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.

I fire my minigun wildly into the crowd of peasants.

@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.

Its the latter, that was not a request for a sperm donation.

^Nothing yet, it was just released yesterday.

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.

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?

Well as you know, boss buffs are unyoinkable (Spellsteal) and they are also immune to Counterspell.

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.

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.

I see, that makes perfect sense, thanks Tep. Im still not willing to pay it.

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.

Huh? To fund UHC, models show it would take a 13% increase in taxes for every working person in the country. So, theoretically, my paycheck would decrease by 13% as would my wifes, for an overall 26% reduction in our total take home monies.

C'mon guys, isnt it obvious. LoF is Eddo36.

Hehe, while I dont understand why Im wrong Im willing to concede that I probably am. Math was never my strong suit. Anyone willing to splain to me how two individuals suffering a 13% decrease EACH does not equal 26% total?

See, this right here, this is exactly what I mean. This has nothing to do with point of view. This is just rationalising it to yourself to make it seem like they are somehow lesser people that don't deserve your support. Just makes you look like you're trying to convince yourself more than anyone else. Im not rationalizing anything. While I dont feel they are "lesser" people, they absolutely do not deserve my forced support at the expence of my family. Period. Go die in a ditch for all I care. With your line of thinking I should also be forced to feed all the homeless too right? Damn whatever negative effects it has on my family right? Give me a good reason why I should suffer an over one-quarter reduction to my families income for someone else.

I pay nothing. 100% of my medical and dental are paid by the company. Although I dont get vision insurance. I suppose someone else should pay for that. See, I dont even understand this mentality. Like we have to "stick it to the man" because he makes more then me? What? *sigh* Maybe some day you will be able to see a pov different from yours. So far, all models Ive seen predict a 13% increase in taxes for all workers to pay for this UHC. Not 13% per family, 13% per person. That equates to a 26% decrease (both my wife and I work) in my families disposable income. I can not absorb a 26% decrease without significant negative consequences to my way of life. Why? So Joe A-Hole can get a free ride? Screw that. It makes me want to stab him in the face myself so at least I can have the satisfaction of seeing my money at work.

I fall squarely into this category. Why the hell should my standard of living decrease because I have to support someone elses healthcare? I understand the European pov, you guys dont know the difference. You were born and raised in the support-me-from-the-cradle-to-the-grave mentality. Its your whole life. Its like asking a blind man what a sunset looks like, he doesnt know. Believe me, I too would have loved to roll off my mothers teat and right onto the governments. Spend the next 50-60 year potificating before strolling off to retirement. Im truly jealous, but thats not how it is here and its not my f-ing problem you (not you) dont have insurance.

^If youre referring to this: I think thats a typo as it directly contrdicts what Matthew Rorie said a few posts before it.

Regarding #1, I believe the timer is 5-8 seconds and I dont think its possible to pause. Like you said, whats the point of a timer if you can pause. but, not in dialog, it can be paused anywhere (question 2). Regarding #5, didnt one of the devs say its very possible to miss out on major characters (Sie for example) depending on the choices and path you take?

Journey to the Center of the Earth, the remake. Awful, just awful. And I like Brandon Frasier and the roles he does with action comedy. The acting was piss poor and the action sequences were so far out, I couldnt even switch off my brain.

I fire my minigun wildly into the foliage.

1 "work year" = 2080 hours 2080 hour per year x 1,200,000 dollars per hour = 2,496,000,000 dollars per year Yeah, I dont think so. EDIT: I see what you did there. 1 "work year" = 2080 hours 2080 hours per year x 120,000 per hour = 249,600,000 dollars per year I suppose thats possible, if you're Bill Gates.
