This topic reminds me of that teenager several years back in the 2004-2007 range that had CP on the computer. Claimed it was someone online who installed it from somewhere else online. So the family got rid of the computer(was the home computer) and said they'll never use a computer or the internet again due to how it destroyed their family.

This also just reminded me of when I was in the 13-15 year old range we'd go to this one neighbor to hang out. His dad got charged with having CP a few years later. Hmmm... oh well.

The train should be held accountable and serve maximum rail time.

Several tons, wheels shaped like giant pizza cutters with pinpoint pressure against another metal... why the hell would you go under it without serious reasons. If he was trying to hide from trouble then it's plausibly understandable if not questionable. If he was doing it to mess around or check things out just because, then I have no sympathy. It still sucks to lose natural mobility like that, but c'mon...

Trains and train cars are long, usually longer than 2-2.5 sedans long. The wheels are large and there's shadows. Multiply that by around 50-100 and that's a lot of hiding spots. The comments about checking wheel wells is right. I try to see if I see anything out of place, but I don't always check up under the engine bay, inside the wheels, between the brakes and hub. Even if I did, something can crawl into place at any moment while getting in or at a stop sign. Truck drivers are required to do a pre-trip inspection every day to check every nook for wear and tear. I'm sure conductors/engineers do the same, but you can't catch everything especially if it can move in on its own.

Think 3, something about them all just seemed, meh... It was a torchic and the other 2 didn't exactly ring my bell at the time.

That said I did notice an odd trend/pattern. Gen 1 charmander originally, then bulbasaur. 2 Cyndaquil originally, then Chikorita. 3 Torchic, never restarted/returned since there wasn't a remake or reason to at the time. 4 Turtwig. 5 That snek thing.

I always pick grass, sometimes fire when younger. I've never picked a water... probably because there's a boatload of water. Which makes it a terrible boat, but anyways.

Yes, the sight of a gun doesn't bother me. It's the moron wielding it that does. If it's in a holster or left alone I'm 100% fine with it, but once they start handling it or pointing it in any direction I get a bit itchy.

Even if I know the person or they're trained. Had a cousin roughly 1 year younger than me once pick up his uncle's 1911 and aim it at stuff in the house. I asked to see it, so I eject a full mag and clear the round from the chamber. So that was cool, playing with a fully loaded unsafed handgun and he didn't even know how to check or handle it.

*sighs* People should really learn the basics.

Adding to the above, walmart or a mall is more likely to have someone with a ccw, hell there's even gun/sporting stores in the area that could have one unlocked and loaded if so needed.

As for bullying, it's far more satisfying and thus driving to shoot down your peers and those that caused you grief. If you're at the point of shooting your school up you're probably wanting to destroy those that caused it to get revenge or remove your problem. Random strangers shopping for good deals that have zero connection to your strife just isn't the same.

I'm not saying blowing your classmates away will solve things, if anything it only makes things worse. Now you've sealed your fate and can't move on over time and let them get shafted down the road by something like a hurricane.

Depends on what and where they are. Usually I give the slight talk to when it's a jumper or those tiny house spiders that only grow to be about 2-3 mm in diameter max. I tend to let them be because they don't really do anything harmful.

Brown recluses have to go, and I know I've gotten a few that might not have been and just a poorly colored/placed wolf spider.

When I was younger there was a massive outbreak of golden orb weavers. You could literally stand and look in a direction to see 10-15 females with 2-4 foot webs. I being the only brave one to go near em commited genocide and killed easily 100 or more. They're still around, but not as many or intrusive. I try to atone for it and I didn't do it because I hate spiders... it's more like we can't be having giant strong webs on everyone's front and back door and 10-20 in each yard. It'd also be just as wrong to relocate them to someone's yard down the street, because that's how some species get spread... like crazy ants *shudders*

I didn't care for the junction and level scaling, as it seemed needlessly complicated/unfinished. Think it literally punished you for leveling. Had a cousin who basically power grinded on the first island outside of balamb till around level 40 and wouldn't even do Dollet till I was like "why". Then all I heard was the local folk trash on 8 and how glorious 7 was.

