Captain: "What happened? How did you die?"

Wan: shrugs

I don't care if people are have to be led there with a lollipop and a soda if it gets people voting. Civic duty is important, but people need encouragement.

Oh you need to see the fight from "They Live" if you haven't. Classic 80s era fight that just goes on for WAY too long. So many times of "Now Ive won. Take THAT." "RRRRAH" fight immediately starts again

Actually yeah now that you mention it, it does sound like something out of a renaissance festival where they're setting up a scheduled show lol.

"Dirty Dave I'm calling you out! You and I are going to have a duel to the death! At 12:00 in the town square! Right in front of the Hootenanny Stage! Be there to see who is the winner! Tips welcome!"

I'll just add to this, 9mm, or any handgun really, is still very loud. The reason it doesn't seem as loud is because when most people are shooting there are two main things happening.

1. They're behind the barrel, normally this doesn't matter much, but the sound is at least a little directional, so being in front of it is going to make it much louder.
2. Most people aren't shooting it in their house, they're at a gun range. The space in front of you at the range allows for the sound to travel and the pressure to spread through the room, slightly reducing the impact of the sound. Shoot one in a tiny room and it's going to be much worse for you.

Again it's still really loud, but the context of where the sound is being made does make a difference. Obviously larger rounds will be louder, but that doesn't mean rounds like 9mm are safe for your ears at all.

I long for the days where movies would tell you it's night time but still actually keep it light enough that you can, y'know watch the movie

The thing that really sucks is that to a lot of voters, results are instant. Every time the price of anything goes up, it's the current presidents fault. Seen all those "I Did That!" Stickers idiots put on gas pumps? It makes no sense when you're talking on an economic scale for things to suddenly shift overnight, or even in 2-4 years. But a huge bump in inflation from companies trying to capitalize on economic changes through covid? Ope, bidens fault.

There are so many political schemes that take advantage of the "right now" results, even if those results are from years of changes and slow effect activity. I wish I could get people to see that not every little thing that happens is because someone in govt went to the "magic number machine" and moved the sliders up or down that morning.

They don't care to do anything about those

Ah that explains it

Isn't there a whole big deal about Fred Meyer merging with them and some anti monopoly bs going on?

Yeah see it's not surge pricing! We actually lower prices whentheresnobodyintheaisle so that the discounts are passed on to you! Also we list the lowered price in the ads and apps so when you come in you can be surprised by power of our tech! and the updated price

Oh my God someone PLEEAASE. We need to get that made and going around.

I always thought there was supposed to be some kind of PPE or cleanup team that has to do that. Thankfully never had it at any of my old retail jobs but one of my friends said at their grocery store they basically just had a high powered hose they blasted everything down with then went after with sanitizer

Life has many doors!

Genuinely love how little things like this got past the censors

As far as I'm concerned she hasn't won until she's sworn in. And that's the approach people need to take. I agree with convincing Democrats to get their shit together, but this thought train of "I'm not even gonna vote, it's already won/it doesn't matter" is exactly the kind of shit that gets us in trouble. Get out there and vote. It's your fucking responsibility as a citizen of this country. Do it.

No. No. Absolutely not no. I don't care if youre a Democrat in the middle of rural Kansas. Get the fuck out there and vote. This kind of defeatist shit is exactly what lets those locked in areas get away with it. A revolution has to have attendees. Show up. Vote. Even if you feel like you're voting alone, you're not.

What was that story, there's a creepypasta about the moon or deep oceans or something that was basically "We explored somewhere new, only two crew came back, they refused to say anything besides "don't go back." They were found dead the next day by their own hands"

Yeah but physical activity will make you feel better. That's not why we're here man get with it.

Yeah, as far as the movie goes he's not a "real" portrayal of a psychopath. He's supposed to make you feel scary and uncomfortable. It's like going to a haunted house and complaining the killer clowns look fake.

He's supposed to make you feel worried and uncomfortable, and he nails that perfectly.
