Stoics are dumbasses.

Their philosophy is sound, but they are not sound. There's just as much dumbasses in Stoicism as in any ism.

I take what I like from Stoicism, and tell the rest to go fuck themselves.

The Doctor Who people have just announced that the new Doctor is going to be a woman. "The Fandom" immediately shat itself, and has been rolling around in it all day. Having been a fan since I was like 14, I have never given a single fuck about "The Fandom" until now. This shit show is glorious.

I like how people were complaining about liberals and political correctness when the show had a lesbian dinosaur woman.

I guess they're ok with having "exotic" characters around, but The Smartest Person in the Universe should be a man, dammit.

Also, I think a lot of the women who are upset had a crush on the Doctor, and now that he's a woman, that's just not working for them, which is hilarious.

The fandom are the worst and I know how this will go; If the stories are good no one will complain, if the stories are bad thry will blame the fact that it's a woman in the role.

I remember the old Target books had an introduction by some goober which gets into how he went to a sci-fi convention, and there were all these people dressed as Jedi and Klingons or something, and he got up and told them how stupid they were and that Dr. Who was the best show ever, and Teh Docter was the best most special person ever for ever in all of time and space. It was a little disturbing, actually. I wish I could find a copy of it. It's a perfect example of the pretentiousness that has infected "The Fandom" since way back.

I know little about the first two categories, but I firmly agree with the last one.

It's about 2 euros for a half-litre of ice cold Pilsner Urquell in a tourist trap.

And the food? I'm going to go out on a limb and guess mostly organ meats and tubers.

It's like a shit-tier mix of German and Hungarian cuisine.  So yes.  Lots of pork and beef products, lots of cabbage, lots of bread, lots of paprika.

Well... and mind you this is coming from someone who gets a McDouble and an ice cream cone from McDonalds at LEAST 3 times a week... entirely out of convenience, I assure you... that doesn't sound too shabby. So I'm going to choose to read that as "Lots of pork and beef products, lots of cabbage, lots of bread, lots of paprika, except it's terrible!"

Well, lets say its not the choice cuts of meat I'm seeing.  Which when the meal is like 70% meat is not great

The old Dr Who, back in the 80s, was pure Buldada.  We all loved it because it was AWFUL.

The crime here is not who is The Doctor, but the fact that they have a budget.
