Gun confiscation seems like a very hard and dangerous thing to do.

How did that work out in other countries?

Worked great in Australia.

...I'm just imagining the feds going into people's houses to take away their property.

There had to be some sort of incentive or reimbursement like the FDR gold seizure.

Not suicidal? If you shoot up a school your life is basically over.

Anybody that has this level of foresight is either on some drug or doesn't have the intellectual or emotional capacity to be considered human.

Might as well be a zombie that found a firearm.

Went down to Florida and got this weird sinus pain. Could feel it in my upper gums.

I heard the curve of the Katana wasn't actually that significant for slashing compared to swords like the scimitar. Rather than an intentional design it's more a consequence of the differing hardness of the metal used. It's the top-heavy "axe" hacking that takes off limbs. A straight sword probably would've been better in that regard.

Saw already mentioned but longswords fell out of use with the emergence of plate. They started using stuff like rapiers and daggers.

...Yeah, take what I say with a grain of salt. Tons of the blind leading the blind.

Bad news guys.The leather bondage wasn't a good idea.

Got lured down a dark alley and some degenerate called me a sissy and provoked me into a duel. Lost my Raigeki ($20 street value).

Thinking of switching to MtG.

Played a lot of Shinovi Versus but I haven't found my girl yet. :(

I wonder how much money it took some people to learn and beat an arcade game.

You never know what might happen nowadays. It's probably a good idea to get an open carry permit.

Might dress like I'm into leather bondage just to show the guys I mean business.

I would have never thought to use the phrase before.

Now I feel like a bad boy saying "Polish death camps".

for $50? Would you do it again for an extra $10?

It's probably not intentional but I think the strangest and most unsettling thing in the books is the muggle world.

Thankfully, I have these youtube guys to explain the situation for me.

Personally I don't have the attention span to read more than five paragraphs or the memory to follow months of developments.

I never bought 5 for the GBA. I have others but used GBA carts are kind of pricey for a passing whim.

First cashier was new and needed help.

Second was a cranky old lady who kept trying to tell me I didn't have enough money. What's so frustrating is I don't think she ever understood me.

The last was the manager and he fortunately knew what to do.

I tried to purchase a gift Visa earlier today and the cashier didn't understand to hold onto the remaining dollars for the activation fee.

Literally took 3 cashiers and me visually breaking the dollars apart to explain the transaction.

I had a few pairs of shoes over the years. Dress shoes have a much harder rubber sole in my experience.

Probably because they're thicker but you get the idea.

-Top button chokes the Adam's apple
-Fitting sleeves roll up halfway when bending arms
-Back might rip holding arms out front, lol
-Upper arm movement generally restricted
-Tucked shirt isn't long enough for comfortable waist movement
-Shoes have terrible bend when walking

Years ago, I saw someone complaining about them and I guess I understand where they're coming from.

Sailed with Princess months ago. This kind of thing is hard to talk about with my family because of how expensive it was. Best thing I can do is put on a smile for them.

As a 20-something man, the most enjoyable thing was probably the deck view of the ocean and the food. Well, some of the restaurants were so pretentious they had an uncomfortable and heavy atmosphere. I remember having a hard time being alpha and waving my **** around because "top chiefs" served me spoiled fish. I mostly ate pizza and bratwurst at the food court.

It was kind of cool to have a Filipino dude make my bed three times a day. I'm not sure what he was trying to tell me with all the heart-shape chocolate he gave me.

The all-you-can-drink cards are a total scam though. My mother spent thousands of dollars just so my brother could have his soft drinks and liquor. It's somewhat embarrassing to talk about (but we secretly shared).

I guess cruises are mostly for old women and retired couples. Stuff like jewelry, spas, art auctions, cheap champagne, dancing and musical performances.

Popular religions aren't outlawed in modern China (might even be growing) but its presence and open worship is a complicated matter.

Perhaps it can be seen as hypocritical for Ham to make such demands for his employees yet support a state that openly calls for atheism for party unity?

I dunno, just a thought I had earlier today. I mean people make cases and overreact to much less things.

The reason flood myths are popular around the world is because civs like to use rivers for transport, fresh water, food, ect. The soil is usually fertile for crops because rivers tend to flood.

