I used to know a super conservative “christian” guy that refused to be facebook friends with any women he wasn’t related to, even if he knew them pretty well in real life.

Why would Nintendo artificially constrain supply? They want to make as much money as possible, that means selling as many consoles they can.

not just college sports. college basketball. college basketball in north carolina is like football in Texas or Jesus in most of the fly-over states.

the attack didn’t lead to fewer touring opportunities. it lead to a boom in interest that has since subsided. for a little while ice skating was always on TV.

The interruptions aren’t constant though. it’s a design choice that results in emphasizing non-melee combat in some situations. for the most part you’re able to clear mobs without breaking your weapon (unless you’re beating enemies to death with a skeleton arm or something).

the game also isn’t paused until you hit a…

you get a big warning and the weapon menu-ing couldn’t be easier.

as someone that values Nintendo games more than most other titles and skipped the WiiU, the switch was an easy purchase for me. Zelda will keep me busy until Mario Kart and the new Mario platform game arrive.

weapon durability really isn’t that big of a deal in BOTW once you start playing though. after you’ve upgraded…

I know the feeling, but Nate Silver was actually the predictor who was most bullish on Trump’s chances. He said that a Trump victory was only a normal polling error away from being a possibility.

I have no idea where this idea of “new” immigrants keeping a tighter hold on their cultural identity than previous generations did comes from. Take a good look around any city or community in the US. First generation immigrants have always chosen to largely associate with people of similar backgrounds. Every city in…

That isn’t Emo he’s listening to, that’s Linkin Park.

minor correction, as long as the racer is running 11 speed, it doesn’t matter if the cassette is sram, shimano, or campy. They’re all on the same chain pitch and cog spacing now.

The issue is that there just aren’t comparable aluminum rims. A deep section carbon wheel offers a pretty massive aero advantage vs the 30mm max depth you can get away with using aluminum.

What’s really odd here is the Papa Shango and the Godfather are the same person.

They do that. It’s called the virtual console.

I am now 90% sure Trump established his view of Japanese people from the early 00's show Banzai. It was a British spoof of Japanese game shows that aired on Fox in 03. This is an actual bit from the show.

Don’t mistake my reluctance to wreck for mercy. Crashes hurt.

as a cyclist who has had someone randomly jump in front of me despite there being no one else in sight and ample space, I always say “on your left” when I ride on a mixed use trail. I figure saying something is less annoying to both parties than a 15 mph collision.

Counter point: Many walkers on mixed use paths have horrible behavior. They’ll be listening to music too loudly to recognize that a cyclist is behind them, let alone respond to a bell or voice. They’ll take up the entire width of the path, many times even beyond if they have a dog on a leash.

The quality of the troop depends an awful lot on the quality of the adult leadership. If you have a macho asshole as the scoutmaster you’re going to have macho assholes for scouts.

My scoutmaster was not a macho asshole. At our first troop meeting after the September 11th attacks, he said something that has stuck with…

this has to be the third or fourth conservative boycott of starbucks I’ve heard of in the last couple years. there were at least two boycotts over the lack of religious imagery on their holiday cups.
