Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I watched Hoarders! What do you want to discuss?
I think the cleaners literally having to use shovels in the guy's apartment may say a lot about how bad it can get.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Oh, hey, ita. I've found that well over 70% of the guys who contact me at my dating profile are in their mid twenties. It's flattering, but i remain suspicious.

I can take any more Lanterns.
So now I'm wondering if this was supposed to be "I can't take any more Lanterns." or "I can take many more Lanterns." Shall we vote on it? I say the latter.
Mwahahahahahaha!
Mine is an evil laugh

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Boy, the Lanterns are complicated. I had no idea.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How do you get to be a Lantern? Is there some screening process? Or could you end up with a Lantern who doesn't fight crime, but instead uses his powers to make a kick-ass model train set?

I watched Hoarders! What do you want to discuss?
I thought the two approaches in the ep last night were really interesting. I wish there was a follow up with the psychologist who was working with the woman. Because her approach really didn't seem to work at all in that instance (and, man, am I glad I don't have any hoarders in my immediate family because I would have been wayyyyyy more impatient than her son). And the perky organizer lady's did! At least in the short term.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Is there some screening process?
It used to be the ring would find you. It searched for the most willful person in the world. I'm surprised it didn't land on a toddler.

So I have no fear that a ring will seek out my lazy ass....

Coding and Sleeping
In addition to the Green Lantern Corps, there are at least seven other variations on the power ring, each connected to a particular color as well as a corresponding emotion from which they derive their abilities. The known variations of power rings are: red (rage), orange (avarice), yellow (fear), green (willpower), blue (hope), indigo (compassion), violet (love), and black (death).
So you can combine rage, willpower, and hope to create any other emotion. That's deep, man.
