I do not see any other unapproved posts in this forum.

It read like a lawyer worked it over with a fine toothed comb to me.

Gfted1 complained that Elizabeth Warren sticking to her claims of being fired during pregnancy was going to prevent her chances at winning and that, combined with Sanders recent health problems would prevent the democrats winning and enacting the "socialist" policies that Gfted1 has become so enamored with availing himself to. Hurlshot complained that he thought it was tasteless to link real problems (Warren's claims, Sanders' health) within the context of what he feels is Gfted1's hyperbolic and facetious trolling of any candidate within the democratic party by pretending its some sort of socialist plan that will give him "free stuff". Gfted countered that he wasn't being facetious and wanted free stuff and that he didn't understand how Sander's heart factored into it. Hurlshot illustrated his feeling regarding the seriousness of Warren's claims by illustrating his own families experience with an attempt by school administrators to end the employment of a pregnant teacher (his wife), the implication to reinforce why he feels that these serious issues shouldn't be brushed aside by users being flippant about getting "free stuff". [At least as I read it, relevant parties may agree/disagree with my interpretation]

This is me. I typically will create a character I think will be interesting in the setting and go with it. Its part of why I have a restarting issue with character creation on new games as I will sometimes come to the realization that the character is at odds with the systems, and so rethink the character.

Obligatory On-Topic: Personally I think timed exclusives are silly because I have no issue with waiting out the timing (this is excluding any look at whether supporting a game at all can be seen as support for a 'bad' practice or support for a 'good' game).

Please review the forum guidelines. We ask that the users of this board treat one another with respect, even when opinions differ. Calling another user stupid does not meet this criteria.

To be fair, the FBI was looking at Jewel before the news ran with it due to an insider tip they got from the FBI, but it's a good example of what can happen wrong in both FBI investigations and in news reporting.

If you were to pistol-whip someone to death, is it counted as a handgun death or a blunt object death or both...?

Old thread: Last few posts:

Allegedly the Ukraine was being recruited because the alleged "dirt" allegedly involves a Ukrainian company that Biden's son is on the board allegedly being protected by Biden when he called for the resignation of an allegedly corrupt prosecutor who was allegedly looking into alleged corruption allegedly involving the company.

The producer (Sam Esmail of MR. ROBOT) for the Universal/Peackock BSG series says its a new story set in Ronald D. Moore's BSG universe, and reports are that Moore has given the show his blessing. I hated the pilot movie for Moore's BSG and never watched another minute of it, but good news for its fans, I guess.

The maze puzzle hidden within an early video game I always liked Entombed.

Sid Haig Probably best remember now for his recent films with Rob Zombie (House of 1000 Corpses, Devil's Rejects) but known for his many years of television and film work. Low budget films like Spider Baby - Big budget films like Swashbuckler or tv shows (genre and non-genre) like Jason of Star Command and many other shows (Man from U.N.C.L.E., Batman,Mission Impossible, Gunsmoke, Six Million Dollar Man, etc) and movies (including a small part in Diamonds are Forever, Kill Bill, Bone Tomahawk, Swashbuckler, Foxy Brown, THX 1138, etc) I had the pleasure to meet Mr. Haig several years ago and besides being a fun storyteller, he was generous with his time with his fans. RIP

Pong, First video game I ever played. Asteroids and Warlords on the Atari 2600. One of my uncles had a 2600 and we played four player Warlords a lot when we visited. Adventure on the Atari 2600 - beat it and found the "secret" by myself. Quite chuffed over that at the time. There was a proliferation of local arcade in shopping centers that had video games; remember playing Crazy Climber and some of the off-brand Pac-Man titles that I think were technically bootleg mods and Mr. Do's Castle. Spy vs Spy on the Commodore 64, playing against my brothers with the winner being able to keep playing and losers switching. Phantasie as the first RPG I tried playing that I had some success on (had tried Ultima but wasn't good at it). Loved that I could have monsters in my party! I remember the first time I solved a particular puzzle in Time of Lore that had vexed me regarding needing a weapon to advance and the relief I'd felt after hours of trying to solve the puzzle. I remember playing Bruce Lee and my brother vowing to play the Green Yama to help me beat the game and then always double crossing me (until I got good enough to deal with it and still beat the game). I remember my mom and dad coming into an arcade (rare!) to watch my brothers and I try to beat Dragon's Lair (and later Space Ace) on the large TV screens they had set up so other people could watch the game as it was being played (crowds gathered around it just to watch). I remember when the Street Fighter II Championship Edition came out having a series of tied matches with an opponent using M. Bison where I finally lost because I butterfingerd the attack that would have tied us the last time (and got me the win). I broke the reset button on my SNES because when SFII came out I kept messing up the code to unlock the bosses and kept reseting until I got it right. Playing Golden Axe in a small pub in the UK. Had a Shining Force II game where I'd gotten every character to level 99(!) by retreating in the last battle repeatedly to build up each team member. Also participated in building a FAQ for rec.arts.games for SF II, my first experience with trying to connect to game fans online. Being shocked at how poor the translation for Breath of Fire II was (to the point that I'm still not exactly sure what happened in it at the end). Console war fights on rec.arts.games and the fights with Working Designs/Victor Ireland over their translations (particularly their use of humour and pop-culture references that were very different from the actual Japanese games). Fallout, BG and IWD brining me to the old Interplay threaded forums before Black Isle started their message board...

This is the Political thread, not an episode of Scooby Doo. Let's forego attempts to prove the Ghost of Elias Kingston is really Stuart Weatherby. Or for that matter psychoanalysing other posters.

Sounds like a cult.

Seems legit.

I meant "aliens" not "UFOs"

They confirm they are real videos from the navy showing unknown aerial phenomenon, as I understand it, rather than confirm the objects in the video are ufos.
