If the Dodgers win the WS this year I hope they win something stupid like 130+ games, enough to cause some kind of pushback. Otherwise it's just a good season for them.

The answer is likely a cap, and the players union isnt going to have any of that. When the CBA comes up, they might push to strike before agreeing to anything that could limit player contracts.

Same

But I really wish they hadnt done it

The entire cabinet

Most of Trumps political allies are eventually betrayed and then turn against him. Might as well have 12 more people who will eventually hate the man.

Humanity is inherently evil

If a person has a chance to have power over others, they tend to take it and abuse it.

I seriously think that its simple a case of most Americans being fucking idiots and their brain cells cant do much more than comprehend that prices went up and they dont like it. Good luck getting them to understand general macroeconomics.

But at the bare minimum, a disgusting amount of Americans support facism

They only have a what? 4 or 5 year age difference? Not really a grooming situation. While it would absolutely have been problematic them getting together as teens? By the time Z rolls around? Not a huge deal, just a couple childhood friends who became more than friends. Not to mention the power dynamic in the relationship never really is tilted in eithers favour beyond the first adventure they went on together.

Four year difference. Honestly, she wouldnt have even noticed Goku until the 23rd Budokai. She saw him as a kid before then. And at the 23rd Budokai, Goku is 19 and Bulma is 23. Its fine.

I've only ever played the GBA version and forgot that a DS version even existed. I have a PSP copy of IV + TAY that I was going to play at some point in the next couple of months, but maybe I'll give the DS version a shot if it's that different (beyond the graphics, obviously).

Personally, I think the PSP version is the best, but the DS version is definitely worth a playthrough for the difficulty spike and the unique presentation. I havent played it since it first came out, but I believe it also includes a feature where whenever you go to the menu, it shows an internal monologue of Cecils based on what is happening in the game at that moment.

Imagine Trunks and Gohan being half brothers

Thered likely be no Goten, though. Which throws a wrench into the Buu Saga, since no fusion. Although maybe Gohan just steamrolls everything in that future. Dabura gets one shotted, and Babidi never has the stolen power to revive Buu.

I was getting wrecked in the underwater tunnel under Baron and I was getting pissed.

My first moment of realizing that the game was harder than previous versions was getting into random encounters outside of Kaipo before entering the underwater passage (I did not have Tellah yet - I was trying to level Rydia a bit), and I actually died in a random encounter. That was an eye opener, since Id beaten the game numerous times and had every step of the game memorized.

If Bulma cheats on Goku with Vegeta during the three years of training before the Androids, I dont think Goku would even care much.

A top 10 game for me. The DS version is fun in that it is more challenging than the other versions.

As long as they dont drift as much this time, I dont care what color they are!

Drift is fine. But black Joy cons? In this economy??

Sorry, but it sucks and to refuse to even consider getting one until they show us some colorful Joy Cons. Never mind that I use gray ones with my current switch.

My co-worker. She types faster than me and has much better penmanship.

A buddy of mine just randomly texted this question to some friends on a group text. Punch-Out is my favorite NES game of all time, but Id say Mega Man 2 is the more iconic game.

Figured Id make a topic here and see what people think as well, then share the results with him.

Half the people at Sega probably didnt even know what it was when it was announced

Did you watch Young Frankenstein?

@Winterking

Not yet. Gotta get it from the library, and I havent had the chance to get out there yet. I plan on doing it soon - Young Frankstein has been something that Ive wanted to watch, so this little game is a good excuse for me to kick my ass into gear.

Here, our National Insurance (I think equivalent to US Social Security) and tax is deducted straight from our pay, our employers are required to pay our tax to the government on our behalf.

Only if we have any additional income or you're business owner then we file our earnings and pay any additional taxes which the individual is responsible for paying.

Is it done similarly in the US or do you have a different system?

Kinda similar. Id youre employed, you have taxes taken out of each paycheck for federal taxes, state taxes, and a few other programs. And like you said, self-employed people pay their own taxes, typically through quarterly estimates on what they owe.

Where we may differ is that we all then need to do our taxes by a specific deadline each year (mid-April). The amounts taken out for us are estimates, as the actual figures may be higher or lower than what was paid due to a number of factors. So when we do our taxes, we either need to pay more by the deadline or we get a tax refund. And you might get a federal refund, but need to pay additional state taxes, vice versa, get refunds on both or pay extra on both.

Trust me, I cant stand Trump. But he didnt tell people to drink bleach. Early in the pandemic, he hypothesized methods to fight COVID-19, and this is what he said (these comments by him show a complete ignorance on basic concepts). In his ramblings, he started questioning of there is a way to get the things that were known to kill the virus (UV light and disinfectants) into the body. But it was him asking doctors some stupid questions on what could be done - he never said to drink bleach:

A question that probably some of you are thinking of if youre totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposedly we hit the body with a tremendous, whether its ultraviolet or just very powerful light, and I think you said that hasnt been checked, but youre going to test it. And then I said supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way. And I think you said youre going to test that, too. Sounds interesting, right?

And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so itd be interesting to check that, so that youre going to have to use medical doctors with, but it sounds interesting to me. So, well see, but the whole concept of the light, the way it kills it in one minute. Thats pretty powerful.

It wouldnt be through injections, almost a cleaning and sterilization of an area. Maybe it works, maybe it doesnt work, but it certainly has a big effect if its on a stationary object.

Was leaving work. Backed out of the parking space and started to drive (still in the parking lot) when I stopped, realizing my water bottle was on my roof. And on queue, it rolled down my windshield, the the ground and started rolling away. Had to re-park the car and go get it.