As for story, I actually liked the story outside of maybe 1 or 2 spots where it becomes a stretch.

Didn't feel the same for 7... just didn't really grab me outside of nanaki's sweet red ass.

which dragon dildo did you get

Hey, don't assume.

It could be canine or equine just as well.

Based on the body lines it looks like a 75-90 mercedes, the exact model eludes me because even I dislike their naming system at times. It's either truncated due to the lens style such as a fisheye lens causing distortion, or motion/border. If you look at the house itself you can clearly see distortion.

I also wouldn't put it past them that it's actually like that. There used to be, and probably still is, a VW minibus someone chopped and made roughly half as long. It's about as long as it is wide and totally destroyed the original purpose, but damn it's an eye catcher.

The closest I can get is a 1980~ Mercedes SL coupe. Either it was butchered or it's just in the weird spot of the lens/pictures. For further narrowing down it's closer to 75-80. Alas that's the furthest I can go because there's no telling what powerplant it has.

Not gonna lie, I was thinking the other day of how part of me misses when I got all my gaming information from magazines like OPM and such. You wanted gaming news you went to a store to look at the gaming selection, hit up the magazine rack, or lurked the school yards.

I found I was both disappointed more and less. When a game got canceled or delayed I had about 3-6 months of ignorance. Damn Gran Turismo 4 was like a drug, stringing me along so long digitally and paperly. Then it finally came and well... it was ok I guess.

I also miss demo discs. >:

The real winner is Full House.

They found the best property in the bay area, because it's bigger inside than the volume it takes up. That's good value.

It also has the feel goods lesson bit, where we adore them for their ignorance/naivity. ADORE

True answer I'd give Roseanne and Home Improvement as there's something about the house that seems 98% believable and it has enough pro/cons. I guess nothing else dug enough of a hole and I don't watch newer stuff much.

Lol @ gambling

This reminds me I should also point out they've gotten tickets for like 40ish years, not won once. They however won't ever spend money at a casino or a betting table of sort, because that's gambling. Lotto tickets apparents don't count for some reason.

There's nothing wrong with doing it regularly, but when it becomes the sole master plan while making terrible decisions and literally throwing money away on random stuff that rots away(cough, ATV) for years then it becomes a bit of a problem.

I don't do it, but know someone who does... "someone else got my 162 million" is a literal quote.

It's the same as flashing, others must witness the marvel that we have to tolerate a shared existance.

Witness me!

Riiidge racerrr

That was probably one of the best expo/unveils. I feel there's another word for it, but it's eluding me.

The comments about CA needing tougher gun laws... hmm, not sure if they're serious or not. Seeing as they have some of the strictest of the states last I checked. Then again they probably have most of the illegal firearms in circulation as well.

I'd say wear it if you want. The only concern I'd have is if someone's a potential thief and accidental scrapes. Reminds me of someone who had a 30-40 dollar watch and it was alright, but got really offended/mad at me when they walked past me too close and caught their watch face on the side of my pants causing them to freak out that I messed it up. I was literally just standing there focused elsewhere. Acted like I keyed their car or something.

I'd be pretty miffed if a pricey watch got trashed by something randomly small. Had a digital watch become unusable because some nitromethane splashed on the face of it, ate away the finish completely.

You could just not wear it every single day I guess, but downside there is they might start commenting/noticing when you do actually wear it. On the other hand if you're not wearing it or using it to tell time... what's the point of it. It's meant to be worn and tell time, not sit in a drawer to rot forever. If it was one of them fancy art watches I could justify stowing it away for safety, but based on a brief google search it doesn't seem to be one of those.

Damp/wet carpet

I hate some bathroom mats that are overly long at the shower for such. Whoever decided carpets work in a bathroom is an absolute lunatic. Dry carpet is ok. Something about when it's damp just makes me feel like something wrong on so many levels, because it's moist/damp, but it's also moving due to the fibers.

Yes, this includes a freshly shampoo'd/cleaned one.

Thought this was gonna be about those flight simulator mods/add-ons.

Yes, some really get them. I can't really comment on GTA:O, but if people are still playing it then chances are they're blowing cards on something. That or finding other means since it's almost mandatory.

