Hurricanes Lounge XXVII: BURN THE NEW SERVERS!

[HisIceness]

I only read the articles when they get posted onto the boards.

Maybe now though I'll read them more often

 

[Lempo]

A self-respecting man publication certainly needs to have some articles. So that you have something to do after you have... read all posts.

 

[Lempo]

Can I change "man" from the previous one to "male-lifestyle"? Apparently if Wikipedia is to be trusted that is preferred term.

so uh, what would be the reason for my ip getting banned from this site this morning? (can still access via tablet) i don’t know if i even posted this morning, and i certainly don’t think i’ve broken any site rules lately?

I'll look in to this, going to post something in the support forum.

edit: looking at the support forum it appears there are some false positives coming across right now. Try clearing your cookies and your cache from your browser and let me know if that works.

and we're back (didn't delete cookies or cache or anything). I'll think back and fondly remember that 2 hours when I was wracking my brain trying to think of what I did to get banned.

While everyone is arguing if Die Hard 1 is a Christmas Movie or not (which it is), they are forgetting that Die Hard 2 is also a Christmas Movie.

I always cry when she puts her glove on the camera lens.

Is Jingle Bell Rock a Christmas song? You could very easily play it in January and it would be appropriate. I think.

No. Like Jingle Bells it's a general purpose winter song.

Or possibly a pseudo-christmassy valve song to slip in every now and the to prevent your head from exploding at these trying times with all the Santa crap.

...exists.

Rocky 5 is also a thing.

It's wrong to slam William Sadler for not being Alan Rickman or Jeremy Irons.

I don't even know who that is.

Also, a VHS recording from a movie channel you don't have loaned from a friend is the only proper way to watch a movie.

Movies are crap nowadays because you don't watch them from VHS. Once they didn't have to be good enought to have a chunk of tangible black plastic used on them, movies became bad.

Oh, one of the guys from Shawshank made a Die Hard movie?

Why?

Because some guys do porn at the start of their careers before hitting it big...

... but Bill Sadler wasn't one of the lucky ones.

So did anyone else watch A Christmas Story! Live?

Way too much of a musical for my taste, but I still enjoyed it.

I know it's reckless and vindictive but this is one of the best things I have seen this month

I don’t have the words to express this made me feel. That’s amazing.

aaaaaaaaand IP address banned again. i did have the site open in a tab for a couple hours, so maybe something with my destroyer of ads chrome extension denying ads or a script or something?

 

[vorbis]

aaaaand unbanned as of this morning. I don't understand what's going on, but I'm leaving this computer behind for several days so hopefully the problem will be resolved by the time I get back.

Wife and I watched for about five minutes, then decided we'd rather just watch the movie.

We caught the part where he beat up the bully, then went home and thought his dad was going to kill him. Everything about it just felt... bleh. Something was off, I'm not sure what.