I remember hearing years ago there was an issue with Ken Ham using state taxes and religiously discriminating who he hires.

Christian employees had to make a statement that Noah's flood was an actual historical event or something along those lines.

PS2 might even be better than 360. Legendary library.

Imagine the press if he accidentally made a simple mistake and got 29/30.

I bet he checked it over like 50 times because that would've been really embarrassing.

Not a chance. That stuff is too weird for me. Like how would a relationship work with the suit?

However I'm open-minded to blond-haired, blue-eyed ladies from Venus, strong independent flower beds that don't need no man, and magical mermaids.

It was actually a flying saucer that was being perceived as an ICBM by the authorities.

Eventually it's going to be "leaked" that it was a rogue military satellite that fell out of orbit.

You saw here first, folks!

This reminds me of a pulse-tracker wristband I got for Christmas one year. Can you believe it needed an internet account to display offline data? I wasn't sure whether to laugh or be insulted by how they tried to downplay the issue in their abridged terms of service.

In much the same way, Ancestry keeps these records. They can say they have no intention of disclosing them but they have no choice in the matter when given the appropriate warrant.

You don't need to be a criminal to be at risk. Yours and even the test results from family members can used to build a case against you in court. I wouldn't worry too much if you're already in their system but the prospect of bad luck is something you have to live with.

When you're angry enough it's like your watching your body act on its own. It's unfortunate this kind of thing happens.

But then this guy wanted to go after his father, so you know he's really messed up.

Real collector's edition stuff:

I guess what you're really arguing is whether you can make predictions from examining the behavior of a large population of people.

Personally, I think there are outliers but averages are averages. But I guess the change in environment is also something to consider.

>Declare a humanitarian crisis
>Declare war on Haiti
>Completely destroy the government within a few hours
>Promise everybody free stuff to maintain order.
>Try to fix problems but realize much Haitian misfortune is by design
>???
>...Profit? Eh, maybe not.

It might be for PC too.

I've followed DkS1 all last year and Bamco ignored it every time a steam sale came around.

Though the pessimist in me is saying they just didn't want to jeopardize the switch sale.

Google is telling me it's one of the most difficult plants to grow commercially.

I guess the setup they had going in that particular spot was good for wasabi.

It doesn't seem like it would be that difficult to straight up copy from reference topo models.

But then it turns into a big embarrassment when you can't understand and reproduce what you're seeing.

Decades ago, we played cowboy quickdraw in the schoolyard and bet Morgan silver on the last man standing.

What is it like to be the elite 1% of mobile phone gamers?

I saw real wasabi once...

They were growing it in a cave.

Horizon Zero Dawn
Nier: Automata
Persona 5

vs.

Super Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

PC has the most diverse breakdown. Xbox One like Switch only had a few games that dominated the poll. I'm sure Cuphead is also on PC but whatever...

He could've abandoned his dream and lived the rest of his life in peace.

...But then he threw himself into a metaphorical wood chipper.

...Huh?

You have to be patient with me.

I'm looking for a free and engaging resource designed for native speakers.

I'm not sure if it's normal but my English teachers wouldn't touch stuff that with a 10-foot pole.

Sheesh, I'm still trying to understand Civ V.

Pentagon casually dropped one of its UFO programs. No one cares.

Where is the mysterious transfer planet X that appears in the 2nd season?

That was my design draft for a character. It had to do with A.I. and morality.

I was working with an old idea but it wasn't especially compatible with my newer idea.

I was trying to reconcile them but the nuance of a few words kept throwing me off. Later I had trouble finding the words with the right focus.

I guess more than anything I wanted to be sure I understood my direction clearly.

I spent several hours early this morning agonizing over a three-sentence paragraph.

Perhaps at the end of the day, we're all agents for some higher power?

Prof. Oak actually calls it tall grass in the beginning. In other words, grass that needs to be cut.

lol, alright, I understand. Just so you know there's a few moves and abilities that work on the overworld.

Oh, you guys. Never played gen 1-3 or had hyper cutter in Emerald?

The real secret here is tall grass becomes regular grass when cut.

I really wanted to be there for Sayori but in the end Monika is everyone's best girl.