I kinda miss when a sticky bomb and uzi was all you needed. He who had a sniper rifle was almost untouchable.

Could also be Kharjo if I remember the spelling.

Even he, while not being super special, is better imo. Helps keep you warm with that fur in the snow vs lydia's hairy legs.

So it was Kharjo. <3 Kharjo

Stealing spiders wtf

Depending on what they are, they can fetch a pretty penny... like 200-600 usd a pop for example. Though this does make me wonder how and where they're storing them, because I can see stealing 20-50, but 7000 is a lot to handle.

Hope whoever took them knows what to do, because otherwise it'd be a senseless expensive genocide that could go south if any are truely dangerous.
Edit, just noticed it even mentions the estimated value... yeah, what I figured. Probably to hock off on that market somehow.

Suppose it also depends on what you're driving, but if the vehicle is suitable and you're comfortable with it then just don't think about the distance. Just means you have to do it a bit longer. The only real problem is mechanical issues or getting lost, but if you have gps or navigational sense you should be ok so long as you can avoid plowing into debris or some other car.

To those saying driving x distance is fine. I remember some years back I borrowed one of my grandparents' cars. I drove it about 5-6 miles and was near terrified the whole time. Because it had zero roadfeel and the steering had a good 5 inches of play before inputting left/right. Hitting just 45mph in that thing felt like I was doing 60+ with an uplift wind and without a steering wheel. A literal incarnate of those dreams where you want to do something, but feel disconnected/weak.

The thing was totaled a few years ago, not by me but at least no one else has to suffer it.

You should be fine, just handle it like any other time you drive... pending traffic/weather.

I remember how rough Facility was. Not because it was hard to fight through, but rather the gas and narrow timing. It'd be fine a mission or two later, but it was literally the second mission and you've gotta know how to use your mines and other stuff. I found a lot of the others easier, because it was mostly just "shoot everything that moves, and then shoot it some more even if it's not"

Think it was Jungle and Statue park I hated, simply because I had a crappy CRT with damage to the screen, so the top half was red and the bottom right had a triangle of pink. It made certain things really annoying visually and probably why I'm fine with my 1080p tv and not griping about the lack of 4k this or that. For the record I didn't damage the tv, it was my cousin or brother... had to put up with it for several years and it drove me crazy.

This would potentially still work for one of my cousins. Not that I would use it personally, so it could still get some use if something just so happened to line up in fate. Name is too specific, so I could see them at least patching that part out, but in the above situation it'd be perfect as it stands.

They're either over trying to be funny, trying to acknowledge they're a stupid commercial, or just shock value. Everything else is too bland to grab my attention and thus not on the list of offenders.

Say what you will about that plumber's crack liquid plumber/draino commercial, it's not as bad as some of the medical stuff. My older relatives will sit lamenting about the bit of ass cleavage and how nasty and distasteful it is. Ok, it could have been better... but at least it's not someone's fungus crusty foot with notable issues just distorted across the screen out of nowhere while you're trying to eat. Then there's the ones that go on and on about medical issues that could arise like severe bloody diarrhea and such.

Think my latest dislike is all the testosterone boosters. They have some lulz discount codes though, such as "nut" and "rod" because that's not hiding anything. They've gotten to the point I'm honestly kinda hoping someone takes too much and causes testicle shrinkage or boobage. This way they can really feel like a real man again.

I'm doing my part to destroy the environment by 'chain smoking' AA's.

Other than the plastic on the outside cover, there's nothing bad for the environment in alkaline batteries.

Maybe not, but there's still more logistics involved with production, transit, and taking up space as they end up somewhere. Probably balances out somewhere vs lithium ion. I don't consume them as much as I used to for various reasons, but it wasn't difficult at one point to go through a pack in about 3-4 weeks, which puts it at 260-340 a year. Since things vary over time I'll ignore a potential 40 or so because I feel even that's excessive. So being lazy/generous that'd be almost 1300-1500 over 5 years, probably more like 1000-1200 tops. Or I could just get rechargables twice(to rotate) and suck down the power periodically.

