Demolition Man....THIS is what I think....

[Captain Mike]

With ALL these "so-called" studies on obesity and such, THIS film really brings my thoughts home on the subject.
Anyone else?

Ahh, nothing like a blown-up grainy pan-and-scan squished video with the sound screwy to the point that Dennis Leary sounds like he's coming off a helium inhalation.

That said, I mostly agree with the sentiment given by Leary's character (and I actualy kind of like that movie) and it's a problem I have with the more extreme ends of the political left. They want to baby-sit and hand-hold everyone and use government to make us all feel safe.

But if someone wants to, I dunno, eat themselves into a grave that's fine. Let people do whatever they want. It's interesting that Liberals are all for legalizing pot yet want to ban substances that could make you fat like transfatty acids and HFCS. (Though both are awful substances we should do without.)

Putting taxes on fatty foods, pops and such is just stupid and extreme, banning fatty foods or such. Ugh. Just let people do what they want. If there's a chemical or substance that is unhealthy (again, like TFAs or HFCS) then, sure, restrict or ban it. But you know if they could the more extreme fringes would ban as much as they could to "keep us healthy" even if it's something that's not, technicaly, "bad for you." Hell, put all the warning labels you want on foods that are unhealthy, but the Liberal's, extreme, paradise wouldn't be too much unlike San Angeles. Which would just be bad.

Still gotta know what the fuck is it with the three seashells.

Still gotta know what the fuck is it with the three seashells.

What? You don't know how to use the three seashells?

 

[Aeon]

He doesn't know how to use the three seashells?!

 

[Yoda]

I just so happen to be browsing TBBS from the toilet right now... ya know, pass the time nice and productive-like and uhh... I don't understand the three seashells either

A little help please?

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

Stallone once said that he was told exactly how the three seashells work. He's probably lying (or was BS'ed) as there's no way this would be sanitary or even safe, in any way, shape or form:

Spoiler: seashells

Basically you use two of the seashells as 'pinchers' and scrape what's left with the third.

Again, I'm sure this was bull. I always assumed that the seashells actually contained a form of miniature sonic generator that cleaned you out like a Trek sonic shower would.

 

[Checkmate]

Shell one: Rinse.
Shell two: Dry.
Shell three: Powder.

Given that the future was supposed to be ultra-clean and tidy and that the sea shells in community bathrooms seemed to be, well, communal I doubt this is how they worked, as it'd contrast with that ideal.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ I guess in that case, all shell would break loose.

Shell one: Rinse.
Shell two: Dry.
Shell three: Powder.

Shell four: ?
Shell five: Profit!

You know I am pretty sure we have reached the pinnacle of feces wiping technology. No mater what marvelous advances still await us in the future I am pretty sure there's always going to be a roll next to the commode.

Well of course toilet paper has improved over the years. It's softer, some are scented, some have lotion in them, more sheets more roll, more plys, more stability to gunk up your elbow pipe and, somehow, last forever in your septic tank!

And, I'm sure, ass-wiping technology will improve down the road. Sooner or later we've got to hit something "better" but I think we're centuries away from it. I mean, do you think after taking a deuce Picard reached for some TP? No, he probably reached for a laser/beam device with a casing shaped, oddly, like an obscure toy made in the late 20th century.
