Granted it's far less than the deaths that can be caused by major Earthquakes, Hurricanes or Tornadoes, and many of them are the result of car accidents so if you just don't go out you'll be fine.

Why in the world would he use his real name? Better yet, why wouldn't he just have one of his flunkies do the transaction instead?

I'm not saying it's impossible for Cormier to be that stupid, but this really sounds more a thing Jon Jones would do.


Without photo ID he wouldn't be able to get service or pay with his card. For the other option, it would mean he has to tell someone he wants to fuck a hooker. Some guys don't trust anyone with that kinda information.

Someone with Daniel Cormier's money could easily get a fake ID and a credit card in a matching name.

The UK has very little of that. There's no volcanoes there at all, nor do they ever get hit by hurricanes. Tsunamis are also practically non existent (a quick search of UK tsunamis has yielded only one result and it happened in 1755), and as long as you don't go too far north they have fairly warm winter temperatures (for example the average daytime temps for London in January are 46ºF). They do have occasional earthquakes and tornadoes, but they're no where near as frequent as in parts of the US, nor are they anywhere near as powerful.

If they actually do that, they're signing their own death warrants. Bluster, and if it's NOT bluster, maybe the US will find shut them the hell up and get in there and do something without the rest of the countries being all "oh no, let's just leave them alone while they build nuclear arms".


This. Idk what they'd gain by blowing Guam. It's a US territory, but it's got a tiny population in the grand scheme of things. The US would certainly glass NK at that point. Even with fallout to Seoul and SK, the US would be obligated to do something if struck.

All this would end in is the destruction of NK, and the deaths of thousands upon thousands of SKs as well.

Guam is a large military location for the US. Several naval and airforce bases are located there. Should the US ever actually launch an invasion of North Korea the first troops, ships and planes on location would probably be ones from Guam, so by taking it out in the preemptive strike it would slow down US retaliation efforts.

It's just like how the US nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki and not Tokyo and Osaka, it's not about killing civilians, it's about hitting strategic military and industrial targets.

if I'm going to be totally honest, I didn't know the show was still going on.

but to me, Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park are more recognizable names than their co stars, after looking it up.

This.
Daniel Dae Kim is from Lost and also Johnny Gat and Grace was from Battlestar Galactica. Never even heard of the other two.

The only reason anyone might have heard of Scott Caan before Hawaii Five-O was either the fact that he's James Caan's son or from Entourage which he had a recurring role in. Maybe Ocean's Eleven too as he was in that, but it was hardly a starring role and I can't imagine anyone would think of Scott Caan when they think of Ocean's Eleven. I can't even say that people might know him from Ready to Rumble because David Arquette got every single piece of publicity from that piece of shit.

The other guy appears to have been a complete nobody before Hawaii Five-O.

Unless you live in a dry country/state or are a recovered alcoholic, most people have the occasional drink. When someone says, "I don't drink, anything, ever", it's out of the norm. For alcoholics, it's tantamount to treason. For everyone else, it's like saying, "I morally choose not to eat any Japanese food".\

There's a little but of a difference between Japanese food and alcohol. Japanese food isn't a substance with addictive qualities linked to liver and heart problems that causes people to do stupid things like sing karaoke.

The loot box system single handedly killed my interest in Mass Effect 3 and Andromeda's multiplayer modes. Literally everything was locked behind those damn boxes. Consumable items, characters, guns and mods, so you're entirely at the mercy of RNG in terms of being able to play the characters you want to play, use the guns you want to use, and play the style you're most comfortable with.

I think I played each for about two weeks in total before I just gave up because the boxes take so long to acquire with in-game points and kept giving me trash items, thus it was too hard to take on higher difficulties to acquire boxes faster since my gear and character selection was so limited and I was forced to play styles I didn't care for, so I wasn't having fun.

No. There's still no script extender for SSE yet so the mods that rely on anything more than minor scripting are either not available or available in dumbed down versions with less features.

There's also still no MCM yet due to the lack of a script extender, so the mods that are there have to use that annoying old system where options and such are accessed through a power which opens a terrible-to-navigate menu.

The Division for sure. I don't buy games at launch and haven't for a long time, but Division looked interesting and two of my friends both had it at launch and said it was pretty fun. So I bought it that day so we could all co-op together. We did have fun for the 15 hours or so it took to complete the main storyline and track down the collectibles, then none of us have played it since. There was just nothing to do in it aside from fuck around in the Dark Zone, and that got old really quick.

Aside from that I really don't know. As I said I typically don't buy games at launch anymore and the few that I have I still enjoyed and don't "regret" (like Breath of the Wild, Civilization VI and Mass Effect Andromeda). Probably have to go all the way back to Final Fantasy XIII for the last game I regretted buying.

What's the difference between an online pass and a season pass? Thought they were the same.

Season Passes give you access to the game's DLC. Online Passes gave you access to the game's online content. Usually they were bundled with the game new, but if you bought a used game and the Online Pass was used you'd have to pay $10 or something to access any online features like multiplayer or co-op.
