[Raketemensch]

Those of us who are writing German are going to feel pretty dumb if he doesn't speak German.

I actually don't speak German, I speak Spanish, but I do have a great fondness for Wagner and strudel... and Elton John??

Raketemensch, please answer the following question, but carefully consider your response, as our future dealings on this site may depend, in large part, on how you respond to this:

Now that the date in the "future" when Doc Brown brings Marty to October 2015 to do something about his kids has passed, we're left wondering about the ethics of time travel and knowing too much about our own futures. Crispin Glover thought he knew enough about his future to argue with Bob Gale and Bob Zemeckis over the implicit insinuation at the end of the first film that money=happiness, and found himself subsequently left out of the sequels. 2015 came and went without hoverboards, although we have these annoying, self-immolating "hoverboards" (with purposefully used "") everywhere. My college recently banned them over concerns about safety, and safety is something that never factored into the plot decisions surrounding the Nordberg character in the Naked Gun films. My son asked my wife this morning, "what's sperm?" and while we didn't tell him what it meant, I was reminded that when I first watched The Naked Gun, that's when I learned the sexual meaning of "Nice beaver!" after Priscilla Presley hands Leslie Nielson a taxidermied castor canadensis. I'll be in Canada in July; we've booked a house on the beach on Prince Edward Island and I'm looking forward to bird-watching for hours on end, hoping to catch a glimpse of the aurora borealis the way Sean Penn recently caught a glimpse of El Chapo, leading to his being caught in a more literal sense. Sean Penn is a famous activist, actor, and wannabe journalist. His acting in some films, like Malick's The Tree of Life has brought tears to my eyes, but sometimes he's made me laugh until it hurt, "My dad's got a great set of tools, man." But, before he was famous, he played Groovin' Larry in the 2nd installment of The Beaver Trilogy, as did Crispin Glover in the 3rd. So, the question remains, which installment of the Beaver Trilogy do you prefer, and why?

Hot damn- well I picked up the meaning of a few of those sentences... Terrance Malick, big fan, Thin Red Line is one of my fav movies. I saw the tree of life after breaking a bone in my foot and I was hopped up on percocet... maybe surprising to note that it did not help the experience. I was watching like, these dinosaurs appear in the middle of a movie about daddy issues and I couldn't help but struggle with that just a bit. Beaver trilogy... I haven't seen it but you've piqued my interest. I generally like the 2nd installment in trilogies because I enjoyed the Empire Strikes Back so I'm assuming the 2nd installment of the Beaver trilogy would be analogous to that move and the experience it provided. Can you freeze a beaver in carbonite? One thing that has kept me back from posting is that I use the ellipsis too much and I get self conscious about it... so I need to work on that.

YOhio is the funniest person on this board. He is also a mod, so you pretty much just stepped in a giant turd right out of the gate. Better check yourself, bro.

I was literally taking a drink while reading that. Had to control myself from spitting water everywhere.

finally, a guy around here who will tell it like it is.

Is he?

[New Mexican Disaster]

Is he?

In two posts you have crushed YOhio and all that he stands for. Ding dong, Dayton is dead!

YOhio is the most underrated poster on the board.

On a side note, can we trade in the SU character and get back the DDD persona?

Or maybe we can require SU to assume the character of DDD for a given period of time.
