If we say that the accepted pronunciation of “X” is “ex” then we run into an even bigger problem than Prince’s logo.

“Ex” User says… Is this a former user of the website or current?

A user on the website “ex” is too long winded and sounds like I’m saying a hypothetical.

Users on “ex” - although shorter, X is a street name for ecstacy and user is sometimes used as shorthand for drug user (e.g. User and abuser) so why should we be listening to a cracked out party kid?

The golden ticket is “formerly Twitter” because we actually know what the fuck that one is.

I’m willing to bet there’s at least one X user on X right now.

How long was Prince “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince”?

Yeah, the rest of his life.

Twitter probably will have the same laid upon it.

I mean, I believe in you. You technically CAN do something about that. It will probably break in the process though.

Look at it this way, BMI is a cross section of weight and height. I was considered “overweight” for ages because I just had tree trunk thighs from hiking and weightlifting. Like, less than 16% body fat but told I’m ‘overweight’ every time I got weighed.

The ruler was fucking wrong.

Nowadays, I’m much more of a fat fuck so the ruler is right now but only just so… I’m still under 25% when using hydrostatic!

engraved in their gun’s sights while doing the seeking?

Not sights, Dust cover. Meaning the only way the message is exposed is if the user has loaded a round in the chamber.

Which is so, so much worse.

Would you claim the second an athlete leaves the field they’re no longer an athlete?

“Sports” cars are tuned towards their racing counterparts. Auto racing is a sport. We don’t know if that owner does autocross, probably not, but that is classified as a Sports Car regardless of anything else.

Be nice if there was an easy way to just do this with any car. Like, I’m willing to get you could get a rough model with FreeCAD and some references but it’d be really cool to have a drive through laser scan or something.

BMW drivers have the same opinions about whatever you’re driving too… Even other Beemers. At least the second part.

You throwing babies away?

Hell, at that price point, buy two and have an awning setup in-between them to link them.

Privacy from the kids and still under $38k.

I’d get one as an in-law suite even!

You’re just supposed to say the two in sequence.

1. Slap it
2. That’s not going anywhere
3. As you walk away, say “ain’t going nowhere”
4. Drive away and watch as you sand blast everything in your rear view

Eastern Syria houses a big prison full of ISIS guys, so ISIS wants them back. They hang out and attack the prison every now and again. Countries don’t want their ISIS members back and the SDF is the only ones willing to hold them.

So, every now and again “the coalition” sends some US jets over to bomb them and in return they’ll probably attack a checkpoint in northern Iraq.

The joke was literally already made in the OP.

I disagree. Point one, the point of COD games was always to be the “Good Guys™” defeating the “Bad Guys®” but this level has you doing Bad© Guy™ stuff… So do YOU do bad guy stuff because you’ve got to so you can do Good° Guy© stuff or do you abstain? This point is somewhat ruined by “The cops showed up, we gotta shoot them.” Which then directly shows you the gameplay loop of the entire game and begs you not to engage with it.

Point two, Spec Ops: The Line, don’t worry not the white phosphorus scene. In the refugee camp you need to disperse a crowd of unarmed refugees who are going to kill you. They’ve killed your squad mate and your other squad mate awaits your order. You open fire on the crowd and your squad mate says “What the FUCK? You didn’t need to gun them down!” Jokes on you, the whole time you could’ve shot in the air and they would’ve run. You made the choice to gun them down despite not having weapons. The gameplay loop is “Shoot bad guys because they shoot at you” not “shoot anything you feel threatened by.”

The point of the game can be anything. The gameplay loop is to shoot enemies to win levels. The point was that unarmed civilians aren’t enemies. Are cops though?

Not to defend the game itself but Neptunia is at least on some level a parody of other JRPGs, so the title is meant invoke that cringe. The first one was still called Hyperdimension Neptunia and the “resemicolonbirth” line was a remake which has its own remake now as well with a star in the title…

So, like I said, not defending it.

I heard that more commonly referring to Micro USB but, yeah, most people used to ask what phone you have, not what cable.

You liked the drunken bum half. It just gets more stupid when the other guy’s woman is a super hero too.

More that I wish cats would just climb down themselves, ya know?

I’m still using a 1070ti and hitting stable 60fps with newer games. Medium to low settings, usually but most slow down comes from poor optimization since I’m running a 12th Gen and regularly see medium usage on both GPU and CPU.

Most people don’t know “what” anything is in that case. Cars? Most people don’t know what a clutch master cylinder is - they just know how to use the car. Most people don’t know what an app is, since they don’t understand the code language it was built in. Sure, they know how to use it but without knowing Java, it may as well be magic. Vaccines! No one knows what they are! There’s no simple explanation so everyone who’s ever used a vaccine has no idea what they are!

The average person does not have specialized knowledge about anything, even things ubiquitous to modern life.

Yeah, Trump is technically right here but at the end of the day, I don’t really care if a firefighter knows exactly how every app on their phone works, just as long as they know how to put out fires and maybe rescue cats from trees.
