The ones that produce these drugs are, yeah. Granted some of it is because it was bad PR and other countries/companies were going to boycott them, but still.

It’s pretty much impossible to own a gun in Japan, and just handling a handgun is illegal. Even gangs and the yakuza don’t really use them. You also must take a mental health and drug test to prove you are mentally fit to own a gun and aren’t on any drugs which may impact how you use the gun. Oh, and if you do own a…

I remember that. I also remember gun nuts using that as “proof” that gun control wouldn’t work because the people at Sandy Hook would have been stabbed instead of shot. They completely ignored the fact not only were fewer people injured in China (because it takes a lot more physical power to stab multiple people…

I’ve heard a couple different reasons why. First is that the companies that make the drugs refuse to sell them if they’d be used on humans. The drug cocktail that was used on humans initially is also impossible to use as the manufacturers refuse to sell them at all in states that have legal execution and/or any…

Yup. They can’t legally go out and kill someone, so they live vicariously through capital punishment.

I was turned off of the firing squad (not that I support capital punishment at all — I don’t) when I learned that it’s not always quick or painless. The shooters could have bad aim or intentionally miss (given the racism in America, I have no doubt there’d be a lot of missing), leaving the person laying there to bleed…

I haven’t played it myself, but it sounds pretty bad — a cheap city builder with microtransactions and timers. Plus, according to this Cracked article, it gets very, very P2W when you get far enough in. Except you don’t actually keep what you buy or get any long-lasting benefits. You could literally spend hundreds of…

It seems not being a dick is really hard for some people.

Yup. I’ve been stalked in the past. A scary number of people thought it was cute or harmless, so they encouraged him to “win me over”. Others thought it wasn’t a big deal, like you said. Even when someone else stated she wouldn’t work with him because he was obsessed with her, a lot of people stood by and let this guy…

It’s dangerous in that he’s telling a teenage girl that she needs to prioritize a man’s desires over her own comfort and safety. Right now it’s a guy calling, next it’s easily the St. Paul’s rape case where a girl was raped and on the stand said that she was scared about hurting her rapist’s feelings by GTFO of the…

I don’t know how people can do much talking in those places, either. Granted my hearing (or more specifically, how my brain processes sound) is different than most people’s, but even a loud restaurant makes it so I can barely hear people and miss huge chunks of what people say. At a club I wouldn’t be able to tell if…

The rush you get from carrying around an expolsive all day, knowing it could go off and kill you at any time is the best, isn’t it? What other reason is there to have one on you?

Because that would mean that the government and law enforcement agencies would have to acknowledge that all the violent rhetoric (specifically from Republicans) has an actual impact and needs to be addressed. Easier to say that it’s a mentally ill lone wolf white man instead of part of a systemic problem.

I have no idea what that was about. Especially since every single person who said this to me had such poor spelling and grammar while identifying themselves as male.

You must have a good guild or be on a good server. When I played WoW, there was a lot of sexism going around on my server, to the point where a lot of players who were women refused to talk unless it was a 100% PUG-free run with guild members (and only if those members weren’t fuckweasles themselves). Otherwise the…

Oh geez, Starcraft! There were a few times I did actually identify myself as a girl back in the day, and the responses I got each time amounted to me being too good to be a girl and that the way I was typing wasn’t feminine (apparently full sentences with no 1337 speak or cussing wasn’t feminine?).

Same here. Never used a mic as a teen, and right now I only use a mic if I’m playing with friends. If a game or a game’s community requires a mic, I either mute my mic (more like leave it muted) or don’t play. It’s just not worth the stress and harassment that comes when strangers go “OMG! YOU’RE A GIRL! DATE ME, YOU…

Only if they actually kill the person (even then I doubt black women will be allowed to use SYG to defend themselves).

So true. Studies have been done on soldiers from WW2 and other wars which found most people (~90%) only actually fired at the enemy when a higher ranking officer was there to watch over them to make sure they did. Even then a lot of soldiers fired with the intention of missing because most people don’t want to kill…

On Blackheart’s Bay, I tend to put down my egg too close to buildings so when the cannon gets turned on my team, the pirate takes it out. This isn’t something you want to happen as Murky in the middle of a team fight...