The real horror story is when you do math on the costs over time. Either way you look at it, it's not exactly helping.

On the other hand a trickle charger can malfunction and you get a failed battery leading to fire/combustion, but any battery can fail. Which is why when I was fiddling with a UPS I had a moment of "..." when someone got onto me about "That ain't one of those batteries that set fire is it" when the whole galaxy thing was going on.

I'm doing my part to destroy the environment by 'chain smoking' AA's. Ofcourse I don't actually put them in my mouth or light them on fire, but I'm sure if I were to do so it'd be a blast.

Suck the life out of two, then swap em out for the next pair of victims. Then right into the garbage the depleteds go as I ignore the image of the crossed out garbage can, because I'm not driving to Lowe's or whoever deals with them with a mountain of battery corpses.

You can also alternatively use a usb to micro usb cable if you wish. I've not tested whether it'll work by powering the controller from another source and using the wireless signal to connect. It'd probably work, but jamming the cable in there might also reduce what little lag lingers.

The previous comments remind me of when some were complaining about the nintendo DS and its internal battery. Some going on to say they were getting third party battery replacements because the official one was far too expensive. I believe at the time the difference was around 3 or 4 usd savings, with the nintendo one being 15ish dollars. Oh boy, what a bargain, voiding any repair/warranty on a DS for 3 whole dollars using something that might damage it. I'd at least understand store purchase vs online order plus waiting.

I blame RNG.

Could also be the exotic phalli they don't want to miss out on. Which is why when I see a damn quad/feral with a human dong I can't help but silently rage.

Also this, extremely unironically.

XD

Seriously though: My personal preference is for anthros to have the non-human equipment, but it's perfectly acceptable either way. Ferals should always have the non-human equipment because the whole point of ferals is that they're 100% the way the animal looks IRL, just sentient and able to communicate through human languages.

I'm not a fan of human junk on an anthro either, but at least it makes more sense. You're making them humanoid enough that some trade offs can be tolerated such as feet/paws. Prefer digitigrade myself, but hey.

Think my favorites are when it's a fairly accurate non-anthro and they have an uncircumsized human bit and the animal sheath. Like, c'mon... that's where you draw the line? >:|

I'm also gonna probably agree with that comment on it being more common. I've seen loads of well done female furs, but there's so many varied males you can't help but like em too so the line tends to blur and tickle some triggers. Plus, it's one of the few ways to have a double dong and it be "ok" compared to some of the creations.

Several years ago when I had a pet snake that regurgitated its meal and the house got really hot due to lack of AC and summer.

It was real nice going into a really hot roadkill smelling room or few... Snakes are cute, but I hated the smell/maintenence they bring.

garlic is best raw or

enjoy your botulism

If I ever get it I will.

You could get that anywhere, one segment of a raw garlic clover doesn't mean it's a 100% chance. You could even eat raw eggs and get away with it. Is it worth it? Probably not.

You can get tetanus from other sources that aren't rusty or even metal, so...

I haven't been nailed by botulism, tetanus, or salmonella, let alone food poisoning so I must be doing ok. I don't count that time I ate all them slim jims once, that was probably just what happens when you eat a box of slim jims.

Depending on what it is you can actually cook out/remove the benefit to something. For example garlic is best raw or lightly cooked. If it's cooked too much it doesn't provide its health benefit, just some flavor.

Which reminds me of the first time I finally tried a bit of raw garlic. If you haven't done it yet I warn you if you try a raw piece of it by itself. I honestly thought I messed up somewhere... was a great night/day and a learning experience. I assume it wasn't an allergic reaction, because I'd probably be dead from it, but didn't expect such a numbing sting.

As for other examples, many stick ranch dip on their celery, broccoli, carrots, etc which negates the calories they saved. Even salads are guilty of this when they add so much cheese/dressing/meat.

SoundNetwork posted...

why do all the vegetables in your life have to be steamed? what about stir fired? baked? deep fried? roasted?

I never said all of them have to be steamed or else.

