I can't help but wonder if whoever made that has no idea what a hippo actually is "floatie bloatie" is what they named them. "Snuffy Killy" would be a more accurate name.

I wonder if the trans support groups I've been to would be open to the idea that the pro-LGBT groups they support all suck **** through 10 bricks for their pro-censorship positions? Even if something in the media doesn't even actually have anything to do with anything/anyone LGBT (such as the King in Braveheart who threw the advisor out the window because the British were losing the war to Robert the Bruce), they want censorship.

There is no jumping around to some of my favorites that I listen to. If you can jump around to Tool, Wagner, or Pink Floyd (Alice Cooper maybe but it would be hard) then you are listening to the music in a way I am not. But, what the hell? Gregorian chant mosh pit!!

I want someone to buy me dinner tomorrow. And it's great, someone buying dinner for me instead of me being expected to buy!

hem...no...
the king threw that poor guy out of the window because he used to sodomize his son Edward.
That's why the king had to sleep with his daughter-in-law Isabelle....to make her conceive a heir....

lol

That is not at all implied. What is seen is Edward getting tired of excuses and acting like an angry king could back then.

Even if Edward threw him out the window because he's gay, so what? He's the villain of the movie, and he did worse to the hero.

Exactly.
I really love that movie because I identify with Isabelle.
I would have fallen in love with Wallace too.

I made a series of trips picking up/dropping off people to what I quickly discovered is one of the druggy hotels in town. And it's amazing how absolutely everything is more open here, including sitting out in the front parking lot, hard drug pipe in hand, and barely coherent. I had one passenger who's breathing I was listening closely to just encase he ODed before he got in my car, as he was pretty out of it himself.

I thought the movie was a farce (I'll pardon the appearance of faux accents, but Highland paint and kilts both in the wrong time?) that majorly overly glorified and over stated someone who's role wasn't much more than minor in that war. It even implies that some of the victories of Robert the Bruce were Wallace's, and it downplays the Battle of Stirling. And Edward wasn't that vicious and he didn't get that personally involved with the war.
A movie about Robert the Bruce, who bloodied and bruised the British up and down the Celtic lands in spite of great challenges (including severe famine) as well as moving to unite Ireland and Scotland, would have made for a much better movie.

I love Arya. She may be the one character is more of a bad *** ***** than Ripley, and it is not at all lightly or easily that I say that. Ripley kills Xenomorphs, but Arya is about as close to being as deadly as a Xenomorph as humans can be. And she exterminated an entire house, she effortlessly fought Brianne to a draw, and she's colder than the dark side of the moon.

I'm down to strays, stubborn, and thick hairs left on my face. And there are STILL some patches of shadow remaining.

And before I go to bed, I'm calling BS on Game of Thrones during the first battle between Danny and the Lannister army, because with the Dothraki charging the Lannister line would have been shattered the first time the dragon roasted some of them, and confusion and chaos would have reigned supreme over them from the start. That would be a level of fear and terror that no warlord or dictator has ever come close to, and I'm just not buying that there were any of them holding the line after that moment.

And because I looked it up, the Senate needs to hurry up and let us not have to mess with the clocks in the fall. It's dumb they have to approve it to begin with.
