I believe it’s “hard headed, fuck you all”

I don’t know who Japan sent to the Olympics, but most of the best MLB players did not play. The US basically fielded a AA squad.

Seriously.... if somebody, male or female, is passed out on the lawn or the sidewalk, what I expect to happen in any sane society is for people to (1) maybe shake them and ask “hey are you alright, do you need some help?”, (2) call the police or other authority to check on them, (3) at least just ignore them if…

Can I get a Popeye Jones?

PA resident here. We had a teacher go to jail for a “relationship” with a student but he got hit with both statutory and institutional because the “relationship” started when she was 15 and continued until she was 18.

I think that’s it. It’s an expectation and power balance thing. Just like a psychiatrist shouldn’t have sex with a patient and a prison guard shouldn’t have sex with a prisoner. The imbalance of power is too great that even if both parties say they’re willing they can’t really consent.

Probably b/c teachers have institutional power over students which puts both side into a precarious situation with this significant power imbalance. If you’d raise age of consent to 18, that would cause all kinds of problems. Every 18 yo would be in trouble by having sex with his/her 17 1/2 yo partner.

Jaws is still-right-now one of my favorite games. Take that for what you will. Hit me up if you want me to write a really long story about why it's amazing.

RC Pro-Am, which inspired Mario Kart, was one of my favorite games on that system. It was essentially unbeatable. Any mistake, no matter how minor, would result in the yellow truck entering god mode and blowing your truck off the track.

Kid Niki Radical Ninja. That game has to be the most suicide inducing game ever created. My friends and I would play it hours on end in an attempt to beat it. It always came down to the bubbles level. Most games had a recognizable pattern if you watched long enough. It was how we learned how to beat most video games.…

I hooked up my old 2600 a while ago, and my Dad sat down to play ET. He beat it in like 20 minutes. To this day, he is content in saying that was the worst $40 he ever spent (in 1982).

I spent an entire weekend with my friend beating this, and the trick he had found was that there was in infinite soldier respawn point (where they parachute in) where you could grab those little bullets to get more life. We did that for about 2 hours straight and then had enough extra lives and hit points to get…

Jaws. You could never kill him. NEVER!
