Disagree; the more Blizzard defines, the greater the chance that fans revolt against their decisions. They are smart in letting fans do so much of the work to create an Overwatch that they want for themselves.

That was beautiful, and I’m always upset that there is no animation scene in America that produces stuff like that. It’s like animation had a place for a hot minute after WWII, then was excommunicated to the land of ‘stuff for kids’ and eventually there was Disney and No One Else and even Disney stopped. Now, if you…

DSL? Where’s your mind? ;)

It’s been a very long time since I’ve seen a full face helmet that was DOT but not Snell or ECE rated. You had to dip into the $40 jobbies to find that. Open faced, probably more common (especially those awful skull caps/skid lids.)

I knew a girl that had a chin scar from a bicycle fall that wasn’t this severe, but she ended up going to a specialist that used a special device that basically cut tiny cross hatches into the skin where the wound was healing, which would break up the scar tissue as it formed and presumably lessen the incidence of the…

It was crazy, it looks exactly like effects makeup, like the kind that is in horror films - only it’s real. Reducing that cut to the line scar was actually some deft work by the cosmetic surgeon.

In a way, you could say that the mental scarring of the fallout of that incident is far worse than the physical scarring.

My favorite scam is/was foglights. Hundreds of dollars for what is about ~$30 in bulbs housings and wiring.

As others have commented, the Zero suit isn’t a suit as much as it is an interface medium/base layer. In fact, I have one myself:

Best plop - Warhammer 40k Dawn of War. Buildings shot out of cannons in outer space, land like meteors and unfold. Awesome.

Maxed out my 600RR bike in Florida on a road extremely like this. Straight for miles, median separates the traffic flows, nothing near the shoulders (almost no traffic going to cocoa beach during business hours). If I messed up, it would just be my bike and body careening about a half mile down the road

The movie isn’t really about that. Or rather I should say, the movie is fantastical. The rifles get some usage, but also as these ungainly objects they sort of weigh them down. Basically, the trailer sells this as a monster movie and it is not that.

I feel like the USA has a chance to bounce back in Mexico’s eyes if the next president is sufficiently apologetic about Trump and that administration - really drive it home that all this nonsense belongs to Trump and his crappy people and not the USA proper.

There will be amazing books written about the damage done and how long it will last (decade, a generation, quite possibly for the remainder of this age until climate catastrophe or world war re-orders the state of things). In the short term, the next president (if sufficiently worldly and cosmopolitan) will have a…

oh yeah, ‘like a boss’ was a thing

I say white tie every time

This has lots of potential to come true

do not insult my tractor by comparing it to an H-D

Well I think poster was more like ‘why is this Japanese guy all up the ass of a religion from the other side of the world that has almost no presence where he lives?’. Sort of like me as an American going off on a sub sect of Indian faith all the time would be a bit odd. But yes, your points stand.
