SRK Lounge V. 16 The Politically Correct Edition...nah. Let's keep the midget jokes going Sovi3t!

Do they mean Batman vs Marvel?

uh they finished the show…the last episode was spidey and stan lee dimension tripping.

the voices in those fox spidey and x-men shows are fucking terrible. i never watched them when i was younger, but i would randomly watch the re-runs on disney in college and i never understood how people could get beyond that. batman tas just shit all over those shows, even superman tas did.

Even as a youngin, I’ve been hatin on Supes. At the age of 6 I told my cousin he can eat a dick

That didn’t count. Where MJ@? I just wanna know.

what’s with people hating on the x-men animated show? yes, certain aspects of it were bad, but overall it was pretty good. you can’t really ask for a better adaptation when it comes to a children’s cartoon and all the baggage that comes with that. and people comparing it to the Batman animated series, gtfo with that shit. that’s like comparing fogo de chao to mcdonald’s. I like both those things, but they’re just not in the same league.

maybe I’m biased cause I grew up with it, but I still think it holds up as a decent show. it’s certainly better than the godawful spider-man show from the 90’s.

shit like this pisses me off. People are just so fucking ignorant. NASA’s budget is very tiny portion of the overall budget and has a huge return on investment. And I don’t mean just cultural and scientific advances. I’m talking real tangible advances that affect people’s lives. Know someone that’s had an MRI? That is a direct result of NASA research. There are tons of other examples.

lol i heard nasa’s budget is %2 of the national budget or sumtin to that effect.

A/C > NASA

“That nigger is too smart for a nigger!” And BOOM! no more Neil deGrasse Tyson. :sad:

.7%. That reeks of an institution with no lobbying savvy whatsoever.

I have never had Curry and I really want to try some, there are no Indian restraunts here though.

The military spends more on ACs than NASA’s entire budget.

Higher Niel DeGrasse-Tyson. :cool:

I can’t wait to see every other developing nation own us in science and technology; since, according to the American government, if it can’t blow shit up good, it’s not worth spending money on.

I liked both Spidey and X-Men, they were the 90s for me. I only started to dislike Spider-man during the whole “Carnage sucking out my life force” crapola. OK, so he sucks people’s “life force” but can you at least give him his tentacles and gooey texture?

I haven’t read all the details on that story… but it really a permanent end to the program? Mankind truly is even more pathetic and shortsighted than I initially thought if no one wants to eventually discover an efficient and reliable means of interstellar/interplanetary travel. Build a better ship, better protective gear and technology and a way to efficiently explore the rest of this solar system and beyond. Even the things that could accidentally be discovered could prove useful… and there’s so many questions and research to be done. "We choose to do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard."

Edit—aha! http://www.nasa.gov/about/whats_next.html Hell yeah…progress isn’t over.

'90s Fox era Spiderman cartoon = SLAW. Where does one even begin? Horribly ugly and inconsistent art/animation, a forgettable theme song, and the unfortunate extreme censorship of 90s era Saturday Morning, making characters like Morbius into a joke (with a pig-nose, if I recall). The only time I remember liking it was the first 1 or 2 episodes where Spidey fought the Lizard, and when Venom showed up. Otherwise, that shit was soooo sorry. Spectacular Spiderman from a year or 2 ago pisses all over it… it’s not even fair to compare them, actually.

I almost don’t want to tell the story, because it’s TL;DR and anticlimactic. But whatever, you asked, here goes.

At about noon, she texts me asking me what I’m doing. I had just gotten a text from a friend I was supposed to meet up with that afternoon, saying they were cancelling because it was raining. (Then shortly after, the rain stopped, didn’t restart the rest of the day, friend still decided to hold onto a raincheck. Whatever.) So i tell her as much. She then texts back, “Well, I’m about to go meet my friends.” Which I assumed meant we wouldn’t meet until later. So I was instead going to go to a tournament in Seoul that was going on today–a qualifier for one of the nStarGame TV SSF4AE tournaments.

