I've still never had a worse fast food experience then the two trips I've taken to White Castle. It's the dirt worst.

Also cheese on a sloppy joe is great, especially if it's a shredded cheese that melts easily so it melts into the meat.

If the remove all the Miranda ass shots they'd remove like 50% of her cut-scenes.

The regulations themselves isn't the problems. It's that they're only coming after average people starting taking advantage of these same practices as the investor class. And you're lying to yourself if you don't think they will find a way to pass regulations only on retail investors and leave the investor class alone to continue with their usual practices.

This. The problem is the hypocrisy. Market manipulation is a daily occurrence on Wall Street, but it was all rich white people who are on a first name basis with politicians like Warren so no one cared. Now these people from Reddit get involved and suddenly it's a problem that needs to be rectified immediately, and most likely in a way that will only harm small traders and allow investment banks and hedge funds to keep doing what they're doing.

I don't remember the details specifically but I do know the script underwent multiple rewrites and revisions which ultimately led to Rachel Weisz and Stephen Sommers (the writer and director of the first two movies) leaving (although Sommers was still credited as a producer, I don't know how much input he had, if any, after he pulled out of directing).

I haven't used a PS5 controller yet, but all the other PS controller are complete garbage. They're too small (and I don't even have large hands), the joystick placement is beyond stupid, and mechanically they suck (I had to replace several PS2 and PS4 controllers over the years meanwhile my 360 never needed a controller replaced once, the console was a piece of shit but the controller was solid).

Like, I don't have an Xbox One, but I have an Xbox One controller for my PC, because there was no way I was voluntarily using a PS4 controller when I didn't have too.

I started OOT randomizer for the first time a few weeks ago and I've been enjoying it. But I've taken a break from it this week. Have to return to finish it up soon. I was hoping I wouldn't have to do all the dungeons, but I need the Song of Time to get the last two Medallions. And funnily enough its location is in the exact same place it is in normal OOT, which requires me getting all the Spiritual Stones. Otherwise, I have everything I need to actually finish the game.
Out of curiosity what do you think you need SoT for? Because there's actually very few places where SoT is hard required, even glitchless. There is the one chest at the end of the whirlpool river in Water Temple, and if that has your Water BK then yeah you need SoT, but I'm pretty sure every other dungeon can be completed without it.

Easily FFX.

FFX contains several of the worst mini-games in the entire history of video gaming (most notably dodging lightning and Chocobo racing) and all of it is present in the quest for the Celestial Weapons. Hell even if you were to split up the weapons individually I'd still vote for Lulu's since that's the lightning one.

Anyone who uses self-checkouts is essentially providing these companies with free labour. If you don't have an issue with that, good for you. I do. Walmart is not my friend, I'm not running a register for them for free.

You say this like this is a uniquely American concept. It's not. It originated in England and most countries today have some sort of right against self-incrimination. Even China technically has one. I'm sure whatever country you're from has one too.

We fought the Philippines?
Yes. During the Spanish-American War the Filipinos were fighting a war of independence against the Spanish and cooperated with the US in actions against Spain. At the conclusion of the war the Filipinos signed a declaration of independence but neither Spain or the US recognized it and The Philippines was instead transferred from Spanish control to American control with the US occupying Manila, so the Filipinos then continued fighting against the US starting the Philippine-American War. Eventually the US won and The Philippines became a US territory until it was finally granted independence shortly after WW2.

It's an almost completely forgotten part of US history. I'd bet the vast majority of Americans have no idea the war ever happened (despite it being an American victory) and have no idea The Philippines was once an American territory similar to Puerto Rico for over 45 years.

Rainbow ride is just boring. It feels like they wanted to make a 3D version of auto-scrollers, but theres too much time spent just sitting on the magic carpet doing nothing and you need to repeat that any time you mess up because 90% of missteps in that stage result in auto-death.
The only carpet you have to ride is the one that takes you up to the Big House roof. The first one can easily be skipped by simply long jumping to the pole behind the start and the one to the ship only has to be ridden halfway until you can start jumping your way there (and if you're really good it can be skipped entirely too by jumping up to the yellow ramp above the spinning platforms and using the poles).

Just put in your two weeks notice, specify what your last day is (so if you went in tomorrow and put in your two weeks, specify that Oct 2 is your last day) and then work your scheduled shifts up until that date. If they already scheduled you past that and don't bother to replace you, that's their problem. They can't expect three or four weeks notice just because that's how far in advance they schedule.

Electoral college, otherwise New York and California would just decide every president and the election process would be pointless.

Even the shittiest flyover state is supposed to have a voice.
In the 2016 election California had 14,181,595 votes and New York had 7,721,453 votes. A combined 21,903,048 total votes. There were 136,669,276 total votes cast in that election, so California and New York only accounted for 16% of the total vote. So how would California and New York suddenly decide every election with a popular vote system?
