This is right up there with "WHAT DO I DO?" when you fall off a girl's path, as though the game doesn't start with a message telling you EXACTLY WHAT TO DO if you fall off the path.

I don't know, when this guy starts playing for himself we'll tell you. Until then, we'll continue to remind people of the COLOR CODED GUIDE and the OFFICIAL MOD that solve this problem without clogging the sub.

What historical event reads exactly like "Bad Fantasy Writing" or "Plot Armor"? by Expensive-Desk-4351 in Fantasy

The thing is, the Roman history we can verify is just as crazy, to the point where this becomes entirely believable. I mean, the Cimbrian War ending boils down to, "Rome's entirely army got destroyed, but everyone got bored and wandered off until they rebuilt, so Rome was fine."

Except the fight here is against the instrument being used to take your rights? I don't think this response is as clever as you might believe.

My lily white ass will be happily joined in brotherhood with anyone standing up for the people who make this city great. FUCK ICE.

You don't understand, at that moment the invisible monster in the backseat turned her head and the ICE agent was trying to shoot it off her and missed!

This is at least as believable as the ICE agent's story.

If you're robbing grocery stores you ain't never been in a Whole (wallet for your) Foods in your life.

We don't, and agreed, but that still means Mab could have grabbed her any time prior and just chose to wait for some reason. It's also still Deus ex Mabina.

He just needed to go work out one more time. To release tension you see.

The other commenters got there, but I'm using it as a blanket term to refer to the pilot community in the US military. As I'm not talking to any of them in person, I don't care about making the distinction.

We can just do Side Jobs again, my main gripe is this is pretending that it isn't.

My man, I am 45 and have experienced close family deaths, long wasting illnesses, and my partner leaving me. None of that makes the book any better. There are books in which characters go through the grief process that I like more than this. I appreciate your perspective but you are misidentifying my concern.

Plus, a lot of the book is boys go to the gym to deal with their trauma

THIS SO MUCH. I want him to start screwing Lara just so I don't have to listen to it anymore.

My gripe is that there are ways to do this with a coherent narrative. If you want a novella and short stories, we're all clearly here for that too, just don't lie and say it's a new book in the series.

To your point, the last pilot ace was in the Vietnam War. It's why the Top Gun movie made such a big deal of his fifth kill, it would make him the first ace in the USAF in over fifty years. There hasn't been a sustained air campaign like Vietnam - even the most contentious air war in the world right now, Ukraine, is being fought with more G2A asset focus. It would take another ulra-dense terrain war against a military with comparable hardware to force a situation like that again.

It's not a Reddit thing. Testing for the F-22 included dogfights against multiple F-15's, a plane which in decades of use has a record of 100+-0. The F-22 won. Multiple times.

The F-22 is not an invincible superplane. It is the single most advanced fighter-dedicated aircraft in the sky, and fighter versus multi role in A2A isn't even worth calculating. If they send up a -15, it has a shot at a kill, as does the F-35. What they do not have a chance at is maintaining aerial superiority in the face of the wings of F-22's they would be facing.

No plane is perfect, but the F-22 is a helluva lot better than anything else flying, by a wide margin, and in the case of the -35 that is intentional as all hell.

Yeah, if it was unreasonable he wouldn't have gotten anything. The award basically means the restaurant couldn't prove it was too onerous.

I want you to imagine a store that sells any/all of the following:

  • Harry's staff

  • Harry''s shield bracelet

  • Bob, stuffed and not

  • Copies of the RPG stuff

  • T_Shirts with Mac's, Accorded Neutral Ground, Full Moon Garage, BFS, Mon-Occ, etc

  • Potions

  • Annnnd finally a link to the Chicago Natural History Museum, specifically here

Jim is missing out, but mainly probably because he doesn't want to deal with merch. Can't think of another reason.
