in the shell

I was always under the impresson it was just Bondage Domination SubMission. But I guess I'm wrong. Sorry I haven't been posting. Work-related stuff, preparations for hurricane season, etc. And I'm sorry if the discussion seems sordid to anyone... As an abbreviation, BDSM usually signifies Bondage/D...

I watched a short called "kai doh maru" recently and it was the most horribly boring, badly written, badly directed piece of ?%&* that I've seen in a while! If you watch it anyway don't say I didn't warn you. :lol: :lol: :lol: I think I mentioned on the previous page that it was one o...

I am playing a game at the moment where there are tonnes of interesting characters in my party but my main hero is an archetypical bare-bones hero who... well... just goes about being the hero, as though that should somehow make him the main protagonist. The other characters are all so well-develop...

I read some of a Heinlein book -I can't remember which one- and it was so weird that I ran away and ever went back. It was full of people sleeping with their own mothers and going on about being surrogate mothers to Chinese babies. The main character was part of some strange culture that was into p...

You're weird. Yep. Guilty as charged. Stop harassing Jeni- she won't be your cruel master. :shock: :lol: :lol: I wasn't saying that I needed a domme. I was saying the "Forum Dominatrix" job title would look cool on a business card... :wink: As for me, I'm happily taken. I don't think ma p...

I guess it's just to say that my environment is probably not the same environment that most people (particularly often feminist people) are thinking of. So I use a lot of personal examples to try and illustrate where I am coming from. You're probably right about your environment being different fro...

I knew I was gonna get sh## for the Mozart thing as soon as I typed it. I figured Id leave it in to ruffle feathers a bit.. Heh. For what it's worth, my feathers weren't ruffled. I was up in my nest, observing the scene like a camera looking at CGI armies of orcs and humans... :wink: I liked the fi...

Do you also like Night of the Hunter? Have you seen Odd Man Out? Ive heard it is very good, but cant find a copy to see. Night of the Hunter 's one of my all-time faves. If you mean the Carol Reed film Odd Man Out , it rocks, although I prefer The Third Man and The Fallen Idol . Of course, I dig Te...

Call me old-fashioned, but the above post kind of relates to a barroom conversation I had with a guy in his eighties a while back. The bartender, a good friend of mine, introduced me to the man because the fellow and I have similar tastes in films. The old man and I wound up talking at one point abo...

Um ok, What is with the LotR bashing? They skiped stacks of stuff in all three movies, granted they added silly orkies scenes but not many. They were way to short if anything. Sorry but I have to say *Wimps* also it reminds me of the Austrians emperor's comment on Mozart's music having too many not...

But you know, the list of things I don't like that everyone else hails as genius is as long as a Lord of the Rings trilogy, so what do I know? Only kidding- nothing is that long. It's not an Asian film, but I'm a huge fan of Krzysztof Kieślowski's Decalogue -- ten short films, some interco...

I havent had time to keep up with this whole line of posts, but for some reason I was able to read this bit today, and I just wanted to pop in and say I find many many people with the same relation to literature in my field. They plug in these theories with big words but cant get their mind around ...

I was familliar with the quote you posted, and that quote was all I attempted to draw parralels with. Not to nitpick, but you wrote in response to my discussion of Lenji: Again I have not read buddism, but this seems to run along the same lines as some personal views I have. Given that I'd discusse...

:lol: lol, did you mean there to be innuendo in that last one or not? there seems to be innuendo wherever I look in lord of the rings.. :oops: Innuendo? Moi ? I was just quoting Professor Tolkien's work... :wink: I recall a bunch of Orcs singing "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way" in th...

"We're right, Petrie! This passage was recently used by Fu-Manchu!"-- Nayland Smith, in Sax Rohmer's The Hand of Fu-Manchu (I tend to quote this line when someone makes a pretty obvious and self-evident statement.) "I bear you no malice for your ancient enmity, and even now I am condu...
