What? Now you can't even turn the country into an absolutist dictatorship anymore? I thought this was AMERICA! Political correctness gone overboard!

Cars are useful. Cars protect children in many situations. Cars are among the things that majorly contribute to even having a food supply. Cars freedom patriotism eagles liberty-gasm!

Yet it is still possible to have cars serve those functions without giving in to the lobbies that wish to make it mandatory to get paid for shoving a car down the throat of every loony who wants one to hurt others with. Because cars are well regulated to make them as safe as possible.

Any first-person-shooter is technically a point and click game.

Mention the concept of a daily stand-up pledge of allegiance in schools in any other democracy and get laughed at.

I bet astronauts are great at showering.

have you ever had a shower in under two minutes and washed your whole body?

Yes. My first thought was whether there may be a "best practice" way of showering efficiently and which professions may have suggestions on that (either jobs that are very time-constrained or jobs that are tight on resources?) and whether there were more effective ways of catching the water than a bucket (maybe some elaborate tarp placement? probably not feasible. the ultimate tarp placement would be one just around the body like one of the shields in star trek or star wars. maybe one of those bubble soccer balls upside down filled with water and one showerer? rolling down a hill in a plastic hamster ball full of water would be fun. also terrifying and basically dynamic waterboarding, but fun) and that was when the two minutes ended.

Are you limited to either having a thought or moving your body at any given time? I hope you don't drive cars or perform other activities that require more than zero thoughts at once.

Well, actually, a skull can exist, can lie on the floor, can decay, so it CAN do something after all.

No, it'll be running THAT cave from DA2 over and over, but this time in different colours!

Experience and memory, mostly.

"People were complaining that I sent them to fetch me a sandwich every five minutes, so we listened to their complaints and next game, the player character will have no legs and thus not be able to move anymore."

You now have a one-quest-long window to do these three steps in order otherwise you will never be able to complete this quest line due to missing out on the item that's only available if you use this specific thingamajig on the other thingamajig in the hidden room. There isn't any indication of that in the entire game, except that some quest will never ever finish and be stuck on the vague "find x things" stage forever. If you google how to finish the quest in thirty hours of game time, you're just SoL. Better luck next run.

What exactly is the "role" one is playing here? Diviner? Psychic reading the game dev's mind?

FOMO - the game

Sorry, but no compassion from me: shouldn't have built the road right under a lava stream. Stupid decision, really.

Best I can do is give you a list of the worst deals for you that will bring your money to the corporations who paid me the most with a nice helping of targeted ads for all eternity.

Piano misses as well, redshirt dies from a heart attack.

Just sad that the picts were exterminated/assimilated by the 12th century throughout the british isles.

If you can prove that influencing the testimony was the intention behind it and if you can furthermore prove that he himself did it.

If he says the magic words "nope, the timing and the people benefiting from it were pure coincidences" and "I knew nothing, it was once again that one criminal underling whom I don't even know despite him having been my fixer for years", historically he gets away with it with very few exceptions.

Hey! HEY! I resent that remark - yeah, sure, maybe it is exactly that, BUT it is also at least in equal parts an attempt to shove ads down the throats of customers who are rendered helpless to resist by the factor you mentioned.

"Well, you can't prevent all assaults in the world, so why shouldn't I punch you in the face now?" is a rather defeatist point of view.
