Unpopular movie opinions...
People enjoyed Wayne, and Bogey though because they portrayed an individual that many of us want to emulate. I think it was that kernel of moral individualism (Gary Cooper, and Gregory Peck play the same kind of characters at times) that they each expressed in their own way, especially when it...- Tiller

Long Haired Lyndon
Didn't Mike Wallace do an interview with Johnson on his ranch, where Johnson did nothing but talk about all his social programs until Wallace brought up Vietnam? Then Johnson became visibly angry, especially after Wallace said that Vietnam was a large part of his legacy. I can't find it on the...- Tiller

Long Haired Lyndon
Yeah, from what I've heard Lyndon kinda went a bit nuts after he left office. He was always worried about his legacy, and was disturbed that he would be most famous for escalating the Vietnam war then anything else. Supposedly he began to drink very heavily, and smoked a lot in his retirement...- Tiller

Dried up patent leather
A bit off topic but wasn't plastic being mass produced in the 20's? I thought it was one of the many things that came into its own in the "roaring twenties". I doubt it was used that often for footwear back then(if at all), but I think many trinkets were made of plastics in that time.- Tiller

Unpopular movie opinions...
lol. Very true. One of the last well made films I actually saw was Toy Story 3, and that's about a 50's cowboy doll coming to terms with the fact that children grow up. Somehow I think a nasty sex scene would have offset the tone of the entire movie.- Tiller

Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters
Yes that's them. Specifically we are talking about the trust fund children, and those annoying "older" individuals who have the whole "Mommy and Daddy are going to take care of me until I'm all grown up when I'm 35" act down pat. I'm sure you've seen the kind, attempting to mix whats trendy with...- Tiller

Unpopular movie opinions...
Maybe it proves I have more issues then I'd like to admit, but I've always laughed when it came to Hartman. There are things he does to Pyle which are of course a bit upsetting to see, but the rest of the time I can't help but laugh when he starts running his mouth, especially when he first...- Tiller

Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters
The only reason I've known any is because I used to work in the Adirondack Mountains during the summer, which seems to attract their kind during the summer (never any other time of the year from what I heard). They would show up acting like a group of snotty punks, thinking that they were better...- Tiller

No More Compliments From Those Who Were There
With the last WW1 veteran in the states dying a few weeks ago, I think it's safe to say that we will have at least one WW2 vet around for sometime after most of us think. With that said though it is indeed a sad time for many of us. My Grandmother recently passed away in February, she was 89...- Tiller

Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters
Hipsters usually get offended when someone responds to their antics. They are like the proverbial six year old who moves his finger closer and closer to his sibling yelling "I'm not touching you!", and then starts crying when the sibling punches them in the face, usually screaming "They hit me...- Tiller

Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters
If I may be so bold, the vintage and hipster subcultures are anything but kindred spirits. On this very board there are many members that I respect, but have nothing in common with outside of clothing interest. Many people here are philosophically/politically on the exact opposite side of me...- Tiller

If you had a chance to travel through a TIME MACHINE for a WEEK? where would you go?
lol Yes I meant the centennial. I've read some things about the bicentennial, such as the Bicentennial Freedom Train, that I just had it in my mind when I wrote it. Thanks for the catch, I'll fix it.- Tiller

I'd like to go back and shoot that SOB John Wilkes Booth, before he arrived in Ford's Theater. I think American history would have changed greatly had Lincoln survived, instead of power being turned over to the politically impotent Andrew Johnson. Of course if the multiverse theory of time is...- Tiller

Return of the Broad Brimmed Hat
Damn hipsters getting all the credit again. No one notices the vintage/neotrad/retro extremist/ leave me alone I don't like labels but I do love hats/ vintage inspired subculture, oh no it's always the hipsters! :mad: ;) :D With that said isn't it funny that in New York hats are being called... -

Pretty interesting video
I must admit that I have never had a tame rabbit before. Everyone I've ever had has been the result of a hunting expedition, usually one my father has gone on since he like rabbit more then I do. Wild rabbit can of course taste a bit gamy, but if cooked right you don't even notice it. My Aunt...- Tiller

How popular is the fedora in 2011? Are hats seeing a resurgance finally?
I think his point is valid in the general sense. If you look at people our age (20-30 crowd) today, and compare them to say the early Generation Xer's, the Millennial Generation have a higher interest in fedora hats then the Xers. This is only my gut feeling (and God knows I've been wrong many...
