Bone The Fish - Most Recent Comments!

Who said you can't coin your own term? What is "Boning the Fish"? It's a moment. A defining moment when you know that your favorite TV Show, Celebrity, Movie Series or Music Group has reached its peak. That instant you know from now on...it's all downhill. Some call it a climax of sorts. We call it "Boning the fish". From that moment on things will simply never be the same.

Dunkin' Donuts - Random Topics
Thanks for the tip, bmovies. Dunkin' Donuts makes AWESOME donuts (of course) and pretty good coffee, but after your tip I'll definitely steer clear of their breakfast sandwiches. At least other chains' egg sandwiches manage to LOOK like they've been near a chicken at some point - I agree with you that it's a BAD sign when it comes out of a tube. Eeeeewwwww!!! -- Submitted By: (Mythigator) on August 21, 2009, 7:23 am

Dunkin' Donuts - Random Topics
I love their donuts but I HATE their breakfast sandwiches. One time I lost the use of my car (needed repairs and didnt have the money to fix it yet). So to get to work I had to rely on public transportation: A bus to take me to the train which took me to another bus which got me to work. At the train station there was a Dunkin donuts place. I was quite hungry that morning and had a long wait for the bus to take me to work, so I decided to buy not one, but two of their egg sandwiches. I realized I was in trouble when I watched the Dunkin Donuts employee pull out this long white tube which had a yellow dot in the center. I guessed that this was the egg for my sandwich. The employee took out a knife, cut off a couple of slices, put them on a couple of english muffins, then stuck them in the microwave. I was hoping it would taste better than it looked. Unfortunately I was wrong. It tasted just as bad as it looked. I took only a couple of bites out of the first sandwich before I threw the both of them out. Stay away from their breakfast sandwiches! (I know nothing about their coffee since I'm not a coffee drinker) -- Submitted By: (bmovies) on August 20, 2009, 9:31 pm

Video Games - Random Topics
I think that it's more then the Wii being hip. I think it's that video games themselves became mainstream. Back the day, if you needed help with an NES or SNES game, you might have known or known of a guy at school that seemed to know just about every game. You'd talk him in a secluded location and it might feel weird discussing games at school. It wasen't that no one had the systems, people had the systems, but video games were still somewhat nerdy. That was also when you might try and discuss video games with your parents but it wouldn't work out well. You might try playing some games with your parents but chances are you'd do a lot better then them and they wouldn't really know what was going on. It wasen't that they were dumb or something, they just didn't play video games much or at all. Now, we have situations where the parents are just as good at or even better then the kids. We have kids playing (for example) WoW with the parents or the parents being more interested in getting a Wii then the kids are! It's like with the Internet where people discuss popular sites as comfortably as they discuss anything else popular. It feels weird. As kids we wish that our parents would like the stuff we like so we could discuss it with them in a meaningful way. Now that it seems we (or at least the kids of today) can. However, I can't help but wonder if it's a case of be careful what you wish for rather then a dream come true. -- Submitted By: (ExplodingConsole) on August 10, 2009, 1:48 pm

Calvin and Hobbes - Random Topics
Calvin and Hobbes still rocks and always will. It's not fair to blame the strip for the bootleg "Calvin pissing on things images! Although I must admit that I like the one where Calvin is pissing on Osama bin Laden. Anyway, if you fall under the category of having your perception of the strip forever altered by the images of Calvin letting the whizz fly on various objects (which I understand, even though I don't fall under that category myself), then you need to place the blame where it belongs: On Bill Watterson's implacable inflexibility regarding merchandising. I respect his feelings about not wanting to dilute the strip's image, but his hard-line "just say no" stance only contributed to the market for bootleg images. Yes, there would have been bootlegs even with licensed merchandise, but Watterson's inflexibility only served to egg on the bootleggers. However, IMO, that's not enough to make the comic strip bone the fish. Calvin and Hobbes and their world still rock, and in quitting when he did, Watterson made sure it would stay that way. -- Submitted By: (Mythigator) on August 10, 2009, 6:12 am

