Did SFP force you into it in the Lunch Thread in fear of losing me?

Seriously, what the frick?

That looked more like a gang attack than a police raid.

Is the redhead cult woman the "make flowers on me" woman from True Detective?

ETA: did the girl choke him to death? I'm still trying to figure that out.

There's no way.

He just wanted some erotic asphyxiation.

No, he just got off better if she choked him a bit.

What annoys me about that show (well, one thing) is that much of the mystery, tension, and drama feels awfully forced.



"Hey mystery guy, what's your name?"
"Not gonna tell you"



(Insert important question)
-other character says nothing.



Something barely dramatic happens.
SUPER DRAMATIC MUSIC



Content of show starts to drag.

wasn't the app pointing to "choke"?

i think it's just to show how weird and impersonal sexual contact was there. it would have been better to have her get "fricking" and see if she'd go through with it, as a real test for her character

my guess is that she represents the denial/refusal to accept stage of grieving a loss. that really ugly/dirty scenario, all around, was just a reminder of how fricked up things are (remember it was sold as a way for her to get out)

5 stages of grief

1. Denial and Isolation

the daughter

2. Anger

Rick

quote:

3. Bargaining

???

quote:

4. Depression

Liv Tyler

5. Acceptance

this show has been total bullshite built on tomfoolery and only promising shenanigans

Depends on who is in the circle

What if a dude was spinning and it landed on frick and was pointing at another dude?

I was wondering that too and why it seemed to only land on the opposite sex.

Her girl-friend is definitely a huge slut though.
