how's life I'm referring to the fact that you'll find people on IMDB championing classics like "Alien from L.A." or that one film with Nick Swardson playing a porn star.
I've forced myself away from the internet comments for this fiasco and it has made me happier for this sitch.

waiting for Cliven Bundy to offer his support, pointing out that nowhere in the Constitution does it say an 80-year old misogynist, racist, wrinklefarm can't own a historically mediocre franchise

BTW can I just say I think "We Are One" is kind of cheap and stupid even if well-meaning, and I hate how they already had TV spots using it ready to go for last night's game

i'm down w/the sentiment but the execution felt less grassroots and more like a really slick ad campaign, like let's take this incident and boil it down to a three word catchphrase as quickly as possible.

yeah the "we are one" was kind of lame as far as "statements" go, but imo just making any "statement" was enough at that point

only beef with boston strong is I read that shirts were being sold under pretense that profits were donated but were not

they were prob donated to bostonians tho

good point. i am totally down with it now.

Would we otherwise expect a city to be "weak" a year after a terrorist attack at a sports event? I get that it's a trauma, but it seems like such an easy self-pat on the back for something that didn't directly impact most people in the city. Three deaths and 140 injuries.
― Doritos Loco Parentis (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 30 April 2014 19:07 (ten years ago) link
sry injury number was low but same idea
hurting if i even meet you im going to literally beat u up then u will understand what boston strong is all about

they shut down an entire neighborhood for the manhunt iirc
― the glimmer man (Sufjan Grafton), Wednesday, 30 April 2014 19:08 (ten years ago) link
it happened at a major public event
― idontknowanythingabouttechnlolgeez (waterface), Wednesday, 30 April 2014 19:14 (ten years ago) link
the whole city shuts down that day
you can imagine for a moment if you stop being a dick, how scared people would be. not just adults. kids, teenagers. have some compassion.
lol if by "entire neighborhood" you mean "5 towns and 60% of the city of Boston"
I am pretty cynical about BOSTON STRONG seeing as I brought it up here and all but I'm at least sensible enough to leave it at "I am pretty cynical about it" partially because I know someone who had her foot blown off and it seems beyond evil to be overly cynical about her actual missing foot
― chillin' on an "awesome pretzel" hoagie (DJP), Wednesday, 30 April 2014 19:15 (ten years ago) link
exactly. and even seeing it all (from a distance) happen at locations where you've been is scary and justifies a confidence building campaign.
― the glimmer man (Sufjan Grafton), Wednesday, 30 April 2014 19:16 (ten years ago) link
did not mean to play things down with "entire neighborhood". I wasn't there, and I just remember how surreal everything that took place in the final neighborhood also was.
