  1. Ah, were dealing in "concepts". Now that's something I can get on board with. In my perfect conceptual country there's no: hunger, poverty, or crime and everyone accepts everyone elses racial, sexual and gender differences. Free medical, dental, vision and psychological services for all. Just imagine all our physical and mental needs are catered to, probably by robots, while humans spend their time thinking of stuff.
  2. I don't actually have a preference for a wall, I was just making a binary choice between "wall vs bottomless hole of societal problem fixing". I did almost blow a snot bubble snorting to the fact that, somehow, someway, it has already been determined that Trump’s Wall Threatens Thousands of Plant and Animal Species on the U.S.–Mexico Border. Wont someone think of the "SEVEN THOUSAND SPECIES" that may possibly be affected.
  3. /not sure if serious... Iyo, the lifetime costs to dealing with Mexico's "societal problems", the very same problems that Mexico itself cant fix, would be less than the one time cost of a wall?
  4. I never addressed immigration reform, Im for full unrestricted immigration. I was specifically addressing Hurlshot's statement of; "I mean, personally I'd rather see us effectively treating people that are clearly societal problems, whether it is mental illness, substance abuse, etc. But I suppose that is a silly use of resources." For me, I don't see any value in (or even how to accomplish) dealing with other countries societal problems. Not our job.
  5. Id rather not squander resources treating other countries societal problems. Give a choice between that and a wall, I choose the wall. Not that that will work either without drone swarms.
  6. What do you do for a living, Shady?
  7. Aaron Hernandez murder conviction thrown out by judge.
  8. *GASP* Just joking. They are a personal fav of mine, but they are based on D&D 2nd Edition (another personal fav), so you may not like some of the dastardly mechanics such as THAC0. The series has been repolished and rereleased by Beamdog and I think they are only $20 each if you want to try them out. Imo, BG II is better than BG.
  9. My post was a joke about ripping off part of the plot of BGII. They are talking about the character Imoen.
  10. Air Force's X-37B Space Plane Lands in Florida After Record-Breaking Secret Mission.
  11. What if one of the companions gets kidnapped and players must go rescue them. Then while on their journey, another party member is unmasked to be a traitor and surprise attacks the party! Upon their death it is revealed that an evil cipher placed them under a permanent Whisper of Treason spell, but now you have an extra party slot for the soon-to-be-rescued member.
  12. ^Is there any VO and if so, was it done by Ryan Reynolds?
  13. I recall you mentioning that you prefer a more athletic WW. Being a product of my times, I guess I like my WW to look like Linda Carter. I'm not familiar enough with the protagonist, , to have an opinion for or against but the wiki page description of his abilities seems formidable!
  14. Tired of buying bait, I purchased a cast net (which works like a champ for catching minnows) and then a few weeks ago I started a "worm farm". My wife was planting some flowers and every time she would turn over some dirt; earthworms galore! So I grabbed a bucket, threw some dirt in, and walk behind her scooping them up. Also when it rains enough they bubble to the surface which makes easy pickings. Tossed in some old watermelon about a week ago to get some good biodegradation going. Other than that I have no idea if this worked at all or how quickly earthworms reproduce but today is the grand reveal of my experiment. In my mind, I'm going to dig my hand down to the bottom of the bucket and pull up a teeming mass worms.
  15. No other character anywhere in PoE / WM wears any kind of eyewear, right? Maybe its the glasses that are throwing an "out of place" vibe?
  16. I think I remember how to count up to four in German. And no, youre not the only one. I was going to suggest a Thunderdome type combat and the winner gets the oldtymey avatars.
  17. I took German in HS. Had to perform some heroic cheating to pass that final.
  18. Its the game engine the classics of yore were built upon (BG series, IWD series, PT).
  19. I initially didnt like the choice of actress for WW because I felt she isnt "Amazonian" enough, but the movie has definately grown on me from watching the trailers. That part where she creates a shock wave by smacking her bracelets together makes me giddy.
  20. *sigh* It still has to survive the Senate. Everyone can unpucker for a minute.
  21. Well if were being honest, theres no way players will even see the glasses, or pixie haircut, or slightly shorter skirt, or whatever...because the perspective wont allow it and isn't that detailed. You will be able to notice on the character portrait but that's only a bust. So, much ado about nothing.
  22. It would be hilarious if there was a toggle just like for Big Head Mode. Click a box and BOOM...everyone has glasses and a huge weapon.
  23. Check out these killer facts about the ultraviolent John Wick.
  24. I swear I had the same reading error as Barti. Glad youre ok. We call that a "hitch and ball" around here.
