This is 100% truth. The idea that the long boring stretch that makes up the middle 60% of Moby Dick is more tolerable than anything in ASoIaF is refuted by the fact that people only read one of them without being forced to.

No, that’s a kibipound.

You realize that scene is wildly inaccurate? A 76mm armed Sherman would easily penetrate a Tiger I at that distance.

Go Fisher of Men more likely, or some other Bibletales branded nonsense.

I should probably just walk away, but how is “don’t buy a home” full stop not terrible advice? Check out the calculator I linked: it’s literally mathematically provable that you do better owning than renting given certain rates, prices and tenors. Telling people not to buy a home, ever, is just about the worst…

I’m sorry, but this is incoherent. “Pay yourself first” is literally just a dumbed down way of saying “making saving money a priority.”

Okay, check back in forty years. I can tell you that in the short-term, as in the last 7 years or so, incurring debt has worked out great for me. I incurred six figures of debt to go to professional school (having done undergrad debt free with jobs and a full scholarship), and I am close to paying it off completely.…

This is just wrong. Debt is an essential element of any modern economy. No one is socking away $15,000 for school working a summer job, and I’m not even sure that could pay for school. Tuition maybe, but you have to live, eat, clothe yourself, buy books, transport yourself from place to place.

NO, IT’S A LOT MORE LIKE POSTING HARDCORE PORNOGRAPHY ON WEBSITES THAT PEOPLE READ AT WORK OR SENDING DICK PICS TO STRANGERS. WRITING IN ALL CAPS IS MORE LIKE HAVING A BUMPERSTICKER—IT MEANS YOU’RE PROBABLY OLD, IT’S UGLY AND SOMETIMES IT CAN BE FUNNY, BUT IT’S GENERALLY HARMLESS.

Customer engines? Custom engines?

I bet that as an NBA player, that line worked with cops before.

Deeply disappointed. No mention of what kind of Cadillac. Is this a mid aughts Escalade? A 5th gen Coupe De Ville (unlikely at that speed, I know, but I assume he was going as fast as possible)? A late ‘90s Fleetwood? Going that fast, but at the same time that slow, I feel like it’s got to be something out of the…

So, overwrought, hyperbolic, ostentatious throwbacks to previous design tropes intended to evoke a glorious past wrapped around its best attempt at a performance vehicle. In other words, BMW has decided to borrow Ford and GM’s style-guide for pony cars circa 2005/2006.

Did you read the article? This was a head-on collision with an F-250. Bicyclists ride with flow of traffic, so that means that Somehow Probably Not Going Down for Murder 2 up there crossed into the oncoming lane and then some to kill the cyclist. That cyclist could have been driving in pretty much anything smaller…

Or maybe it’s kind of unintentionally awesome that someone who played and loved these games as a child, with the virtually unlimited free time they enjoyed then relative to being a working adult with a family, can enjoy them again. I haven’t tried any of the FFVII reduxes yet, but one of my favorite gaming experiences…

The better way to write a rule like this, and the way that any contract drafter or legislator would recognize, is as follows:

Of all the things to complain about, this is the dumbest one. Unless specifically talking about the distinction between clips and magazines, “clip” is understood to include detachable magazines. This is like complaining about people describing shell fragments as shrapnel or turning maneuvers as flanking. In almost all…

So your view is that the History and Moral Philosophy teacher, who is clearly a mouthpiece for the author and literally a mouthpiece for the state, explicitly referencing FASCES in his description of their government indicates that it is not fascist.

Did you read anything else I wrote here, because repeating myself to person after person is getting really old. To the extent the book describes anything, it describes a fascist government. From elsewhere in this thread:

I can see this car being really great if you love the feel of driving and the sound of driving, but find the sight of driving terrifying.
