Gotta admit I figured Nagy was better than he’s shown to be this year.

“Sleeping Dogs” features a facsimile of this exact block. It’s a GTA style 3rd person crime game, but you slap people silly with martial arts combos in the streets ad sidewalks of Hong Kong. Not sure if it has the garage. They take some artistic license.

$250,000? What kind of PUA, ladder theory, incel shit is that? Grow a personality if you can’t grow in height. Christ, I’d want a quarter mil in shopping money per year to spend my life with a boring man whining about his height all the time too.

I remember OKTrends (I think that’s what it was called). Y’all came to the conclusion that the average man overstated their height by 2 inches. Which, when I used the site, gave me a dilemma. Do I list my actual height (a bit under 6') and let everyone assume I was 5'6", or “lie” to better slot myself into my relative…

😳🤯😲😯😮😧😦😨

Boeing is *not* going out of business over this. The 737 MAX isn’t even done for. There’s still orders for 5,000 of the things.

No seven-foot-plus person is normal.

Gene Roddenberry added godawful lyrics to the Star Trek theme solely to claim the royalties on it. He was petty and money grubbing like that.

That’s because it was a term invented by conservative talk radio to dismiss accusations of racism. “I’m not racist, I’m just politically incorrect. Aren’t I edgy? Defying social norms?” Nobody is actually pro-PC, that’s like referring to yourself as “pro-fetus murder”.

We might be able to ID a Scotsman, but depending on how thick the Welshy-speak is we’ll either assume English or possibly some eastern Europeans from somewhere so deep behind the iron curtain they just realized the cold war is over.

Electric sharpeners, and a lesser extent manual-pull through devices, ruin knives. They just tear the edge up. Electrics have the lovely habit of also taking way more material off than is necessary.

My response would have been “sir, I’m coming from [random city half-way around the world where the time is after 5PM] and I’m still on their time.”

Yeah, but the whole point of Vanguard is “don’t care, buy everything”. They’re deliberately apolitical, and don’t even rock the boat when their reps have seats on a company’s board. Passive investing means not getting bogged down in that kind of stuff.

VW was *created* by the Nazis. Why do you think it’s called Volkswagen...people’s car? It’s literally named after Hitler’s plan to give every German family an affordable car.

I dunno. Saying the US was stolen from natives is like saying France was stolen from the Romans. Don’t get me wrong, fuck Andrew Jackson, but the conquest (which is what it was) of America is exactly as legitimate (or not) as any other country.

“No” means “no”. “Not here” means “no”. “No” means “rape” I mean, it’s sad as fuck I have to explain this to someone in 2019, but here we are.

1) Nah son. That scene was rapey as hell. You don’t need to “be in their heads” to create a scene that avoids that tone. Literally every Sean Connery-as-James Bond-seduction-by-sheer-manliness scene managed to stay on the “not rape” side of the line. You just have to direct appropriately and get the actors onboard…

There was that run of Wonder Woman right at the start of New52 that was basically a huge Greek epic, involving very creative renditions of the old Olympian gods. That was awesome, and seemingly fresh.

I’m not sure Mac ever cracked 10% of the overall PC market.

Trump is an incumbent with a strong economy. Normally, that’s grounds for a romp. However, he’s deeply unpopular. His polling over time tracks very well with Gerald Ford. His head-to-head against a bunch of mostly no-name Democrats are withing a couple %, which is pretty damning this early on.
