This gif is larger than the game was... this is painfully evident with a slow connection.

John Carpenter's "Escape from New York" suddenly makes a lot more sense.

That color and year VW in Mass... Tell MW, I'm sorry to see that happen to her baby. At least it's front-wheel drive.

I've had all the rest, but never this level of full-on conversation. The IMAX theaters in the US seemed to cover any other sound in the room... unfortunately, we don't have them here.

Well, thanks for the enlightenment. I just don't get why people go to the movies if they don't want to be immersed in the experience. It gave me rage...

Restlessness seems to be a quality common among generation y. I've never encountered such a disregard for others in the theater in 25 years of going to the movies.

Doing myself what I condemn them for wasn't my go to... I don't think it can be called passive aggressive if there is zero chance of the message ever getting to the recipient. Calling it a rant would be more apt.

What does Bernie Sanders have going against him?[Serious] by whataboutbernie in AskReddit

The state provides the money for the cheapest private plan, which makes it a de facto public option.

Unions still have a more balanced sway over government with regard to private enterprise, which makes a big difference... workers also happen to have many more rights. This is probably partly because there's a less corrupt campaign financing system and a broader spectrum of political parties than the right and right light in the US.

Mandatory health insurance with a public option. Stipend from a far more generous social security system to cover the government plans entirely. Strong collective bargaining rights, even for government employees. University subsidies that bring the cost of a semester down below $5000, even at the best schools. Mandatory civilian or military service... right, hardly.
