I’d love another good hero shooter after Overwatch shit the bed, and Rivals doesn’t really do it for me.
It’s been my favorite multiplayer genre since the Quake World Team Fortress.

Imagine being such a snowflake that you don’t do the assignment, instead going off about GAWD and DEMONS, then writing the goddamn governor because you failed to do an incredibly simple task.

I used to be a technician for a BMW dealership where we serviced an Alpina B7 with eyelashes. Clearly money can’t buy taste.

German food is incredible; I didn’t even know hating German food was a thing. Gimme those sausages, sauerkrauts, cheeses, cold cuts, schnitzel and hot potato salads every day.
The breads, cakes, chocolate, and pastries are next-level too.

Yeah, when a grown-ass man is fucking teenagers I assume it’s because they want someone to control and/or exploit.

VGA stands for “vestigial garbage adapter” after all.

We rarely get snow in Texas; we get a solid sheet of ice that covers everything. The city also doesn’t plow, and nobody has snow tires because it’s only going to be a day or two.
Yeah, southern drivers don’t know how to drive (in or out of snow, really), but places like Denver and Dallas have such different experiences that it’s not really fair to compare them. It’d be like mocking Alaskins because they’re miserable in 90°F; they don’t have the AC to handle what is incredibly mild weather to me.

The implication was that they’re smarter than “the educated.”
It’s an old fascist saw that folk wisdom is better than book-learning.
From They Thought They Were Free- the Germans, 1933-45:
Because the mass movement of Nazism was nonintellectual in the beginning, when it was only practice, it had to be anti- intellectual before it could be theoretical. What Mussolini’s official philosopher, Giovanni Gentile, said of Fascism could have been better said of Nazi theory: “We think with our blood.” Expertness in thinking, exemplified by the professor, by the high-school teacher, and even by the grammar- school teacher in the village, had to deny the Nazi views of history, economics, literature, art, philosophy, politics, biology, and education itself.
Thus Nazism, as it proceeded from practice to theory, had to deny expertness in thinking and then (this second process was never completed), in order to fill the vacuum, had to establish expert thinking of its own— that is, to find men of inferior or irresponsible caliber whose views conformed dishonestly or, worse yet, honestly to the Party line. The nonpolitical pastor satisfied Nazi requirements by being nonpolitical. But the nonpolitical schoolmaster was, by the very virtue of being nonpolitical, a dangerous man from the first. He himself would not rebel, nor would he, if he could help it, teach rebellion; but he could not help being dangerous— not if he went on teaching what was true. In order to be a theory and not just a practice, National Socialism required the destruction of academic independence.
In the years of its rise the movement little by little brought the community’s attitude toward the teacher around from respect and envy to resentment, from trust and fear to suspicion. The development seems to have been inherent; it needed no planning and had none. As the Nazi emphasis on nonintellectual virtues (patriotism, loyalty, duty, purity, labor, simplicity, “blood,” “folk- ishness”) seeped through Germany, elevating the self-esteem of the “little man,” the academic profession was pushed from the very center to the very periphery of society.

People can be led by the nose if you confirm their bigotry and make them think they’re smart.
- Comment on Feminism.... Not even once folks 2 months ago:
I’ve found that most people who hate feminism are sad divorcees who are pissed because they couldn’t financially trap their spouse into legalized rape.
Hating equal rights for women says a lot more about you than it does about women.
