I've always thought that Pursuit Predation made humans the Jason Voorhees of the animal world.

Eh...I let the deathclaw kill the raiders then used the minigun to explode cars while the deathclaw passed them, using the least amount of minigun ammo...

They delayed filming a few times and those delays and problems resulted in it - Del Toro talks about it here - http://newboards.theonering.net/forum/gforum/perl/gforum.cgi?do=post_view_threaded;post=261703;sb=post_time;so=DESC;

Well technically U-571 was sunk and not captured so there's all sorts of errors in that picture. Poland had captured (1928) and cracked (1932) the Enigma code and gave that information to the UK before the war. The British captured an updated Enigma machine/codebook when they captured U-110 in 1942 (amid 13 other captures during the war). The US captured U-505 and Canada the U-774 in 1944 the only non-British captures .

We replaced the British in U-571 about the capture of the Enigma machine in WWII, I don't think fidelity in film to history has ever been our strong point...

Aye. It just makes our world conquest so much harder when we cant just reduce the cities to rubble, WWII style. I mean, how will we ever overcome the Malaysian military otherwise? if you strike us down, Malaysians military will become more powerful than you can ever imagine... "The Force is strong with this one." We become spectral ghost who walk around and do nothing other than talk... Which is kinda scary, really, because you can't just walk away from a conversation with a Force Ghost - they can follow you anywhere!

From the news stories I've read the Japanese work ethic/work schedule is such that many employees don't have time to do anything other than work, eat and sleep. Not having time for relationships, the birth-rate dipped drastically. So I think over the last few years there's been a lot of attempts to "shore up" certain aspects that are lost in relationships. IE need to go to the office party but don't have a wife? Rent a date. Want some snuggling but no time for a relationship, pay for it.

I bet, this would be more successful strategy at destabilizing the ISIS, than what the west have shown so far... Sadly, were not allowed to carpet bomb anymore or everyone will whine that's its inhumane. Someone has to think of the carpets.

So far I've only been traveling with Dogmeat & Cogsworth, so dunno.

You guys are trying to ruin Fallout for me.

With Sanctuary up and running, I've decided to branch out and see what else there was in the Wasteland besides Sanctuary, a Ranger Station, Vault 111, Kill-Crazy Raiders and an ass load of mutated animals out for blood. This soon led me to an old soda shop. Hubby and I ate here a few times when returning from visiting his parents; place has really let itself go in the past 200 years. Note to Self: Probably don't want to drink the 200 year-old sodas. Not that I doubt Nuka Cola is still the same as it was back in my day, but that's kind of the problem, isn't it? Thankfully, the proprietor trades in more than foodstuff. Time to unload crap! offer great deals to the proprietor. To misquote Ben Grimm, "It's Bartering Time!" Note to Self: Might get more caps for Raider outfits if I'd washed bloodstains out. I checked out their selection of fine pre-war hats: Note to Self: Would have been less expensive if I'd not bought all the hats. And the winner is: Note to Self: The law profession's gain was definitely the Coast Guard's loss. And now it is time to resume creep-crawling through the wasteland. Note to Self: Might want to see if I can salvage some knee-pads. Haven't seen any football uniforms having survived the war yet though...

My understanding is that the Stiller Mitty had more to do with being a love letter to LIFE Magazine than it did Thurber's short story (which was the basis of the Kaye film). Not saying its a bad film, just that it seems not to be a very good adaption of a story.

Yeah I didn't realize dogmeat could be used as a packmule so spent a lot of the early game stuffing stuff in the workshop and coming back to it if I absolutely had to have (I'm looking at you, duct tape).

So apparently you can cook radroaches now. Cogsworth indicated I'd been gone for a little over 200 years...guess I am ready to eat anything. Note to Self: Scavange wasteland for a spice rack Cogsworth thought it might be worth heading to town to see what I could find. I found a dorkus who wouldn't help me build anything. Oh and some other people. Note to Self: Sturges is a tool. I've built some furniture in the ruins of my old home. Here are my cabinets (bottom is clothes, top is guns ("Top Gun, get it Goose?)). Also I found a hat. Might have been Old Man McKeever's. Hopefully the dust I brushed off of it wasn't Old Man McKeever. Note to Self: Why did I collect all those hairbrushes?

