    [Question] I need a good outlet for aggression - anyone here practice Kendo?

    I did Iaido for 8 years and made my way up to Shodan. It was more of a moving meditative art than anything physical. But I looked damn good in pleated pants.

    Whine like a baby, now with 500% more drama!

    I understand Cog. My life has been filled with fortune and luck and I never felt the sting of personal loss and tragedy for many years. The opportunity to get 'used to it' is certainly part of our human experience but it's also tremendously gratifying at the same time. I liken it to having a...

    [Movies] Star Wars: The Last Jedi SPOILER THREAD

    You're telling me! My wife doesn't want the kid to play hockey when he grows up. So I bought him this: Hard to argue against cute. And I think it's such a rarity in blockbuster film making that it should be lauded. A lot of other stuff from the movie was pure garbage but that was...

    [Movies] Star Wars: The Last Jedi SPOILER THREAD

    Living in a community with a HUGE pacifist culture, Luke's actions at the end of TLJ were very well-received. A victory without violence was seen as truly something special. It's an interesting take on it.

    Well, you could just call it the last Jedi. Not the first Jedi, but the last Jedi.

    [Movies] Star Wars: The Last Jedi SPOILER THREAD

    My thoughts on this are that Luke was never going to be a great Jedi. He didn't have a teacher/master long enough to learn. He had raw, natural power courtesy of being half-Skywalker, but he was never going to go God-mode. My thoughts are that the force project were the limits of his power and...

    It's -40 outside. But it's beautiful and sunny, blue skies, but it's -40.

    [Movies] MCU: Phase 3 And Beyond

    My own theory (and why they haven't released the title of Avengers 4. Big final battle. Both sides taking losses. On the good guys, Cap or Tony bite it, but the Avengers fight on, eventually driving Thanos back through some Macguffin we haven't heard about it. He leaves through the original...

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    It will be interesting to see the bulking program he undertakes - especially if he's comparable to Henry Cavill.

    The Super Dooper Canadian Thread (now with 47% more Canadian Bacon)

    Strange family connection: my in-laws have had Fred Penner over to their house repeatedly as a guest. The first time I went to their farm, it was definitely unexpected to see a picture of Mr "The Cat Came Back" singing with my wife and her sisters :-/
