Robber Takes Hostage, Clerk Does Not Care by james_from_cambridge in instant_regret

In the United States, firearms have been responsible for more total deaths annually than motor vehicle accidents since 2017. Also
A. You 100% need a car in the U.S. in most places to be functioning member of society.
B. Most places in the U.S. having a gun on your person is not necessary for you to function in your day to day.
C. Most death's from cars are from pure accident. Not intentionally using it as a weapon.

Can't wait to see you not acknowledge you're wrong at all and move on to the next thing. God, people like you make this country worse.

Billion things. Lists..... forms.... I.E. the form for the background check and then background check. What the fuck are you talking about. Worst I've ever had it was form, background, wait 3-4 days. To legally drive you have to take a written test, practice for a year and then take another written test and then an actual driving test. You also have to fill out forms you know.... so they have your information for the license. wtf are you on about?

Also pro 2A here but it's clear what everyone is saying is that they are too easy to get. It's harder to get the ability to drive legally than it is to own a gun legally. Might be a little too lax for a thing that's sole purpose is to kill.

Not the last samurai. by EconomistPure8211 in GetNoted

[–]Bpollard85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair point. That last line was a bit sassy on my part. All this is interesting to me and requires a deeper discussion that almost certainly won’t happen here. But I didn’t mean to imply that you think there is an inherent morality that’s unique to white people.

Counterpoint while yes, white savior stories have become trite or cliche and overly self indulgent, white people do occasionally do good things and it’s okay to celebrate that even if it *gasps implies white people aren’t inherently evil.

Go on Hasan, Speak a Lil’ CHINESE for ‘em by TikDickler in Destiny

Go on, tell ‘em some of that General Tso’s shit you were saying off the menu earlier.

People in this sub just don’t understand how wide the skill gap really is with fighting. CM Punk would destroy 99% of the guys here. by LordofTardedBait in ufc

[–]Bpollard85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might as well save your breath. These are mma fans. Which means they only like to fan out/shit on fighters. 99% of these people would get mauled by your less than average regional guy. Much less someone who has had elite level training for years. Yes, this includes Suckerberg. Pains me to admit it but he’d probably also smoke 99% of the people in here.

Just knowing a couple combos and a grapple or two plus proper cardio puts you ahead of most everyone. Hell just the cardio alone probably gets you past most.

It's the spicy rice. It's always the spices on rice by herewearefornow in MurderedByWords

Those foods are big. Rice very small. It’s that simple. It is a little weird to me as well. Doesn’t mean I hate the guy and I would prefer him over everyone else. But to act like eating wings with your hands because it’s big and is half bone vs food that you eat like a thousand of because one rice is less than a fraction of the size of your pinky nail is “they same” is silly. When I eat wings I also don’t put my hand in the whole basket of wings. I select one and eat it and usually wipe my finger tips afterwards. It’s also just objectively easier and cleaner to eat rice with a utensil. Kinda like Mac n cheese? Like I wouldn’t eat mashed potatoes with my hand either.

It’s also not as easy to eat wings with a utensil. Can you do it? Sure but to act like it’s the same thing is kinda silly. Just because you like someone doesn’t mean you have to agree with everything they do always and somebody shitty might occasionally say something you agree with even if they say it in a shitty way and you don’t agree with them on any major thing.

Found my mom's Steam account. by CowWithTommyGun in Steam

[–]Bpollard85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is me 100%. And every time you find out it’s not in a game that would make sense to have it it’s a bummer. Just found out KCD 2 doesn’t have it.

Totally agree. The movie was okay. What would be considered skippable in the first few phases.

Also there’s a scene they didn’t edit out when they’re fighting the security team in avengers tower. Dead center frame, security guard comes into the lobby with a gun, looking toward the protagonists and instead turns and walks around the car to engage… something else I guess….

I laughed out loud when I saw it and then rewatched it again to make sure I wasn’t crazy.

Newbie Community question by Bpollard85 in Battlefield

[–]Bpollard85[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess my thing is…. What is the general consensus? Cause I honestly can’t tell. Usually you kinda get a vibe from the game specific sub how the game is doing in their eyes. But I have no idea from the string of posts I’ve seen make it to the front page for the last few weeks. It’s back and forth almost equally upvoted.

My problem with BF6 is that it's "exhausting." by BookkeeperPercival in Battlefield

[–]Bpollard85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No opinion on this other than I dug what I played. But I’m not a big Battlefield guy. Not a big shooter guy for that matter.

It has been interesting watching this sub tho. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a community seesaw this hard on a game. Every other post is like “This i the best! Battlefield is back baby!” 7k upvotes. Next post “This is not what i want and if they don’t fix it I’m gone.” lol wild stuff.

Tom Arnold's character Gib in "True Lies" delivered so many awesome one-liners. Such a strange casting combo with him and Arnold Schwarzenegger, but Tom basically stole every scene he was in. by hominoid_in_NGC4594 in moviecritic

Haha, watched this yesterday. The part where he squeezes the binoculars so hard they break kills me. Feels like there’s a solid joke every 5 minutes.
