[quote=”BlackKusanagi” post=114623]Shes shrinking down for Physique though. I hope she does well. Dang shame, but hope she does well.

Why??
thought Shannon was killing it at BBing shows!!
Say it aint so!![/quote]

Looking at her FB page, it seems she thinks there will never be another IFBB pro women’s bodybuilding show for her to compete in. The way things are going, she could be right.

Sad thing is, from bios of her I’ve read on other sites, she got into BB in the first place because the physique judges didn’t like her look. I definitely wish her all the best, but I hope she isn’t setting herself up to fail.

And if FBBing doesn’t die, maybe she’ll bulk up again (Who’s for a kickstarter to raise prize money?)

Not a surprise.  Peter David was clearly screwing it up from day one.  Hopefully Marvel has given him his last comic to fuck up.

Amen.  Seriously, what has he ever written that was good enough to justify his continued employment at the House of Ideas?

Oh, well.  RIP shulkie (yet again…).

Try The Escapist: http://www.escapistmagazine.com.  Astute commentary, intelligent forums, and the hilarious Zero Punctuation series of video reviews.  It's great.

Um, not to rain on anyone's parade or anything, but it looks to me like the page saying banned is under investigation is a fake.  Especially given that it's got a different URL and the last registered member's name is "PirateWages."  Shame.  I thought someone finally got the bastards.

Hello,  long-time lurker, few-time poster.  I just needed to get a few things off my chest.

The only things I torrent are all produced by corporations that don't need the money.

The reason these businesses do what they do is to make money.  You don't get to decide how much money anyone else "needs".

Last time I checked, studios that crank out blockbusters, and popular music artists don't need the money from DVDs or CDs.

They do.  That's why they sell them.

in my opinion (not sure if I'm allowed to have one though)

You can opine anything you want.  You can say you think that the Earth is flat, or that, in your opinion, 2+2=5.  Just because something is your opinion doesn't mean that you're not dead wrong and that nobody should call you on it.

Anyways, sorry for offending many of you by not allowing corporate America completely run my checkbook

Nobody is forcing you to write checks to "corporate America".  If you don't like something enough to purchase it, that's a perfectly valid choice.  But if you choose not to buy something, then you don't get to own it.  You can't have your cake and eat it too.

Also – theft is somewhat defined by need. A needy person is more likely to get away with thievery than another. For example, a street urchin who steals bread is less likely to be punished than say, a office worker who gets his kicks at night by stealing dvd players from other residents. (At least… I would hope so…)

Just because the urchin stole less or for a different reason, or because the police or prosecuting authority might decide to let him go, doesn't mean he didn't steal.  The desert of punishment is immaterial to the definition of the crime.

Also – piracy isn't theft. Theft, according to the dictionary, is "the act of stealing; the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods or property of another; larceny."

You're right.  It isn't larceny.  It's intellectual property infringement, which is actually quite a bit more serious.  Larceny is the taking of physical property, that is, someone's chattels. Intellectual property is the right to profit from and distribute one's own work.  When you copy a DVD, you're not "stealing" the movie itself, but you are infringing on the creator's right to distribute his own work as he sees fit, a right granted and protected by law.

Just great; love the backstory.  I can picture someone asking her why, with her newfound super strength, didn't she just rip up the grate and retrieve the medallion when she dropped it?  What would her answer be?

[detritus]

You don't have to force me to like this; she's pretty cute.  I like how you indicate the softness where her heels and hand are pushing into her rear.

[detritus]

I have to agree; that's good stuff.  FFF always makes his musclegirls completely adorable, and the embarassment here makes her even cuter.  A nice change from the usual surge of confidence that accompanies a muscular transformation.

Actually, none of the old morphs are there anymore.  A few years back, DtV purged a lot of enhancements, allegedly for copyright reasons.  The only thing in Scoundrel's galleries at DtV now are his drawings.  It's a shame.  Maybe someone still has them on a zip disk somewhere?  I remember really liking the one he did of Gillian Anderson.
