Blarghagh

Is it just me or do the leads seem like some kind of haughty, pre-packaged action figure people? Is there a plot point about perfect cloned people in it or something? Anyway, saw two weirder titles. About Time, a time travel movie in which the time travel was superfluous and was mostly a painfully saccherine love story. And Hello, My Name Is Doris, a quirky but fun type indie movie about age that would have been meh but was elevated by Sally Field's wonderfully all-in performance.

That's what confused me since I had all the Quest achievements for MoP (bought Draenor and never really started playing that expansion), so I was wondering what I missed... Guess I stopped playing just before that final raid and those scenarios. Of course now there is the same problem they introduced Raid Finder for anyway: people missing out on content due to not being able to raid (or playing at the time), guess next up is a single player version of each and every raid . I mean not even a single mention to people that join or return after the fact is kinda...lame? Suddenly everything's changed and apparently nobody still talks about it. For something that was apparently a big deal that's kinda weird. Seriously some quest connecting things (just dialogues filling people in would be good enough) would have been nice. Then again WoW has always been pretty half-assed in this respect, compared to say, EverQuest 2 (where NPCS were still talking about the destruction (and rebuilding) of Freeport so even people that weren't around at the time, like me, still got the gist of what happened). Also given the fond memories most raiders have of M'uru I don't see the Naaru suddenly being the bad guys ending well, though players did manage to kill A'dal on my realm (Wildhammer-EU) during the Scourge Invasion, which was kind of hilarious ;-) Also, don't they dare devalue the awesomeness of my "Hand of A'dal" title! Oh yeah, and aside from WoW I'm still mostly playing Forza Horizon 3. Next major patch (expansion) to Warframe should be arriving this week too, looking forward to that since it'll be a lore patch! EDIT: typos, so many typos! Well, it is "heart" of a specific Naaru. Not the Naaru in general. And this heart was supposed to only be accessible to another Naaru, but that got killed and we somehow still got it to talk to us. Things seem fishy. That coupled with the fact that before Legion, Anduin was said (by Velen, the Prophet) to be what they're now saying Illidan is. And right before we accessed it, Velen just happened to have been traumatised into giving up the light, so the only one who could disagree now won't. Seems fishy to me, especially combined with some of the whispers of a current old-God related raid boss. And yeah, persistent world isn't WoW's forte even when they're not putting most of the significant lore in books rather than the game. I mean, when you're a new player you still fight Deathwing, then go back in time to deal with Illidan and the Lich King, then fight Deathwing again, then fight Garrosh and going back in time to fight his dad while the current time Legion invades old-time Draenor to get into current time Azeroth. I recently rolled a Panda monk to try it out because I skipped Pandaland and was surprised to find Garrosh talking to me while Vol'Jin sat on the throne next to him. I heard the same thing happens with the late Varian talking to alliance Pandas while Anduin sits on the throne surrounded by Demon Hunters.

People recommended Mr Robot to me, so I watched the first 3 or 4 episodes. This is just Fight Club with hackers, isn't it? If Christian Slater isn't his Tyler Durden I'll eat my hat.* *Won't actually eat my hat. EDIT: Has anyone seen my phone? Because I ****ing called it!

I just saw someone post a bunch of tweets from when Trump thought Romney won the Popular Vote in 2012. I'm looking forward to him abiding by his principles. He's not going to, but I'm looking forward to that too. The entertainment never stops.

The interesting thing with Fascism, is it is basically socialism without the obsession with equality. You're kidding, right? I dunno, Hitler's NSDAP party directly translated was the National Socialist German Labour Party. It pretty much says it on the tin.

If it makes you feel any better, Auchindoun and Karabor are pretty gorgeous. Anyway, Hellscream was kinda the end boss of Pandaria. It was a pretty big deal. As for Troll Boss, the only reason people let his killed-by-random-demon death slide is because he's got connections in the afterlife and it's obvious this is not the end for him. I'm more bothered by the Legion content that tells me I need to atone for killing Illidan who is apparently a saviour. You know, despite the fact that Illidan created the Fel Orcs, enslaved the Broken and took complete control over all the water in Outland and he seriously needed to be put down no matter how good the intentions of his master plan are. This storyline better end with the revelation that the Naaru are lying to us.

Either you know something we don't, or you're confusing the Trump women. Yeah, 'twas a mixup. Shows one shouldn't try to write jokes after an all-nighter. A mixup but we all know it's true. He implied as much himself.

That's a little harsch on Kyros, isn't it?

