I just finished watching all the seasons of Tim & Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job. Goddamn hilarious. And I've started watching Sons Of Anarchy. Reminds me alot of The Sopranos, just with bikers of course. it's quite entertaining.

Let's keep topics about the new forum limited to this thread - if it becomes a big thing, we could consider a subforum, or start up a bug tracking database (although there really shouldn't be any bugs per se)...

Salvatorin died in his sleep this morning. Chatmm and beak are both reeling. He was posting in chatmm this morning when I got out of work. Unreal, so upsetting. Such a good dude. No idea what else to say.

I'm (still!) currently reading Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day but took a break in between to read Don DeLillo's Great Jones Street and Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, the first gothic horror novel. Anyone reading anything cool at the moment? Don't even say it's the fuckin' Kite Runner

is a nazi Peterson on the Nazi-o-meter... Believes in a form of Social Darwinism in which Judeo-Christian culture is inherently superior to others and in which biology selects these culturally superior traits. Salivates over hierarchical laws of nature, and the Pareto Principle, Vilfredo Pareto being a big influence on WW2 era fascists. Quotes, retweets and interviews race realists ( Linda Gottfredson et al), and self-described white nationalists who advocate a white ethnostate. Promotes a "postmodern neo Marxist" conspiracy, a resurrection of the far-right, anti-Semitic, Cultural Bolshevism meme. Beli…

i jam a memorex into my walkman and throw on my trench before heading out around 11:30. the strange orange glow of the incessant california fires clashed with the crisp coolness of the air. the night was young, anything could happen. i walked swiftly out of my gang-dommed neighborhood, dodging the fierce glances always seeming to me right on the edge of a violent outburst. still, the gangs had been simmering lately and that was better than the boilings over that kept me locked in my basement earlier in the summer. i made my way to the strip, keeping my headphones on but turning down the volume as i sauntered into the realm of the cruising night owls just getting things st…

been watching a lot of Big Bang Theory and it has rekindled my old geek passtime of reading comics & TPBs. there was a graphic novel thread about a year ago, but i thought the topic deserved expansion. do any readers on here still trek down to the store, or download digitally for tablets, maybe just pirate CBR files? still trying to fill in the gaps on my Jack Kirby Fourth World collection, and damn they went up in value quickly (hardcovers). it's so hard to keep up with Marvel & DC continuity, what do the fans on here read? indies, manga? recommendations welcome.

The US usually thinks of itself as the world, look at our media, it's always about " me me me". Well yes there are other countries on earth, and they don't always see eye to eye with our vision of ourselves. So WATMM, a lot of you are from everywhere else, what say you? How full of ourselves are we? Do we appear to be the gun toting, race war baiting, waterboarding, overweight, loudmouths that out media portrays us to be? I'm really curious about your opinions, so much of the media is US focused, a lot of global news and issues get lost in the noise.
