That whole thing. When a branch of a religion uses "being separate and unique" from the rest of the world as one of its defining characteristics, the idea of respecting others that don't fit their mold is exceedingly difficult.

Despite X2 being a fucking solid game.
Probably. To be totally honest, unless you’re from the outlying islands, dark-skinned as fuck, or from way up north, is any Filipino really fullblood? And if not, is that really a bad thing? I know that the PI are a victim for colonialism and such, but we can’t rewrite that history. We can learn it, understand it, but…
Yup, there’s the hand-to-hand form of eskrima. Being mad that she doesn’t have baston is like being mad she’s not using swords or daggers in eskrima movement.
(Other Filipino here, btw.)
I don't think this is a gender issue. It's a person with maturity problems. That's the issue.
Along with GenCon as well.
But yes, the more, the better.
Dear everyone in Indiana that opposes this legislation,
That doesn't really work here.
The honesty is important. I somehow went from being a meek, timid kid to kind of a douchebag. I don't have the blowout hair or anything, but I've sort of allowed my looks to get to my head. :/
Mrs. Apogee has learned to deal with it or just ignore it altogether since it's not worth taking seriously.
Yeah. Weight can fluctuate, but a douchebag is still a douchebag, no matter the waistline.
signed,
-physically fit, but still kind of a douchebag
I'd probably run the same playbook I ran in college:
You know what's funny - Tom Clancy did something like this. His title, Rainbow Six, had a cast of characters from all over the globe taking part in a covert ops campaign. No one made a stink of it.
Hell, the team was initially led by Ding Chavez. And now, in the game continuity, Ding Chavez is no longer the field…
Right. I love Steve Rogers. I do. And when he died, I was okay with that. Hey, he's had a long career and contributed a lot to his universe. Let him rest.
Political correctness? How about representing the changing face of the American population and the existing face of the comic reading population? Or maybe because Marvel wants to get ahead of a market-change curve and doesn't want to be stuck with a roster of characters that look like they fell out of a Silver-Age…
"BUT MUH WHITE PEOPLE AND MALE REPRESENTATION."
Nice work, son. Now go to your nearest comic book and have their nice desk rep get you up to speed on that Ms. Marvel that you totally missed.
They're not. But that's the point.
They get to slide by because they've got money behind them. The rest of us? No. We have to get by playing by the rules. But if you make enough money, you can do whatever you want, short of murder. And hell, if you make enough, you can probably slide by with murder, too.
It's basically a huge invitation to corrupt things. It's a smaller version of the American financial drop in the late 2000s. The message from that was, "if you're too valuable to lose, and if we can't find a way to get by without you, we'll actually help you after your fuckery bankrupts America."
Oh, I love Clarkson as a host, and this incident doesn't make me think he's a horrible person. But he's a guy who lost his shit and he probably didn't need to. So yeah, fire his ass and maybe he'll learn his lesson before his next go on TV, which will likely happen pretty quick.
Fucking professionalism, man. That's all this is about. You wanna be mad, be mad. But shit, do it like a grown-up. Talk that shit out, or take that shit off work hours and then you can throw hands.
The producer should've swung back and knocked Clarkson's ass out for good measure.
But I'd still fire Clarkson. He's a grown-up and a professional. He should know better than to throw punches over whatever petty shit this was about. If he wants to settle shit with his hands that badly, then it needs to be outside of…
