No, I haven't seen It. Well, what kind of movie is it? A comedy or what?

It is an anti-war movie i guess. You could say its a dark comedy, but its not like there are many jokes in the movie or slapstick.
The Plot goes somewhat like this:
In the cold war an american general goes crazy and orders his entire fleet of bombers to drop nuclear bombs over russia. But the russian government has installed an automatic dooms day device which will destroy all mankind if any russian city is to be attacked ever.
So the american president and the russian military have to work together to stop the crazy general and his troops of carrying out the order.

Well, sounds VERY insane movie. But why did they call it "Dr. Strangelove?"

A stone cold classic, my second favourite film of all time (behind Bladerunner). It contains some outstanding performances, helped in part by the fact that apparently, none of the actors knew they were supposed to be in a comedy. The scene in which Major Kong details the contents of the bomber crew's survival kit is still one of the most surreal moments in film :D

Just a point though... I'm pretty sure anywhere you can watch it online for free is *not* legal, and therefore kind of against the rules of this forum, no?

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
