Social Science Things that please me - Part 3

[Catfish Alley]

Wasn’t sure where to put this but this thread seemed the best place. A friend of a friend committed suicide and his funeral was today. I didn’t know the guy at all but a group of us met with the friend today and discussed things like depression and general stress of life. I don’t think I’ve had a conversation like that with guys in my almost 40 years. That’s the thing that pleased me. I think men are more in tune with things like this now.

Anyway, just wanted to say that a lot of people are good and will offer an ear and listen without judgment. Hell, be anonymous and talk on here.

The neg stigma associated with speaking out as a man has all but extinguished. It's now commonplace for men to talk it over.

Lots of angry wanking by right wing nut jobs if Gabbard becomes president.

In military parlance it's a dishonourable discharge.

By coincidence alone, I came across the Wikipedia page for this film, starring the insanely hot actress Amber Heard (former partner of Johnny Depp):

As it turns out, the screenplay was adapted from an Australian novel, written by BigFooty's own Final Siren (creator of The Squiggle)

Call me callous but I can't help laughing my arse off when I see Lady Gaga falling off that stage.

AFL players are sheltered. In the US, you have players more than happy to play in Detroit and Baltimore yet AFL players can't play in Adelaide because it's too much of a shithole. Don't nominate for the draft of a national competition if you can't handle being away from home.

John Elway doesn't like this
