'Serenity'
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 had never heard of Whitey Bulger before yesterday. I'm not up on my Irish crime lords, I guess.
It's impossible to overstate what a big deal he was here, back in the day. Not only was he a huge crime lord, but his brother was the state Senate president for yonks.
Midwestern hipsters! Fucking newcomers.
Or locals who've adopted it "ironically". See also, PBRs.
That sounds like an epic drama for the big screen, Jesse! "Imagine a world where two brothers rise to power ..."

I can attest to this. "Where's Whitey?" has been a huge local pastime since he went into hiding.
Also, he was the basis for some of the background details about the Jack Nicholson character in The Departed.
Oh, they got him? Was that because of the FBI's appeal on the View to look for his girlfriend, or something else?
Yup, that seems to have been the key.
I seem to remember reading that it's the new big thing with hipsters in, I think it was, the Phoenix.
Oh, god. I was totally cornholing before it was ironic.
Weren't the Bolger brothers the basis for the show Brotherhood?

I think so. They just switched it to Providence, right?
What is cornholing again? The not dirty kind?
Oh, and in "things I don't know," what are Nerd Fighters? I'm seeing it all over, and I don't get it. You fight nerds? You're a nerd who fights?
Cornholing is throwing beanbags, apparently. What's the dirty kind?
