"But that still doesn't mean you'll get to play it"

Well then it doesn't exist.

And until I actually am staring at the introduction screens, it's vaporware.

Have we gone on long enough to see the endless wheel of "HALF LIFE 3?????" once again spin back around? I remember seeing a handful of these a year, every time valve did anything.

Expect nothing, and you can't be disappointed.

Gotta be unpredictable, the nozzles can smell intent.

Man, seeing a ton of people all experiencing great returns on their hard work just makes me feel even worse for never experiencing any of it beyond the weight loss itself. For literal years. No good feelings, no endorphins, even some of my joints felt worse simply because they were being used more.

And now the exact same thing two days in a row!

Its great. I'm fine. This is fine. I'm not jealous or spiteful at all. Have fun working out for me I guess.

Just once I would like a movie to visit Vietnam without playing any of the 5 songs every movie has to use.

We know it's Vietnam because you've told us. We have also seen that same exact valley from 127,000 different angles and honestly I'm starting to recognize specific groups of trees.

Ever seen the same set or costume used in two movies? It's a little jarring and takes you out of the movie, if only briefly.

Now imagine you're trying to watch a serious scene and then you go "Oh hey, those trees were in the background of the intro scene to tropic thunder!" and now all you can think of is Ben Stiller's stub hands.

Okay you and Nuke can have a small one, as a treat.

Go play out back, have fun.

Well... The species will probably survive, as will a plethora of other species on the planet.

The things that definitely won't survive are modern society and it's status quo.

Nobody wants a nuclear war. I think we can all agree that it would be bad for an uncountable number of reasons.

I've had the cops called on me for taking my niece and nephew to the park a few blocks away from their house.

Nobody came to ask why I was there or which ones were mine.

Just two cops sneaking up behind me, grabbing my shoulders, hands on their guns demanding to know if I'm there with kids or I just like to fuck them.

My niece ended up calling her mother on their emergency phone and she sprinted down.

Never got an apology from anyone except my sister, who had nothing to apologize for.

I've had more amicable, but still very much confrontational encounters with people assuming I'm there for nefarious purposes.

I tend to avoid parks unless I'm with someone because of that.

I'm going out with a girl after work and we're gonna play in the park.

(It's my wife and I'll be riding my bike while she tries to get used to inline skates again. We're in our 30s.)

But for real I miss being able to just..... Enjoy a playground. Go throw rocks at the creek with friends. Have sword battles with sticks we found while walking by the trees.

But if I do that, people call the cops because some old guy is clearly confused and wandering around...

My old work ordered everything from uline, and I started bringing in my own TP specifically because of how awful it is to use that tissue paper.

Legitimately feels like tissue paper that people stuff gift bags with.

But at the same time, almost slippery.

And you WILL know if you creased the paper the wrong way, because it WILL stab at you with the force of ten thousand teeny tiny needles.

Nono, you don't understand.

It IS a ceasefire. As in Hamas ("anyone we decide to call hamas whether it's an actual rebel/terrorist/whatever or someone defending themselves from IDF thugs trying to kill/SA them or a random kid we saw walking down the street and someone's finger got itchy") has to ceasefire.

Why on earth should the IDF, paragon of virtue and goodness, an organization that has never in its history been accused or caught red-handed doing war crimes or Geneva convention violations, be forced to stop ~~murdering innocents~~ "defending themselves" just because the entire world wants them to stop, and because it's the right thing to do...

Next you'll be insisting they treat Palestinians like people! And helping rebuild the countryside they've ~~devastated~~ constructively disassembled and revitalizing the people they have ~~brutalized~~ liberated.

SMH my head

If I need the /s with that much sarcasm dripping off every letter then the world has truly gone to shit.

"is a lengthy time consuming process"

No, it REALLY isn't, and any pig that tells you otherwise is trying to get you to drop the issue so they don't have more paperwork.

They don't give a shit about your stolen items, and 9/10 times it's a complete waste to even contact them over "petty theft", regardless of how valuable the item/s are to you.