I can and have eaten raw, steamed, mixed with something else, stir fried, roasted, boiled, etc. I'm just saying that if you're a kid and forced to eat raw broccoli or something you don't like, chances are you're gonna associate all veggies as bland/terrible and not want anything to do with them. I even ate the various forms when younger, but it still took me a bit to come around to some such as a broccoli. I used to hate it, but steam it or mix in some melted cheese with steamed, possibly other forms I'll inhale it. Used to eat raw carrots, but don't care for them now. Tastes/viewpoints change.

I can't say much on those that only eat steamed or nothing, but it's probably how the parents like them or finally got the kids to eat em.

Delcatty

It'll be a cat that's also clean/tidy. Also ear and tail tufts.

Usually because it's raw and that's unappealing. It needs something, or perhaps just age, to help.

If it's seasoned, steamed, or mixed with something like cheese for broccoli or ranch and raw it's usually fine. Downside is you now get calories from the cheese and ranch dip. I blame the fact they get forced to eat the most unappealing form of it, and it becomes what they associate with all of it. I used to dislike veggies, but once I got into my teens it became tolerable/fine, such as broccoli and cheese, steamed/cooked whatever, mashed potatos mixed with corn off the cob so that you can use it as a bonding agent. There's healthier forms I've grown accustom to, but it took time to get past the barrier.

I think it's because they're given flavorless unloved generic stuff and think all of it's bad. Haven't come around yet. Bet there was a vegetable you weren't thrilled with, so imagine associating that with all of em due to bad experiences.

I blame RNG.

It was either the last time or the time prior to that, we got an extra box of nuggets and asked about it, since we didn't order it and thus weren't sure if they mistook who the order was going towards. The employee, or manager it seemed, looked at the print out and took the nuggets. Before we could even offer to pay for em she dumped em right into the trash.

It was one of those actually depressing/heartbreaking to see a box of fresh chik-fil-a nuggets toil on top of the garbage. ): Seriously, we would have just bought them, but to see them go to such fate was like the matrix "Not like this"

Side by side, so that I can pretend to be a snek and put it on either facial cheek and wiggle the hips.

I'm sure they'll be impressed.

I'm sure the other cheeks would work too, but not have the same result.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean lol

Basically one on either cheek, then wiggling/shaking the hips so that it thumps whoever gets the honor on each cheek alternatingly.

The placement has no real benefit, might actually have downsides when trying to aim during a pee for example, but could be worked around. It's just the above mental picture seemed too good to pass up.

Both

Sometimes even the regret of seeing nipple can cause war.

Wars have been fought over the female nipple, some large and some not so large.

Nipples lead to blood and gore from the uncontrolled frenzy.

Gore is ok, because it's what we all have inside, blood. I don't have no female nipple beyond that brief development stage. ):

Cars also tend to devalue pretty rapidly. Only in a few cases it blows up in price, but you gotta hope it works out 10-30+ years in the future, and daily driving such a vehicle will destroy its value and just add stress.

Usually when you dump 20-30k into a car you're lucky to get 2-6k out of it when selling. This assumes it's just a generic "haul my ass" wagon.

i still have no idea what the hell is in a controller that needs updating

Firmware.

but... why does that need updating

To enable use of the chat adapter in the old controller(probably newer design too), that one that allowed 3.5mm to mount into the usb thingy at the bottom. Enables the use of third party headsets. Allows the ability to use the button remapping feature on the dashboard/devices.

Might be something else. Those are all touched upon/enabled by a controller firmware update.

There's been a few system updates in the last month or so, can't exactly comment on games/apps, but do know I've experienced a few suprises.

"I'll just update this game for the sake of doing it so I don't have to later, shouldn't take long" 48 gigs later... ugh. I rode it out though, but your mileage will vary based on how many games and which.

I haven't had a knob/dial since around, 2003? Maybe even 04 and that was a keyboard from 2000. Seen plenty of button press ones, even current one has it and it'll go up/down by 2%. I really love its placement on this keyboard because it's easy to accidentally do if you get too frisky.

Iron, because it has its own damn handle unlike the uncultured others that allow others to grope them freely.

Shame it was replaced, but I guess having access to an older box allows it to carry over.
