Gato, what's UD stand for, please? Only thing that pops into my head is urban dictionary

My guess would be Urban Decay. The makeup brand.

Does a buzzer go off if a 50-year-old woman approaches an Urban Decay counter? LOL. I

I have no idea~!!!!

LOL!

Not Urban Decay ${#emotions_dlg.laugh}$

For anyone interested there is a good article in The Atlantic on The Interview.

OK, I'll be the one to ask...if UD is not Urban Decay, then why not tell us what it stands for? Surely you knew, when creating the siggie, that people would wonder, right? Wink

I'm not sure if we're not supposed to refer to that dictionary because when it's mentioned the posts are deleted.

Another thought on this: It actually plays into the hands of the North Korean propaganda machine when we allow such things to immediately trigger us to spread aggressive vilification of our own government. There's a faction of people who take just about any topic and try to use it as a partisan political weapon. (This occurs no matter who happens to be in office at the time, by the way.) It's a terribly unfortunate phenomenon.

jmo, ymmv

Hi dooBdoo, and thank you also for again being a voice of reason and speaking the truth. I quit trying on this subject way back in the thread somewhere, but just came back to see if it was still here. You are so correct in your assessment, in my humble opinion. No matter what the subject, if there is any way to inject partisan poli^tics into it and put down ourgovernment, it will happen. Last night I questioned why one poster used the words our "new American government" instead of calling it what it is, the current administration, and I was chastised for "mocking the poster" among other things. I asked a simple question and was given my "comeuppance" for doing it. And the question was never answered.

I also tried to post an article last night on another thread and had to go back and edit it to get rid of the red "not allowed" comments from the PTB. May I say that I think it's a sad state of affairs on this board that we can apparently use the name of any American pres in history except the current one in our posts. It makes me sad. ${#emotions_dlg.confused1}$

Hi Kittymom, not always true. For literally years, you could not use the name Bush in any form on this BB. Suddenly it's allowed again. The same for the guy that was VP during that administration. I guess the Webbies figure that the current guys in office are too hot of a topic The initials of the previous president are still not allowed here, I found this out a few days ago. Guess it's considered swear words.

there is a time and place for the US to show its might. A movie is not it. Putting innocent people in harms way whether there is a perceived threat or not, is not the venue to show NK that we are not afraid.

As I've been reading other reports and comments from the general public, the majority of people would not go see the movie and do not think that we as a country need to show NK that we are not afraid. We have terrorists in this country already living among us and it wouldn't take but a minute for any of them to show up in a movie theater with guns ablazin' to show us that they are not afraid. Need I remind anyone that 2 Russian men were living here off the radar until they set off a bomb in Boston during a marathon? We just don't know who is here on a work Visa or as an illegal but has connections to NK and can use this dumb movie as their platform.

Sony, or any Hollywood producer, should not be making movies under the guise of comedy about evil people who are still living and would love for that to be the matchstick that sets off WWIII.

I'm done with P.C. Just say what you mean and mean what you say. It's easier.
