59 per cent said Poilievre sounded too much like Trump.

Which is exactly why he was almost apopleptic about getting the federal election done BEFORE January when Trump took office. Before the theoretical shit show of a trump presidency became the actual shit show of a trump presidency.

People looking at what was happening in the us, and then looking at Poppinfresh; our own little mini-trump, and promptly told him to fuck off to the tune of losing a 30 point lead.

I'm amazed he wasnt canned on the spot as leader.

The fact that she came up with a clever response rather than just saying "Yeah...we're done here." Is more than this Ralph Kramden wannabe deserves, to be honest.

Yawn. Call me when they release the Doctor Octopus backpack where the tentacles can be used as a mode of transport.

There are a number of network tv shows that could do a lot better if they were under a premium network and didn't have their hands tied, storywise.

Someone already mentioned Revolution, which was the first thing I thought of. So I'll go with another one that came out around the same time that seriously needed to be somewhere where it could be more mature; Under the Dome.

The one that sticks out to me the most is not a TV show, but the two adaptations of the "The Stand". That should never have been produced by a network. It needed the freedom to go dark when necessary.

I've forgotten there even was a HW3

My opinion as a user:

I don't personally care. I don't necessarily see GIMP as being a slur at all, since to me it's more related to a completely consentual sex thing than to something a person has no control over. It's not called "R-word" or anything like that. If a person wants to be a gimp, more power to 'em. Let their freak flag fly, I say. And I'm not aware of the other use being at all common anymore, having been replaced with other more modern slurs.

However, in the matter of optics, sure, it still comes off as a little odd, possibly immature, etc... But the argument that "No body wants a name change" actually does hold some merit because GIMP is completely open source. There is nothing stopping people from forking it and releasing it with a new name, and even though this has been done (Glimpse) nobody jumps ship to this new, more maturely named alternative that is exactly the same. They stay on GIMP. Why...because no one really cares. We're all mature enough to say "haha...stupid name" and then move on with our lives without getting into a huff about every little thing.

It shouldn't be a crime if it's objectively hilarious.

It's called tact. Adults generally have it.
