The jingle just randomly popped back into my head a couple of days ago. I thought it could be a little relevant to this place, hence the title.

I even had a set of these. Lost most of them when moving, though.

And yes, they were real metal.

Go ahead, create your own website. Start getting popular with free information sharing with zero censorship.

Oh no! All of a sudden you can't process payments because financial institutions will no longer let you, so now you're going to have a hard time expanding your bandwidth and handling the web traffic by paying for servers.

What's that? You got enough money together where you can just buy your own servers and handle all that traffic?

Oh no! All of a sudden you can't get donations anymore because all the sites that process those things have banned you because hate speech or some bullshit.

What's that? You we're able to get the money together independently to keep your website on line and have your private servers run?

Oh no! You've been deplatformed! The ISPs closed your website down by taking away your domain name.

What's that? You created your own website on your own servers running on a network outside the US?

Oh no! Now the search engines are taking you off their search results, and if you don't know what the website is and directly to look for it, you can't connect to it!

What's that? You have a big enough following who privately donate to you directly so that you can keep your website going on a server outside the US, because everyone is censoring you?

Oh no! You've been named in a lawsuit by the ADL and SPLC, they want you to provide all the information about your donors, who goes to your website, and so forth. They promised they weren't going to use that info to dox people, even though they have no legal reason to want that information, but now you going to have to go to court to fight and keep your user information private.

What's that? You won the lawsuit and were able to keep all your information private?

Oh no! Now some DA with direct connections to the ADL and SPLC are charging you with conspiracy and saying that you are an accomplice to hate crimes, hate crimes that have not even been proven to have even taken place, and they are going to get a warrant to get access to your information servers website and everything else, but they totally promise that they aren't going to make that public, and now you have to go back to court again to fight this and to get an injunction to even give up that information before the cops can come steal it. Good luck with that! I'm totally certain that they aren't going to leak that information.

But yeah, other than everything that was mentioned above, you are totally free to start up your own website.

Weird, but okay. Thanks for the straight answer. I appreciate it.

What the fuck is "the blob" here? You clearly don't mean the classic monster movie.

All that usage of a slang term I've never heard before, and Urban Dictionary is NOT helping.

And what's worse, no comments are explaining it either, so I have to ask!

I check here almost every day, and I have NEVER heard this one before.

Like all those Doritos in the 2009 Ghostbusters game?

Still the greatest Ghostbusters video game ever made, BY FAR, but I hated those constant Doritos logos.

And I normally love those chips.

The entire reason it's best to pirate Dragon Ball Z is because every single official release is crap in some way.

Oddly enough, there is a wonderful Blu-Ray of the original Dragon Ball, but it's only available in France, of all places.

Were this franchise to get that level of quality in an official release of anything pre-Super, it would be an instant must-buy. Alas...

Pattinson is a very good actor. I'm fine with him.

The rest are deal-breakers.

Wow, that's weird. I played a Youtube video on another win and it worked fine.

It was from a smaller channel, though.

It's a setting each channel has. If it's on, no one can embed.

This is why some videos work here and others don't.

The 2005 movie is a guilty pleasure of mine. I admit it has a lot of problems.

The 2015 movie is just plain bad.

The 1994 movie may have had zero budget, plus they never told the actors they had no intention of releasing the movie, but from what I hear, all the actors GAVE THEIR ALL in their performances to make up for everything else, and that fact alone makes the movie worth torrenting. Since there is no official release and all.

Remember when the text scroll got louder the bigger the letters were?

Great touch.

And you misspelled "misspelled."

(Guys, I was just noting irony...)

Cool.

I'll be back in two or three years to remind you how badly your comment has aged.

Fucking doomers...

If I recall, it was originally created FOR Reddit, to be their image host.

That explains a lot...

A shame these get so few upvotes while doomer posts get so many more.

Reportedly, the writers of the movie wanted to bring Scorpio back to be the villain, but for whatever reason were not allowed to, so they created Russ Cargill instead.

But they still brought Albert Brooks back to voice him, and he did a great job.

I was raised Lutheran.

I left the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod because they are also pulling crap like this.

I am still a Christian, just so I'm clear. I've just walked away from that particular institution.

My Episcopalian brothers and sisters, you should consider doing the same.

Watch as a move that is even a micro-iota in Israel's favor get ten times the upvotes from panicking doomers.

Because you are either perfect or worthless.

Fucking autistic mindset.

Not you, you're fine.
