Right on! Picked that up this week to start up once I get the rest of the way through Yakuza 6. Enjoyed Odyssey so figure this should be a hoot as well. 

How many people will lose their jobs in the following restructure anyway? Nuke them to the ground and let someone less shitty replace them in the marketplace.

Back in 1999 I worked at a resort on Mt Hood and drove there every day in an ‘86 Jetta GLI with bald-ass tires (as broke mountain workers are wont to do); never had an issue.

touche!

“Reuters spoke to say Nissan might show its first quarterly loss since 2009:”

Imagine this:

The closest she gets to “asking for help” is launching a ground assault to secure strategic resources forcefully...
