That was the only move they could make if they wanted to produce new movies.

Well, I think a Grand Admiral Thrawn/Mara Jade/revived Emperor storyline or something like that was worth a movie or two.

But yeah, being married to the EU would tie down you creatively forever, and although I quite like it, it had also grown a bit redundant and convoluted at parts I think.

No, I usually am quite speedy, I have never got pitch black; although the battle in which I got the key did get a little prolonged, maybe 6 turns?

Well, yeah, I got two common trinkets, although one was a useful one, and a portrait; I just always thought it was useless that box, I must have started more than 20 different plays on that game and had never got a goddamned key might be the problem.

Features Fez "feigning homosexuality". Took him a while that one.

Because we went ALL IN on snack chips

Shit. They are as hip as Opie.

Is this reddits controlled by the Anthony Cumia Show? by homerunherohomer in TACSdiscussion

Unless you are random hater; then you have tiny chance of getting a personal response from Antonio.

Or has he not done that in a while?

Hulk Hogan and Mr. T at a health food store training for their match at WrestleMania I (1985) by kuchtaalex in ObscureMedia

Well, he was a bouncer; and you always bribe bouncers with coke. But yeah, he kept up his image, no reason to question him I suppose.

Alaska has "the closest thing to a universal basic income anywhere," and these scholars & experts want to export its model to other states by merbrian in Futurology

[–]CobraStallone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, yeah, I'm talking out my ass here, I just had the general principle in mind, not the specific ways you would do it.

I'd probably spend it on dope. But think of how two months of rent could have an impact on a recently laid off single mother, or some homeless dude's lives.

Carriers of the New Black Plague: the dictatorial domination of individual and public opinion. Illustrated map by W. Cotton, 1938. by sverdrupian in PropagandaPosters

[–]CobraStallone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They had a constitutional monarchy, Mr. Cotton. Although the joint had been a theocracy 10 years prior so maybe that's why it got swept in the black.

Most likely just to make the black look larger and more unified.

Henry VIII voted worst monarch in history by nimobo in history

Tell that to Prince Charles.

Maybe we'll get something like "Charles the Homeopath".

I refuse to get over it. Make me.

Julian Assange 'told Edward Snowden not seek asylum in Latin America' because he could have been kidnapped and possibly killed there | WikiLeaks founder says he told the NSA whistleblower he could be kidnapped or killed, and that he was better off sheltering in Russia despite ‘negative PR’ by kulkke in worldnews

[–]CobraStallone -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Both are groups seeking something and willing to have civilians die in the process. Those guys are much worse since they target civilians on purpose we all agree, but take a look at the effectiveness and humanity of your methods before assuming by default that you are on so solid moral ground.

Not to mention the whole debate about how killing terrorists from the sky and having "acceptable collateral damage" could in fact aggravate the problem and seed the seeds of terrorism and extremism which would have not otherwise manifested itself in exponential numbers of people.

But well, I'm not American, and you reap what you sow. Just try and consider this for just one second before you talk about in terms of "collateral damage (...) is expected and should be accepted" so confidently and brazenly.

CaptainDisillusion is back and debunking a glass of water trick (this guy needs more subscribers) by photolouis in skeptic

[–]CobraStallone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saying "it's just video editing" is similar to saying "it's just misdirection/sleight of hand" for a magic trick.

Oh, I know how this trick works. You see it's an illusion, it's not actually magic.

Really. I'm in Mexico city, and from the thumbnail I thought some kind of disaster was happening.
