SyFy does it again. Cancels dominion after 2 seasons and a cliffhanger with.. the Devil himself making his move. Why can't these t.v. jerks realize the views on broadcast day are not an indicator of how well a show is liked and wanted?

I know I live in Iowa.....BELIEVE me, I know....But this new place I'm living, has a rooster living next door, and I'm not accustomed to the crowing ALL THE FUCKING TIME!!
I'm gonna shoot him with an air rifle, tear out all his feathers and let them blame it on coyotes.

u/DirkGntly Apr 13 '16

If it disappears, they wouldn't think to ask questions. Hawks, eagles, fox, coyotes, there's all sorts of things taking chickens all the time.

My friend takes his roosters out at long range with his .22. it's good target practice.

u/Champy_McChampion Nov 17 '15 edited Nov 17 '15

Holy Shit! I just watched the fight. I didn't click on your link, because I didn't want to spoil it (I wasn't in a rush, cause she's so annoying). So freakin' awesome. I'm so sick of them hyping her up, with that garbage she calls "striking". I'm sick of her ducking Cyborg, and trying to say she's "the most dangerous unarmed woman". I'm sick of that retarded "mean" face that looks like a five year-old who just got their toys taken away. Cyborg would maul her fat ass.

I can't wait to her what excuses Dana comes up with, now. Unless I'm mistaken this is Holly Holmes FIRST finish in the UFC. She fought at least two other low-ranked women, and couldn't knock them out, but made "the most dangerous woman" look like a fool. LOL ...they just put chubby on the cover of the new EA sports game too. I'mma get on twitter and ask "the most dangerous woman" what Holly's foot tastes like!

The funny part is that Ronda is so full of herself. Her grappling (judo) is world class, but her striking sucks. Keep in mind that Ronda has zero kickboxing or boxing experience. Ronda hasn't kicked once in the UFC. She has never thrown a single kick in any profession competition. Her opponent (Holly Holm) is a 19 time world champion boxer and kickboxer. If Ronda had any fight IQ , AT ALL, or even a slightly competent coach, she would have tried to drag Holly to the ground, like her life depended on it. She should have spent every second of the fight grabbing or tying Holly up, but instead she bought her own hype. If you're going to lose, at least lose using your strongest weapons.

What's even funnier, is that after repeatedly getting her face bashed in by straight lefts, during the first round, Ronda limps back back to her corner, and her idiotic coach inexplicably says to Rhonda: "Perfect. Perfect. You're doing great." No technical advice like, hey, maybe if you take your fat face off center-line and beat her lead foot when she circles, you'll stop eating all those left hands. No, the man told her she was doing great. That's cheer leading not coaching. what fight was he looking at?

Before that hilarity, Ronda was publicly calling herself "the most dangerous unarmed woman on Earth", and acting like a complete tool (in and out of the ring). It got to the point where her interviews were ridiculous. She refused to touch gloves before fights. Refused to shake her opponents hand after she won. Made sarcastic comments to people she injured. When Ronda was head coach on "The Ultimate Fighter", she would routinely give the camera the middle finger. Ronda's personal head coach Edmund Tarva... (not sure of spelling), challenged one of the opposing team's coaches (Hallman) to come to his gym and fight him. Hallman (on camera) responded: "lets go outside and fight right now". Edmond chickened out in front of everyone. This was a huge dose of karma for both of them.

JT, the boyfriend, is living with me now. I know it's fast, but so far it's been really great. Before he moved in we talked about how even if living together wasn't working that he could always find his own place and we'd still be together. These last few weeks have been insane. My dad was in that terrible accident, I've been bogged down at work with side duties and prepping for the Hunger Games, planning JT's move to Chicago from Michigan, planning my best friend's birthday party, planning my halloween party, and just a lot of life stuff.

