Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law

A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not. Oh, that goes for politicians too. Guess I should have lied more. If I had I might be President. At least a Senator. Why do these idiots expect citizens to obey the law when they don't?

Re: “The Oyster Room

Well I was born & raised on Folly and this place is just as bad as all of the other places "he" has opened. Chill n Grill = should have stopped their. Took over the old Sea Shell, turned it into Snap & Crack = lame no value. Next takes over 11 center st. as Folly Shrimp Co. = Fail. Week attempt but again you would have to know the proprietor to understand his short comings & lack of business sense. All in all, Folly was doing just fine before his daddy was writing checks. BTW were are all the other reviews that seemed to be deleted giving a proper review of this place & not some "I live on FB & work in industry & love food....blah blah blah..."

Interesting until the Morrissey on quaaludes vocals kicked in.

Also, that's not "noise". Not even close.

Boy, I bet if those guys were any good someone might give enough of a shit to put them into NME's list of snarkiest popstar quotes.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law

The amount of wasted dollars in the aerospace industry is incredible. Boeing does not need these rebates. They could easily afford to continue their productions without these government subsidies and if they cannot, the free market has judged them. Just another liberal example of do as I say, not as I do.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law

@nofaith - The purpose of the tax breaks is to bring those jobs to SC. It is free market working by providing the tax breaks! SC is giving the film/TV industry a reason to bring its business here & not another state.

I would rather give a business a tax break to bring more jobs to SC rather than having higher unemployment.

Well done SC Legislature!

Re: “The Agenda: Beach litter in S.C.; Gullah-Geechee plan approved; Reckless + film incentives

I can never figure out The Agenda, as it always feels like everything has been discussed.

Bearing that in mind, I will be willing to discuss the following:

A) "President" Obama should be impeached for this:

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_…

B) That new bar on Cumberland -- The Craftsmen -- has anyone been? I have, but it was before hours, and I was refused service even though my feet were tired and I was beginning to hallucinate. It looks really nice, though.

C) http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/simga…

D) Stephen Hawking being an adulterer.

E) IUDs.

F) Stephen Hawking being flown and forcibly pushed around in a parabolic plane.

G) Huddle House™ Mt. Pleasant v. Huddle House™ Folly Road: DOES CORPORATE IMPOSE UNIFORM FRANCHISE MANDATES?

I) The trendiness of "Libertarianism".

J) Why does the Charleston Police Department deploy "Teams", and why do all the marked cars seem to commingle everywhere?

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law

In my opinion, you shouldn't support the film industry at all, as a lot of standing around goes into making film.

Stop watching movies. Adhere to your principles.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law

Not looking for a fight but go and watch the amount of money wasted on the Army Wives set. I watched them spend a full day with at least 50 people to close off a section of East Montague and film a portion of a 30 second promo. There were five people there who were in charge of bringing each of the actresses their shoes when the cameras stopped rolling. Yeah, all of those people got to work but it is and incredible amount of money that gets wasted. If they were not throwing it away I wouldn't feel so bad but they are not the folks that need tax breaks.

I think the rebates should be larger.

Also, I'm a hopeless romantic and fellow Jane Austen fan, and hope that the other Jane Austen fans won't be offended when I bring my Polar Bear™ cooler to the "Pride and Prejudice" discussion on Saturday!

Re: “Freeloaders: Double your pleasure

South of the Border is now -- for a limited time only, and for the first time EVER -- giving out free fireworks*

*with the purchase of fireworks.

I just thought I'd point that out for the City Paper readers who are also Freeloaders because I'm trying to stay relevant and on-topic. (!)
