The PvE mode is actually very fun. I’ve been playing it for about 2 weeks on PC. There are definitely missions where I have to play solo because of a lack of players, but that’s maybe 1 out of 10 games. I’m not very deep into the game yet(just got to the second area of missions) but It’s a nice break from playing…

You’re conflating conservatism with the republican party. You can be a democrat and still have conservative ideas, and vice versa with republicans. Communism is a liberal ideology. If a democrat opposes communism, he is taking a conservative stance.

I helped my friend build his first PC last summer and wanted to buy a GTX 1070 when he was buying his, because my 770 is starting to feel its age. My reasoning was, “I’ll just wait for the price to drop.” Not once did I expect it to rise in price. I’m still stuck with my 770.

99% of the time, if I dive into a highly populated area and don’t find a shotgun, It’s guaranteed death by another person’s shotgun. The range on those things is ridiculous. A shotgun should not be doing 90+ damage from 15+ meters away, but it does.

I’ll go to my grave arguing that Tokyo Drift is the best of the series. It had the best setting (Tokyo), better characters, and a much more realistic plot. I’ve never understood how Ludacris’ character went from a regular ol’ street race organizer to somehow being one of the best hackers in the world. Tokyo Drift was…

I’m black. I’ve been called tons of racist terms over the internet. It has never deterred me from playing a game. Mute and ignore are always an option in games, or if you’re like me, you’ve been called so many names in the past that it honestly doesn’t affect you anymore.

This isn’t a race issue, it’s an economics…

They’ve been doing this type of stuff for years. First with the Patriot Act. Now it’s just seen as normal that our government unconstitutionally spies on it’s citizens. Then came the national defense authorization act. Republicans and Democrats always play the people as if they’re on opposing sides of the political…

UCF? Aren’t they something like the second or third largest college in the country population wise? Hardly overlooked. I lived just off of the UCF campus for a couple of years. That campus is gorgeous.

I posted a comment without reading the whole article. I hate myself now.

You’re equating our level of intellect and evolution with another potential species that could have existed billions of years before us and billions of light years away. You’re basing your statement purely on what we know, which isn’t much.

Fellow Rhode Islander here. I’m so thankful for all of the amazing Portuguese bakeries and restaurants we have in this area.

Yes! This is what these communities need more of!

Except not all 52 million are SNAP receipients.

I’m using them correctly. The fact that you can’t see how saying “significantly large portion” is subjective shows me that you don’t understand that the word “significantly” is what makes this statement subjective.

But it’s not “way the fuck off”. Approximately 52 Million people receive some form of government assistance. 5% of 52 million is 2.6 million.

5% of something can absolutely be significantly large. If 5% of the population became infected with a highly contagious and deadly disease, like Ebola, would that not be a significantly large portion of the population that we would have to worry about?

I agree with everything you said. I even agree with your estimates. However, even if 5% of the population on welfare programs abuses welfare programs, that’s still (potentially) about 2.5 million people, which I consider to be a significantly large portion of the population. (But I also understand that is subjective)

Excuse me, but perhaps I should’ve worded my comment better.

You know, I don’t think my opinion was rude, or insensitive. Would love to know where I went wrong if it was. But it seems like on the Kinja platform in general, the only comments that are approved are the ones that vehemently agree with the author.

The myth of the abuse of food stamps has been kept alive for decades, from the “welfare queen” of the 1980s to the recent obsession with SNAP recipients buying nothing but steak and lobster.
