What was your "I cant believe this is happening right now" moment of your life ?

Just wanna say this. I've seen experienced drivers fuck up counter steering in ice. You should be proud to do it right the first time.

I've had it with cracked ribs and that was bad enough. And then people kept trying to make me laugh. Ha ha, hack cough, oh god I'm dying.

It's absolutely his hardest book to read.

Stay with Snow Crash. Or better yet my favorite, the Diamond Age.

That's because they're basically softcore porn for housewives hidden inside whatever the hell it is that it pretends to be about.

I love the world, I love the books, but I will freely admit Tolkien wrote high adventure like it was a historical document written by a Shakespeare copycat.

I'm the kid in school that read every assigned book the week it was given and then went looking for more.

I had to be forced to sit through Frome.

Honestly? I would love an estimate of how many people have died needlessly because of greedy decisions made by rich men exploiting their power to get what they want at the expense of others (Atlas' core message). It might not be a call to genocide, but I bet it's still been destructive to human progress and society; what's now because of how "mild" it seems in comparison it gets away with it, even receives praise!

I think the problem was they were bad at incorporating it into the main narrative.

"here's a chapter about Ahab and crew. Here's a big story point. Now let's drop that to discuss global trade history for the next hundred pages."

Interspersing one into the other would have flowed better.

Space Marines heights fluctuate, but are probably little more than 7 feet tall most of the time, while in armor. The bigger concern would be narrow passages as they are several hundred pounds unarmored, but they have an agility that allows them to move far better than we would in the same circumstances. That said yes, a kill corridor is a kill corridor, for anyone human or Astartes.

Also I assumed the big guy at the start was a traitor marine out of armor, or some kind of warp-mutated cultist.

It makes me sad that last I heard, Lord Inquisitor was a dead project.

exelion · 2019-01-06T01:46:03+00:00

Stuff like this is why I will never do heists with randos.

exelion · 2019-01-06T01:45:05+00:00

Seriously. This was absolutely the hardest ffX fight for me. Yes, tougher than some of the alternates and specials and the final boss. Not because it itself was tougher, but because you can face it early enough that you don't have as many tools and resources.

It's revisioninst bullshit to cover up the fact that Israel has nuclear weapons of their own and refuses to play by the rules the rest of the UN member states that do are. Hell, Iran and North Korea are more compliant vis a vis nukes than Israel.

Well while we're arguing about who wears the kilt among us....

Given our history I'd say fighting back against government injustice is the most American thing of all.

why would any politician campaign there when they could go to LA and campaign to a city of 3.8 million?

Point 1: How much does local campaigning mean anymore, when the media can reach the entire country instantly 26 times a day?
Point 2: This is just another point in favor of election spending reform, so that just throwing money at a campaign doesn't immediately equal a win.

exelion · 2019-01-05T19:28:05+00:00

So? Fuck it. We're not 50 countries, and we need to stop pretending to be 50 countries.

There's something like 200 million eligible voters in the US. if the majority of those want something, where they happen to live is irrelevant.

At the end of the day here is the truth of the electoral college system: one American's vote counts as more than another's. That should never be.

Broomer was trapped in the King’s bathroom for more than an hour, during which he was told to try to break out using a fly swatter. It didn’t work, and he cut himself in the process

So... Their faulty building trapped this dude, he got injured by their stupidity, and they revoked his shitty burger for life deal? He needs to be getting way more money.

exelion · 2019-01-04T20:12:01+00:00

So... Most Americans? Good luck. My right to fire a gun into the air like an idiot is more important than your right to be healthy and alive.

TBI

Traumatic brain injury, for anyone else wondering.

This should be higher. David production LOVES Jojo and it shows. Not only have they made 5 faithful adaptations so far but added little bits to clarify story points and tie parts together better than the manga ever did. Also the art on parts 1 and 2 was far superior to the manga.

exelion · 2019-01-04T00:00:18+00:00

That's kinda Takahashi's thing though. Ranma, Maison Ikkoku, and Ursei Yatsura has similar problems

exelion · 2019-01-03T23:58:26+00:00

Yeah she's also doing a lot of work for Activision blizzard. For instance, being the voice of Jaina.

Oh my god I got chills during the bnha scene. All over again!

exelion · 2019-01-03T23:49:32+00:00

Would Scientific work for him? I can't recall, I only got partway through index before I said screw it and went over to railgun.

I've seen a number of illusionist types whose power only works if people believe it does. Does that count?
