Two rejoinders to that: the video games and the books. Rogue Squadron, Shadows of the Empire, and even that one game in the arcade (that was so frustrating) were amazing. I personally wasn't as much of a fan of the Thrawn trilogy as some, but the books about the kids of the movies' characters were pretty fun to get through.
I think the majority of the X and millennial fans fell in love through those just as much as from the original movies.
Texas, specifically, passed a law since the last election that lets them throw away votes from democratic areas areas with 'issues.' It basically only targets a specific democratic area right now, but I would put the chances of them using it well above 50%.
I've been waiting for the day I get to push someone from the plane. Everyone always talks about it, and hopes it doesn't happen to them, but we all secretly want to have the experience of applying our foot to someone else's ass at altitude.
Keep your pilot chute stowed, lads.
This has been a message from your local skydiver's unvoiced desires
The untold story: 1.) the grade was curved due to everyone's low numbers
2.) no one wanted to get near the rocks to identify them because there was one weird mofo walking on all fours around the displays, randomly snarling and licking each one
Homeslice identified a few more than everybody else and his grade shot to the moon.
First, they aren't critical in either of those roles, and second, there are a few thousand species of mosquitoes, and only five of them cause issues with human health. Get rid of those five, and you haven't caused much ruckus. The others will be fine in their continued parts.
Now, that being said, nobody knows for certain what will happen if all five are completely eradicated, but the sentiment above seems to be the consensus among people who have studied them.
Aye, and 2 seconds is the bare minimum. A company I have worked for wanted 4 seconds between you and the car in front. That always felt a little much, but it definitely helped prevent wrecks.
Even funner fact: anyone remember the USS Liberty? A common thought is Israel did that to pull us into their war then. Nowadays you would have a presidential candidate boldly declaring that [insert 'vile' country of choice] killed our troops and we must rush to war against them. I bet there are israeli leaders just salivating at the idea of repeating the scenario.
The situation is infuriating. It's a fact that the people responsible for stirring up the fools will never see consequences for their actions. This stochastic terrorism shit needs to be acted against.
I'd just prefer to tell them how to get rid of carbon in their bodies, and if they looked up the process they would get the real info about it dealing with carbon. It's not my fault they don't know the context of what would happen when the carbon goes away.
Alleged? Oh man, let me just get out my modern day naval warfare mini figs, and the modern rulebook (do you like 2e or 3e?), and let's see your battleships take on my missile destroyers! It is ON, Farragut!
Maybe I'm just grumpy, but by the time the potatoes are finger-licking good, you'll be quite unalive. Even if the potatoes were boiling first before you went in, you're still going to have an impossible time not screaming and flailing as you suffer third degree burns in fractions of a second.
