I tried to appeal to your yanks' sense of decency, but alas, i failed. yank's sense of decency? What the hell are you talking about?

If you can't stop it - tax it. I wonder how much license for murder should cost? Depends on who you are going to murder, rates are higher for political figures and children

Yeah but Sweden is like chocolate: sweet, and you are talking about hardcore american conflicts. We actually kill people over here.

Controlled substances in the hand of pharmacies aren't quite controlled. MDMA was sold by pharmacies; by prescription only, until someone called it ecstasy and marketed it as a party drug. Having drugs in pharmacies just means that the government becomes the dealer not that the problem is over.

****ing Japs!

Woke up; time to wait for the people that are going to fix the TV and get drunk.

Careful there, you are speaking heresy.

That's bound to get too metaphysical. Still, not likely since the whole crux is too unite the galaxy against the Reaper in a DA kind of way.

Just remembered one, "Second Sight"

Last day of school!

But then we would have no games to buy and then complaint about how they could had been better

If there's one single game that's not underrated, then it's Earthbound. Half the internet wouldn't shut up about it a year ago when the Mother 3 translation was released. Ugh Yeah but it's kind of just confined to the Internet, I have never seen anyone in RL or a magazine go about Earthbound. Actually scratch that, Earthbound was on Game Informer as one of the RPG cult gems or something like that. Kind of reminds me: Shadow Hearts anyone? Legend of the Dragoons? feeling that JRPG nostalgia yet?

Secret of Mana 3 (Seiken Densetsu 3) literally the best in the series and no american release. Thanks to God for the Internet, translation groups and the emulators. Edit: Speaking of old Snes games, anyone remembers Earthbound?

That sounds interesting, maybe they will also add high class writing :snicker:

Is that an euphemism?

Please, an autistic kid can do a better ending for ME. I hear that they dream great TV series

Well. From what we read around here, he was a quite "normal" guy until he, after visiting Britain, became "increasingly radical and angry". Maybe he was known there for these tendencies, but I think very few, if any, in Sweden knew of the extent of his radicalization. Also, I very much doubt that he had training with explosives, from what I've read... I could have made a better bomb myself, from the descriptions of those. "After visiting Britain"

I'm not breaking out the good stuff for our second cold front.

@Krezack: It's not revenge, I have no ill will to these individuals. Rehabilitation doesn't work, most offenders often become repeat offenders; why you support a failing structure is beyond me? My beef is actually with the people who take the side of the criminals instead of the common public, I'm not for the complete mistreatment of prisoners but the main focus of the penal system should be to protect the society where normal people live. @Nepenthe: It doesn't matter that most people view prison as punishment, for the hardcore criminal it is something of a second home. Some spend most of their life on the inside, they are obviously not frightened or deterred by the prospect of prison.

I'd say my impressions were the opposite. I was never treated harshly (most of them were scared ****less of having a lawyer there), but never fairly or with any respect, apart from the respect you give to somebody who you suspect can tie you into legal loopholes for the rest of your natural life. Clearly your military culture is at an advantage over ours. Military as a prison is an institution, the big difference is that you probably won't be stabbed, raped, robbed, or likely to develop a drug addiction in the military. Plus my sting in the military is something I remember to be harsh but ultimately enjoyable; that said I wouldn't do it again. The comparison really isn't fair since both have very different objectives and populations. The whole point wasn't to equate the two, but to instead point out that people will generally view even a rather "soft" limitation of personal freedoms pretty ****ing opressive. It shouldn't matter what people think, prison should be punitive within the confines of the law. Otherwise the whole concept fails, specially since most hardcore criminals scorn general viewpoints.

Drank a whole lot of whiskey to bury the cold down. Now I think that i'm drunk and cold.

I don't see why they need the Reapers considering that all the tomfoolery and all the fan's criticism surrounds the Reaper's storyline. Just like DA could do without the GW ME can do better without the Reapers and just with a galaxy full of political tensions; not a plotline out of a flash gordon episode.
