The Gaming thread - anything but video games
Chest Rockwell replied to Thunderplex's topic in Off Topic
Awesome thank you! -
Yeah, fine if you don't mind your own info being out there but not great for your neighbour
-
Please don't do that.

I think you know very well that any amount of time spent thinking about how it could've ended is too much.. i can tell you how it should've ended though; canned after the pilot.

VHS and Betamax You Have Recently Rented

Surely Taken was the father of this revenge fantasy genre? Excited to see Monkey Man though. -
I don't disagree with any of this. My point was more that they need to be cheap because their appeal lies in there being a lot of episodes.

Cheers guys, will check those out! š -
Not to get in to ratings chat, but no one is joining for Monk. It's a background binge watch; the streaming equivalent to daytime TV. They have their place, but the budget reflects the value.

I'm loving the sound of this! I used to play Warhammer as a kid, I've got some mates who play a lot of blood bowl but I can't get in to it and my brother plays Age of Sigmar, but that is still too space and time consuming for me to get in to. This seems like it'd really scratch the itch for me. I'm off to watch videos and look at pictures of minis! Edit: I'd love to have a read through the rulebook if anyone happens to have or find a link to a pdf.. -
Yeah that's a weird one that is. When you're part of a group that is really starved of representation you frequently find the positives in less than stellar examples. Which then become very dated as we make progress. Brings to mind the whole Apu thing, and Peter Sellers doing brown face.

Apologies in advance for being a dick as this relates to charity but you clearly know this thread is not a fundraising thread and bumping the progress of your appeal to solicit donations under the guise of it 'cheering you up' is not cool.
-
Ah, I see. If that's well-understood then it's unlikely that anyone else is making the same incorrect inference that I have done.

I think I might be getting confused because you were talking about anti-Semitism, and it seems the two are in this case completely unrelated? My understanding of 'Holocaust' and 'Holocaust denial' has always been that those terms refer specifically to the systematic genocide of Jews in Nazi Germany, and not any other social groups targeted by the third reich. That doesn't seem to be how those terms are being used here. I don't think it's helpful to use ambiguous language to imply she has been expressing anti-Semitic views.

Well yeah I was trying to find out about the Holocaust thing specifically as that sounded pretty extreme. And then what I found was a journalist publicly apologising for calling her a Holocaust denier and some sites saying it was all a load of bollocks and others saying she was the new Hitler but I couldn't really get a clear picture. I'm not going to lie and say I put loads of work in, nor am I asking you guys to spoonfeed me.. But it was more the point that if it's that unclear, people with be unlikely to be motivated to change their behaviours and I can't really blame them.

I haven't done because I know I can't see replies and that without an account, so I figured I wouldn't be able to get a proper sense of the conversation.