Then she texts back, “If you want to come with me, come.” So I told her I didn’t want to intrude and be the fifth wheel with her friends. But she insisted that it was ok, her friends said it was ok, and one of her best friends, whom I’ve already met and am friends with too, was celebrating her birthday today and I’m invited. So I succumb and head to the subway station–the opposite subway station from the tournament, thinking, “Well, this can’t go too badly, right?”

The birthday girl is married. And shortly after my fiance and I started dating, she told her husband (who also knows my fiance) about it. My fiance then told me his words was, “I’m disgusted. She should not date anyone but a Korean, and if I met the guy, I’d spit in his face.” But I’m cool with his wife, but there was no way I wanted to meet this guy. Thus starts the greatest trap since Kayo Police.

I get to my subway station, and wait 5 minutes for a train to even show up as COMING, as it shows approaching trains’ locations on the monitor. When one finally got closed to my station, I text her, realizing I would be late by now, and tell her as much. She waits until I get to my transfer station, to say, “That’s ok, <<birthday girl>> and her husband also said they would be late.”

Homey say what?

I text back, “You mean he’s coming?!” And she responds with, “Oh, don’t worry, it will be fine, this will be a good day. ^^ (Don’t you just love it when Asians use these things to make whatever inane statement they make seem innocuous?)” My response, and I quote: “What in the name of Robert E. Lee makes you think my meeting <<birthday girl>>'s xenophobic husband who tripped out on us being together is a good idea?!” I actually thought about backtracking, and going to the tournament, but it would’ve already started by the time I got there, since I had to backtrack. If I went to any arcade with AE in Seoul, they’d all be at the tournament. So no point in even trying to go back.

So then she calls me, and keeps saying everything will be fine. Then she puts her FRIENDS on the phone to convince me, in Engrish, to “Prease come!” Then she gets the phone back, and told her there better be beer involved, but AFTER the party. She starts apologizing, because, you know, a simple apology counteracts not telling your s/o vital information that might be pertinent to him. After get off the phone, I start searching my bag for any weapons in case things get heated, only finding nail clippers that I had previously brought with me because I was in a rush and needed to clip my fingernails. Great, so if he decides to throw down, I can manicure him to death.

I get there, and the dude’s wife is telling me, “Don’t worry, he doesn’t hate you. He likes you.” In my mind, I’m making the last sentence run on to be “…as much as Hitler liked the Jews.” Dude doesn’t know me, at all, but has made some pretty bold statements against our relationship, and even a threat, but oh yes, we’re down. Doesn’t work that way in the real world.

Me, my fiance, dude’s wife, and one of my fiance’s other friends start walking to go meet him. I’m keeping behind them, as I have discovered, this is the perfect human shield, impervious to any physical attack. The reason being, my fiance and her other friend wears glasses, and the birthday girl is pregnant. I realized, in order to get to me, homey has to take out two women wearing glasses, and his pregnant wife, with no stairs nearby. I don’t think he was callous enough to do so, and if, for some reason, I was wrong, that would at least be enough time to start running like a Kenyan.

When we got into the restaurant, since he can’t speak English, he opted to explain through his wife, once he found out I was drawn back, that my fiance is an idiot, and misinterprets what she hears, that for a long time, he had a problem with interracial dating, but he had no beef with me. Then, he asked if I played games. “Yes.” “Street Fighter?” “Wat.”

So, he whips out him and his wife’s iPhones, and challenges me to SF4 on iPhone. So instead of me having to ward him off IRL, I’m instead trying to figure out the wonky controls with the iPhone while trying to do stuff I know works in SF4. I failed.

So we wind up being cool, while my fiance’s friends tell me not to listen to my fiance when she relays things that people say back to me, that she fails hard in that department. We wind up all spending the afternoon together, then we break off, me and fiance chill out the rest of the night, then head home.

Moral of the story: Why isn’t there a 2nd Amendment in Korea?

I was hoping for a cool martial arts battle at the trainyard.
Son, I am disappoint.

We settled for Viper vs. Gief at the overpass.

Keyword in that was anticlimactic.

nah no one likes nerds no matter the party. they needed to do some serious revenge of the nerds shit to get a good budget.

oh, it’s coming. China is already telling people around the world"If you build things, you should learn to speak chinese"

most estimates state that the Age of America will be done within 5 years.
