| Proto_Spark 10/24/19 9:50:34 PM #7 | It considers itself a sport. Does it really matter where the line is? |
| Topic | Rian Johnson Confirms His Star Wars Trilogy Still in the Works |
| Proto_Spark 10/24/19 9:48:15 PM #41 | DevsBro posted... BeyondWalls posted...I think the space horses in the new trailer really means that Disney is clueless about where the franchise is going wrong. There's some kind of huge disconnect between Disney and the fans. I mean, some executive literally thought, "the fans will be disappointed if we don't follow up on that space horse storyline." So I have no problem believing Rian Johnson's trilogy is still in the works. I don't even think it was a terrible subplot. It made enough sense and kind of fit with the theme of "you ****ed up, now try something new" of the rest of the movie. Every one of Rose lines being some kind of #WOKE tweet about Social Justice really ruins the momentum of the movie, because a lot of them just feel forced. |
| Topic | anyone here have a chromebook? |
| Proto_Spark 10/22/19 11:53:52 AM #6 | Romulox28 posted... Proto_Spark posted... There are a lot of things that you might not use a lot but when you flat out can't use a certain thing on a . chromebook, its a much bigger problem. If you still have a regular PC and need to do basic stuff like browser, E mail and such from mobile you can probably be fine, but might run into some of these awkward issues every now and again. If you aren't a student or anything, a lot of these can disappear for you mostly just knowing you won't need to download this weird excel add on for a class or something. |
| Topic | The Canadian Federal Election Topic! |
| Proto_Spark 10/22/19 11:46:13 AM #148 | So if this doesn't bring back the issue of electoral reform, i don't think it'll ever be an issue again. Scheer technically won the popular vote, but has 30 less seats than Trudeau, and despite only getting about 15% . more votes than the Green Party, the Bloc got over 10x the seats, as well as 10 more than the NDP that got 2x as many votes. I don't actually want a conservative government, but It is kind of how it should've ended. |
| Topic | anyone here have a chromebook? |
| Proto_Spark 10/22/19 11:42:35 AM #2 | No. Being stuck on Chrome is way more restricting than you might think. It can run android apps and stuff, but its not fantastic. If you're like a student or just need a computer to be mobile and have another one its fine, otherwise its only a little bit better than trying to use an ipad as your PC |

| Topic | Breaking Pro Wrestling news - New Japan starts New Japan America |
| Proto_Spark 10/21/19 2:21:27 AM #6 | lol I guess NXT Japan was backwards. The American Indie scene is pretty picked over, I wonder how NJPW is gonna try to compete with WWE and AEW (considering AEW took most of the US NJPW guys) |
| Topic | What was the last good episode of The Simpsons? |
| Proto_Spark 10/20/19 11:27:16 PM #10 | ChocoboMog123 posted... I doubt any new Simpsons feels like the old Simpsons, with more realistic characters and jokes within jokes at constant speed, but I'm sure there's some good episodes. The Treehouse of Horror episodes are usually worth viewing. Don't go out of your way to watch the new Treehouse of Horrors. The last 3 or 4 years they've probably been the worst episode of the season. I didn't watch the newest one (that was tonight) yet but I'm not hopeful. |
| Topic | What was the last good episode of The Simpsons? |
| Proto_Spark 10/20/19 11:21:22 PM #8 | S27 E9 "Barthood" is basically a universally loved one. The Season 29 Finale "Barts Ladder" was pretty good too IMO. |
| Topic | Why doesn't feminism go both ways? |
| Proto_Spark 10/19/19 4:59:47 PM #23 | Pepys Monster posted... CyricZ posted...Feminists: *claw tooth and nail for rights, protections, parity, and dignity* This is because at least 99% of MRAs do nothing except use the concept of mens rights as an excuse to hate women. It kind of ruins the idea of taking them seriously. |

| Topic | CM Punk returning to WWE |
| Proto_Spark 10/09/19 7:18:54 PM #7 | TheBlueMonk_ posted... "Welcome to the WWE Smackdown post game show. Punk, what's your take on tonight's action?" Punk threw so much crap at AEW the last few weeks, they aren't ever taking him. And this is just Fox establishing dominance over WWE in this relationship with this move. |

| Topic | Was time travel in Avengers Endgame the most plausible? |
| Proto_Spark 10/06/19 12:54:42 PM #28 | Just because you make fun of other time travel movies, doesn't mean their idea of time travel makes any sense. |

| Topic | Lmao at the ongoing Pokemon stream |
| Proto_Spark 10/04/19 10:38:46 PM #16 | kirbymuncher posted... I dunno I think this is sort of neat The problem with that is that this whole video isn't really organized like a wildlife cam. For the most part, everything is acting like its actively hiding from the cameras, and the most we've seen are a couple of Morelull jumping out of the trees. It feels like the same kind of "obscure the new release" as sir-fetched was, but instead of a picture and reveal 3 days later, its one long 12 hour video. |
| Topic | No Need To Cut Back On Red Meat? Controversial New 'Guidelines' Lead To Outrage |
| Proto_Spark 09/30/19 11:28:32 PM #2 | None of the scientists performing this science are nutrition scientists. Also funded by big Food industries. Same guys who suggested "no, you don't need to limit your sugar intake". The only justification is "hey, we found you might be okay, therefore don't change anything". The defense was "This methodology isn't sound" and suggested the alternative to be something completely ridiculous and expensive. And since the alternative is ridiculous, clearly the status quo is the perfect answer. 1/2 this damn article is talking crap towards this study.

