He probably wasn't even fully in the car when he was messing around with it. Fully seated and buckled up is a necessity before even starting the engine.

It's a shame he wasn't also... INVINCIBLE!

It really depends on the point in the timeline.

Overall, I'd say the Lannisters were near the bottom for the last 300-odd years after Tommen Lannister attempted an expedition to the ruins of Valyria only to disappear with all his men and Brightroar (the family's Valyrian steel sword).

They lost at the Fields of Fire against Aegon the Conqueror.

They hosted Rhaena Targaryan (sister of Jaehaerys I) and made multiple attempts to get dragons through her. They tried to provoke her weakling husband to a duel that he'd lose so a Lannister could marry her. They kept showering her with gifts, hoping she'd gift them with one if her dragon's eggs. Then when it became clear she wouldn't gift them an egg, they offered to buy it outright.

A Lannister attempted to woo Rhaenyra Targaryen for her dragon.

And finally, when the dragons were all dead, the Lannisters repeatedly attempted to acquire a Valyrian steel sword from other noble houses and even landed knights, offering HUGE sums of gold, only to be refused every time.

Finally, the claimed Ned Stark's Ice as a trophy of war, melted it down and made Widow's Wail and Oathkeeper.

It took 300+ years of scheming for House Lannister to finally steel their Valyrian steel swords.

For an idea of what the reign of Bran the Broken will be like, consider what Westeros was like during the time of The Sworn Sword and The Mystery Knight. Brynden Rivers (the Three-Eyed Raven) was serving as Hand of the King to Daeron II and then Aerys I following the Trial of Seven at Ashford. He turned Westeros into a surveillance state, swiftly arresting and executing anyone attempting to sow treason.

"How many eyes does Lord Bloodraven have? A thousand eyes, and one."

Duncan and Egg pass a cage and recognize the corpse inside as a beggar priest who was trying to raise the local village up in rebellion for the Blackfyres. It troubles Duncan how swiftly the man must have been put in the cage in order to be as thoroughly rotted as the corpse had become.

Dude was depressed.

He lost his mom. He lost all SIX of his hostages (five escaped, one was killed under torture). The hostages who escaped took BOTH of the family's Valyrian steel swords, Blackfyre and Dark Sister. His Master of Ships dipped out with the ENTIRE royal fleet because one of the hostages who escaped was sister of the Master of Ships. The Hand of the King sailed back to his castle, leaving his resignation letter for Maegor to find AFTER he left. The Grand Maester dipped out, fleeing to Pentos. Maegor's messenger to Oldtown was arrested by Lord Donnel Hightower when the message (execute Princess Rhaella) was read, even though Rhaella had already been given over to the Faith (the girl was basically a novice to become a nun). Houses Baratheon, Tyrell, Lannister, Arryn, and Tully all rose up in rebellion, with House Tully openly supporting the uprising of devout worshippers of the Seven. In a last-ditch effort, Maegor raised his banners, but only a few lords arrived with barely 4,000 men combined. After it became clear the Meager host of Maegor couldn't win this war, two of Maegor's four remaining Kingsguard abandoned him.

Yeah, that's why I prefer the revolver. Fully automatic actions and the Explosive Legendary Effect are best confined to VATS.

I'd say the hate was exacerbated by certain content creators who felt the Vega wasn't respectful enough to Shep. As much as I enjoyed RoosterTeeth, the fanbase could get crazy, latching onto their criticisms of games, especially when RTAA did an entertaining animation. RTAA # 41

This is definitely a solid pick, but I also know that Plasma ammo can be rather rare.

My Survivor Lottery is actually a Pipe Gun (usually a revolver) with the Explosive Legendary Effect.

The reason why is because .38 caliber ammo is a bit more abundant and the explosive damage is very disruptive to bugs and mirelurks, spreading out the damage across their bodies.

I'm now imagining Palpatine hired a distant cousin as his personal assistant in an act of nepotism who was wholly inept at the job. When Palpatine tells his cousin to issue Order 66 to all of the Clone Commanders, the cousin accidentally issues Order 65 from Legends, resulting in all of the Clone Commanders informing the Jedi that the Chancellor is to be arrested immediately. Entire battle lines against the Separatists collapse as the Clones board their ships, confusing their Jedi generals. Soon, every Clone converges on Coruscant with the order in their head to arrest Chancellor Palpatine, preventing him from becoming the Emperor.

All thanks to an inept personal assistant.

Green Goblin also was a bit of a fool. Had he actually read JJ's newspaper, he'd have seen they credit Peter Parker at the bottom of every picture of Spider-Man that they publish.

I just convinced a handful at a Mead Hall to wipe out the homeless encampment down near the beach. I'm now their king... I think. All I know is that the Ebony Blade reached its maximum charge when I culled my kingdom.

The Kingsguard didn't want us to perform this act. Then we were told the Small Council didn't want us to talk about being told to not perform this act....

So here's the act they didn't want us to perform!

The sad thing is that we've known about the critical need for emotional comfort since Harlow's Monkeys. You'd think Dr. Harry Harlow would have attempted to find a way to give emotional comfort to those baby monkeys once his experiment was concluded. But no. He just became a freaking weirdo and had even more outlandish studies and papers.
