The Weird, Random and Interesting Things That Fit Nowhere Else Thread

Why would anyone name their company 'Boring'? LMAO -
Hilarious considering the connection between the two. L0LZ

"Did anyone ever tell you you're an expert at "yes, but they're evil nazis TOO!"?" The point is a lot of people cry about how history in NA has been covered up and hidden to to make the European evil and monstrous even though everyone knows the horrible stuff they did. There is this myth that pre European invasion that Indiians were living on the land and with each other in peace and harmony. That simply isn't the case. For me, it dehumanizes people when you don't share the FULL picture of their history both good and bad.

I personally like Gneo Smith as a player but don't matter Eli should be the starter. WHAT A DISGRACE BY THE GIANTS. McAdoo should be fired now and before people say he should 'get to the end of the season'.. the same could have applied to Eli. Then yiu can discuss this like reasonable adults trying to make the best decision instead of some lame hail mary by a desperate coach trying to save his job. This is kind of like the NBA situation except Eli is way too PC for his own good.Plus, benching your 2 time SB MVP best starting QB for rest of season is way more asanine than maybe making the mistake of benching your star player for one quarter of an 82 game season... ;L0L

"Disrespecting one native peoples in a flippant manner has more to do with one just being disrespectful and flippant in general, and further about being callus to our nations history." Is it as disrespectful as ignoring the history of Indian tribes wiping out, conquering, and subsuming other tribes in the same disgusting flippant manner as the Europeans did to them?
-
McAdoo and the Giants prove yet again they are a scumbag pieces of ****. Why do I love Ny so much that I have to cheer for most of their teams by default when I was a kid? LMAO TOTAL GARBAGE.

If a team loses 8 games in arow, the coach can be deemed 'ineffective' as well. Also, if the coach had given an actual explaination to benching Gasol he might have gotten away with it. Or if the benching actually made the team better which it doesn't. Sucks for the coach but that's life. That said, I'm dissapointed that some people (not you) are trying to make this a racial issue because a (white) player complained about a (black) coach benching him then the coach promptly got fired. Race has nothing to do with it. Sometimes, when it comes down to star player vs coach, the coach sometimes lsoes. Normally the coach wins. But just ask the ex CLE coach who got fired after his team went to the Finals. L0L nobody even hinted at there being a 'racial' reason despite it being a (black) player supposedly getting a (white) coach fired. That said, I don't blame Gasol for the firing. Just a management that is shellshocked and made a panic move.

"I don't think he deserves to be there anyway. " Going by TIME's criteria he should be. Like him or not he is the person talked about the most and basically trumps (lol) all other 'news'. Just look at TIME's history.. not exactly a list of nice people.

Belgium, Hawaii to ban, regulate in-game loot boxes as gambling
Volourn replied to ktchong's topic in Computer and Console
The logic that you are anti ban means you are pro something is plain stupid. Again, I am anti ban of cigarettes and other drugs even though I think they are garbage. There are plenty of things I'm against that I don't think should be banned simply because I dislike them. Like idiots who like ES games. LMAO -
EVIL. Just more Nazism. And, as shown in the article, it can lead to bullying, shaming, and even robbery!

No. Not liking lootboxes doesn't make one pro power, slavery, or Nazism. But, believing the gov't should come in tell people what they can spend their money or what is 'bad' for them is acceptable. Unlike most, I don't believe the Nanny State should be our goal. I believe in personal responsibility and choice. btw, Being against such a ban doesn't make me 'pro lootbox'. I believe all drugs including steroids should be legal. That is despite the fact outside of one puff of a cieggeratte when I was kid I have never touched drugs 9well I guess outside of the 'drug' known as alcohol lol). I also think people who choose to go bungy jumping are stupid idiots taking a risk for a cheap thrill... but I also don't believe the gov't should ban it either. And, that's risking your life not a few $. LMAO Yet I guarantee you that most of the same people in this thread demanding the gov't ban 'gambling' and lootboxes would be OUTRAGED if the gov't banned bungyjumping. R00fles! -

Wut? Publisher offers me smething. I have the option to say yes or no. Oh, you talking on behalf of developers? Publishers pay dvelopers to do a job. Don't like the job you are paid to do work for another publisher. Same as customer. Don't like the offer don't buy it. CHOICE. -

"Your defenses of lootboxes and microtransactions are the most fervent and least logical in this thread. So... Orogun01 isn't wrong to point out that you're defending them, on account of you defending them." Except I';m not defending them. I'm attacking gov't interverence on people's choice. If you (or I) don't like lootboxes (or gambling) we have the damn choice not do it. I don't need or want the gov't babysitting me in this regard. \ Why do you believe in power, slavery, and Nazism? Why are you anti freedom? -

Comparing prizes in a cereal boxes to actual gambling is rather stretching it. People are gonna buy cereal to eat. the 'prize' is just something tossed in. You aren't PAYINg for the prizes. There is no risk involved. Youa re getting what you paid for. -
Can people define what they mean by 'poverty' here? Is it 3rd world living in filth drinking dirty water and barely having rags to wear or is it 1st world living in a 2 bedroom house with only one tv and one car type of poverty? LMAO When you say the guy works for 40 hours a week yet is 'poor' what do you mean 'poor'? I work for less than 40 hours in a job that pay a little more than minimum wage yet I have an apartment, computer, fancy tv, a billion movies, games, never in danger of starving, have a ridiculous amount of clothes and would be considered 'under the poverty line'. People's definition of poor really seems 'skewered' at times. LMAO So.. what do you mean 'poor'? To have a legit conversation about 'poorness' we need to set the definition and boundaries of what we actually mean by 'poor'.

"Except video games are targeted at children. The minds of children are not fully developed, and they lack self-control. Which is why EA and other video game companies are targeting children for exploitation and predatory business practices: children are easy targets. EA and video games company were stupid to think they could get away with targeting children with predatory business practices. FYI, while adults are allowed to gamble, children are banned from gambling in every country, every civilization, all over the world." EPIC FAIL. Children don't have money. The parents are the targets. The parents are the ones who are choosing to gamble their money. Not the children. So, stop making nonsense up. But, hey, keep defending Nazism and using the 'ol 'what bout the childs' silliness. Again, ON REPEAT, children do not have money so they cannot be targets of 'gambling'. The parents - who are adults - are. -
It happens in Kanada. A failed joke is a failed joke. Also, that 'fat' teacher in the comic doesn't look all that fat. L0L

NWN > ALL Until Beamdog makes it worse. Make an 'enhanced' eidition but won't bother to add feats, spells, skills, and classes from NWN2 or other fortmers that would actually make the game even more awsomesauce than it already is. -
Movies You've Seen (or would like to see) Recently

Except I have liked the DCU films from the very start... L0L In fact, the 'comedy' (ie. The Flash) was the worst part of this film. One of the best scenes in the film was when Batman and Wonder Woman were talkin' trtash to each other. I prefer the 'dark' serious tone. -
"stealing implies ownership" L0L So you believe in slavery? K. Then.

Look at this. people are still defending the theft of other people's money. Why at epeople pro Nazi? I bet you guys would feel the gov't would be justified to mass murder thes epeople if they refused to give up the money right? I mean, it is acceptable for the gov't to steal. EVIL.
