Here is a transcript of Affleck’s appearance on Larry King during the 2004 Democratic Convention. He doesn’t mention Matt Damon, nor does he do during his other 2004 appearance on the show.
Here is a page listing all of the transcripts of the Larry King show. It may be in there somewhere.
The fourth link that Google returns on “Matt Damon truther” is this very thread. The other three say nothing to link Matt Damon to that conspiracy theory. That’s the hallmark of a rumor coming into being before our very eyes. Certainly I’d expect the truthers to advertise it more prominently if they could claim him as one of their own
Then it was another show. I said IIRC it was Larry King, but it very well could have been another show.
No, our sun is not a variable star. While its output does change it is only by about 0.1% and that is over an 11 year cycle. Many stars outputs change by this amount, they are not all variables.
True variable stars have greater changes in luminosity and shorter periods.
BTW, what is a 10-82? Never heard of this in the UK.
It’s from a Kevin Smith movie - Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back IIRC. It’s the radio code for “dead hooker in Ben Affleck’s trailer”.
So what you’re saying is that you believe that Matt Damon is a conspiracy theorist based on something you vaguely remember Ben Affleck saying five years ago on some show or other, not really sure about that, despite the overwhelming lack of other evidence? :dubious:
All I care about is that he’s an excellent actor. I mean, seriously, the dude has big time acting chops.
Beyond that I don’t care if he’s a Scientologist, a “Truther,” or a Mormon. He could even move in next door for all I care as long as he keeps Affleck off my lawn.
I remember it. You don’t have to believe it, it doesn’t affect my self esteem whether you do or not.
I’m just enjoying the irony, is all.
I enjoy him as an actor from Rounds to Bourne to the View Askew-niverse(Kevin Smith movies), but what got me to appreciate his politics was that fine line during the height of Sarah Palin-mania, (paraphrased) “It’s like the plot of a really bad Disney movie”.
And yeah, his name really can’t be said any other way after Team America.
I don’t think that word means what you think it means.
Maybe not, but I’m smart enough to know that taking Ben Affleck’s word that Matt Damon is a conspiracy theorist isn’t any smarter than taking Matt Damon’s word about global warming.
I never mentioned global warming. Please don’t put words on my keyboard.
That’s because Ben Affleck is being fed by Jimmy Kimmel, whereas Matt Damon gets to f Sarah Silverman!
You’re right, you didn’t, I mistook you for someone else. Sorry about that.
That said, it’s also not any smarter than believing in conspiracy theories, what with, again, the overwhelming lack of any evidence other than a dimly remembered interview with Ben Affleck, who has been known to make jokes about Matt Damon.
And now whatever, since I don’t especially care about Matt Damon, I just think you’re being silly.
Actually, it is ironic that Rik is taking for gospel a comment made some years back in some interview by a friend of Matt’s, who may or may not have been joking, that Matt is a 9/11 truther, despite the sheer lack of supporting evidence…which is precisely what 9/11 truthers do regarding the crashes.
Sorry, Rik, but that is the way it looks.
Yeah, it’s ironic because you’re acting like a typical conspiracy theorist. Bottom line, if the claim is controversial and you’ve no evidence to back it up, you’ve no business making it.
Whatever. Sorry your favorite actor believes something stupid. I guess it must be difficult to deal with.
Yeah! Wake up sheeple and stop drinking the Kool-Aid!
Jeebus, Rik, the whole argument is that there’s no evidence that “our favorite actor” believes anything of the sort beyond a possibly non-serious, half-remembered anecdote. Maybe he does believe it, but I’d kind of like some actual evidence to that effect apart from “something Rik thinks”.
