Hailee Steinfeld is definitely a better actress (Actor now?) than the girl in the original True Grit. And Jeff Bridges is still pretty entertaining. Overall the remake was actually one of the few that I think lived up to the original, if not surpassing it.

kinda liked what you have written . it just is not that easy to discover great stuff to read (you know really READ and not simply going through it like a zombie before going to yet another post to just ignore), so cheers man for really not wasting my time on the god forsaken internet. :)

I would guess strongly that it was Israel. I had a long discussion about this yesterday. I don’t think the US govt would engage in direct acts of violence against Iran (sabotage of computers in nuclear facilities yes, car bomb assassinations no). The thing is, in order for there to be war with Iran, Iran has to be the aggressor. Nothing else will fly. If Israel attacks and the US backs them, I think we see World War III. I think of you wanted to see Persians and Arabs united in a way that dumbass Americans already think they are (we can’t tell the difference – sigh), then having the US side with Israel in going to war would be the best way to do it.
There are crazies in my country who want war with Iran. They are cavalier about war, ignorant about Islam, and dangerous. But at the highest levels, I think everyone knows you need a Gulf of Tonkin kind of “incident” to justify such a war without turning the world against us.
And it all just makes me sad. Coworkers look at me like I have three heads when I mention that I love Iran, Persian culture and, of course, Persian women.

Great ending line.
“Perhaps more people will relate to this: I hate Android for the same reason that Severus Snape hates Harry Potter — the very sight reminds me of something so beautiful, that was taken. Except it’s worse. It’s as if Harry Potter has grown up to become Voldemort.”

I thought this was going to be annoying, but it wasn’t. They don’t mention it, but the Style Zeitgeist forums are interesting for certain kinds of things.

Louis CK ended up making a million bucks off this venture. He’s using a quarter of that to give his crew big bonuses. He’s donating another quarter to charity.

I’m hoping someone realizes how stupid this whole thing is before—3 god damn years from now? For fucks sake—they run out of other options to keep it going. The SRT is rammed going West in the morning. Those people are all going to take the bus? How many more buses are going to have to be on the road for that to work. I hope every mother fucker who voted for Rob Ford and his dumbaclot posse of councillors feels like an asshole right now.

It’s weird…I’ve been trying not to think about the closing of the SRT too much because it’s so idiotic and will screw me over so fucking badly.

How does this make any sense? They need to shut down the useless shepherd line. The ridership difference between the SRT and the shepherd line isn’t that much and I imagine operating a subway is more expensive than operating the SRT.
God why does toronto have such shitty transit?

Bob, I want to go higher but not TOO high. How about I try to point us straight up and you just keep adjusting downward until we are climbing the right amount.
It just doesn’t make sense. But I’m not a pilot.

Yeah, this is a giant interface design fail. I don’t understand why you would want two control sticks whose input is averaged out either. When would that make sense?

My cousin and his wife are commercial airline pilots. I think I’d have found this fucking terrifying anyway. How on earth can you have a control system that has two independent control stocks but no visual feedback as to what either one is doing??
