A favorite band of mine. The ancient Icelandic curse I put on Daigensui is adapted from the fourth stanza of the first song, lol

Mythbusters did that actually. I think they actually got a couple of bullets to fuse, but one might have been stationary when they actually got it to work.

Depraved bourgeois fashion

One thing that always bothered me about Bush, is that people ever criticize his presidency for things like his Bushisms instead of the things he actually did as president, as if saying 'nukular' had any actual bearing on his doings as head of state.

Sorry

Now in the Steam store; a romantic comedy about ships of wood, sails of cloth, and men of iron (if you know what I mean). Very beautiful game but the grind is real and it can take an obnoxious amount of time to get from one point to another. Chief selling points are 'age of sail', trading mechanics (which will hopefully become less broken), and very pretty.

Almost all the maps have three lanes that lead from green team to red team, and one of them useless. Any arty with a speck of pattern recognition knows where people are going to go, it's not because people out of habit to the same places for some arbitrary reason, it's because people can only reliably influence the battle from those places. Prokhorovka for example, the only places to reliably influence the battle are in the mid next to the tracks, and from the hill. You can be unspotted for as long as you like on the 1-2 line, but your contributions to the team are limited by the fact that you cannot support any other flank and cannot engage what is on your own flank. Steppes is the same way except that it has only one viable lane; only the east is a viable place to be. Sometimes a team might win quickly in the west, push, and take the cap, but nine times out of ten the game the west gets bogged down and spends the match waiting for the east to be decided. If you dive into the bowl in the east, then you've managed to probably avoid arty, but you can't influence the match until you leave the bowl (although you can have fun shooting whatever hulldowned tank is in front of you), and you'll have a hard time getting back out of the bowl to be useful without getting shot. And, of course, the east is composed of light hills and is totally open to arty, because encouraging players to not push or actively work towards winning is exactly what arty does. If the goal is winning, you have to suffer the risk of being one-shot by someone you simply cannot avoid or retaliate against until the match is won. XVM sniping and RNG can be irritating, but the reason that arty is broken is because it punishes you for trying to influence the battle into your favor.

I plan to have the creakiest rocking chair when I get old

I didn't know this was a cover until my dad happened to hear it. He listened for a moment, got a confused look on his face, and said "this isn't Dolly Parton"

Today I learned Donald Trump's grandfather was an immigrant who was determined to have left Germany for tax and draft evasion
