    I will stab you
    In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
    The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.

    But that makes perfect sense. Now its all clear.
    "Son," he said without preamble, "never trust a man who doesn't drink, because he's probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They're the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can't trust a man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It's damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he's heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl.

    Argument is too strong a word. That said, the job of writer/directors in fantastical movies is to not go so far into the realm of the absurd as to fall into stupidity and undercut the suspension of disbelief. The bridge scene did that for me. And yes, it's subjective, as in the awful BSG series finale.

    and to think, some people thought this was a movie based off of the Uncanny X-Men comic books.

    From wikipedia
    Males grow up to a body length of 1.4 metres (4 ft 7 in) long and weigh up to 85 kilograms (190 lb). Females reach a body length of up to 1.1 metres (3 ft 7 in) long and weigh up to 35 kilograms (77 lb). Tails can be from 0.9 to 1 metre (3.0–3.3 ft) long. The average Red Kangaroo stands approximately 1.5 metres (4 ft 11 in) tall. Accounts of sizes greater than this are not uncommon, with some large males reportedly reaching approximately 2 metres (6 ft 7 in).

    The Red Kangaroo's legs work much like a rubber band. The males can leap over 9 metres (30 ft) in one leap.
    I've seen up close a Western Red kangaroo that I reckon stood close to 2m in height and it had the build of a honed athlete - they literally have large biceps, triceps and shoulder muscles like a man that works out. I was sitting on the back of a ute (pick up truck) travelling along a firebreak on a farm and this beast just casually hopped along side us before losing interest and stopping for a good scratch.

    far cry from a pick up, more like a car with a bed instead of a hatch.

    Yeah I know but Ute here stands for utility vehicle which is generally any small vehicle capable of a 1 tonne payload on an open back.

    You also refer to a persons arse as a fanny....

    Sanctuary for homeless cats

    Craig Grant bought a tree farm far away from the city and turned it into a sanctuary for all the cats he has rescued. He lives there with the cats and provides lots of love, care and companionship. It’s hard to imagine that once he was not a cat lover and did not want cats until he met his son’s cat Pepper. He also got to experience what it is like raising a litter of kittens.“Over that time I learned that every cat had its own unique personality and it wasn’t long before the kittens were swinging from my curtains. I didn’t care. Something had changed… I didn’t want to give them up.”
    The condo life was not easy for the kitties, so Craig found a tree farm and settled down there for his fur babies. Over the next several months, he rescued more and more homeless and abandoned cats. The number of new residents kept going up, so Craig expanded the sanctuary to make more room for the animals.

    Teehee.

    Reminds me of the "for sale: one useless cat" dealie.
    "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

    The one in the pic looks like it not only has the means but the temperment to kick your fucking ass.

    ^^Kangaroos are known to actually 'kick your ass' they can easily balance back on their tail and seriously hurt you..apparently they're also known to claw out your gut with the claws on their feet, but i've never heard of any such case.

    Hey now. I've got a Gyarados. Even bought him as a Magikarp from that shady figure at the PokeCenter.
    Think he is lvl 23 or 24, only knows bite. So he ain't killing anyone yet.
