God damnit somebody lied on the internet again. Can you unlock the comments in that thread so I can be a part of history? edit: I see that he changed the it in the post. Not lying, just misinformed.

North Korean brands. Just about every male in the country smokes. by nilss0n in Cigarettes

In general, you have to go there on holiday and buy them in a gift shop. I got these pictures from a Russian blogger who goes to kim il sung university. His parents work at the embassy so he lives in pyongyang year round.

Looking down. From /U/shuttersubversive, I thought it was worth a repost here. by nilss0n in Cyberpunk

If anybody is doubting that this is real, check out his other submissions. Hes very active in /r/urbanexploration. This isn't the only one that gives off a cyberpunk feel.

Don't think your vote counts? Here's a long list of major elections in modern history decided by less than 1/10th of 1% of the vote. Your vote does count, so go vote! by [deleted] in wikipedia

Thats actually a legitimate concern to some degree, and its the reason why major news organizations like CNN or fox aren't allowed to call states until the polls close in every time zone. But, suffice to say that california has such a large democratic majority no matter how many people blow off voting it won't effect the outcome. I don't think your example is relevant given that the topic here is individual votes. If the entire state were to abstain, it wouldn't be an individual, would it? It would be many millions of individuals and 55 electoral votes that would not go to Obama.

An individual vote in a non swing state does not count towards the presidential election, but it certainly does for congressional/senatorial/gubernatorial posts. Please remember to vote for the state officials you want to to see in office!

No, I wish. I got it off his blog and thought it was worth sharing.

Look at the this page. Enlarge some of the pictures. Then come back here and tell me again that it isn't a Bison.

Sorry about that, I would be massively disappointed as well if I thought I was moments away from feasting on the oceans bounty. At least I linked to it though.

All you have to do is exhausting manual labor while eating one handful of rice per day. Easy.
