Assassin's Creed Brotherhood oddity

Strange- in the Exit Stage Right mission, when you have to meet up with four junior assassins backstage at the Colosseum, they're all male - even though I don't actually *have* four male assassin recruits... On account of me having that preference for the private clone army of female ninjas...

Man haters? Well, no...

Have to agree with this (even if I loathe the phrase "social justice") - remember, guys, the patriarchy is designed to fuck us up too, by pigeonholing us and telling us what we should want and consider to be "success", rather than leaving it up to ourselves to determine what's best for us.

The Cruel Sea and First of The Few

Had on two movies as background yesterday and today that both need remakes despite being decent- The Cruel Sea, which needs a remake purely because it leaves out my favourite scene from the book (when some of the crew take charge of a frozen and deserted freighter), and First Of The Few because, for a biopic it's horrifically inaccurate (RJ Mitchell was a gruff working class bloke who died a year and a half after he does in the movie - and the Schneider rcing stuff could be so much better handled today...)

Guys confused and disappointed by Angelina Jolie news...

Right, so, it seems some guys are surprised and disappointed that Angelina Jolie would have that double-mastectomy "just" because of a "chance" of cancer.

If you are one of those guys who is daft enough to think that boobies come before health and life (and who also apparently don't get that the modern procedure only removes the milk producing glands, so most of the structure remains), then here is helpful visual guide for your understanding.