What, like Poutine and Canadian Bacon and bagged Milk and ending every sentence with "eh" and mounties and maple syrup and legal weed and free healthcare and surprising general racism against asians? As opposed to 'Murica, beer and McDonalds and guns in Walmart? Maybe it's because I'm not on that continent but I can think of more varied examples of Canadian culture than America. Even some of her campaign slogans were off-putting. "I'm with her" and "It's her turn" aren't inspiring, and they certainly don't dissuade the idea that she was just in this race to feed her own hubris. For me, at this point looking forward, I care about: 1) Do not just let Clinton slide on all her crimes. I actually don't care so much about her being punished or jailed, but I would like to see people remain interested in what she did and why, simple for educational purposes moving forward. If we fail to understand the why's and how's, this can happen again with other candidates. 2) Time to look into Trump's entire staff and policies...whenever they may develop. I know much of his staff is pretty terrible. Definitely a presidency to scrutinize heavily, because it's highly likely we want this candidate gone by 2020. 3) Bernie 2020 can happen? Yes? No? If it can't, there's other good candidates, but I feel he would be one that the DNC would not DARE to shut down again, whereas Gabbard may not hold that same impact. 4) Maine's vote for primary party votes that allows voters to select a backup vote if their primary candidate stands no chance. I can't find any news on it amidst all the news about Trump winning, but I feel this is actually pretty significant if it passed. One state can pave the way for many, and if come next election Maine went to a Stein candidate because they could afford to vote Green party with no fear, that'd slowly but surely take hold in politics, I feel, even if the Democratic and Republican parties stood against it. A candidate we want gone by 2020? Wasn't he recently involved in a civic suit because he allegedly raped a 13 year old kid? You really think he's going to last a year without being impeached? Which one was this? Honestly towards the end there were so many charges and a lot of them were proven fake or manufactured so I just started tuning it out. If it's in any way related to the one where the girl states her age and he says "she's gonna be my wife someday" then yeah, that's not happening. Just media hysteria to defame him. If there's another I missed, we'll see. Even if we impeach him though, Pence isn't exactly fantastic and he's still someone we'd want gone by 2020. EDIT: Wait no, impeachment means Pence gone too, no? But what happens then? I don't know which one, that's why I phrased it as a question. False rumor or not, my point is it's only a matter of time before they find one on Donald "grab her by the ****" Trump that sticks. Bill Clinton got impeached over a blowjob, I expect Donald Trump's sexually assaulted enough women to get the same thing to happen.

No, I meant Mexico. Canadians are as useless as Americans and can tolerate them, but the hardworking Mexican people don't want them lazy Americans in their country. EDIT: In all seriousness though, result wasn't that surprising. Trump campaigned with promise of a better future with his "make America great again" lies, Hillary campaigned with "not Trump" - that didn't work for those going against Obama when their opponents campaigned on "not Obama" and he was campaigning with "we can change America". You're never going to inspire people with fear. Democrats screwed themselves by picking someone with no platform, shoulda gone with Bernie. Although I'm guessing those democratic morons are blaming Bernie supporters now.

This just in - Mexico to build wall to keep sudden stream of American immigrants out.

Economic Left/Right: -7.25 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.77 Yeah, Libertarian Left. Big surprise there. I can't stand conservatives but I can't stand the social justice brigade either.

LOL. All I can say is, don't blame me, I campaigned for Sweet Meteor O' Death 2016. I don't know whether Trump or Hillary would have been worse, I'm just surprised and amused the US picked the meme president for the Kim Kardashian generation. How many people have come forward going "I voted as a joke, I didn't think it'd actually happen!" like with Brexit? Any media articles about how Hillary wasn't elected because of sexism? Also, lol @ people attributing this Obamacare. Republicans do everything they can to mangle Obamacare before it even gets off the ground and then platform about how mangled Obamacare is. Shovel **** into Republicans mouths and they chew dutifully. Whenever I think nobody's as dumb as US democrats (because only US democrats are dumb enough to think Hillary is a liberal), the republicans come in and prove me wrong. Either way, I don't envy the US having to pick between dying in a natural forest fire or a napalm bombing. But you keep living with this system, so it's hard for me to be sympathetic either.

That thread does not list my candidate of choice, Sweet Meteor of Death 2016. I call shenanigans.

New thread for the US Presidential election since the old one was already far past its due date and expected to explode in size. Anyway, don't forget to write in your votes for Sweet Meteor of Death 2016. I support his platform. https://twitter.com/smod2016

I expect this thread to explode today so I'm closing it in favour of a new one. It'll come up in a minute or so.

Oh really? I must have not been paying attention.

Pretty sure they said it wasn't free. It was a sold "class pack" or something, wasn't it?

Just got caught up on this and also started Mr. Robot. Needless to say my mind was reeling a bit after that. I hope they branch into different themes. The western thing is growing old and the movie made it clear there were at least two other themed sections.

True. I've done the whole how ****ing dare you you're messing with someone's life thing before, in my experience it's really just best to seethe internally and let it lie. Going into it usually just drags it out.

Well he did say he was easily bothered by stupid things. Longknife, take what you said about your psychologist here to him. Tell him that despite his apparent faith in you, you DON'T feel (like you're getting) better and that you need them to find a different approach. Psychiatrist's usually don't kick you out unless you let them. I've had similar experiences, generally they will try to find another way to get to it. I was told the same thing once, that I have the knowledge and skills required to beat this thing. But I was also so deep into it that even with that, I couldn't. Now, I'm no psychiatrist but I have significant experience in being in therapy. Have you and your psychologist tried cognitive therapy? Because it sounds to me like you keep running into the same thought patterns to hold you back. Negative thought-patterns can stick with you for a long time even if you discredit them logically, because they pop up automatically and make you feel like **** first before you can use your counter-arguments and then arguing with your own brain is also a hugely energy and willpower consuming task. Cognitive therapy is based on slowly making the counter-arguments faster and more powerful, more automatic, take less effort.

You mean Scissors, Oner?
