That’s kinda debating 101 isn’t it? Indeed it is. But we're not a debating club that requires all to follow certain rules and procedures. We're a site dedicated to a fantasy series/author, which also has a place for discussion of, among many other things, current events. So it all depends on ea...

Yeah, Z, it sounds like leaving is the best thing for you. Nothing, especially talking politics on an online forum, is worth risking your health. I'll miss you though. I enjoyed your Donaldson posts. "Lord Foul with a sledgehammer" is my all time favorite. :D Take care of yourself. :thumbs...

Ha, shall I made a new forum for Musicals and make you the Mod, HLT? I never saw Hamilton live, but during the mist of the pandemic I was introduced to it while watching it on Disney+, and me and my wife have been hooked on the soundtrack ever since. Got us through a few months of the pandemic. Awe...

I didn't see a topic about the musical anywhere. And it didn't seem like it should go in Vespers, at least I didn't see any other musical there after a checking the first several pages (lots of RIP posts though which is depressing). Anyway, I finally saw Hamilton this weekend and it was really reall...

Z, I think it's more about semantics and blanket statements that offends people. I'm guilty of doing it plenty of times, especially about the catholic church regarding how court settlements and news stories have revealed how a large amount of clergy and some members have denied and covered up what I...

I really like Yellowstone. "Is this your cooler?" :lol: I hope I haven't asked this here before but in the very first episode, John Dutton drives up to a car crash involving mining equipment. And in the opening credits there are images of strip mining and oil drills but there are no storyl...

Awww, shucks. You all are a crepuscular bunch of formicating puissants! You do know "puissants" is a compliment, right? :) No niggard are you, Wayfriend, to give to the Watch your wise literary skills. :D I'm two away from the KW 20 year club. For the past 20+ years I've been working in I...

Do the official debate rules that Syl once tried to promote and enforce in the Tank take care of all these questions and issues?

I don't know, I didn't read them a the time. Seemed boring to me.

Nice!

This is a picture with the official and exact quote from Jay before he deleted the Tank. https://i.ibb.co/L8NTJqw/Jay-Tank-quote.jpg I might have paraphrased it a little bit though... Deleted some swears... Ok, I really can't remember what he said, honestly. And it's probably not what he was wearing...

Thanks Z!
Your brake analogy clearly let me understand what you were saying.

I happened upon a vid about the Dodo.
Enjoy!

Damn-it. I lost.

Scientist, "This doesn't seem right. The Dodo keeps growing larger than it should and just ate Dr. Williams! Fritz, you gave me the "Raphus cucullatus" DNA sample correct?" "Raphus cucullatus. Yes. Or maybe it was Gastornis geiselensis? I'm not sure. Too many syllables. It h...

What if they taste like chicken?

It's the quality of the remaining members that are still posting, not the quantity.

I don't care what the new KW site will look like.
Nothing will ever be better than the Terry Brooks Hack Team site change prank on April Fools Day.

Hey now. I remember ya read — and even seemed to appreciate — my post re: Marquette U's Tolkien Archives.

Ok, once every three years I read a link.

What does an amateur political pundit making politically incorrect statements about the political topic of racism have to do with religion and spirituality? Why is Wos the only person on the Watch allowed to post about politics? Agreed. All Wos does is posts links without making comments. Is he/she...

I'm only a casual DC comic reader.

Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is awesome though.

Kingdom Come was fantastic.


And anything with Catwoman by Jim Balent.
