What he found is fascinating: "Soccer" was a recognized term in Britain in the first half of the twentieth century, but it wasn't widely used until after World War II, when it was in vogue (and interchangeable with "football" and other phrases like "soccer football") for a couple decades, perhaps because of the influence of American troops stationed in Britain during the war and the allure of American culture in its aftermath. In the 1980s, however, Brits began rejecting the term, as soccer became a more popular sport in the United States.
In recent decades, "The penetration of the game into American culture, measured by the use of the name 'soccer,' has led to backlash against the use of the word in Britain, where it was once considered an innocuous alternative to the word 'football,'" Szymanski explains.
Heh, the stigmatization of "soccer" comes from a resentment of American hegemony, rather than an innate belief that "soccer" was a childish term used by Eton boys; that belief stems from the resentment, rather than the other way around

Being condescending is basically our number one priority in international relations
I'm mad. Can you spot the sentence that didn't occur in the following conversation with my brother that would explain my madness?
"Hey RMS, I need a big favour: My job is running a background check. Since you're at our parents' this weekend, can you bring me a recent bank statement? Thanks. Oh, and my girlfriend has given me to the end of June to move out of your house and in with her, just thought you should know."

Holy crap. I had two coffees, one of which was cold brew, about 4 hours ago and I'm still buzzing. I went for a walk, did some exercise and had a beer with dinner, so far no dice

did you ever SS hideout? i don't know if i'll ever be able to do that one. it honestly looks harder to me than Yotta
Hideout is p easy once you get used to differences in clinging onto walls.
IE for the first section you need to cling onto the walls holding up for precisely long enough for the dust trails to appear before you jump off. You only gain a little bit of height but it is crucial.

Perturbator - "I Am the Night"
other track titles will probably give you an idea what we are looking at here:
"Night Driving Avenger"
"Welcome to Nocturne City"
"Shadow Force '84"
etc etc

Well, it's not false, but it is definitely an understatement.

Not really just search for sinn sage or Ariel X and see what shows up. Then ejac away.
