you give yourself too much credit. i wasn’t comparing you to keith or nancy, the leaders who indulged in torture. no- given that you think watching a documentary designed to elicit a specific emotional response is more valid than actually meeting and interacting with the cult- i’m comparing you to the marks. 

you should have joined nexium. your responses would have been classic keith= deny loss, reframe the situation and declare victory. saltzman would have loved you

I was more annoyed by his enablers because he exhibited a lot of paranoid schizophrenia tics. What sort of jerk flies a dude out when you think he is going to his death each time?

i have written at great length on this site over the years about my personal experience with nexium and i have been very frank that the reason i didn’t click with them was because i was young, arrogant and very much not their target audience.

can i buy drugs from you?

ayn rands protagonists were fascists who raped women. active cruelty is the whole point of her philosophy

its pretty laughable to accuse someone who actually attended a nexium session back in the early 00's and met all of the principal actors and interacted with the rank and file of ‘couch-quarterbacking’.

when i attended, the core pitch of nexium was that people of means got there because they were better than everyone…

nexium worked because it was ayn rand filtered through pop psych. i have limited sympathy for all of the people harmed by it though, since ayn rands teachings are gross and keith was obviously ridiculous.

but its a larger indictment of these folks that they wanted to believe so hard that they deserved their money that…

sure, but my point is more that these guys (who grew up in a financial situation where successfully hunting squirrel was the difference between meat for dinner or no meat for dinner) were gleefully celebrating their draft dodging as a thing to be proud of to their young nephew.

they considered it a smart thing they…

Honestly, boomers pretend now that they were all against the dirty hippies dodging the draft, but the reality is that at the time well off people openly bragged about dodging the draft. My hard right republican uncle has told me he only enrolled in law school to get an educational deferment and his brother taught…

Eh, it looks on par with something like shivering islands, which would have been standard dlc model in the last gen. 10 hours of story, handful of new assets and voice work and some new skills. But they’re only charging 50 bucks instead of 70, so it's not like their asking full price for it, which I think makes it…

in the old days we used to call these things ‘expansion packs’ and not ‘stand alone content experiences’ or whatever marketing has it now, but it is basically just the former

if you find yourself high in oswego ny, go get the al roker special from the oswego sub shop. you will not be disappointed

yeah, the limited space isn’t great and the add-on price is so high you might as well just buy the X, but from the preview copy reviews, apparently you can plug any normal USB external drive into either console (and i think PS 5 too) and play any legacy games and swap next gen games off of it pretty fast.

also, i know…

thats why i think the S is smart. my tv is from 2008ish but it still works great, so i’m not going to chuck it. but, my xbox one launch edition is noticeably long in the tooth playing last years AAA games, let alone stuff like cyberpunk.

so for 300 bucks i can get a lot of the load time stuff, some upgrade to graphics…

that’s what i’m going to go for the S. i own one tv, its from 2008 and it works perfectly. maybe my eyes are getting bad, but i don’t see much difference with 4k, and i don’t consume a lot of physical media, or media where 4k is even available.

i figure, why spend an extra 200 bucks for a bunch of stuff i likely wont…

the irony being that he doesn’t live in a swing state and should want to vote for the down ballot races, but is so rich that none of it matters

No, because there were two separate wars- japan/china and england (and colonies)/germany. The incident that brought those two wars into one unified war that we now recognize was Japan’s attacks against the us, dutch, english and french that they launched because the US had imposed sanctions that had crippled the…

time to introduce them to mr. chainsaw
