I need to borrow from a friend after we watched it. We're kinda conflicting on our conclusions but he's not really the debating type.
What conclusions are those?
He thinks that
It happens as stated by Teddy, Sammy is Lenny. I was thinking that can't be true, because Lenny should remember in detail about his wife's diabetes, including remembering about insulin shots. There was also the detailed dialogue between Lenny and Sammy's wife, which is pretty much a part of the intact pieces of memory Lenny has.
Unless Lenny has conditioned himself to make those memories, but that would be too hard.
As I am typing this I managed to confuse myself further.
he is right. you're told what the situation is accurately, within the film.
when threads like that pop up, and they have been a lot lately, I just find myself hoping that by about the 8th page someone will say something silly enough to change the topic to something that's actually interesting. until it gets to that point it feels like a bunch of people waiting for someone to be an idiot.
Hey you guys do realize there are like... tens of millions of Americans who feel that way. It'd take a pretty gargantuan amount of cognitive dissonance to be shocked by it, I think, if you were raised in the Western world.

goddamn it that article linked last page put me in a bad mood.

I know that, but I like to think that all that ignorance has centralized itself in our southern states, conveniently located in a place where a stray warhead can accidentally knock it off the earth one day. Not in a damn public university in the middle of southern california.
Plus I grew up dirt poor and my parents pick grapes for a living. Because they just don't want to get better jobs. Yeah fucking right.

That shit don't fly around me.
The whole RP 'movement' in the past year or two I think showed just how many young males are still receptive to every man for himself ideas of morality and politics.

Actually the Ron Paul "movement" just showed that a startling number of today's young males have extensive brain damage.

motherfuck, I have been really wanting to play WoW and diablo 2 on and off, both of them. and I suppose I could, though I shouldn't spend the money really. but I think I'd rather play d2, even just to see it after all this time... but it costs more, because I have absolutely no idea where the discs are from ages ago. and either one I could play right now cause blizz sells d2 on their website. shit.

Well yes, we can call it what we'd like but the idea remains. A lot of young American men are repulsed by the ideas of community approaches to fixing problems. Every man for himself, fuck you I got mine, etc.

Just another problem that could be fixed by the leaders of the world watching Naruto and then THREE-MAN CELLS.
Three man cells. It'd be genius. Rely on your teammates.
Listening to Wolfmother's self-titled album for the first time.
Also I'm not feeling well and considering calling in sick today. Mojo is a prophet, or something.

ALL HAIL THE PROPHET.
Actually, I'm not feeling great myself, but I've got a follow up doctor's appointment for my weird zombie skin disease so I'll see what she things about my other problems today too. It's the slippery slope to becoming a girl though.

Prophet of Nurgle or what?
I see we have movie awareness thread by Gim! Yay, Gim!
Anyway, I don't care what ohters say, I like the Wolfmother album you're currently listening to, James.
I was thinking about a particular moment in some fiction where the main character, who's a lazy and ill-mannered teenager is home alone and somehow his sometimes paranoid and often disappointed mother believes him to be in some danger. Upon finally arriving to see he's fine, she embraces him, near the point of tears, repeating "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter." His own safety paramount in her concerns. But as time wore on, the effect of that moment was diluted by her apparent return to her old ways and his own apathy.
When I tried to remember what that was from, I realized with a start that it wasn't a fictional event, but one of those strange moments from my own life.
Talk about inability to distinguish fact and fantasy.

Talk about going through the looking glass and looping back around to the other side.
I mean, he isn't an amazing director, but he isn't horrible. Versus was a very enjoyable movie.
Yes, I laughed my ass off together with a hundred other people. Saw it on a fantasy and horror festival a few years ago and I've yet to see a Kitamura film I can take seriously.

Hacksaw even looks mildly attractive, which is of course absurd.
But he has a giant dick.
True enough, but I'm a rather thin fellow.
If he took me from behind I'm rather afraid he'd SNAP ME IN TWO.

we consider a scenario in which two inertial participants communicate via a noiseless, bosonic, dual-rail qubit channel in the presence of a uniformly accelerated eavesdropper.
Man, some papers are just nonsense.

I COULD BE THAT IDIOT!
Nah, I'm already jailed.
Better just leave well enough alone.
I had a freshman girl in an ethnic studies class I took this past year that said things exactly like this.
"People can always just move to a better place to live or get a better job." (Paraphrasing of course)
I could not believe what I would hear sometimes.
Plus I grew up dirt poor and my parents pick grapes for a living. Because they just don't want to get better jobs. Yeah fucking right.

The iPod on the grave thing? Yeah. I couldn't even finish reading.

NO ONE IS SAFE!

Being psyched that a theater nearby is actually getting Midnight Meat Train.

Edit: Kitamura? Mwahahahaha!

Everything seems distorted, loopy.

I continue to take issue with lack of improvements in AI and animation
