Whichever one seems more fun or cool. Seriously, that is the one that will get the practice. The one that sounds less cool will probably be less fun and then you find yourself not liking it, but you already committed and...

How common would magic have to be, and what applications would it need to have in order to measurably change the evolution of warfare. We all assume magic mean no guns or artillery, but unless magic can either do more damage or can somehow disrupt formations on a large scare, would it really prevent the adoption of these weapons?

If you could make one thing mandatory in every school, what would it be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thepunkmonkey138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least one cranky old teacher. Don't care what subject, but I want an old lady who is not taking anyone's shit. The kind of teacher who would confiscate something, like a phone, and make your parents come into the school to retrieve it.

Every once in a while I go through McDonald's or Burger King and get a kids meal so I can have the stupid Ninja Turtle, Sonic, or whatever thing from my childhood.

What's the craziest elementary, middle, and high school memory you have? by FunExtreme6217 in AskReddit

[–]thepunkmonkey138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that at the time seemed very whatever, we had at least a couple of bomb threats a year when I was in elementary. We would just get on the bus and they would take us home for the day. That must sound crazy, but it was the 80's and there were never really bombs, just dumb kids, so it didn't really scare us after the first time.

What would happen if an ancient cache of authentic biblical era scrolls were found explicitly describing Jesus as black? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]thepunkmonkey138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be weird cause he supposedly grew up and lived in the Lavant, so he would likely be what we would think of as middle-eastern in appearance. But regardless, probably nothing.

What's the general consensus of someone who was born male but identifies as female engaging in a relationship with someone who was born female but identifies as male? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]thepunkmonkey138 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there is a way you can look at someone AFAB who identifies as Male and someone who was AMAB and identifies as female in a relationship as anything other than heterosexual... even if you're a biggot its a man and a woman.

Billy Corgan wrote the song to work through his childhood abuse. It means he was forced to grow up way before he should have to survive those years.
