Youall might not know this one. It just cracks me up. This is the song the admiral teaches the sailors.... and this is after the admiral insists that when giving orders an officer must say "If you please"



[Verse 1: Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together]
A British tar is a soaring soul,
As free as a mountain bird,
His energetic fist should be ready to resist
A dictatorial word.

[Chorus]
(Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter singing a round)
His nose should pant,
And his lip should curl,
His cheeks should flame,
And his brow should furl,
His bosom should heave,
And his heart should glow,
And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow.

(Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together, much faster now)
His nose should pant,
And his lip should curl,
His cheeks should flame,
And his brow should furl,
His bosom should heave,
And his heart should glow,
And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow.

[Verse 2: Ralph, Boatswain and Carpenter together]
His eyes should flash with an inborn fire,
His brow with scorn be wrung;
He never should bow down
to a domineering frown,
Or the tang of a tyrant tongue.

Re: White people enslave dogs tweet.

I made a 30 second "Paint" image, posted it as a reply (it garnered a whopping 10 "likes" - my humour is as poor as my creativity) and some bugger reported me for hateful content. Amazingly enough, the drones at Twatter didn't find it offensive and have allowed it to stand.

The offending tweet in all its hateful glory:



Seriously, some people have zero sense of humour.

I can't understand why CNN is still the network of choice at hospitals and airports.
CNN pays to be the only television in airports. CNN installs & maintain the TVs. The contracts are long-term: 8 years. Before CNN-- Ted Turner's media empire began with his father's billboard company. Airport TVs are really an extension of that.

Perhaps you serve a useful function, that of the "chew toy" in Pharyngulese. Has the PZ wannabe started editing your comments for effect yet?

Mat Staver makes an ignorant comment (and I'm tusting Hemant here) about pedophilia amongst the gender-twisted and the Thunking Athesists respond by making blanket associations between Xtianity and pedophilia. I suppose all those refugees from Pharyngula had to go somewhere.

Last month or so, I called out Hemant for misreading a poll, and cheering that support for trans use of bathrooms had increased when it'd actually declined. He deleted my comment then fixed the post without any acknowledgement.

Hemant's an holier-than-thou, SJW little twat, and TFA has devolved into the National Enquirer of Patheos -- clickbait headlines to vapid, Ophelia Benson-style whinges, on one of three subjects: Preachers Behaving Badly, Christians Are Stupid, and Those Noble Opressed LGBTQIAAAA.

The Hordlings there are just as bad as at Pharyngula -- worse even, as Peez banned any dissenting views that might send them into rabid foaming at the mouth. They must think themselves urbane, cultured intelligentsia, but they're straight out of Lord of the Flies.

This should maybe go in the trump dump, but it's it a great summation of how clever trump is at goading the Dems, especially just now in getting Pelosi to defend AOC and her Mean Girls only days after she'd smacked them down:

Welp,

It has been a roller coaster for me in the sense that every time I start to get thinking that "yep, there is no possibility now that Trump will get a second term" his opponents say something that has me thinking "WTF ... this is going to reelect the Orange one ... how can they not see this?"

My conclusion is that unless the economy craters, Trump is going to be returned to office.

Agreed.... and keep this in mind. AOC, and Talib, and Ohamr know that they will stay in the spotlight as long as Trump is president. They must have mixed feelings about the presidency. If they don't have Trump to attack they don't have much political support. The political careers of "The Squad" are more promising if Trump is reelected. These ladies are opportunists.... especially AOC. They are just in it for fame and money.

Am I wrong for hoping that twitter will just ban all the rational people so that they can spend their time more productively? Sam Harris is always talking about twitter, and how he doesn't want to spend his time there, but feels like he needs to so that he can debunk libel. Now Shepherd is saying the same thing.

Just let it go people. The whole platform was an awful idea to begin with, and it's been taken over by muppets. Its an orgy of imbeciles rolling in their own feces. People with an IQ over 105 should treat it like the leper colony it is and stay the fuck away.

These people are my peeps. I grew up in Warren. Macomb country is the land of Reagan Democrats.... and the Land of Trump Democrats. This article captures people's opinion of immigration pretty well. And, it is not that Warren is still all white (like when I lived there is the 70's). Warren is full of Bangladeshi immigrants now. And it is mostly okay because they are LEGAL immigrants. The reason Warren is a bit blue is that it has a fair amount of immigrants. It is not a blue place in the middle of red.... this is not accurate. The southern border of Warren is on 8 Mile Road which is Detroit. So.... the entire southern border is next to blue blue blue Detroit. This border is also the edge of the county.

Here is a map. You need to slide over to the South East side of Michigan to find Warren just North of Detroit.

Not bad at all. Heavily inspired by the energetic Darth Maul duel (easily the best part of Phantom Menace). There's some talented people out there.

On a related note, here's a drunken Scot sharing his 5 favorite Star Wars fight scenes:



Good stuff - I like the way Critical Drinker breaks down the scenes. Check his other stuff out as well - he's smart, funny and has a healthy dislike of SJW-ism.

