That was my ex-girlfriend, we broke up nearly 2 years ago now. She was a total forum queen herself on eco-warrior and environmentalism forums and such. She saw me posting and anonymously decided to jump in. Embarassing. I don't remember the screen name she used though.
My new girlfriend is 19, gorgeous, dutch, and loves Prince as much as I do. I couldn't ask for anything more.
On another note, Entropy is clearly saltynuts if you ask me. or that other guy who used to post all the conspiracy theories! What was his name?
I saw that somewhere too. I have a List for News on Twitter and in between the Netenyahu elections and fires all over Chicago and people getting killed or the fetuses cut out of them, I saw that headline and seriously thought about unfollowing them.
I don't know if it was USA Today, but it was definitely a major news outlet as that's who I follow. And local ones too. It might have been Yahoo News.
Ridiculous.

I would think HBO has the most money to give, Netflix is willing to give the most, and showtime probably isn't looking at it.
This season of TWD has been the most entertaining since the first couple. But, how is Michonne gonna kill all these zombies and have these flashbacks like she's still from the streets but then go an knock rick out like that. Completely contradicting of what happened in the first half of the episode.

She probably agrees with Rick, but saw Rick was losing his shit. To buy them some more time in Alexandria, she probably shut him up so they could plan something. Either a revolt and take over or maybe even try to resolve it with the Alexandrians. Either way, Rick can't fuck it up in his moment of clouded judgement. Dude wants Jessie's cooch and that whole fight with Pete was about that.
You might be the only one that thinks this. How else can they do a car show without sounding like Consumer Reports, which is what they admit to not trying to do? They want to do crazy stuff in other countries, challenges and all. If it goes back to "look at this Vauxhaul Astra and how economical it is," they'd be Fifth Gear. Which sucks cock.
The way I see it is he and two others made Top Gear what it is today. Whatever it was before the trio got big, I don't know. I didn't watch until 2005 or 2006. But since around that time, the show is synonymous with those three, with Clarkson being a bigger fan favorite than the others.
Clarkson made the show, to some extent, and he ultimately forced the BBC's hand to kill the very thing he made. I can't sympathize with him in this case. He literally forced their hand this time. After all the racist remarks he's made in the past, he still continued to ignore the BBC's "final" warnings. You just pity both sides in this case. Pity Clarkson for being a man-child, and pity the BBC for not being able to discipline Clarkson well enough early on to prevent it culminating into punching a producer.
I can't blame the producer. I'm mad he was involved because, fuck, why would you punch anyone, much less the guy that works his ass off behind the scenes for your show? Over food? I don't think Clarkson should have gotten away with just apologizing. And he didn't. I think the producer should have been allowed to make up their own mind on what the punishment was and ran it by the BBC disciplinary board before handing it down. Suspend him for the rest of the season. Dock his pay (though he has plenty of money, but...). I feel like Clarkson fucked the producer over still by getting fired. He'll have to find another job or, worse, have to endure creating Top Gear episodes that won't have near the same amount of viewership as before with Clarkson gone. I bet the other two leave as well.
What made TG special was the rapport the hosts had with viewers. Sure, bring in three more guys. I really like Chris Harris, actually. But how long will it take for them to establish their identity on a new Top Gear? And will it be enough to make people forget the previous hosts/Clarkson? I don't know. But I think it will flop. I don't even know what I'm hoping for in regards to the show. Bring in new people and have the issue I mentioned above? Jeopardize the show going out with a whimper in a few years if they can't salvage viewership?
Right now, I feel like Top Gear can get cancelled and I wouldn't feel a thing. I'd feel like it was a house fire and the three most important things got out alive. But I also want those three to land somewhere else. The Netflix suggestions are getting louder and I agree that it would be quite a rebound platform. I can handle not having the test track, regardless of if it belongs to the BBC or not. They can have a new "Stig" whose identity can be concealed with a Hijab or some shit. That's really it from the old show. You've got the hosts, it doesn't even have to be structured like TG was. The news, celebrity appearances, etc. Just give me a car show with those three being idiots and completing challenges.
If the Netflix thing were to happen, I doubt we see an episode before this time, 2017. And that's some shit right there. I still haven't watched the last episode, supposedly against TG USA, because I've been waiting for some hint of continuation of the show.