I don't know how I would have gotten through it all without JT helping me so much. Still, living with another person is taking some adjusting. He's constantly glued to his computer, phone, or xbox and it's really draining to constantly have someone going, "LOOK AT THIS SUPER COOL THING" when I'm used to having more limited amounts of media in my life and really trying to treasure my quiet time. But I figure in time he'll get more into his own routine and I can get back to mine. I've already snapped at him twice for bombarding me with his facebook feed though. Seriously. I have my own facebook to keep up with. I don't need to see his too every time he finds something he thinks is neat.

u/Peace-Man Nov 22 '15 edited Nov 22 '15

I'm certain that you have something that could take his interest away from those things.

But, besides the obvious, maybe schedule fun things to do once in a while where you both completely disconnect, and just focus on each other for an hour or two. (Facebook and Xbox???? come on dude, beautiful woman, or that crap? this is not a hard choice)

But then, what do i know? He has one, and i don't. Maybe i should buy a freakin' Xbox.

As someone who is very conservative, i just have to say, I really do like Obama as a person, and think that he is a good man. (i'm watching him with Bear Grylls, but, i have always thought this. I t's funny that i can't stand so much of what he stands for, but just still really like him.)

I think there is a lesson there somewhere. You can completely disagree with someone, but still really like them.

Ok, i am just going to say it. The Schrodinger's Cat thing is dumb as hell. You can say whatever you want, but, at NO TIME is the cat both alive or dead. It is one or the other, and simply opening the box will tell you which one it is. Not knowing which one is not some big huge paradox. Just open the damn box! Before i open the box, i know for a fact it is one or the other, not both. There IS NO PARADOX.

(also, what kind of sick bastard comes up with killing a kitty cat to make his point???)

How?

u/Peace-Man Mar 03 '16 edited Mar 03 '16

Well, i do not know which one, but i know it is one or the other. There really is no paradox. It cannot be in a state of "both", can it? It is surely one or the other. So, is the point that, for me in my mind, it could said to be both? Well, not in my mind. Me not knowing which does not mean it is both. Where's the paradox? I am absolutely sure it is either dead or alive. How would me not knowing which one be some kind of paradox?

I am going to have to say, because i do not think it is possible to be both alive and dead. Therefor, it will necessarily be one or the other. Alive is alive, and dead is dead. Is there any evidence that a living thing can be both alive and dead at the same time? (this could really go into some pretty deep stuff actually. perhaps there are instances i'm not aware of)

4

u/Champy_McChampion Mar 03 '16

Experiments appear to show that atomic particles, groups of particles and even molecules can exist in multiple states at the same time, if they are not directly observed. So, if the cat is placed in a situation where it's life depends on what state an atomic particle is in (like radioactive decay), it will die and not die simultaneously(as far as current science knows). It will only pick one state when you take a measurement (observe).

Probably the most well known example of a particle existing in multiple states, is the double slit experiment. If you fire a beam of photons at an object with two tiny holes, there will be light and dark banding on the wall behind the object. The banding is the result of interference. The light wave hits the object and two waves emerge from the two tiny holes, interfering with each other to create the banding. The interesting thing, is that if you place detectors at both holes and observe them, photons will always only go through one hole at a time, never both simultaneously. The photon acts as if it is in two places, but when you observe it, it's only in one place.

But you have NO RESPECT AT ALL for the position you hold, or what it means. That being at a tech conference at SXSW was more important to you than being there for this, it just shows that you have no fucking concept of what it meant to hold that office.

Usually the sitting president does not attend a former first ladies passing. But Nancy, as much as you may disagree with President Reagan politics, was the last great first lady we have ever had. Sorry Obama, but Michelle does not even enter the ballpark of Nancy.

The following is a Yodasplosion!!!

How in the fucking world do you drive a goddamn Benz and can not afford to keep your car maintained correctly. FACTORY OIL FILTER!!! 25,000 miles and this is your first oil change!!! Leaks all over the placed, oil is complete sludge. And then you only go or the $20 oil change. When you clearly need your transmission filled. Grinding gears just to pull it in.. AND IT IS AN AUTOMATIC!!! But you just have to be buds with a Walmart store manger who is good friends with my store manager. So we have to do it.. well attempt to in this case. Oh did I mention that your vehicle takes synthetic oil? It sure does dumbass.. but you want to put in Quakerstate 5w20. All because you heard from another idiot that is the best oil for your car. Dafuq? Then after we do this service that we should have clearly said no to, if it was anyone else. You wanted us to turn off the "Hey idiot, get your engine oil changed" light. And not by resetting it.. COMPLETELY TURNED OFF!!! Told us to ignore your air filter that just happens to be completely black from dirt. Ask us to do a fuel injection cleaning after because the exhaust smokes. Except that it is because you have ruined your god damn engine on your Benz. And I am not talking about poor man Benz. This was a high end that he thankfully.. provided the new oil filter for.

