I'm thinking more of the forum where a few people joked about murdering Obama in the most informal and nonsense talking part of it and the Secret Service contacted the forum owner about it, so be careful!
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Ooohh, what are they going to do? Kidnap us in some clandestine operation and whisk us off to some secret torture facility or breach our countries sovereignty and take me out with a drone attack, pfffhh... as if!

Wait, a second some body is at the

Sounds like an urban legend, like the "every phone call monitored" thing.

EDIT - I'm not saying the "every phone call monitored" thing isn't technically feasible with computers now. But when i first heard it in the 80's it sure as shit wasn't.

THIS?!?






Also it would be a lot more trouble if the forums was US hosted, but I have no idea what the Secret Service can do abroad. This has been your friendly 'watch your fucking back out there' not-paranoid advice bureau.

Overall, I rather liked Skyfall.

I do think that the movie is meant to slip a bit of irony past most people - all the surveillance and precautions in the world and a five man team still nearly murdered everyone at a high level, top secret government meeting. What M was saying - that putting money and time into agents like Bond is kinda sorta true. The technology, the drones, the gadgets, they don't replace human intelligence or information gathering.

But we sure as fuck don't need more of James Bond, we need people who can build good things - not just destroy them while looking good.

Javier Bardem was a terrific villain. Anton Chigurh still rules, though.
