Yeah, the goal shouldn't just be to beat him, it should be to beat him with such a wide margin that attempting another coup is frightening.

Probably powering that ambiguously-shaped object she's holding.

Cable has negative value to me. I don't get why anyone would want to pay to have a line serve them so many ads. And the cheap cable package is garbage on the content side, too.

I couldn't stand the character. It feels like another level of evil to be able to read minds but still trample the fuck over everyone's boundaries.

The funniest posts are when commenters get angry OP disagrees with them or makes their own decisions. It's like they think seeking advice creates a binding contract to follow that advice if it gets agreed with enough.

If you follow advice that you don't agree with, you are an idiot, even if the advice is actually good. And disagreeing or arguing when you don't agree is a good way to resolve it if you don't see why someone would suggest that.

People should only go to that sub for entertainment. Or if you bring a real problem there, use it as a way to get a variety of different perspectives while keeping in mind some commenters might be literal teenagers (or even younger) with no life experience and half of the replies will be either projecting their own shit onto your situation, won't understand what you wrote, or want to play Sherlock Holmes but their version relies on assumptions they pull out of their ass instead of genius level observational skills, logic, and most of all, the favour of sir Arthur Conan Doyle who can write him as smart or as dumb as his plot about a genius detective needs him to be. Oh, and assholes, the real assholes are in the comments.

And if you scroll down to the bottom of the thread, you get to see some really interesting world views. Or sometimes the rational ones when one of the more popular biases gets triggered.

Dick Cheney: Ok, I'll clean up the mess.

Narrator: He said "up" but meant "out".

Eliminate the corporate veil. The people making and benefiting from the decisions made by corporations should be the ones liable, not some entity that doesn't really exist and can be made to truly not exist if continuing pretending to exist cuts off the money train.

Though this would require fixing the justice and political systems first, since they've been corrupted by people who think this is the way things should look.

He did look pretty cool landing a fighter jet on that carrier before those embarrassing photos where he briefly thought the Iraq war ended with Saddam being deposed, too.

Is it a collection of games or more of a mashup? Ie, do you get a menu where you pick one of many games that are independent of each other, or is there an overall narrative (or something) that ties them all together like the NES remix packs?

Which is just regular conservation of momentum plus a force directing it towards some center point it oscillates around, which feels weird because you can hold a lot more of it in your hands than you normally can without that oscillation.

Oh come on, Mr Bean wasn't that weird.

Just like when a news website pops up a request to send notifications. Um fuck no? I'm not sitting around waiting for new propaganda to drop such that I want to know immediately when something comes out.