| Topic | Brown/Blackface Scandal DID NOT Hurt Justin Trudeau as Polls suggests a TIE!! |
| Proto_Spark 09/30/19 9:08:10 PM #9 | Dampproof posted... What do you expect? Conservatives couldn't capitalize on the SNC-Lavalin controversy. Why would this scandal put a dent in Trudeau? The SNC-Lavalin controversy wasn't even that big of a deal either, Trudeau threw his weight around, but he didn't even actually commit a crime. And Scheer can't get anywhere, because the Conservatives in Canada can't win anything unless they can successfully piss of the liberal vote so the 30% of the population that actually votes conservative can win. If Trudeau goes down, it'll be to Singh. But the NDP are full of losers, so that isn't going to happen. |
| Topic | Justin Trudeau wore brownface in 2001 |
| Proto_Spark 09/18/19 9:01:59 PM #62 | So in 2001 Trudeau was nearly 30 years old. How in the world is he dumb enough to think that was an okay idea, even in 2001?It's not like Black face wasn't a bad idea in 2001 The problem is that because of this scandal Trudeau's career is over and we're going too elect conservatives for some dumb reason. |

| Topic | DC or Marvel |
| Proto_Spark 09/09/19 9:16:48 PM #11 | I'm a bigger fan of the DC comics, but the Marvel movies are just so much better than the DC ones (DC is on a bit of a roll lately, but they still need a couple more good movies in the belt) |

| Topic | The civil war was an apology for slavery |
| Proto_Spark 08/26/19 7:31:12 PM #7 | Hexenherz posted... DeadBankerDream posted...coh posted...I don't see why the civil war shouldn't be seen as atonement for slavery to be honest.Because it wasnt a war to end slavery. I think it'd be better to say the Civil War was a war to keep slavery (By The South) than to end it. Like the Union wanted to remain a Union, and ending slavery just kinda had to happen to do so. |

I think Doom would be a good "filler" avengers villain, like how Ultron was basically just a stable for time while they kept hyping up Thanos. And it would be a good way to introduce some of the other "Top Marvel Guys" like the F4, similar to bringing in Quicklsilver/Scarlet Witch with Ultron. |
| Topic | Who is bad enough to be the next Marvel Films big evil? Spoilers |
| Proto_Spark 08/26/19 7:05:30 PM #12 | Dr. Doom or Galactus so they can introduce the Fantastic Four at the same time. Or Apocalypse because they have a "Mutants" movie coming out and can set up all the X-Men too. I think Apocalypse is still too recently done to redo it though. |
| Topic | Trump: Major consideration to labeling Antifa a terrorist organization |
| Proto_Spark 08/18/19 1:58:11 PM #28 | So I'm a little out of the loop here. Antifa is still a thing? I thought it died out in lieu of just "Trump sucks" protesting? When was the last Antifa attack? Because the last right wing extremist attack was like a week ago. |

Yeah but Apu hasn't shown up at all since then. Not exactly fake news |

| Topic | Why not age up The Simpsons permanently? |
| Proto_Spark 08/16/19 10:26:30 PM #7 | But the "Future Episodes" are some of the best episodes of the series, even the newer "future" episodes. Don't want to ruin that by making too many of them. |

| Topic | Are I kind of sad that GameStop is dying |
| Proto_Spark 08/14/19 9:55:49 PM #9 | I mean the ones near me barely even sell games anymore, so I'm not surprised that Funko Pops aren't popular enough to support a business. |

| Topic | Saw Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood yesterday (Spoilers?) |
| Proto_Spark 08/12/19 7:17:18 PM #10 | I thought it was really good too. Was actually a little disappointed when I first finished it, but it was really because I was expecting a more... Tarantino-esque movie. All the Manson stuff felt like it would be more important, whereas it was kind of just thrown in so we could have a more physical conflict at the end. |

| Proto_Spark 08/07/19 6:48:05 PM #9 | I remember looking at the epic store when it first launched and they had some game about playing as the shark eating people. Idk what it was called but it sounded awesome. I'm getting Borderlands 3 on console so I don't care about that. |
| Topic | why are people mad about epic exclusives |
| Proto_Spark 08/07/19 6:45:56 PM #9 | Because Steam has a monopoly on the market, and people aren't willing to accept new competitors. |