Yeah it is endearingly strange. Just some bizarre ideas and inexplicable translations of some of the Super Mario Bros world. I liked Hook when it came out, but there's a couple of sections that are maudlin and hard to watch on repeated viewings. That said the lost boys are a bit embarrassing. BANGARANG!

My knowledge of the Philippines history is limited, and I understand that there were at one point a number of different areas that had been influenced by diffierent groups (sometimes being different ethnic groups). Like I said, not trying to excuse the Spanish, who really did run roughshod over it (or even the USA who did some dodgy stuff in the Phillippenes as well, as I recall). As Hurlshot says, Islam right now accounts for 1% of the religious population of the US. The vast majority identify as Christian (around 70% IIRC). I think Judaism is the only other religion to get 1% or more of the poplation. That said the two member of the House (Ellis and Andre Carson of Indiana) who are Muslim is about half you'd expect with a population distribution in an abstract sense, its kind of hard to apply that numerical approach to voting patterns that don't always follow identity demographics, though.

Personally, I blame christianity Me too...about 500 years ago my land was attacked by Christians, "For God, Gold and Glory!", that's how Christianity comes to my land...first it was Portuguese and they manage to crush Malay Kingdom of Melaka in 1511AD...then the Dutch, Spain and English...all the same...but English is more slicky and diplomatic...you know Philipine? That country was named after Spanish king....it was Malay Moro Muslim land...today those Moro fighters still fighting for independence and they are labelled as terrorists.... Er, forgive me if I do not recall correctly, and I'm not trying to be unfair with respect to the Philippines, but didn't the Bruneian Empire take over land (part of which evenentually becoming Manilla) from the Tonda's and install a muslim rajah by force? And prior to the Moro's intercession, wasn't the primary population of the Phillipines the non-Muslim Tagalog (the Phillippines reflecting, IIRC, mostly indigenous and Hindu influences)? (Note that none of this excuses the Spanish conquistadores, just pointing out that Islam's move into the Philippines wasn't without its own "issues"). Keith Ellison of Minnesota is a Muslim and a member of the House of Representatives. A city in Michigan recently elected a majority Muslim city council.

Wait, do people think oil comes from dinosaurs? Sinclair Oil did... But yeah, at one time it was a thing, and it lives on in the popular imagination for some.

The kissing/bikini thing reminds me of a friend who lived in Singapore for many years. She always said that if you could take what we in the US would consider to be restrictions (public displays of affection, spitting, vandalism ala Michael Fay, etc) that it was a great place to live.

I know American police just shoot people if seeing carrying weapons...especially non-white Americans...i see these a lot on your news...some who get shot don't even carry weapon but gadgets or something on the hand believed to be a weapon...so don't tell me they will ask for permit first, i know....we have internet here...but those rally at mosque no one care they carrying weapons And i don't say police in my country is good, they are all the same...police are never good but we need them isn't? Generally speaking a rally gets more scrutiny than an average guy/gal on the street. You can be guaranteed that police at a rally are not going to try to instigate something while under extra scrutiny. And if the people at the rally weren't shooting their guns then the police are going to be extra careful while the extra eyes are upon them. Edit: Dude at US airport carrying a gun legally: http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/man-raises-eyebrows-carrying-gun-through-atlanta-a/nmTFS/ (I'm sure that now the discussion will shift to "but he's not a muslim!")

Really? But if Muslims in America make rally and shout "Death to America!", bring weapons, burning American flag, drawing your presiden face funnily or even Jesus, burn the Bible...they will get shot by the police isn't it? Bringing weapons will probably cause the police to come and check permits. Resisting the permit check or not having a proper permit will lead to an arrest (which itself could escalate things but that wouldn't be the intent). Most people who rally around controversial sentiments aren't going to bring weapons for that reason. But none of the rest of it is really actionable. Heck political cartoonists draw the president in caricature everyday - many will also do Jesus or the Pope if there's a reason; that's barely a blip on our radar.

[apologies, forgot to post screenshots for a few days] OMG! They killed Hubby! And are stealing mah baby! Note to Self: Burning this face into my cerebral cortex in case I can actually get out of this obviously not a decontamination chamber thing. Reality check - everyone else is dead. I've found a gun and am shooting giant radioactive roaches. Note to Self: Reality sucks. Having escaped the Vault, it seems our little subdivision is still standing Note to Self: I don't think a new coat of paint is going to help Well we're kind of hoping he isn't...
