    I dunno, I should probably give up on this because we basically have 0 in common, aside that we both go to the same university and have all our classes together. I can't even tell if she likes me or not, and I suspect she doesn't really like me as more than a casual acquaintance.

    Perhaps I could interest you in this clone of yourself.

    You forget that I don't like myself very much, Dank.

    I would never date a clone of myself.

    21st, you created Dankey Kang. You can do anything.

    But seriously, my best friend in college was a very shy girl. It's amazing how quickly they can go from being really quiet to making sounds when prompted. Just speak to her and try to get to know her better. If the conversation feels awkward and forced, then you can reassess. But do not, under any circumstances, give up on this girl if you've never attempted a proper conversation. That is an order.

    Man the the PA forums game of the year is a game I have never even heard of.

    I tried to read the wiki but there is a strange disconnect between the first paragraph and the rest that leave me uncertain of what the shit is actually going on.

    Like.. it starts off talking about a girl coming home and no one is there... but then it just starts talking about a girl going to school and shit.

    I don't get it.

    most modern rifle bullets are designed to tumble and fragment. this isn't just an AK-47 thing

    then again it's not something that people should really wring their hands about because most gun crime in the US is committed with handguns

    on the other hand most modern handgun bullets (hollow point) are designed to expand (diameter) on impact and then subsequently shred tissue so i dont know what to tell you

    Hide behind something very thick if they have a handgun. Serpentine away from the shooter if they have an assault weapon?

    Idk you're screwed either way.

    I attempted real conversations (and had a few) with her, actually.

    But i barely ever get to learn anything about her. She doesn't seem to talk about herself a lot.

    you can get those ones you boil and then fit to your mouth pretty cheap at, like, target

    The tumbling within the body is a side effect of the Spitzer shape. Which as Gooey points out is pretty much every rifle round around. And I want to point out that the inaccuracy of the AK-47 is widely overstated and amplified by the fact it tends to be used by poorly trained troops who seem to love to shoot from the hip. You won't hit anything shooting from the hip except by accident.

    And ELM, there has been a strong movement away from the use of automatic fire on the battlefield. Thus the focus on accuracy.

    i never feel this way about girls and stuff, but i did some shitty things to my little brother when we were kids

    like he used to follow me around everywhere when i was something like 10 and he was 4

    and i yelled at him in front of all my friends to go home because he was a baby and no one wanted to hang out with him

    until he cried and ran back home

    there are actually some really interesting websites on backyard ballistic testing if you're interested

    www.theboxotruth.com being one of them

    the problem with being a gun enthusiast is that you constantly run into myths about this and that

    things like "shoot a man with a .45 and they will stop dead but a 9mm and they will keep coming" and other such nonsense

    most of this is perpetuated by the "gun store commando"

    this is a fat guy that works at a gun store that was interested in the military but never made it/washed out for whatever reason, and likes to tell tall tales about the time they were with SEAL team six in Nicaragua or contracted by the CIA to take out a high value target in western Africa or some other such nonsense

    there is a gun store commando at every gun store, no exaggerating

    well it's not like the bullets are going sideways

    but in tests aginst rifles like the M16 or M4 it's not as accurate

    so, i've decided it's time to suck it up and buy a new car

    mine is getting to that age where i can spend a bunch of money and it'll last another 10 years or i can just buy a new one and not worry about it

    after about 20 mins of research i settled on a 2011 nissan rogue s

    the reviews look decent

    it's about $1500 over blue book, but it's also priced roughly the same at like 10 other dealerships in the area

    i'll go test drive it and then be like, "okay whatever i'm buying it," unless it's like that time a test drove a car and it started smoking right off the lot and i was like, dude, wtf is this shit?

    am i making a huge mistake? y/y

    Sounds like gone home

    The first girl and the second are sisters, the elder one has come home after being away for a year and nobody is there. The younger one is the one that's being refereed to when they talk about going to school (like any good sibling the elder girl is taking this moment of being alone in the house to rummage about and read her younger sisters diary, and generally have a good nose about in other peoples business)

    Personally, I did not care for it at all, but I am in an apparent minority.
