    Well maybe not him specifically. Cowards like him don't have the nerve to work with explosives.

    Did you watch the video or just read the title? It isn't political. The point of the video is not Trump or his kids....it is that people think a triceratops was killed by Trump Jr (he uses the name to distract people from the word they should be listening to). If anything the video helps illustrate the point that whenever the word Trump is mentioned some people turn off their critical thinking and refuse to listen to anything else that is being said, their minds have already been made up. This doesn't just apply to liberals. The same thing happens to some conservative when the word Obama or Hillary is mentioned.

    Google "Mark Dice". He is a conservative. He makes many similar videos where he asks simple questions, usually targeting people with liberal viewpoints, in the streets and makes them look ridiculous. While Mark Dice's video collection/YouTube channel as a whole might have a political leaning (to the right), many of his videos, including the one posted above, are definitely in the humor category.

    Also, the video format is a gag that has been done by many late night talk show hosts. It is a long established comedy skit. You might not find it funny, but that doesn't mean it isn't comedy.

    As for the ratings: you have expressed your displeasure with the removal of the ratings you are questioning a while back ago....and I have already given the reasons for their removal.

    :banghead2: I give up. You win. No more "Disagree", "Dislike" or "Not Funny" ratings on thread replies. They can still be given to the original post of a thread by members with more than 25 posts. Acceptable compromise?

    Woops, sorry, Mr Oinks, my reply above should have been directed to Mr Birdwatch... (damned painkillers - 4 stitches after slipping on a concrete boatramp the other day...)

    I have bought Acetone in Watsons in Cebu. I would have to guess that Watsons in Dumaguete would also stock it. It is in the nail polish section alongside the polish remover. It is Ceres brand and is labeled "Pure Acetone" in big letters. I've not seen a bottle any larger than a pint. Personally, I intend to check out the hardware that Brian Oinks put up as I use acetone and fiberglass from time to time. Thanks, Brian

    Yes but, when it comes to most of these Hollywood Clowns (AND MANY Politicians who live in their Ivory towers) it is better to;
