shit British show about a serial killer (Pakoon, GTFO now or quit your bitching). Dude killed a bunch of people, then they set up a scenario where he escapes and the cops fake his death. There is some reporter that grew up there and hates everyone and goes nuts on TV. Then the whole town shows up at some shitty hipster music concert and the fucking show ends. It was only 4 episodes and no fucking ending. I want my 4 hours back. You get bored, bang ugly chick/TV show, have regret, too bad. Stick your remote into timeholes it has no business being in, get STDs and surprise ugly babies. Er. TV shows. Ya. ??? Charlie been sharing his stash? Watch skanky shows, get skanky regret. Simple enough? It wasn’t supposed to be a skanky show. It was a netflix/filthyBrit original production and had a bunch of Lithu stars. It started fine, but then ended after four fucking shows with nothing resolved. It’s like if that psycho writer for Game of Thrones ended the series in the middle with that asshole kid still on the throne.

  This show is growing on me. It’s weird enough that you never know what’s going to happen and keeps you intrigued.

  @oyaji said in The Big Short: @Stu said in The Big Short: I wonder how many houses had to be foreclosed on to cover the shorts. That’s the thing: the shorts covered the derivative “bets” on house loans, and there were way more of those than there were houses. Way more. I forget how many more, but in 2008 I made a guess as to the hidden wealth that evaporated when the “game of musical chairs” ended and there weren’t enough “chairs” for everybody to “sit down”. Based on some number regarding leverage I had gleaned from what had been let slip in the news and on the Internet, I figured $250 trillion world-wide had disappeared. I figure a lot of that loss was just buried, and the true losses will never be admitted. I had several conversations with an engineering professor friend of mine (department head he was, actually) who was invested heavily in banks from the time I first made his acquaintance in 2003. Since I had been a contrarian since 2000 and had been advising family, friends, and anyone who would listen that the economy was headed for a cliff and to not only take on no new debt but to hasten to retire all existing debt as quickly as they were able, we had some rather animated arguments on the subject. Our last such exchange was so animated that I haven’t seen him since 2009. The “I told you so” part in particular didn’t go over very well with him. :-/ Where I fell flat was not knowing it was possible to short sell Wall Street via credit default swaps. Had I known there was such a thing, and had such been available in the thousands of dollars purchase range (instead of what - the millions or tens of millions range?), I would have bought in for as much as I could afford. I saw that shitstorm coming years early, but not from an insider’s perspective at all, quite the opposite in fact. Betting on the middle class over-extending its debt is like betting whether or not it will rain in Seattle this year. I should have put money into Visa or Mastercard stock a couple years ago and then in 5-10 years flip it to shorts for when people start to remember that credit cards aren’t free money.

  @Gators1 said in Tyrant: Thought the first season was pretty good and it’s an interesting premise, but now these people are starting to annoy me. The brother that’s now president is hopelessly naive espousing democratic idealism even though he supposedly grew up in that country and should know better. And I am kind of pissed off that they killed Emma and not his other daughter, who annoys the shit out of me. lulz Yes, he is annoying, more than the rest of his family.

  Kilemall said oyaji said Kilemall said Pakoon said It’s 500 years this year since another Bosch died btw. He was a real artist and painted skulls, flames & boobs regularly. Hmm they have some of his work at the Nelson, which led one of my brother’s in-laws to make a joke about the Hieronymus Bosch train set- the damned roll into the mouth of hell where the train gets mangled and the toy people on the train get run through all the torments he tended to paint about, and there was a screaming sound effect too.   Hell of a punchline to that story.  NSFP. Then use the “SPOILER” feature! Problem is, everyone is like you, they WILL hit that button just cause curiosity killed the Otter. The helluva punchline is   [spoiler]The guy apparently had an obsession with trains and death which was how he came up with that really strange quirky joke, and acted on both ultimately by committing suicide by train.[/spoiler]

  Whoofe said Kilemall said Whoofe said Lithu said Whoofe said i never saw season 1!!!   but then again… superhero… meh Not everything has to be documentaries.  If you like karate packed action, this is for you. just never been a fan of the superhero movies.  none of the x-men or iron man or avengers or fantastic four… none of em really interested me all that much.  nor transformers for that matter (kinda a superhero movie in a way) I guess I can only take so much special effects explosionsn destroying gotham city around the superhero vs the villain before I get bored Go Guardians of the Galaxy.  It’s a bright shiny high tech Firefly.  And one helluva raccoon. I thought that was sci-fi not superhero It’s a Marvel property and whenever they do the Big Showdown movie the Guardians will be mixed in with the cape crowd.
