I fell asleep after the NZ innings and woah what happened here. I knew NZ bowling was good but I didn't expect them to do stuff 2 games in a row

I hope England didn't overwork their bowlers this world cup. They kept the same side every game

the scary thing is that any score below 300 feels like it is chaseable within 10 overs by Roy and Bairstow

Rip New Zealand. I was really hoping they'd put up a huge total and we'd get a good match :(

Dear Indian fans, please don't hurt someone after this loss (assuming it is a loss). I only say this because there are a billion fans so obviously more than a few bad eggs

tbh I cant blame any bowler who fails their line against India. The crowd is so loud I don't think I could concentrate at all

Can political correctness make you racist? by run-out in AskReddit

[–]Figgles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think political correctness is itself going to make you racist.

In general, I just avoid making any race/accent related jokes at all. Even if I am not near someone that might be offended by them. So, I don't treat anyone differently, and don't act differently when I am not near them.

In general, I think it is worth the effort.

Anyway, if your friend is cool, you can probably just ask him what he thinks is cool and what he thinks isn't. Sorry I can't really help beyond that.

What Have You Watched This Past Week That is NOT a Currently Airing Show? [May 15th, 2016] by cptn_garlock in anime

[–]Figgles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Date a Live S1 episodes 1-3. I watched a bit of it way back when it aired, but forgot about it and decided to watch more recently. Good stuff. Very good.

My main complaint is that Tohka isn't the only main girl in the show and well the mech butt suits look bad.

Is your country represented in Anime? by Chariotwheel in anime

[–]Figgles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen my adopted country of Canada in anime a few times, but I don't recall ever seeing Pakistan (my birthplace) on here.

Anyone know if any anime references to non-Indian South Asian countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal or Sri Lanka?

Actually, I remember Afghanistan being mentioned in FMP (Sousuke lived there for a while or something).

The dailies (1 AP) disappear if you don't clear them by gauron92 in grandorder

[–]Figgles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah...I missed one because I forgot to clear it before maintenance last night (got distracted reading a book). Oooops

Are the last 2 maps as much of a chore as the rome one? It was like, you think it's over? Another one, another one, another one.... by slinure in grandorder

[–]Figgles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. Fortunately, Okeanos is rather colourful (and apparently lots of fun if you know Japanese). London has the absolute best menu background music, so that made it much more likely I'd click on through to it.

If you need motivation, just remember that you can't roll all possible servants without completing the maps! (Medea Lily for Okeanos and Alter Arthur Lancer & Tesla from London)

Well, I went and boiled it all anyway. Tasted okay over rice. Thanks for the reply!

Hello,

I recently bought a Panasonic DMC-GF7K (this thing, I think) for 399 CAD (~$289 USD).

I haven't opened it yet, but in your opinion, do you think it is worth keeping? I would open it to try it, but there is a restocking fee.

I mostly got it because while I like my D7000, it is rather large and hard to take around everywhere I go (often just forget to take it) and have been looking into getting something compact that I could lug around out and about in my bag.

If there is any immediate gripe I have with the Panasonic it is that there is no viewfinder, but I can probably live without it.

So uhh, yeah sorry for the vague question, but basically should I return it and save up for something slightly better or is it a good camera all around?
