TOPIC: Yes. Yes.

- 5by5 | 5by5 at the Movies #3: A Slight Burglary: Glengarry Glen Ross
Merlin Mann and Dan Benjamin talk about Glengarry Glen Ross.
A circular object giving its owner the ability to get done everything that would have otherwise been put off to a later date.
When Earth's superheroes exile the volatile Incredible Hulk to a distant planet called Sakaar, the muscle-bound green monster is sold into slavery.
@Hotdogsladies & @danbenjamin - glengarry leads = femininity/object of desire (coloring in film & ornamentation).
But Internet outrage often says more about the commenter than the cause, and its deployment may do more harm than good, to the instigator and the issue.
After receiving a sudden surge of junk mail directed at new parents—even though my wife at the time was merely pregnant—I set out to explore the lengths companies go to spy on individual consumers. It was fascinating, and a little scary. For example, I discovered one market-research firm that put human spies in stores to follow every move a shopper made, and another company that secretly commandeered viewers’ televisions to show them commercials no one else got to see.
A celebration of Celebrity Baby Pr0n
Dan Benjamin and John Siracusa discuss Goodfellas.
The first adventure featured the Asgardian god Loki seeking revenge against his brother Thor. Using an illusion, Loki tricked the Hulk into destroying a railroad track.
The Avengers -- Thor, Ant-Man, Hulk, Iron Man and other heroes -- are ready to save the day from villains such as Loki, HYDRA and the Red Skull.
This incarnation can lift approximately 75 tons. This incarnation does possess the "madder he gets, the stronger he gets" ability but at a much slower rate since this incarnation has some level of intelligence and reasoning and would not "lose control" as easy as the Savage Hulk incarnation.