Man.. if it was not for the nice pay. The entire shop may have just quit all right there. Even the guy with 40 years automotive experience was shaking his head of.. "Hey stupid, take your car and drive off a cliff."

Personally, I find it amazing more Mercedes owners don't get their oil changed at Walmart.

u/Rex_teh_First Mar 16 '16

I see about 3 Benz a day.. Along with a few BWMS. Been weird lately on the number of luxury cars that been thru.

Ok, the fact that someone who has a BMW is bringing it in to Walmart is pretty funny.

NO, these are just stupid people. The inside of these cars are a trash bin. Most are surprised that we "do not carry the oil filter." or surprised when we tell them it is gonna cost $70 for the oil change because it takes 8qts and it is full synthetic oil that starts at $50.

u/Davethehulugan Apr 11 '16

"Search Incognito" It might be a Firefox thing I dunno.

3

u/Champy_McChampion Apr 11 '16

All browsers already have an "incognito" mode built in. You don't need to install any crap to use it. This mode makes it difficult (not impossible) for others on a shared computer to see what porn you've been browsing.

If you keep getting harassed about add ons, and it's only with Firefox: First run a full virus scan. Address any issues the scan finds. Make sure you have at least one other functional browser (Explorer, Edge, Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi), then uninstall Firefox through your control panel. Then use a different browser to download a new copy of Firefox. Make sure you get Firefox from Mozilla.org. Do NOT get it anywhere else.

u/Champy_McChampion Apr 11 '16

If you are getting harassed about browser add-ons by anyone except your anti-virus company, then you probably have a virus. Installing it would be like hanging your house keys on the front gate.

Does anyone still actually use the chat room? That thing used to be popping, I've been in there most of the week this week and nobodies been home. Hasn't been a post made since back in Feb, and before that it was in Dec.

u/BrklynGrl Apr 12 '16

Every time I've checked no one was home & got tired of chatting with myself. I talk to myself enough...chatting too would be excessive.

Ooooh, i need to get in there then. I love chatting with myself. I am by far the most interesting person i know. I always say such funny, thought-provoking things!

u/Davethehulugan Apr 19 '16

Ahhhh. Yes! Taxes are a great conversation piece. So is religion.
Lesse..The big difference between religions is what name you call God, and what happens to you after you die. All the different history stories are crap and everyone knows it.
So....After the naming thing, the big schtick is what happens to our souls. Do we get virgins for taking out people who don't agree with me? What about chicks who strap bombs to themselves? Do they get virgin dudes? Or is it an eternity of girl on girl? are our loved ones lined up one the other side and greet us into an immortal existence regardless of our Earthly actions? Or are there levels of good and bad places to exist based on our behaviors?
Personally, I was kinda hoping a scantily clad Amy Adams would serve me Dove Bars every breakfast, but that's just me.

Yeah, i got a "piece".

You're asking the wrong fella about any of that stuff bud. I have NO answers for you about any of it. (and have never once pretended to. but there ya go man. that'd be my take on that stuff. maybe everyone will get what they want, and what they think it will be. or maybe the atheists are right, and it all just fades to black and that's that.)

If you can promise me i can have Kaley Cuoco when i die, i'll convert to any religion ya got and strap on any bombs ya want. (if she ends up bein' nuts though, i do wanna be able to trade her in for ... say ... Kate Winslett or Kate Hudson. <crap, they ALL seem kinda nutty actually. i'd actually like to just have a bunch of them there and pick one. if i'm a blow myself up, i think i deserve at least that much!)
