Thank you for this comparison. That’s a fun one and one that’s made a little more ‘subtle’ in the US if only because of how common that language is among the populace in regions and how pervasive protestantism is in advertising/messaging.

I feel that. My family is from the south, and then they moved to a shitty midwest state, brought all their racist bullshit with them. I just stopped going to events, changing my number today even to avoid the texts and calls from people who already know why I don’t talk to them. So far, none of them able-to-be/worth saving, maybe some little cousins but I can’t exactly reach them.

It keeps the naturally predated-upon Sushi safe from the, although diminutive, aggressive Wasabi who’s, known for a solitary nature when in the wild.

…can we talk about Kidneyfoot Jenny, or do you think they were just trying to differentiate between her and Mexican Jennie?

But why do you despise it? I’ve heard criticism for Americans taking ‘American’ when there are many many more countries in The Americas and have yet to see the term above until now, but it doesn’t bother me any.

Why is it that if he’s a dumb young 20 he can’t gain any intelligence? Why is the line I keep seeing from people “well he didn’t know at the time, and that’s damning enough”, like, do you know anyone who has ever signed up for the military at 18-25 to bd ‘smart’ or informed?

Thank you for this. I gave it a good (confusing) read, they could stand to type in less capitals.

I can see the regulations outlined, but not that he was turned away for it being a known nazi symbol or anything based on that description, it sounds like he got a tattoo without clearing it or reporting it on his paperwork and chose not to appeal, based on his words there in the reddit post.

I appreciate you finding that for me, it was hard to parse all the google garbage

Thanks anyway! Yeah military jargon and acronyms out the ass go hand in hand and any manager that’s a vet I’ve worked for just tosses them around like ‘sentence enhancers’.

If you know about MARADMIN, can you elaborate on what he means? I looked it up and understand it as a kind of code of conduct, but don’t see what changed in 2007, just that he said a USMC based tattoo was what prevented him.

Can you give a source on that or a general direction on where to look? I’ve heard about the tattoo and looked into it during the initial controversy and did not find that information at the time.

I disagree.

Low millions, like your net worth in your 60s when you own a home, potentially two cars, and a retirement fund. 1-4 million? Sure, not rich, well off by most standards.

Closing in on thay double digit millions? Yeah you’re rich. Hell, in most of the US, having a net worth of 7 million dollars is the ‘eccentric millionaire’ level for most of rural America.

I don’t know, psychopathic tendencies run all over the Reynolds family.

Lack of empathy, a pattern of manipulating others, persistent antisocial behaviors (the DENNIS system, most of the gang’s plans), an innate immunity to stress (like when he just willed his stress away in the ‘mental health day’ episode)

Man’s a psychopath

The only place in town that sells shirts for a dollar and shoes for three is the salvation army, and let me tell you, they don’t have much for the Big and Tall.

I, too, wear things until they’re broken. I have shirts I’ve been wearing since hogh school. I don’t shop at dollar general, but that’s because it’s an evil conglomerate with the intent to drive out other businesses with their extremely low quality goods sourced from cheap/slave labor across the seas. That, and they don’t have my sizes

We don’t ‘punish and make an example’ out of children in civilized society.

We educate them, allow for reform. Until the child has a mostly formed prefrontal cortex, they shouldn’t receive ‘adult’ type consequences. They literally are not developed enough mentally to grasp all of life’s rights and wrongs. That’s not to say they don’t have a gauge of morality, or some concept of what they think Right is, it’s just not all the way fleshed out and their poor stupid neuron-developing brain doesn’t fire the way it’s going to later in life.

Prior to Gamefaqs, I myself was perusing Gamewinners.com…a similar forum site lol

Boo, “pro censorship” arguments presented as concern for others.

Parts are in central. Have a sister or bear the western edge

Being anti-‘US invades sovereign nation’ doesn’t mean people are pro-cartel.

I, personally, don’t want the US involved in this without Mexico’s express consent and agreement, with Mexico leading the charge and decisions.

You’re encouraged to shovel toxic garbage into the masses here. They said ‘Bread and Circus’ so we’re getting sucrose-brioche and 24 hours of terrible news to watch.

That’s crazy to know the Netherlands fast food isn’t exactly cheap. It’s becoming not cheap here, as well, the prices rising faster than the cost of living and only a little behind grocery prices.

I am not far enough to know if it happens an additional time, or if he ever gets them repaired. In the book I read first (supposedly 7th in the series, by mistake) it seemed he could make some expressions but that takes place a while after the first book in the series that I’m wrapping up, where it has just recently taken place.

The first book is called Xenos, at least that’s where I’m reading that covered the paralysis part.
