    It would have been terrible and the wrong color.
  2. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I am really interested in hearing about cross-examination of Michael Cohen today or tomorrow. Trump himself has made it his main thrust against Cohen that he is a known and convicted liar, but since the lie he was convicted for was that he DID NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE VERY CRIME TRUMP IS ON TRIAL...

    If I thought he were clever, which I don't, I might suspect things like this were traps. Like when someone, probably Karl Rove, released a damaging document about George W Bush that ran for a media cycle and then someone, probably Karl Rove, pointed out that the document used a font that...
  4. Ghostbusters General

    I appreciate as much involvement as they've got for nostalgia sake. But you might sum up your feeling of Ray in one of his early scenes. Ecto-1 passes by in the street and he just looks up with a wistful smile. He doesn't hurry out to get involved. I think in that scene he misses it, but...

    So I went for context and it does appear to be a bad joke. In March he said "rough people, in many cases from jails, prisons, from mental institutions, insane asylums, … you know, insane asylums, that’s ‘Silence of the Lambs’ stuff. Hannibal Lecter, anybody know Hannibal Lecter? We don’t want...
  6. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    I can't decide if I want context on praise for Hannibal Lector. Trump should not be impressed by the killing and cannibalism and probably isn't impressed by the "man of culture" part. What is there for him to like?

    Someone is making new broadcast networks?

    So 1) Forbes estimates $7.7 Billion now, despite Trump claiming higher. 2) My point didn't really depend on precise over and under $1 billion. He's a rich guy that could be doing classy things and going on adventures, but in reality he is crass and uncultured and really isn't interested in...

    Even before Truth Social, people who make it their business to know say he was a billionaire. The public can be fooled by spending $20 million a year, maybe, but I don't think Forbes is just watching that.

    I don't know how much public information there is, generally, to make the determinations. But his stake in Truth Social makes him a billionaire and that is publicly know.

    I don't think it would scare him at all. You really just don't hear about the gun-toting radical left winger very often. But he doesn't really believe anyone would want to hurt him.

    I am sure if he gets time, it will be house arrest. It isn't fair, but honestly that's what guys like him that weren't President get.

    Having an affair with a pornstar sounds like an adventure to a lot of people. But that isn't Donald Trump. He's a billionaire that could be dining in Michelin restaurants in Europe, living in a palace, collecting Ferraris, vacationing in the Mediterranean in a yacht. But he eats McDonalds...

    That is something nobody needs.
  16. Lego and other brick toys

    I was really surprised and disappointed that they didn't make a line of Star Wars minidolls back when they were doing the girls of Star Wars marketing push with other toys. Lego's use of the Star Wars license is pretty tame. Maybe they are really boxed in since Hasbro is so entrenched.
  17. Lego and other brick toys

    The incremental cost of designing the Cal minifig is irrelevant, yes. But Lego has a hard limit on how many sets they can manufacture at a time and an inflexible limit on how many they can market at a time. They have a lot of bases to cover and maybe some restrictions on the Star Wars license...

    I can easily imagine that the secret service has a facility of their own that they could use, but I don't know that they do.
  19. Traitor Watch - The 45 & 47 Thread

    Stormy Daniels' testimony surprised me. When I heard years ago that he'd paid to cover up an affair with a pornstar, they called it an affair and my concept was pretty much that. Biases of mine will show here, but Donald Trump and a pornstar read very easily to me as people with no...
  20. A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away.... - Star Wars General Discussion

    I mean, sure. But since Star Wars is not talking about the Arrakis drug when they say spice.... Spice is mentioned in the open title of Powerpuff Girls. It is mentioned in "Spice World". It is reasonable to think Lucas had read Dune when he wrote the throwaway line that C-3PO says in Episode...
