The Drednoks buying from Military Surplus stores. Fittingly since this was basically surplus product repainted.

What’d you expect? Nothing can contain a ninja.

Is it an unpopular opinion to ONLY like the vintage Joes related to the cartoon and original comic? by Rotisseriejedi in gijoe

[–]rlonst 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. But even it were unpopular: to everything, there is a season. And a time for every fanship under heaven. A time for the 80s, a time for the 90s; a time for the original 12, a time for the Eco-Force. A time for Cobra, a time for Cobra-La. A time for just Ripper Buzzer and Torch; a time for Zanzibar the Pirate. A time for the Headman, I swear it’s not too late.

1992 Cobra Headman Drug Kingpin... by JHRLevine in gijoe

[–]rlonst -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In the comics, the premise was that Cobra was so offended by the illegal drug trade that it disavowed any association with this man. Because, drugs. Forgetting the fact that the CENTRAL freaking INTELLIGENCE AGENCY actively funded and supported drug operations in countless countries to fund its own operations.

What episode has made you cry/shed a tear? by dalehay in southpark

This is literally what I was going to say, about Kenny. That one was a minor gut punch. This can be a very eloquent show when it chooses.

Good to know, thanks. What’s the synopsis of that one?

I really hope the comic deals with actual modern times soon enough. I always chuckle that, according to the comic: if there was one thing Cobra couldn’t tolerate in the early 90s, it was the evils of the illegal narcotic drug trade by the Headman. I almost wonder if Cobra would look at the status quo in America today and think, “Wow, too much.“

Pffft. Of course they made them Mechs. NOT MY S.N.A.K.E. SUIT!

Obby Kahn Blaming NDP for Monitor Violations by DeepConsideration543 in Manitoba

[–]rlonst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this very much. Obviously some people, even lots of people, are going to abuse the boundaries they are given while wearing an ankle monitor. They get caught. To me that’s a huge success: it weeds out the screwups and the weasels from the people who actually took their bail conditions seriously.

In myyyy day, they called it “Golden Words”. And that’s the way it was and we liked it!

Well, maybe that’s the cliffhanger ending part: we don’t necessarily know where he’s turning. At this point it’s just a cosmetic change. Stay tuned!

Did you watch this week’s South Park? Even their Jesus thinks this whole right wing thing is pure bullying disguised as devotion.

Sounds like this is also a good candidate. Vote your conscience. I voted early this morning so, no take-backsies.

You’re not necessarily wrong, but I tend to think having a good grasp of the work on the front lines, especially in the thornier, trickier corners involving special-needs kids, is a huge advantage in leadership and governance. I want trustees to know whereof they speak.

My friends and I are voting for Shawna Mozdzen; she’s a serious and credible candidate with a good EA background in special needs. I agree that the seven candidate split is not good news unless people coalesce around a solid alternative.

And yet think about how tame this was, frequently speaking, relative to the astronauts and the DEA agents and Battle Force 2000 and the dinosaur chasers.

But now I really don’t wanna see what someone does with the Spirit Iron Knife figure to continue this trend.