Here's Danny Kaye showing how refined, and alternately how raw, his style was in 'The Court Jester'.

Been subbed to his channel for a while. His disdain for the SJW crowd (especially in Hollywood) is highly entertaining.

Heh - that was epic. Never seen the movie, added to list.

If it's classic you're after, you must have seen this:



The fight scenes are very well shot and seem to be realistic.

I'm a massive Kurosawa nut, this is my #1 sword fight scene of all time:



Assuming you've never seen the film, Kyuzu, the older samrai (the winner), was a perfectionist. He was utterly devoted to the art and was relentlessly honourable in his dealings with other people both on and off the battlefield. Of the seven, I think he's possibly my favourite although you'd need to put a gun to my head to force the decision.

Obviously, Mifune's portrayal of Kikuchiyo was legendary but I'm torn between the two.

Bollocks, now I'm itching to watch Yojimbo again... ;)

75th anniversary of Stauffenberg 's et al. assassination attempt on hitler.

Unlike with Tresckow on March 13ths, FB even let me post a photo of Stauffenberg. The algorithm probably identified him as Amanda Marcotte.

Not likely. He's prettier than that.

Sobering reading for the 'Tommy iz innocent!' brigade: https://concretemilkshake.wordpress.com ... -robinson/

tl;dr:
Let’s summarise what Robinson’s antics outside Leeds Crown Court have accomplished: They’ve needlessly reiterated information which by his own admission is already in the public domain resulting in the “exposure” of precisely nobody. They’ve come close to jeopardising the convictions of child rapists, narrowly avoiding doing so by sheer luck alone. They’ve allowed these rapists to file for a mistrial and provided them with grounds to appeal their convictions. They’ve caused a serial sex offender to flee the country and thereby escape justice. And they’ve once again deprived three blameless children of their fathers company for a period of two and a half months.
The absolute fucking twat.

From my point of view anything from the 70s will always seem more contemporary than classic. So 'The Duellists' does not quite cut it (to coin a phrase).

And as for the others - definitely something to see on the big screen. Along with Shogun Assassin of course.


But speaking of classics here's that sex-crazed Australian (not Brive, the other one) vs Sherlock Holmes.



I'm no great judge of technique - but I understand that Basil Rathbone had quite a reputation as a swordsman. Flynn's reputation was for equally physical pursuits - though of a different nature.


And since the subject has been opened up...

The serial sex offender fled when Robinson was in prison. How you gonna frame Tommy for that?

As for 'grounds to appeal', what sort of justice system is it when people are not allowed to appeal? And, of course, the appeal was thrown out of court.

I have yet to read of one case where somebody was released because somebody else talked to him outside a court.

As for concern about mistrials, when child rapist cases collapse, absolutely nobody is convicted, jailed or even charged with an offence.

All people say is ' it is such a shame'.

Well, I'll go full-circle (kinda) and link this - even though it's 100% CGI, the choreography is top-notch; lots of little "moves" that are very subtle/fast, you blink and you'll miss them.



I know it's quite long but if you watch it all, I guarantee there are one or two moments that have you cheering. Of particular note, the scene where Senya tries to rescue her daughter (Vaylin - an absolute monster force-user and total darkside psychpath in-the-making) and fights half a dozen temple guards. Pure bad-assery and the shot makes the majority of modern movies look terrible.

(jump to 18:00 if you don't want to watch the whole thing)

Obviously, the "Old Republic" setting is not well known to most people, it's very multi-layered and has the deepest lore in all of the Star Wars universe. Anyhoo, the full vid is worth a watch, even if it poses more questions than it answers. Some of the lightsaber scenes are amazing!

Well, let's see what the article says:
Thanks to the threat of an English Defence League protest on 1st June 2018 outside the courthouse where Tommy was arrested, and having been previously assaulted by this group on his way into court, rapist Sajid Hussain promptly pulled a disappearing act and had to be convicted and sentenced in his absence. Rather than wallowing in a prison cell serving a 17 year term for horrendous acts of sexual abuse upon minors, Hussain remains at large and is thought by police to have fled the country
'Waah but if Tommy hadn't been arrested in the first place then there would have been no threat of the EDL turning up!'

Well, if Tommy hadn't been there in the first place...etc etc

'Waah but he was doing essential work in exposing muslim paedophiles!'

Except he
reiterated information which by his own admission is already in the public domain resulting in the “exposure” of precisely nobody
Precisely nothing was gained by TR's twattery outside the court that day, while at least one sex offender has gone on the run, possibly overseas. Again: the absolute fucking twat.

So you are now blaming Tommy Robinson for stuff other people did while he was in jail - namely the police being incompetent, and unable to stop a child rapist disappearing.

Of course, the reaction of the authorities to child rapists is 'Bail them! Bail them! Oh look, they've run away. Never saw that coming.''
