Ahh. Hence the saturation imagery of girl archers.


Republican primary candidate Congresswoman Michele Bachmann was exposed as being the submissive wife to the sacred dominant male that's doctrine in The Quiverfull Movement.
Not good for pulling women into the GOP or military, nevermind all the rape.

Now a fitness plan designed by a former marine...for future soldiers...a-HOO-ah!

The Hunger Games Workout: Katniss Everdeen's Fitness Comes To Life At New York Sports Club

Want to sling an arrow like Katniss Everdeen? It's no longer just a fantasy. Thanks to 'Train Like A Tribute,' a new class at one New York Sports Club location in Manhattan, the world of The Hunger Games is now available as a free workout for the general public. While the movie, starring Jennifer Lawrence, opens Friday, March 23, the class will be available until April 25 in New York, Washington D.C., Philadelphia and Boston, according to the NYSC press release.

Designed by a former marine (and current NYSC trainer) -- perhaps the closest correlate we have to a Tribute in this universe -- the class combines four strength and endurance training moves ripped directly from the book.

"You're getting a great workout," the class creator, Eric Salvador told the New York Daily News. "And you're competing against all of the other people in the class to 'survive,' which makes it really fun."

Competing? Luckily, the punishment for losing isn't death -- although the winner does get a mockingjay pin, like the one worn by Katniss in the book. Contestants complete in four different activities: a strength-training archery move called "Katniss Killers"; a ropes series that mimicks tree climbing, "TRX Rows"; interval speed work called "Fox Face Quick Feet" and "Peeta Presses" -- a strength training series using dumbbells. The exercises are set up at work stations around the room and class participants must complete one series before moving to the next station. The 'Tribute' who makes the most laps around the room wins bragging rights and the book's famous pin.

A cautionary tale: When I was a boy I had a guinea pig, so inevitably I thought "Everyone in Papua New GUINEA must be a right PIG", so when I grew up and went to Papua New Guinea (as one does) I felt powerfully compelled to tell my hosts there that I thought they were all PIGs, which is how I got decapitated.

Personally, I blame the CIA.

My op seems to have been trolled away into posts about me again. Typical.

Reminder: Hiding reality with fiction, co-opting girls, normalizing and justifying weapons,, Scholastic, CIA media, hunger, US history of oppressing hungry poor women, names, 'Mockingjay,' 'Operation Mockingbird.'

Your response to 'G Force', Mac?
You brought it up. Follow up on the thread I handed you.

You are a person. You are not a troll or a bot or some random theorist who we'll never consider again. Most of the people reading this have been taking your thoughts and theories into consideration for several years. How can we consider the content without considering the person behind it? What do you take us for?

[Hugh Manatee Wins]

That was trolling, Mac. Not a discussion board post worthy of a participating member.
If you have no point...

[MacCruiskeen]

What, and this ballsaching poppycock -

is not trolling?

[Wombaticus Rex]

LMFAO @ the thought of "moderating" this.

These posts invariably become about Hugh himself, but I believe that's out of genuine concern/empathy/frustration with, as MayDay puts it, the person.

I will say this, guys: Hugh is Hugh is Hugh. Yes, he really believes it. No, you're not going to convince him otherwise.

Based on that, just ask yourself if single-sentence posts matter. If repeating the same damn paragraph you typed to Hugh in 2008 matters.

Tempus fugit, memento mori.

[MacCruiskeen]

Tempus fugit

Damn right, especially when you're enjoying yourself.

memento mori

Death holds no fear for a decapitated man.

Oh, and Hugh: Vescere bracis meis.

I hoped that was a clear illustration of a keyword being hyped to minimize another one.

Ok, I'll spell out more of the dynamic of marketing a propaganda decoy to counter an 'epitaph effect.'

'Epitaph effect': When someone dies, their life story gets brought out in the coverage.
Since this can bring up old buried skeletons, the CIA psyops monitor system tracks the imminent demise of people who can dredge up "hostile information" they'd rather not have the recruitable kidz knowing.

Example-
Infamous CIA agent, Everett Howard Hunt, or E. Howard Hunt, was becoming known as the internet took off during the 1990s.
He was also getting sick and frail and likely to die kicking off the 'epitaph effect' which brings up Bay of Pigs, JFK, and Watergate.

So a decoy movie campaign was started about a fictional CIA agent named "Ethan Hunt."
Otherwise known as the 'Mission Impossible ' series starring Tom Cruise.
You might have heard of these movies.

I can give you other examples of this 'epitaph effect' if you've never heard of the five 'Mission Impossible' movies.

1. I've witnessed the polar opposite of Mac's LoLcat: at a friend's recent BBQ my parrot sat on a privacy fence as a cat looked on from the nextdoor neighbor's kitchen window. Orange Cat: Exact expression, plus very wiggly tail. Parrot: oblivious, happy, full.

2. God Bless Elizabeth Catlett and all the good she's done for the world, and thank you Hugh, for telling me about her. You are an inspiration.

C'mon. Hugh never heard of Elizabeth Catlett before he came across her obituary, and doesn't give a damn about her career or her art except how it might fit into one of his posts. She didn't exist at all for him until the last day or so. He's exploiting her, essentially, because her name happens to contain the letters "c" and "a" and "t" all in a row.

[Peregrine]

Ahh. Hence the saturation imagery of girl archers.

Apologies, I'm gonna derail a bit...
You know, this irks me to no end. Over a year ago, I developed an interest in archery & am taking classes starting at the end of April. Now it just looks like I'm jumping on the "fad bandwagon"

[Hugh Manatee Wins]

wow. Had to save that one. Another meme-reveral twist that would make Nadia Comaneci jealous.




Or a...cat...surviving a 19-story fall.





SO. My posting that the CIA doesn't want recruitable grrrrlll power kidz to know about Catlett makes me an "exploiting" eeeevil-doer?
Who...are...you...kidding?



Alrighty then!

Yes Mac, as one does I spent some time there when I grew up, but I would have thought it more likely you would have been served up as long pig. I suppose being headless ain't so bad once you get used to the braille keyboard.

A very elaborate non-denial. Thanks for that.
