Why, have you not played any other Kojima games?

I mean, you’re the weirdo accepting random liquids from someone.

This is my only issue with having three dogs.

I only have two hands.

So if I come home and they all want attention, I have to split pets between all of them in short intervals or they start pushing each other (and me) around trying to get attention. Or rather, the biggest one pushes in and the smaller two have to climb over themselves to get to my other hand.

This hand-crafted, gold necklace with diamond, ruby sapphire, and emeralds adorning the intricately carved centerpiece?

5 gold pieces.

That moldy slice of bread you picked up accidentally from a barrel in the bottom of a 1500 year old shipwreck?

… I’ll give you 3 gold.

And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default “0000000” password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they’re incompatible with the internet.

It’s disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.

North Korea really hates the ocean.

What did the ocean ever do to north Korea?

I’ve been managing to drag some of them further left, I think, through conversation about things.

A few are 100% on board with a union as long as I keep calling it “collective bargaining” and don’t use the scary U word.

A few are on board with most social safety nets, especially when they find out Healthcare would cost less than it currently costs them in taxes alone, let alone not having to pay for insurance anymore, but the second you call it socialism or use any sort of word like “welfare” then they panic.

Individually I think I’m breaking some of them, but collectively they’re fucking idiots.

There’s a pretty simple test, IMO

Ask a person “is bombing a school filled with children okay as long as the end goal brings about the end of the world?”

If they answer “yes” then just immediately drop them into a meat grinder and use the remains for fertilizer.

Maybe it’s my cynical side, but I genuinely don’t think people like that can be fixed, so while it might be considered “cruel” it’s better to just put them out of everyone’s (including their own) misery, a “nuthouse” just gives them a place to congregate and keep trying to spread their hate.

My coworkers have already managed to blame Obama for making a “shitty deal” with Iran, and Biden for not “dealing with Iran sooner”

Maybe they mean a strap-on and OP is, in fact, a woman?

Fake: the penis is plastic Gay: OP is a lesbian woman

Too many to count, and more than I even remember.

I went without internet in an area not friendly to children being outside, so I watched movies in no particular order over and over. Just “yeah I haven’t watched this in a few weeks” and re-watch.

Lord of The Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Monty Python (all), Princess Bride, MIB, Evolution, Terminator 1&2, Starship Trooper… Honestly most popular Sci fi movies from the 90s… The sound of music, fiddler on the roof, a bunch of musicals…

I’m sure I watched the classic disney movies many times.

I know people who buy watch a movie and then don’t feel like watching any of them ever again.

Why do that and risk actually losing, when you can go after the small guy and send a message to the plebs?

The rich Douchebags that control every country don’t give a shit if the plebs starve. They’ll never know hunger.

“Eat the rich”, as always.

If I had the means, I’d have left years ago.

Having already brought this point up with a MAGAt at work, she honestly thinks they will make exceptions for all married women.

The mental gymnastics and denial of reality is exhausting.

Even as a child, I was confused by “Support Our Troops” because if you want to support them, why are you sending them to die on the other side of the planet? If you want to support them, why are so many veterans being denied Healthcare?

My dad is a veteran with service related hearing loss, and getting anything from the VA is like trying to grab the sun. I’ve heard so many stories from vets trying to get their various injuries just looked at.

“support our troops” was always just a canned line to make idiots feel good about sending others to die for the rich.

You know, I was considering putting the potential downside of “one country might just have a young and jacked leader that can thrash all the old rich people” but figured my comment was getting too long for anyone to care to read.

I think at that point the people would just have to chuck him in an active volcano instead of a pit.

Everybody gangsta till the snow starts speaking Finnish.

It’s mind-boggling that the entire history of war hasn’t been “our leaders decided they wanted a war so we tossed them in a pit with sharp sticks to figure things out and suddenly they decided war was avoidable”

We have more in common with a random American Crack dealer, a random middle-Eastern farmer, Chinese retail worker, South American factory worker, than anyone who leads major countries, anyone in the 1%.

I have no ill will toward any Iranian, in fact I’ve known quite a few immigrants and think better of Iran than most US states, yet my country leaders decided it was a good idea to bomb the fuck out of them. We should toss them in a hole until they can work together with the rest of us, yet here we are…
