  • A "your face" joke. Truly, yours is the soul of wit. Sava's the only person on this site capable of making those funny, FYI

    Too bad he left :'(

      That is a delightfully weird painting but Francisco Goya is the Old Masters standout for me:

        I'm saying, as a convert myself, that it is difficult to truly appreciate Catholic art without being Catholic. That is not to say that someone who isn't Catholic cannot value it, but there is plenty of stuff there that non-Catholics just will not understand. That has been my experience with it both before and after.
        WTF? There are so many things wrong with this quote.

        I may have go to bullet point listing of fallacies and biases in your posts.

          It probably won't be the last time, and it certainly won't be the first.

          • HC, what are your interests in non-U.S. sports?

            Soccer season will be pretty much over, as will rugby. If in the UK you may be interested in Twenty20 cricket match - always more fun to watch in the ground than on TV, tickets are reasonably priced and the game is far more active than the day games/Test matches. You'd probably want to book tickets in advance though.

            If that is as appealing as a gold banana dildo, then maybe try to get Wimbledon tennis tickets (last week of June, first week of July).

            Alternatively, consider dogtracks or banger racing - Wimbledon also offers such delights.

                  I'm not super interested in US sports to begin with, but I'm generally enjoy and am willing to try new things. Depending on how long the games are . If they aren't as long as a baseball game I'd probably give it a shot. I do like tennis, that sounds pretty interesting to go see. Thanks for the suggestion!

                      That actually sounds really cool and worth visiting.

                      • So far the list of things to see seems to include:

                        -British museum
                        -Some european sports game
                        -Random stuff around Rome and Italy like the Coloseum
                        -Louvre
                        -Some industrial museum in Paris or something? I think N53tor suggested it
                        -Normandy I think? I'm hoping to visit some interesting battlefields if I do end up going on this trip.

                        • La Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie, it's a pretty big science museum.

                          In London, the Natural History museum is pretty amazing (as long as you skip the gazillion bug collections), as is the Imperial War Museum.

                          In Paris, the Pompidou centre is a modern art museum, when I was there there were some pretty interesting exhibitions (Dalí and some other artist which was really amazing) which could be interesting if it's your cup of tea. If not, the building itself is a good view.

                            • I wouldn't diss everything right away, there's a lot of variety... I do find some stuff totally ridiculous, but others are really interesting.

                              The other artist that time was Bertrand Lavier, some really amazing stuff.

                                I've no interest in joining the circus, or being the subject of (justifiable) random attacks in public.

                                So no, I don't.
