It also looks like the creator is using a screen shot from GTA Vice City. I remember driving by that club many times on the beach half of the city.
Thank You! I was thinking the same exact thing. I know that club, and those sims are obviously being made to look like they are "working" at the club. They are dressed quite appropriately if that is the case.

I just want to take this opportunity to say that I, for one, appreciate the fact that PMBD is not one of those forums where everyone is so nice and sweet that it causes diabetes. I thrive on intelligent discussion. The people here may not be all smilies and rainbows, but I like it that way. I feel that people who over-use niceties are often very fake, and they will turn on you without warning simply because you didn't live up to their level of fake niceness. The people here are intelligent and even when they don't agree with each other, the disagreement is usually respectful and purposeful. I can't say enough how refreshing that is.
Also, in response to the claim that PMBD doesn't notify other companies of TSR's wrongdoings, several Disney execs will be receiving a well-stated letter, with links and screenshots of many of the copyright infringements being perpetrated at TSR. I would post a copy of the letter, but I think it's better not to divulge the contents of it publicly, because I don't want TSR to know which crimes they need to cover up.
If you can't reason with a bully and you can't physically take him in a fight, then get a bigger bully to beat the shit out of him.

The Little Mermaid was one of my favorite stories when I was little, because it showed that there aren't always happy endings and the knight in shining armor wasn't going to come and rescue you just because you're a beautiful princess. In the original story, the mermaid doesn't get the love of the prince she desires and is turned into sea foam. It's very sad, but it taught me not to expect someone to come and rescue me and make all my dreams come true. I learned that you have to count on yourself. Disney's version completely misses the point, and further convinces little girls that they are princesses and that a man will ultimately make them happy, which is total bullshit.

I think finding the right therapist is just as important as finding the right meds. Different people respond differently to both these things. I went through years of trying to find the right meds that work for me, and the right dosage too. I spent just as much time trying to find the right therapist. Someone who listens and responds without judging me or making me feel like a mental defect. Not someone who sits there while I talk and only asks "how does that make you feel?", then charges me $150.

I saw Patton Oswalt talking about this very thing in his comedy special last night. He said he doesn't like taking his anti-depression meds because he feels like he needs his depression sometimes. It calls to him and says "please take me out somewhere and play with me, please. Don't keep me cooped up in here all the time. I need fresh air and sunlight too." He also self-medicates with scotch, the internet, and pot. Aside from the scotch (must have rum instead), I'm right there with him.

Same here. I'm an artist by profession and the meds do eat away at my creativity. Sometimes I need to be a little dpressed. It gives me an edge that I don't seem to have when I'm on meds. I am supposed to take them everyday, but often I don't and it takes 2 weeks to get through 1 weeks worth of meds. Yeah, they keep me from banging my head on the wall, but they also keep me from having any intense emotion at all. And you gotta have some intensity to be even a half decent artist.

That is so bad, I am stunned. Why are their heads so big? You can clearly see part of the real person's neck at the bottom of that horrible copy/paste hackjob. Why is their skin so dark when we know the Weasleys are pale as ghosts, and with red hair, not retna-searing neon orange. The real person's body is the same person used twice. It could be anyone's body. That part creeps me out too. But the saddest thing about it is that they want money for this hideous thing, and that there are sheeple who will actually pay for it.
And whoever made that awful version of Snape needs to be taken out and slapped with a herring.
