Much easier and cheaper to fire him out rather than in. Orbital mechanics and all.

Are the people singing yet?

I would highly recommend Portal and Portal 2 as primers for basically all your 3D games. Not only did Yahzee give The Orange Box in general a glowing review, but they teach you basic gaming mechanics almost intuitively.

I swear you are me. Same fucking thing happened to me, except it was my mom that picked me up, and I had to use the library and a calculus textbook to memorize the formula, because 1991-1992 and so the computers were less than helpful for research.

Democrats have been neoliberals since the time of the first Clinton campaign. The milquetoast candidates are a direct result of that.

If you voted, then I’ll recind the analogy towards you. The 15 million democratic voters in 2020 that stayed home for whatever reason in 2024, still did exactly what I just portrayed. They had a choice to make, and they made the choice to do nothing, because things aren’t perfect.

Let’s put this a different way. You were given the choice of saving only one of two children from a burning building, and actively chose to let both of them burn to death, because you couldn’t save both.

Real superhero Karen energy, right there.

Or ⅓ + (⅓*½) = ½

What movie?

Once you wrap your head around the new orientation of things, it’s actually really well designed to work on. I figured the mechanics just didn’t want to learn anything “new”

Hawkeye: War isn’t Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse.

Father Mulcahy: How do you figure, Hawkeye?

Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell?

Father Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe.

Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them - little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander.

Edit: In case anyone missed what I was saying, “This world is worse than hell war” is how I would interpret Sir_Kevin’s comment, and I’m a veteran.

Nah, Americans just don’t like to read the manuals, and they got a bad reputation in the late '70s and early '80s when they first put turbos into the cars, because you had to pull into the driveway, and let the turbo spin down for at least 30 seconds to a minute. If you didn’t, the turbo would seize and then shred itself when you turn the car back on.

Also American mechanics don’t like the fact that the engine is not in the configuration they are used to. It’s rotated 90° on the z axis and 45 on the x axis. Absolutely solid tanks if you actually read the manual, and followed the routine maintenance recommendations.

It’s not the actual turbo that gets gummed, the fuel system is what gums up, but for some reason it’s far worse on the turbo versions of the cars. I could put low octane into the non turbo SAABs I had, and it didn’t gum up the intake the way the turbo versions did. I don’t know why.

He simulated sucking someone’s dick at a recent rally, just before the election. Not sure that would be enough to phase them.

Pre GM SAABs. I’ve personally gotten 2 of my 5 to over 1,000,000 miles on the original engine and transmission. Both manual transmission. A couple hundred of them have made it to 2,000,000 world wide. The lowest milage I killed a SAAB at was 789,000 miles. I hydroplaned into a semi on I-75, and the car still technically ran, but I gave it to my parents as a parts car. Just read the owners manual, and be absolutely religious about basic maintenance.

Oh, and the turbos don’t like low octane fuel. It gums them up.

“Politics in Russia is like watching two dogs fight under a rug. You can hear and see that something is going on, but aren’t able to tell the victor until the bones are revealed.”

They already are. This is just self defense.

Front for money laundering?

Your last description is essentially the idea behind the F-117a. That thing isn’t wasn’t flying, it’s it was achieving escape velocity.

You’re correct, Google just returns results for The Beatles because enough people search for that rather than Three Dog night, and I wasn’t paying attention

It was sang by The Beatles Three Dog Night.
