  1. I think its safe to say that particular combo would have never crossed my mind, which I like.
  2. Interesting, thats the exact same physical test as the US military.
  3. You know, Ive never killed her. Have to get around to that one of these days.
  4. Wow, you guys dont mess around with the Monty Haul. Only level 2 and already pimping +3 and +4 weapons? Or is that not very high in this gaming system?
  5. By advocating a UHC, thats exactly what youre saying. Get well soon Arites, can I buy you a new house while you recover?
  6. But what about when the Chinese horde makes a land bridge out of people? It is a fair question and the answer is probably the same as why you dont care about ridiculously high taxes; because Im used to it and its been there my entire life. Theres certainly money to be saved all over the place. We could cut down on defence, stop propping up Israel (thats like 6 billion / year right there!), etc... I really dont care where it comes from as long as it isnt from my pocket.
  7. While I agree that looks are of paramount importance for initial attraction, in the long run personality is a must have. After all, looks fade. Eh, who am I kidding, Id have married for money given the opportunity.
  8. Absolutely: http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/qq340/enochvg/jerrah.jpg[/img Really, any football fan who doesn't hate Jerry Jones just hasn't been paying attention. I think hes great for the league. At least they got the attendance record. Heh, you got it in the bag with the Colts offence yet to play. Bastage. 0-2 for the season so far, ouch.
  9. And with all respect to you, so what? Explain to me why that should affect my bank account? Where does this sense of entitlement come from in this country? "I dont want a big bill, someone else pay it". Well, I dont want a mortgage, someone else pay it. I dont want to drive a Hyundai, someone else buy me a Porche. College tuition! To hell with that, YOU pay to educate my kid. *deep breath* [/rant] EDIT: I feel I should point out that that rant wasnt aimed at you Tep, just "in general".
  10. This is how I play too. I am in a guild but thats only for what they can offer me and vice versa. I think the "lamers and griefers" thing is totally exaggerated. Ive literally been in thousands of pugs (Pick Up Groups) and rarely if ever run into those kinds of people. Of course, I also only play on a PvE server so Im sure a lot of that is mitigated.
  11. I know, I was just being a bit silly. The point that gets my goat is everyone pissing and moaning that healthcare isnt free. Every single example starts with "they knew something was wrong but didnt want a bill". Not one person went to the doctor! What? So what were looking at isnt a deficiency in medical care, its a deficiency in common sense.
  12. 40%? EDIT: Oh, I see what you are referrring to: Did you know that skydivers have a 100% higher risk of dying from rapid deceleration then non-skydivers?
  13. Right, because everything is free in "civilized" countries. Ill bet you 5 krones more people die every year from malnutrition and the effects of homelessness but they can just go piss on an electric fence, UHC is where its at baby!
  14. Lulz. Nothing like fabricating numbers to support a position. Lifes a biatch. Heres some more random accidental death that has nothing to do with nothing.
  15. I fire my minigun wildly into the crowd of peasants.
  16. @Enoch: Can I get you another glass of Haterade? I think it would be cool if they can pull off the attendace record for an NFL game. They're up against a pretty tough record of 103K set in Azteca Stadium in Mexico in 2005.
  17. Its the latter, that was not a request for a sperm donation.
  18. ^Nothing yet, it was just released yesterday.
  19. Because a game that lets you beat up BOTH is just super awesome. The big thing is, it's fun! Getting that subjective thing out of the way, it's fun managing the relationships with the natives, whether its in an exploitative (i.e. Spanish haha) way, or getting them to help you and help your settlements grow. Playing the game of cat and mouse, and getting all the advantages the natives had against you, while fighting the national army after declaring independence is also fun. Scoring big and finding that mountain range with lots of silver, only to have to decide between the 7% increase in tax or having a "Silver Party" is one of those frustrating "**** you" moments, but in a good way. What I meant was, post 3 and 4 indicatate that the unpleasant subject matter drives them away from that expansion. Why is that any more unpleasant that anything else? Was just curious.
  20. Im curious, whats the difference between beating up on computer generated Europeans and beating up on computer generated Native Americans that has you guys so squeamish?
  21. Well as you know, boss buffs are unyoinkable (Spellsteal) and they are also immune to Counterspell.
  22. Yeah, you should read their replies to posters on the DA boards. Its all about how smarmy they can be first, actual useful answers a distant second.
  23. Ive really enjoyed the first two episodes but I missed it last night, thank god for DVR's. That woman who plays the cheerleader coach (also in Two and a half Man and 40 Year Old Virgin) just slays me every time with her delivery.
  24. I see, that makes perfect sense, thanks Tep. Im still not willing to pay it.
  25. Yeah, I see where youre going but....at the end of the day, regardless of who makes what, the bottom line is the total bring home monies of our combined salaries is reduced by 26%, no? For example, I make 100K / year and she makes 100K / year, for a combined total of 200K. Right. Now apply an additional 13% tax to each. That doesnt equal a total reduction of 26%? Im not purposely being a knucklehead here, Im genuinely confused.
