Classic tormented comedian story, though I'm sure it had its unique twists. I remember back when he had his first major role as a villain, it was surprising at that point in his career yet he seemed oddly adept in the role.
My favorite quote from him (one of his roles): "I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up all alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is ending up with people who make you feel all alone."
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
that's a terrifyingly sad quote.Originally Posted by Animeniax

Which Marvel hero cant just smash all Titans by himself? :/
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
spiderman can go undercover in the scout unit. he is experienced in 3d movement and midair maneuvering.
Undercover? He can ruin them all single-handedly.
Until mutant titans start to appear.
But spider sense!

Terrorists will buy a big mirror and the laser destroyer will destroy itself.
Just like Archimedes, thats cool.
Los Angeles Raises Its Minimum Wage to $15 an Hour
Now this is just idiotic.
Ditto. Businesses will have to raise prices so min wage earners won't be much better off and those earning more than min wage will be worse off because they'll have to pay higher prices.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer?

To be fair, it doesn't hit $15 until 2020.
And there are still people protesting for McDonald's to raise their minimum wage to $15. You can live a perfectly decent life on minimum wage $9/hr full-time in California. Just forego some amenities and you'll be fine.
I dispute that. Are you living proof that you can live on $9/hr in California? In some states maybe, but it'd still be a tough life with lots of sacrifices. Of course, that should encourage a person to improve themselves so they make more money and don't have to subsist on the bare minimum, but evidently that doesn't work with lots of people.
What bugs me is when people start families when they can't afford to support them. If you make minimum wage, you should not be allowed to have children unless your spouse also makes at least twice minimum wage.
That's not that far off. I guess it still gives me time to increase my earning power so I can still afford to live the middle-middle class lifestyle I currently have. Once businesses raise prices to offset minimum wage increases, I'll be living a lower-middle class lifestyle at my current wages.

Indeed. Be more productive and work harder for us, wage-slave. Don't worry, even if the economy falters, we'll be bailed out again by our patsies-- I mean elected government representatives. Oh, and by the way, we're moving our businesses' "corporate headquarters" to Romania, there's a staff of one, and she works part time. You can review the details at our Innovation Headquarters, its the same building you've always known us in.
spacing - The 1%.
It's still the American dream after all. Personally I'm looking forward to a Fight Club-esque restructuring of society amid the destruction of financial records. Though that would piss me off since I spent all this time saving and being frugal.

Christopher Lee, 93, has died. No doubt like a Numenorean he chose this moment now that the Hobbit trilogy is finished as well. Though he had roles in bigger blockbusters especially of late, I'll always think of him as the best Count Dracula actor. May your rest be better than a vampire lord's!
Man was a true legend. R.I.P
