If you refer to the Muslim man in the bomb vest as a terrorist its fine, if you refer to all muslim men as terrorists its a slur.
Refering to Israeli generals and politicians as Zionists is fine, If you refer to all Jewish people as Zionists…
Also Urdli in the Secrets Of Power trilogy was very much an Australian mage.
Because given what I know about how Native Americans were treated his thoughts were “Well, dont want to rape that…”
I generally go with “so I guess I’ll just go fuck myself” or “then she woke up talking bout pressing charges so I pulled my dick out her ass and left”
Its also necessary. Americans made this shitstorm of a litigious society themselves.
They paid for their insurance, why wouldnt they use it and protect themselves?
This makes perfect sense. The city will have insurance for accidents. They bill him, he sues, the city refers it to their insurer and the insurance pays the suit and costs.
It only sounds ridiculous on the surface.
Generally yes, but sometimes…
The Martian was a great book and a GREAT movie. Ridley Scott made visuals better than my imagination.
NFS Underground 2. I will pay full price on preorder to EA.
Thats 3 promises broken at once.
I like the styling too, its got a wicked 80s cyberpunk/Delorian/Tron vibe. I dislike… everything else. I get why a lot of people wouldnt like it, its a love it or hate it deal.
But now that Musk is such a polarising figure and the truck is such a polarising design I think a lot of people cant or wont separate the two.
I write parody lyrics all the time, they are childish and incredibly vulgar.
Like the time I off the top of my head changed the lyrics to “I want to break free” to “I want to fuck Steve” and serenaded my buddy Steven. I made it through most of the song with it being pretty close.
I said “I need to write that down” and Steve was like “Nah, spontaneously that shit was funny. Writing it down would just make it weird” I was inclined to agree.
Because Nintendo games on Nintendo handhelds almost never go wrong and you know what parents love? Their kids shit always just working. You dont have to check the system specs, you buy the game at the store and it WORKS. You wrap the game under a tree at Xmas, you can tell grandma “Nintendo Switch” and while she might pick something shit, its going to work.
Lemmings love to act like they are enlightened for figuring out the Steam deck is better… its not for you. Its for 5 to 10 year olds.
IMO the guy kind of has a point but mostly not.
Take website builders like Squarespace and stuff like that, you can be super good at using the tools to generate an excellent looking page and do it in a fraction of the time it might take someone else. Sure its a skill, one you probably spent time and effort developing, but it doesnt make you a web developer and if someone uses the tools to exactly copy your work pretty much exactly, yeah that sucks but your just using someone elses tools.
Or building a really cool and “unique” car using off the shelf aftermarket parts. Theres literally nothing stopping someone else just doing the same thing using your car as a template.
I get the “why” he is upset, but… I dont care.
This is why I started wearing hats everywhere. I have to find my hat which triggers the “Have I got everything?” thought process. If I go outside without my hat it definitely triggers the “Double check EVERYTHING because you clearly arent switched on”
I put wheels on my car which are a cheap copy of a very popular wheel because they were $500 not $2000 and I dont race. Every car meet someone has to comment that Im running “fakes” and try to give me a hard time about it. Yeah, Ive got a mortgage and a kid. Fuck off with your Supreme snapback ass hypebeast bullshit. I’m building the car I can afford.
People are toxic, even communities who preach peace and love as their doctrine have people who will whip out the moral-cock ruler and start shit over who is more peaceful and loving.
