The Lounge at the End of the Universe

anyone had a flea problem? the winter was so mild here minus a day of ice, the fleas and ticks are insane... its been off and on all summer cause I have been doing the chemical thing from the vet (where you put it on the dogs/cats spines) and it worked some... but keep coming back... Used flea/tick shampoo of all prices... from the cheap stuff at wal mart to the $25 (yes you read that ridiculous price right) from petco.

Now i just tried the Dawn soap in water trick... you mix it in a bowl without making the soap bubble up and apparently it attracts them and kills them.

I've sprayed my carpets, cleaned bedding, etc.. and for the last couple weeks its simply not working. I don't see them anywhere but on the dogs. Trying to avoid calling an exterminator cause I'll need somewhere to keep the animals for a few hours.

Figured some of you old timers have a secret trick... like putting pineapple on pizza and scaring them away or something... maybe a Doc Savage movie kills them in their tracks...

Well the board is still boggy and slow.

Not sure how practical it would be in your situation but nematodes are supposed to be great at killing fleas. Though they would need to be placed in grass outside.

I bought an expensive spray from the vets office. It was lemony and worked great. Can't think of the name of it now. Never heard of a home remedy that ever worked.

It was an okay first look, though given the lead time I am surprised there wasn't more completed SFX spectacle.

 

[Marvolo]

Yeah it looks like it could be good. A better take on the character than we got in Last Stand.

 

[Iceman]

I liked it. Good for a teaser and hopefully we get to see more in the next one.

 

[Lily Adler]

Dark Phoenix actually looked good. Please don't be another Apocalypse.

So they're going ahead with it? I guess it makes sense if it's already finished. Guess I was thinking Disney would just can the current line of movies, and start fresh putting them in the MCU as soon as possible. Given how much cash they forked over for Fox, and the potential sales of an X-Men - Avengers crossover.

 

[Lily Adler]

The sale isn't final is it?

 

[Marvolo]

The sale isn't final is it?

Its final. In June the shareholders of Fox and Disney approved the sale for $71.3 billion. The Justice Department approved the sale shortly after.

As for xmen, there was no reason to ****can the current Fox xmen films. Xmen and Fantastic Four arent going to get MCU films until Phase 5 at the earliest.

Feige was promoting the upcoming Avengers: Infinity War, and he was asked when fans should expect these Fox-controlled Marvel characters within the MCU. Here's what the producer/studio president had to say, when asked if the Disney/Fox merger is complicating plans for the MCU, indicating fans shouldn't be holding their breath for this to happen.

"No, because any of that deal would take a while to get going and years from whenever and if ever it happens. So, certainly it won't impact the five movies we've announced, and it probably wouldn't impact anything for a handful of years after that. Because really, we're not thinking about that. We're thinking of delivering on what we promised. Any movie, especially for any characters we don't have the rights to yet until someone tells us we do, would be even further after that."


X-Men and Fantastic Four Aren't Coming to the MCU for Years

 

[Teelie]

A lot of people have been flinging **** at the Dark Phoenix movie for months and now with the trailer out... and there is a lot more divisive comments than before. So many people were convinced this movie was going to be trash and now not as many are saying it and thinking it might be good.

Who would have thought it? Declaring a movie awful before seeing a single frame of it might not have been accurate.

Ah I hadn't heard the sale was approved by the Justice Department.

I agree the trailer looked intriguing. I hope it's better than Apocolypse too.

The forums seem to be responding faster now that whatever was going on with that hack has been resolved.

Watched THE HURRICANE HEIST on Netflix tonight. Ah declare....thaht is one bahd moo-vee.

Actors trying to do southern Mississippi accents that sound like a SNL skit.

When the eye of a category 5 hurricane passes over....driving a truck through it kicks up dust.

People and trucks and houses are pulled straight up into the sky.....like a tornado, not a hurricane.
