“The continuing threat of terrorism, the threat of mass murder on our own soil, will be met with a unified, effective response...” 

Mass murder must not equate to mass shootings, otherwise, this program has been doing a real shit job.

Love the Secret World. However, once you’re done with the main story, just stop. Until Funcom release actual new story content, it’s been a constant rehash of the same content, with different grind mechanics implemented to encourage paid fees. You don’t need to worry about gear grind to get through the entire story,…

I think it would have certainly felt more normal, perhaps even comforting in that ‘yes, your family is dysfunctional, but it’s your family’ sort of way.

You know when you watch a movie at some period of life, it hits you just the right way to cause an emotional reaction? Maybe grief, fear, anger, etc., whatever it may be, but then you watch the same movie, at some other point in your life, and you’re like...’meh.’ There are those movies, and there are the movies that…

Look, I’m old, but I think I kinda get it. The dude has some X amount of fame and fortune thrown his way. Why is a GED that much of a priority? If I was running on all cylinders like this guy seems to be, I could give two shits what some “stick up the ass” judge wants to do for my education.

On the other hand, since…

I would love to have a few drinkie drinks in me, and attend something like this, because I’m very interested in the ins/outs of it all (no pun intended.) I would just wander around, fascinated by it all, in a lovely buzz. It would be wonderful.

This right here. ^^^

So, following the ‘projection’ mantra of yelling out what you’re already guilt of, he’s been warning us the entire time. Fake presidential material. Got it.

‘86 Ford Escort EXP. Due to the lack of rear seats, the entire rear was a giant sub box and amp rack. Kept it spotless. It had a minor alignment issue I never got around to resolving, but it was 80k on the odometer, and I only had a 10mi commute each day, so it was great! Sold it to upgrade to a new car, and saw it a…

Agreed. Both crab and lobster are...ok? But at the prices they demand, sheesh, may as well pass. And they’re not as versatile as shrimp! *invoke Bubba here with 101 ways to use shrimp.*

You’re dumping clean water out onto the desert ground; water meant for those potentially dying of thirst, and you’re probably humming some ‘Amurica, Fuck ya!” tune in your head while you berate the person who brought water to those in need, under the guise of national defense/anti-criminality.

A friend of mine is a probation officer. It’s a dichotomy that both amuses, and frustrates me, as I’m not big on authority/power types. But he’s holding ok so far. Anyway, one of the ‘perks’ is a little sticker that goes on his licence plate to signify he’s part of the law enforcement community. I’ve wondered if such…

I do get that, and “full on woman-hating mysoginists” is a subject that should be discussed with more depth. I guess I’m not a fan of social stigmas, and sometimes I can have a knee-jerk reaction to perceived other knee jerk reactions. In this case, the idea that people who are interested in these sort of things have…

Make the goblins some manner of rogue Mujahedin’sque freedom fighters that are tracking the party down for perceived atrocities to their clan. Hit and run ambushes, guerrilla strikes in the night. Slowly drain the party’s constitution with no sleep/rest, and concentrate attacks on one, so the party has to drain…

Same. Though mine was a restored ‘79 Z-28, beautiful and a beast, every rattle, smell, inconvenience, etc. continuously compiled to the point that the awesomeness of it all was eventually dwarfed by the desire of something more modern. However, in saying that, having tasted a bit of older muscle car fever, I still…

I have add in here that I do acknowledge the false equivalence dialog offered in the article, but I still think there is an argument to be made for the use of such a thing. Now, if the argument is laid out that these are replacements for actual people, or relationships, then I totally side with the ‘it’s not the…

For some, it’s more visual than the physical/emotional attachment. I guess we could distill a certain percentage of the population down to preferring an inanimate object over a willing, consensual partner, but would that percentage be any different than any other kink readily spoken about now?

Isn’t really just a large, very expensive dildo, though? Sure, it’s quasi-necrophilia role-play, but it’s an inanimate sex toy.

“Maybe I need to stop being so judgmental.”

Mid to late 90's, everyone with a set of Image Dynamic horns and some subs wanted to build up a Grand National. I think Richard Clark is still modifying his to this day.