Mad Magazine - Random Topics
It could be argued that adults aren't supposed to 'get' youth culture. The whole point of publications like Mad originally was that Adults hated them, thought they was subversive, etc. That said, Mad classic tought me a lot of useful lessons - A healthy disrepect for advertisers, awareness of cliches in entertainment, and even an understanding of contemporary history (through reading reprints of issues from the 1950s). I haven't really seen much of the magazine since the late eighties, but the fact that they now carry advertising doesn't sound good. -- Submitted By: (Eugene) on August 10, 2009, 5:45 am

Cartoon Network - Random Topics
Johnny T Bird said it best about the kind of cartoons they showed around 1995-1997 and watching old cartoons like "Top Cat", "The Flintstones", "The Jetsons", "Yogi Bear", "Dick Dastardly and Muttley", "Rocky and Bullwinkle" and Daffy Duck and Bugs Bunny.". I got cable tv for the very first time in 1996, and one of the channels I subscribed to was the Cartoon Network just so I could watch those kind of cartoons because those are the ones I grew up watching as a kid in the 1970s. Unfortunately, as Johnny says, "Alas, as these newer cartoons came out, they had to sacrifice the older 'toons.". Too true. I eventually gave up the cartoon channel because of that. Stopped watching it, then stopped subscribing to it. I dont know how other cable companies across the country provided cartoon network, but as for my cable company, they gave you a list of channels that you could seperately subscribe aside from the basic channels. Cartoon Network was not provided in their basic channel line up at the time. You had to subscribe to it separately if you wanted it. -- Submitted By: (bmovies) on August 9, 2009, 12:47 am

No offense, Robert, but I think THAT barrel had lined an outhouse instead of a well! Sad irony is that the first attempt "The Louds- An American Family" back in the early 1970's clearly demonstrated how cameras 24/7 proved to be catalysts for self-destruction to non-professional actors to the point that no network attempted to do another 'reality' show until MTV started "The Real World" back in the early 1990's.

Its sad to see this channel go down the tubes so soon. What really burns me is that I missed the golden years of TV Land. That is its first few years on the air when they aired real classics and retromercials. Because my cable company dragged its feet in adding TV Land to its lineup. As a matter of fact, they didnt add it until 2003, only MONTHS after I lost my cable tv (couldnt afforsd it anymore). I got my cable tv back in 2006 and by that time they had already begun its downhill slide (and had long since stopped airing "retromercials). Now its sad to see whats become of it. -- Submitted By: (bmovies) on August 5, 2009, 7:04 pm

Video Games - Random Topics
I find myself of two minds as to when (or if) Video Games boned. Some say things were better back in the 8 and 16 bit days. I think a lot of people will end up saying things were best when they were at the age where they enjoyed video games the most. Some say video games are too violent now. Video games were always violent. Just like movies were always violent. It's just that graphics and special effects are good enough now as to make the portrayal of violence much more graphic. Kids tend not to let violence in video games and movies bother them. It's the adults that get all upset all over it and are thinking stuff like "If that were real, think of all the people that would have died" or "Imagine being that guy (that they just showed get killed or horribly injured)." Some say video games are to dark or depressing now. Again, you'll probably find that they always were. It's just that you might notice it more now if you're older and can understand what they're portraying. That and perhaps you can't can't relate to the main characters as much and perhaps it's easier to see yourself as one of the characters that has something horrible happen to them and thus, the reality of it (so to speak) is that much more sad/horrible. Having said that, I do feel that when games made the jump to 3D and graphics started getting much better that something changed. Suddenly, it was all about graphics and cut scenes that felt more like movies. I think it was around then that games started going from being a hobby to a lifestyle (not all games of course but at least some). With Internet access starting to become more common, online play with PC Games and Mods were growing to be a norm. Instead of playing with your friends and the game being just what came in the box, suddenly, the vanilla single player game was just the beginning. Console games with Internet access are the norm now. In the 8 and 16 bit era, games had to stand on their own without mods or online play. People cared about graphics but game play was what made or broke the game. Graphics and/or cute or cool looking characters could draw you to a game, but if you played the game and it wasen't fun, I doubt you'd be playing it for long. It was more then that though. Back then, games were games. Something you had as a distraction. The jump to 3D made games more then just games. Suddenly, playing video games all day wasen't a bad thing (or at least, people didn't frown upon it as much). Suddenly, even adults were getting into them at the level kids and teens were. Granted, some of those adults used to be the kids and teens of the 8 and 16 bit eras. Okay, maybe nothing has changed. Maybe video games really were always like this (albeit without the online play and mods). Maybe it's just that there are so many of them now and releases so much more frequent that the problems that have always been there are that much more obvious as a result. If however, there was a point this started, it seemed to be around the end of the 8 and 16 bit era and the beginning of the 3D era. -- Submitted By: (ExplodingConsole) on August 5, 2009, 3:10 pm

