I’m not trying to persuade you of anything. I’m flat out telling you that you have no idea what you’re talking about.

No, if you’re going to have a DVD jukebox, you’re going to buy them. No burning. You can get tons of great random movies from pawn shops and other stores. That would be half the fun of it.

I’ve never looked at the Uncle movie with John Candy in this way before. Not sure what to think.

… that was created using your mother’s soul!

Or some shit. Lol

I like the discussion. Obviously I’m not dying on any hills here. I just think it’s worth looking at the movie in a different pov. Thank you.

I’ve been on the other side, as a patient.

Edit. I think she did want the best for everyone. Even during the climatic scene. She just didn’t know what else to do, and using his mother as a form of pressure, while definitely wrong in hindsight, was really all she had left at the time. Don’t forget that scene is the morning after they all threw a party and everyone was basically drunk, including staff.

I also recommend reading the book. It’s really good.

This is embarrassing

That’s seriously your response, are you four years old?

I’m more afraid of a smarter asshole. Trump’s the starting gun.

I like how people downvoted you on this. As if facial hair somehow evolved after recorded history.

The New Chad

I scratch my cats chin all the time. What are you on about?

The movie takes place in a different time, just to be clear.

The patient in question was faking being crazy. Acted out and challenged her every single day. He even snuck all of the patients out of the hospital, stole a bus and a boat, and went off on everyone for shits and giggles at every opportunity.

Of course I don’t agree with the lobotomy. But he was pushing real damn hard for it.

He was also a jail jumper. They put him in that ward to finally get rid him.

Ratchet was fine giving them their meds every day, and being the only nurse in charge of doing meetings and everything else, until he showed up and instigated everything.

I think she was just extremely fed up with the bullshit by the time that happened. Obviously it was a bad decision, I’m not going to defend the belittling.

The question with Trump is, CAN WE GIVE THAT MAN THE POWER TO DO THESE THINGS?

The question with Biden is, SINCE HE APPEARS INCAPABLE OF DOING THESE THINGS, WHO IS DOING THEM?

This is why you’re being downvoted so much. Both of these men have been president for four years. There isn’t any question of who would do what or who’s capable of what. You’ve obviously not been paying any attention for the last eight years.

It’s all documented. You can look all of it up on any number of websites both official and unofficial.

The summary of presidential powers is great. But you’re incredibly naive with everything else.

Oh boy, you really “got me on that one”.

Holy shit, you can speak English!

Are you off your meds today?

He was a kid, after all.

Right right. I too like to ignore bills that have been passed and who passed them 🙄

The reason, same with Israel, is because the US needs allies in the Middle East. A lot of “shock and awe” was launched from bases in Saudi Arabia. Which is extremely unsettling. But it highlights why the US keeps these countries as allies.
