    North Carolina doesn't count

    It has north in it

    I'm really proud that we were the last to leave the Union and all, but we're south of the Mason-Dixon line, we were a part of the Confederacy, and grits are endemic to our state

    Louisiana, New Orleans in particular, is a much much different flavor

    And besides that it is as french as you will get in the u.s.

    Yeah man North Carolina is not the sweet south at all.

    Also - It's not the dirty dirty south at all.

    That's why I love Maryland. We had Union and Confederate regiments. Whoever won, so did we!

    It'd be great if it was a job system like Final Fantasy Tactics.

    "I'm fucking tired of being a Dragoon. I want to be a Ninja! *is a Ninja*"

    This goddamned post

    Dude, I fucking loved Tactics.

    Every time someone brings FFT up, I am reminded of the time where I stupidly traded away my copy of it.

    Was the best PS1 game no arguments.
    Fuck you FF8 and FF7 were shit.

    Man Tennessee has done some pretty ok stuff, but then again me and my family are facing prejudice on a surprisingly regular basis in ways that I thought only showed up in shitty lifetime films or weird subplots of the L word, soooo

    I dunno. Knock the people, but go UT.

    AMP'd, did I tell you that I'm looking at grad programs in North Carolina? I figure I've lived everywhere else in the U.S., I might as well try the place I've been vacationing for years!
    Possibly because I have lost my mind

    I was up in the northeast corner, around Sneedville. I only remember because the uniqueness of the name. I was there for a funeral of a relative of a friend of mine. It was a family graveyard, one they have had since 1850. It was on the side of a mountain, and seeing as it rained the night before was muddy as hell. as we approached the base, they removed the casket from the hearse, and placed it into the back of a Chevy 4x4 to make it up the hill.

    Fucking Tennessee.

    it was alright

    it wasn't no epic
    mostly pretty
    partly creepy
    whoever animated the faces should be forced to watch faces for another eleventy fucking years because what the fuck were they doing while this movie was being made
    michelle rodriguez tries her best to prove she's not a cunt but ultimately fails
    nerdy guy should have been a much better character
    blue girl's mom and dad were good
    does EVERY creature have a synapse cord thingie? that seems weird
    the last battle was not good enough by far
    cliche story etc but it wasn't THAT bad. it was bad but eh

    what else um
    kind of weird that humans can communicate with the YHWH but hey
    the sex scene wasn't that bad you babies
    does these creatures not have nipples at all?
    what happened to the REST of the avatars? there were like 30 at the start
    a few plot holes that I noticed while watching and I NEVER catch those, so that's bad

    why did the military give them so much time to pick up that 2nd unit thing they should have been on them like a minute after they escaped wtf
