The Michael A. Naso Institute of Comedy

[Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home.]

A MacGyver type movie is like:  “Appears to be no one home….what’s this?  A small piece of paper with the letter Q on it?….what could Q stand for?...well…in 720AD the Queen of England had a niece named Quindline who drowned during a site seeing trip along the Nile…so we better check the boat dock right away!”

and National Treasure falls into the MacGyver category (correctly guess a whole paragraph of esoteric crap with the hint of a single letter of the alphabet)…which bores me also.

ahem

does that help?

No, I just find it humorous that one who seems to be certain of the meaning of:

"And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads."

would say such a thing.

well, how hard is it, exactly, to take the verse you quoted in Rev 12:3 and compare it to Rev 13:1 and Rev 17:3 and conclude they represent the same thing?

Rev 12:3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads.

Rev 13:1 The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name.

Rev 17:3 Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.

That’s hardly MacGyverish.

It's time to nationalize this institute.

Why were you even talking film in here?  For like a whole page?

Rhetorical question; don't answer it, just GTFO.

Back in theme... Some fun about the German voting system :

The absurdity of an electoral system in action:

- The constituency of Lichtenberg 1 has been wrongly called for the SPD. Instead, it is won by the candidate of the Left Party: http://www.tagesspiegel.de/berlin/spd-verliert-direktmandat/4628022.html

- That means that one person less is elected on the Left list, because of the extra direct seat. That's bad news for some guy on the Left party list, but a zero sum game for the party so far.
But now it is getting funny:

- As a result of loosing Lichtenberg 1, the SPD district list in Lichtenberg no longer has an overhang.

- So the SPD looses that overhang mandate.

- As a result of that, two compensatory seats (in contrast to Bundestag elections, overhang seats in Berlin are balanced by compensatory seats for the not overhanging lists to ensure exact proportional representation) fall away: One for the Greens, and one for the Left (!).

- So the new Berlin parliament is shrinking from 152 to 149 seats: One less each for SPD (overhang mandate), Greens and Left (compensatory seats).

- So the bottom line is: By winning Lichtenberg 1, the Left has a net loss of one seat.

And if you don't understand that, it is not because of the flaws of the Berlin electoral system or my English writing skills, but is entirely your fault

For the record, the post is about the fact a party won a constituency seat in a recount, but due to the compensatory list vote this actually made the party lose a seat.

Humour is all relative, you fascist fyckwits.

Guys, can you all shut up, please?

Why does Germany always reward failure and punish success?

Save us from this tide of vulgar Post Modernism!

I support deleting the last two pages of this thread and pretending they never happened.

then we first need to save the following:

Do you realize most of "thread-jacking" is made of posts complaining about thread-jacking ?

This certainly means something interesting and funny, but sadly I don't know what.

You made a post complaining about the number of posts in the thread complaining about the threadjacking of the thread.

Thus, postmodernism.

Thus, Lyotard. Because he had a funnier face than Derrida.

Although there's always another option...
