RIPD


RIPD 
 
Have noticed that nerds and geeks use RIPD instead of RIP when talking about people dying. Even I have to watch using it when I talk about the recently departed folks. I love that people use this term despite the fact it comes from a shitty movie called R.I.P.D. We Hate Movies uses this term to honor people that pass away instead of RIP. And, I started using it too. I then heard another podcast use it.
The term is based on a comic book and the movie stars Ryan Reynolds. (Reynolds has tried for years getting a comic book franchise going.)  I remember watching this movie and shaking my head on how bad it was.  And, it seems to be a direct ripoff of MIB. 
I guess this is that shitty movie's only lasting legacy. Even Jeff Bridges has distanced himself from the movie.

The Pound is out of control

The Quartering ended up completely taking down the Kino channel without any strikes.  I still don’t know how he even managed that.  He bragged that he could do it, and two days later, he did.  Somehow, he has managed to unite the right and left to mock and call him out.  The Quartering can no longer attack Zoe Quinn or Anita, given that he uses the same tactics.  Hell, both Quinn and Mundane Matt admitted they flagged things down.  When Quinn is a bigger man about it, that is saying a lot.   My theory is that he was in a cuck like relationship. He got caught, the bull got outed, and he is playing complete damage control.  I think he doesn’t like that his current religious grift is outed as fake, that he wants to burn it all down.  Looking back at all the videos, he has some serious bounty issues.   The Internet never forgets, and Jeremy knows this.  He still wants to burn it all down.  Okay.

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

Obsession Dating

A Blind Date __________________________ I’m not a fan of blind dates and I’ve had friends attempt to ‘fix me up’ with someone they know. And, I always say nope I don’t do blind dates or ‘fix me ups’. The chance of there being an awkward time is usually 75%. I say meet someone on your on terms. Anyway, I came across this little gem from the old show Blind Date. The woman in the clip is called Kara. But most people will know her as Obsession, a pornstar. For some reason, she’s billed as an underwear model. And she claims she’s a student. (Is this a stock answer for strippers and pornstars?) The guy in the video appears to not know her true identity. I guess he doesn’t have the Internet in his house. He doesn’t have a clue. I’d be one happy guy if I saw her stepping up to my door. Due to her interesting past, every answer she gives him has a completely new meaning. The best one is when he starts to ask her, “Have you been with a woman?” She pauses ...
