I’ve never been a huge fan but I could understand why people loved his stuff.

What is this complaint even about? I’m in there multiple times a week and the free samples never interfere with isle navigation or checkouts.

HUDTHOT.

Gamer subculture is cancer.

Yeah but in the end...none of the people involved in any of that are willing to make themselves uncomfortable to win. None of you are willing to potentially sacrifice everything to get there.

Yep, Chrono Trigger was 70 bucks out in the wild. So was FFIII (VI) and basically all the squaresoft fare. I think VI was actually 80 bucks at Electronics Boutique at the time, iirc.

Yes but Alpine events tho.

Leon, tell me about your mother.

Somewhat. I’ve seen people pull them out for completely stupid shit (like bar altercations) and I tend to make delineations between that and going 55 in a 50.

No, that’s not how any of that works and I have a feeling you’re at least mildly comfortable and don’t have to worry about whether or not your kids get fed today.

I’m actually related to an IAB officer. Yes. This generally changes the tenor of the conversation...immediately.

Fuck the FOP and their stickers.

How about: I’m related to multiple high ranking NYPD officers and I know that’s a cold hard fact. It’s part of a larger part of how you carry yourself though. If you’re a dick, you’re still getting a ticket.

I’m family with a number of high ranking NYPD and mine are personalized (as in the printing process prints my name onto the card).

This is the country we always were, it was just hidden from you because there was no internet.

That’s the one.

You know, I live in a pretty crunchy lefty fucking place in this country and I have never...ever...had a Prius or any other hybrid owner ever come up to me and start giving me shit about my driving preferences or get uppity about how great they are for driving a hybrid....even when I was driving the truck.

Most of the visual design was them trying to lower the aerodynamic drag coefficient as low as it could possibly go. I think the Prius still has the lowest one in production with something stupid like .25 , which is lower than many high end sports automobiles that cost multiple times what it does.

You mean their jugs of Carlo Rossi Paisano, of course.
