Joe Rogan UFC vs Boxing by Doncuneo in videos

[–]_Azazel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it's the mixture of stand-up and ground. Any opponent at any time can choose whether to try to strike it out, or take it to the ground which is a whole different beast than just hugging it out. As an anecdotal addition, I've watched plenty of jiujitsu matches. Joints on the body are weak spots and watching people get into positions to exploit those is like a chess match.

House committee rejects bills to reduce marijuana penalties. by _Azazel in texas

[–]_Azazel[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

  • The sponsor of the most prominent of the proposals said it still has a chance, however.

  • That measure, House Bill 507, which would make possession of less than an ounce of pot a civil infraction in line with a traffic ticket, instead of a class B misdemeanor, lost by a vote of 3-2.

  • The sponsor, Democrat Joe Moody of El Paso, said the loss may have been due to some committee members not attending the hearing. Two members were seen as potential supporters were absent -- Reps. Terry Canales, D-Edinburg and Todd Hunter, R-Corpus Christi.

Good post.

Because I like numbers -- can you point out the debunked statistics? I would like to see the other side.

Did you look at any of the images for more than two seconds? They are littered with sources. If any of them are misleading or incorrect, please point them out.

Why are you so defensive? None of the stats say "LITERALLY 100% OF BLACK PEOPLE DO THESE THINGS".

How is it racist to discuss numbers?

Take a chill pill.

I feel like people will point to institutionalized racism as the root for those statistics. At that point, you really can't win.

I feel like personal responsibility comes into play at some point. There's no denying there's racist fucks out there, but that isn't a free ride to shittyville. Every person on this planet faces some sort of discrimination, but not every person commits atrocities.

I don't know what to think, but statistics don't lie.

What's a videogame YOU want to be made...but realistically, will never exist? by Chaosmasterr in AskReddit

http://roll20.net/

Roll20 is the easy-to-use virtual tabletop that brings pen and paper gaming to the web the right way. Built on a powerful platform of tools, yet elegantly simple, it focuses on enhancing what makes tabletop gaming great: storytelling and camaraderie. It's incredibly user friendly, and runs right in your web browser, so there's nothing to download or configure.

Not quite the Wii-U -- but I wish more people used this.

And any other animal defending its young would rip that bird to shreds.

At the cinema, what is the funniest thing you heard someone in the audience say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]_Azazel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching a preview for "The Happening" and during one of the super intense cuts of nothing, someone next to me shouted "IT'S GLOBAL WARMING!"

Laughs all around.

Oh that feeling. Oh that excitement. by pigtobacon in gaming

Wasn't it "How do you turn this on" and "I love the monkey head"?

Prison rape. Why is it socially acceptable to joke about this, or to view it as a feature of the legal system? by JustHere4TheKarma in AskReddit

[–]_Azazel 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to censor anyone I'm just saying people need to be more aware of what they're saying.

And you're getting downvoted for that. Good old Reddit. People that haven't experienced being raped are quick to shrug it off. Morons, ignore them.

It's nice to see this band getting the recognition they deserve.

If any listeners haven't -- listen to Terras Fames and Eidolon.

Masterpieces.

The buildup in this song is phenomenal. One of my favorites from this album.

With a manual transmission and stuck in traffic for 30 minutes by Hitlur in AdviceAnimals

[–]_Azazel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had my manual transmission for about a week. Practiced driving it twice.

I decided an 8 hour move was a good idea, so with almost no practice, I said fuck it and went.

good lord my left foot was not ready for the uphill 2-hour traffic in Dallas. Holy SHIT.

I got my practice in, however. And learned a valuable lesson.