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The - Random Topics
HHGG boned after the third book, but really took the plunge with the movie. It may not be coincidence that a movie of HHGG was in Hollywood "development hell" for twenty years when Douglas Adams was alive, and didn't actually get made until after he was dead. I feel that the people that finally turned this into a movie really didn't understand why the original material was funny, and largely ruined it in the attempt to adapt it. I would like to think that if Douglas had still been around, he would have been able to prevent this spoliation of his most cherished creation. The movie left an obvious hook for a sequel, but fortunately, I've heard nothing further about one. -- Submitted By: (Eugene) on August 5, 2009, 5:47 am

:( I liked Wind Waker. It's definitely different from the other games in the Zelda series, but despite its problems (too few dungeons, limited areas to explore, no real background stories on the characters, etc.), I enjoyed it. The soundtrack was nice. I agree that collecting the Triforce pieces was a chore; they should have had you enter dungeons to collect them, since it would have been a terrific homage to the first game. It would have also been more exciting than going to a glowing area over the water, making sure your boat is RIGHT ON TOP, using the claw to grab the underwater treasure chest, miss it, then turn around and try again until you finally get it. -- Submitted By: (Robert) on August 4, 2009, 12:50 pm

Completely agree, DolFan. Tagliabue was MUCH better as Commish. -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 3, 2009, 8:22 pm

Coca Cola Company - Random Topics
They dropped the biggest bollock ever when they tried to launch Dasani water in the UK. The papers soon had them on the run once they found out it was just purified tap water (like in the 'only fools and horses' episode where Del tries to sell bottled tap water), then once it got out that their purification process produced bromate, it was all over. They left with tail between legs and have never tried to relaunch it since! -- Submitted By: (ronster500) on August 3, 2009, 6:01 pm

Wal-Mart - Random Topics
My goodness Stephanie, tell us what you really think. White trash? That's kind of rough isn't it? Why do you hate people for trying to save a little money on groceries and necessities? Wal-Mart carries a selection of name brand and it's own Great Value brand. I am a long time subscriber of Consumer Reports and I've seen Wal-Mart brands match or even beat name brands in term of quality and value. I suppose People like Stephanie would prefer that a single store have a monopoly which would force us all to shop at the same place and pay whatever they want us pay. Stephanie, you wouldn't want all that "white trash" shopping next to you now would you? -- Submitted By: (JoeBagODonuts) on August 3, 2009, 5:34 pm

Kerrang! magazine - Random Topics
where to start here? What was once a great magazine covering Metal and rock, has become a trendy waste of paper which you just know to be steered by focus groups and committees. Definitely the decline began when it got bought by EMAP (now Bauer Media), all the great writers left, replaced by trendies that told the readers what they should like, as opposed to informing them what is out there and leaving it to the readers to make their own minds up. As time went on it became less concerned with whether the bands were good, and more concerned with how 'cool' they were. As demonstrated by their incessant bandwagon-hopping, grunge/ska-punk/nu-metal/emo/screamo... I give up! Worse than the NME and that is saying something! -- Submitted By: (ronster500) on August 3, 2009, 4:54 pm

Wal-Mart - Random Topics
I hate Wal-Mart, not because of the products but because of the kind of people that shop there. It's like a convention for whitetrash. -- Submitted By: (Stephanie) on August 3, 2009, 11:17 am

American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) - Random Topics
These people are the closest thing to Communism in America today. The ACLU's employees should be fired, and their leader should be rotting in a prison cell for supporting the infringement of others' beliefs. -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 2, 2009, 5:36 pm

Tattoos - Random Topics
Tattoos used to be a mark of individuality. Now they're actually a mark of conformity, since not only do millions of people now get them on a lark, but get mostly the same ones everybody else has! Now having a tattoo is a sure sign one is a mindless sheep who only likes what everyone else does. -- Submitted By: (DolFan316) on August 2, 2009, 5:05 pm

