      Yep, we’re well known for our forgiveness. Just look at how we forgave Japan towards the end of World War II.

      Oh, you mean cults of personality. Yep, just look at how we forgave Joe McCarthy.

      If you’re talking about current cults, I figure it will be just the same. After they’re gone there won’t be a single supporter or ex-supporter to be found anywhere. And almost as many that fought against it from the inside as there were in the French Resistance.

      We’re well known for our forgiveness.

        Ann Coulter wrote a book about how wronged Joseph McCarthy was.

        You’d be wrong to think that demagogues don’t maintain supporters.

        Televangelists like Baker are a perfect example.

        The better example of cultlike behavior was the treatment of Japanese American citizens during WWII by the government and society at large, which many people still insist was perfectly fine rather than what it actually was, which was horrific and racist.

      Perhaps they think she has at least a few good qualities in addition to her clearly intense Mental Health Shit She’s Going Through, and want to know her better even if that means she’s not perfect?… Naaaaah.

      Realtalk though it is a bit sad that both Billie and Ruth are so used to thinking so little of themselves (never forget that this relationship truly started with ‘we’re both poison. We can touch each other’ and Billie was the one saying it) that they seem to assume Decent Normal People knowing about their worst moments definitely means they’re totally rejected, by everyone, always. Ruth’s reputation in the hall still isn’t great because of her past RAing (and a nonzero amount of her present, to be frank,) but we’ve also seen people express actual concern for her, too. And Billie’s clearly a mess, but that doesn’t mean they might not want to know about her secret nerddom and such.

      Or, this being Forrest Quad, that they haven’t all decided that since she clearly needs Help and Love and Support, they will provide all of these things in spades! Their niceness hivemind is strong.

        But “canceled” is a perfectly normal English word – the slang version isn’t spelled any differently.

        Two Ls is British English and older American English. Modern American English uses one L. This only became dominant in the 1980s, apparently.

          Ruth saying cancelled is how we know she is speaking with a Canadian accent.

            There is no Canadian accent. It’s all you furriners who have accents.

              The Canadian accent is the basic American Midwest accent; the only difference is adding ‘eh?’ to the end of every other sentence.

                There is no basic Canadian accent, the accent depends on where you live, and in some cases, is down to the individual town level.

          The classic science-fiction RPG Traveller, despite being a mostly American thing, uses the British spelling, which messes me up sometimes.

      Probably referring to the time when she shattered their illusion of her being a hyper-cool alpha bongo cheerleader.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

One of my favorite moments from Nobel Prize history: The Nobel Committee couldn’t reach Stanford professor Paul Milgrom to let him know that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize for Economics, so his fellow winner, Robert Wilson, went over to his house in the middle of the night to wake him up!

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

A thing that probably seems weird now. We didn’t know Vader had a mechanical hand till 1983. We didn’t know (for sure) that he had mechanical legs until 2005.

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it
One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

Optimus Prime's appearance at the end of GIJOE #140 is extremely funny to me, because the penciler (Chris Batista) definitely knows "what Optimus Prime looks like" while the colorist definitely doesn't.
