Okay, fair.

And then instruct the pawn to pet the cat.

Wasn’t the detail of him having internal bleeding from an anonymous tip that was called in?

Thought I saw something about that…

That’s…
That’s literally middle class…

Handsome Jack. Most people find him funny-hateable, but I just found him gratingly annoying. I got two hours into BL2 and quit, then never came back. Which was a pity, because I was playing it with my wife and we had a blast with BL1.

Trying to find any major piece of media that is completely apolitical is virtually impossible. The point of this channel isn’t to nitpick whether or not some specific work is political; it’s to have funnies that aren’t related to current affairs.

This is the United States. We don’t do cool trains. Only cars are allowed to be cool.

It happens a lot less often here than it did on Reddit, but I too get a slight twinge of dread from it.

Reminds me of Florans from Chucklefish games.

“Ohhhh, I thought you meant kill count.”

That’s like saying webrings didn’t exist, only discrete websites.

Oh, I stand corrected! It’s only a reposted image with the signature cut off.

Thanks for the link to a cleaner version!

And eventually the heads start to fear for their safety and stop poking out of their safe spaces.

I’m not entirely sure being in a constant state of panicked contingency planning is necessarily masculine.

Blowing shit up is, though.

(Really though, caring about his fellow crawlers and insisting on always helping as many people as possible is very cool of him, and would qualify as positive masculinity.)

I feel like that is overly reductive. These are people who are seeing their lives become harder year over year, and are being handed a convenient scapegoat by people they were taught to trust. Their biggest crime is usually a lack of critical thinking… to start with. It often grows from there to a lack of empathy.

I hate it - but I at least have a reason. I can’t stand sweet and savory in the same dish without enough tartness to make up for the sweetness (see: barbecue sauce, and even then it’s dicey). Pineapple simply isn’t tart enough to go on a savory pizza in my opinion, especially when cooked.

I like all the online features that aren’t invasions.

Invasions, however, are simply punishing me for reviving. I don’t seek out PvP, which means I don’t have all the techniques they use for cheap crits, I don’t have a PvP focused loadout (I tend to go for slow weapons and I’m usually not all that optimized), etc., etc., so when I get invaded it’s mostly ‘Welp, this run is a loss. Better die somewhere I can get back to.’ I know I’m going to get one-shotted with some OP weapon from someone who fishes out a lagstab, and it’s been that way since Demon’s Souls.

The point of a necktie is to cover up the buttons on your shirt. #2 is correct.

Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some secret Google search engine that still has decent search results instead of the paid-for mess that us plebs get.

AI, on the other hand? The flaws are intrinsic.

Coconuts are just really, really big seeds. They’re a nut, as the name implies.

However, I have a counterpoint because there is one fruit that I absolutely like with chocolate. Dried mango slices in dark chocolate are delicous.

Well, okay, two - bananas in chocolate are tasty. Back in the times when chocolate fountains were a regular occurrence at events, I could have eaten half my body weight in them.

Bananas makes sense in my mind; they aren’t overly flavorful, so there isn’t a strong fruit flavor that clashes with the chocolate. Why mangoes work so well, on the other hand, is beyond me.
