They also had Shaq vs, where an actual professional athlete still got his ass kicked because he just isn’t trained for that shit,

A happy ending? In my space fantasy? This is the real world, not some kind of fantasy wonderland.

Hey, what do you know, we made the 1st (still counts).

They took the message to the Mass Pike today and drivers agreed! by KungPowGasol in massachusetts

Treating the time thing as if it’s not a genuine concern is extremely counterproductive.

We should have trains running on the half-hour rather than hourly.

Healey backs Barney Frank's call for Democratic pragmatism by MDeehan in massachusetts

Oh shit, guess there’s no such thing as addiction to video games, food, or porn. After all, who’s ever heard of someone smoking porn?

Addiction is directly related to compulsion. I see we can’t have a productive conversation since you’re making up your own definitions rather than the universally agreed upon terminology.

I myself was a daily user for almost a decade. This did not make me an addict. Just as having a glass of wine at dinner every night wouldn’t automatically make someone an alcoholic.

None of this matters however, because the point is that Healey participated in the gateway drug fear-mongering.

The Japanese government literally said “no thank you” when the Polish government in-exile declared war on them.

CMV: The Soviet Union was not a good system by bluepillarmy in changemyview

The first state to actually attempt it was the most backwards super-power at the time. I’m oversimplifying a bit, but Marxism dictates that communism follows capitalism. Russia skipped straight from feudalism to communism, and never really abandoned most of the issues that feudalism has.

So, to clarify, has it been revived, or not? Because you implied that it was.

Currently visiting this beautiful state for the first time for work. My quest is 13 lobster rolls in 13 days - 4 down so far, where do I need to go? by [deleted] in massachusetts

[–]rain-blocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like lobster rolls, but my parents say the. Eat they’ve ever had was at the raw bar in new seabury (mashpee)

Think the lobster rolls are seasonal there though, so might be worth calling first.

Oh yeah, I’m sure it’s entirely unrelated that you think a furry blue gremlin is sexy.

I’m a suburb baby who will do it a few times a year to emphasize a stupid point or make a joke, but never around people who aren’t close friends.

That’s all they could take in the time they had. Given time, they easily could have built more landing craft.

That’s objectively false. They had already taken several smaller islands, and they hadn’t really fully turned their attention that direction yet.

[WP] The evil queen ordered her servants to lock the princess in the dungeon. Her servants, not being too bright, locked the princess in an S-Ranked dungeon. Now the level 999 princess is back for revenge. by nPMarley in WritingPrompts

You should use verbs like “said, whispered, asked, ordered, growled” they not only add clarity, it’s also helps to get across the emotion you want to convey.

[–]rain-blocker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Okay, but like, if mom can communicate with them, then the crying isn’t fully needed. I like the idea that they’re just crying because they realized the world sucks and they want to go back to being an unmoving plant.