National Football League (NFL) - Random Topics
Roger Goodell (or as I call him, Badell) has got to be on the short list of the worst commissioners in sports history! It's like he's actively trying to ruin the NFL on purpose! If anything, he deserves his own BTF category! Where do I begin...how about his alleged "tough stance" on criminal thugs that turned out to be a myth? Or passing rules taking the contact out of the game? Or this silly insistence on having NFL teams in Europe? Or deciding the schedule absolutely HAS to be increased to 18 games for literally no reason? Or catching the Patriots cheating red-handed and literally going out of his way to cover it up? Or doing all of this while refusing to address REAL problems, like increasingly horrendous officiating? I'm on to you, Badell! -- Submitted By: (DolFan316) on August 2, 2009, 5:01 pm

American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) - Random Topics
When they started defending terrorists. 99.99999% of these terrorists in Gitmo, Abu Ghraib, etc. AREN'T AMERICAN! Yet the ACLU are defending these guys, trying to get them better prison treatment, US court dates, or outright freedom. You guys are the AMERICAN Civil Liberties Union, not freakin' Amnesty International! (Another organization that boned the fish long ago...) -- Submitted By: (Travoltron) on August 2, 2009, 4:59 pm

Profanity - Random Topics
Wow...I'd hate to have to constantly be around the people who think profanity rocks! Not that I don't indulge in it from time to time but I'm not going around telling people it's something that "rocks" either. Probably because I'm 36 instead of 16. -- Submitted By: (DolFan316) on August 2, 2009, 4:47 pm

American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) - Random Topics
The ACLU goes out of its way to protect the worst people in America while completely ignoring or even trampling on the civil liberties of those of us who aren't criminal thugs. I'm utterly convinced they want America as we know it destroyed. -- Submitted By: (DolFan316) on August 2, 2009, 4:35 pm

Sims, The - Random Topics
Way too much maintenance, especially in "Urbz: Sims in the City". If my Sim wasn't tired, he was hungry. If he wasn't hungry, he had to take a shower. If it wasn't that, he had to use the toilet. If it wasn't THAT, it was............ The point is, I couldn't talk to other Sims or be social because every second I spent playing that game was spent on fulfilling this guy's rapidly decreasing levels. MySims is much better. -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 2, 2009, 1:26 pm

Super Mario Bros. - Random Topics
Actually, in this case it does. After Nintendo came out with SMB3, they failed to restore the magical charm of SMB3 to future games. What we need is a resurrection of the NES and a Super Mario Bros. 4. If an SMB4 should be made, it should have what I suggested in my first comment here, plus the same power-ups and more. Remember in SMB3 we had Small, Super, Raccoon, Fire, Tanooki, Frog, and Hammer Mario/Luigi? SMB4 should have all of that, plus things like Boomerang, Sledgehammer, Cannonball, and Bullet power-ups. Sounds interesting, huh? -- Submitted By: (Marcus) on August 2, 2009, 9:35 am

Screamer videos - Random Topics
Day one, without a doubt. I hope the creators of these screamer videos realize that people with heart conditions could stumble on these videos, not knowing what they are, and could very well suffer a heart attack or another related problem. I myself have fallen prey to a screamer video, and let me tell you, it is not fun. It really does have a lasting psychological effect on you. -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 2, 2009, 8:54 am

Political Correctness - Random Topics
Political correctness is a crock of shit. It's almost funny how it protects certain groups at the blatant expense of others. PC is simply a tool that the ACLU and other Communist organizations are using to erode this country from the inside out. -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 2, 2009, 8:49 am

National Football League (NFL) - Random Topics
Commissioner Goodell is a pansy. No more "cheap shots" at quarterbacks anymore because pretty boy Tom Brady got hurt. I guarantee you if it happened to any other quarterback, this rule wouldn't exist. No more "excessive blocking" because of what Hines Ward did to that defender, along with the myriad of other "softening up" rules that were implemented. What's next? Do the players have to wear tutus over their uniforms now? Are we going to have tea parties at halftime? Boy, I can't wait for next season! -- Submitted By: (ScottyB) on August 1, 2009, 8:28 pm
