Re: Hurtful Language You May Not know.
The place I grew up in doesn't have a large Jewish community. That probably explains why we see things differently here. In fact, I've only ever met two Jews in my life. Both were born in Israel. My Uncle was a professor and his research often took him to the Middle East. I once went on a hiking tri...

Re: Hurtful Language You May Not know.
One more from my own younger years... You wrote: A deceptive bad deal was "Jewish". What? When did that happen? Not in my day. To Jew someone down was seen as being adept at doing business. Who the heck turned it into something deceptive? :shock: Are you sure you've got that right? That wasn't my o...

Hurtful Language You May Not know.
I was born in the early 80's for context. When I was a small child we sang songs in elementary as most kids do. Nursery rhymes that often had hidden meanings we knew nothing about. Jack and Jill is a good example. Some were more hurtful, but we didn't know. One started with singing in broken English...

LOOK it's basically commanding the entire army of major organ systems: The left vagal nerve runs down the left side of your neck, and the right vagal nerve runs down your right side. This nerve extends all the way from your brain to the large intestines: down your neck, through your chest, around y...

Re: The Trump Criminal Case Megathread
Trump will become as dangerous as any other cobra when faced with the mongoose of justice. I'm pretty sure Star Trek TNG is a documentary sent from the distant future and your post is from a less distant future. We're both in trouble for violating the Temporal Prime Directive. https://youtu.be/vdg9...

Re: Greatest Movies of All Time
I think Dr. Shades might be right. It's the only movie I've watched dozens of times, and will watch again, and again, and again... That's a good indicator of a movie's greatness, I suppose. - Doc Of course Star Wars should be on anyone's list, but I maintain that Empire Strikes Back was even better...

Re: Rabbits (Review)
I'm glad I found this thread. I started doing hospice admissions a little over a year ago. Most of my time is taken up by charting, which I do at home. I started listening to podcasts not long after I started the job. Welcome to Night Vale was my first one, so I'm glad to see it on the list. I'm alm...

Re: Greatest Movies of All Time
What's strange is I can answer, True Detective Season 1 as my definitive favorite television series of all time. I can't do that with film. I loved the first season of True Detective , but the title of Best TV Series of All Time has to go to The Wire . Writing, acting, concept, genuine Baltimore. I...
