I think I've worked enough courage to override my awkwardness about promotion to make this OP a stealth promotion of Secret Santa. If you can afford it - and only if - it's a great forum project for reaching out to people and getting to know them. If you somehow have spare money during this time, you should sign up!





Furthermore, it is my opinion that Carthage must be destroyed.

    you know how it goes

    Now is your chance to atone.

    I don't trust myself to buy good gifts for people and I never know what to write in the cards.

    Why do you think I'm trying to get people to post wishlists?

    Because naming off the items would make for an excellent reoccurring segment on the upcoming season of the popular podcast Serial?

    My cousin knows a guy who's really good at knocking things down. When he's done there won't be a stone standing on top of another.

    So uh can I get in on this destroying Carthage thing?

    If I had the resources of the Palmyrene [chat] we could go back in time and do eet.

    These days there'd be too much of a stink about historical vandalism and speaking of Palmyra I thought of what ISIS is doing there and now I have a sad.

    Finished Sense8

    Will... Will... why you gotta be a dumbass and stand in the elevator looking out on the way down? I saw that coming and was v disappointed in you. Tough to remain angry at someone that cute though.

    Riley: I get it, you lost the baby. It's very sad. Not an excuse for your extended paralyzing idiocy though.

    Sun is awesome, as everyone said.

    Capheus started out great and continued to be great.

    I knew Wolfgang was a criminal but was not expecting the reveal that he is a stone cold killer.

    Kala: just marry the guy. He is handsome and charming and despite your last minute revelation that you have a useful skill, you really can't do better.

    Nomi: The hacker superpower thing is so overplayed but I guess every other show does it so why not Sense8. Congrats on not being useless after the rocky start.

    Lito is the best.

    The SS/CC thread already has 34 people signed up for giftgiving. That already seems like a fine turnout.

    I think you should put more effort into the Carthage thing. I'd be interested in laying waste to an elephant or three.

    I am so happy when I see a cracker, cheese, and meat platter. I think, "Oh goodly day, I will now spend the next 15 minutes making tiny sandwiches and eating them in 1-2 bites!"

    So small, so tasty, so convenient.

    Last year we had more than 45 participants.

    oh it looks like this is the proper chat. repoast then

    @tav @y2jake215

    jake and i played like 6-7 games of fifa the past couple days. he won the first like 7-0 and then won mostly like 2-0, 3-0 etc. i think my defense is getting better except giving up penalties- most of the games with more than one goal allowed were because i gave up penalties. i finally won the last game 1 nil.

    this game is hard : (

    i think one of my problems is i try cross-body touch passes and they just don't generate enough speed- lots of stolen passes

    plus it feels like whenever i jostle for the ball i lose- idk if there's some button i'm not hitting or i'm just getting unlucky with poor ball handlers or what

    fun game tho

    also corners are hard. trying to strike a balance between too close where the keeper catches or too far where you don't have a chance at an aerial goal. i haven't seen a corner-into-goal play yet.

    That is a Mauser C96. The first practical semi-automatic pistol. Well a cut away of one.

    21stCentury, you should add Radiskull to your skeleton avatar.

    Who is Radiskull?

    In the early 2000s (like, really early 2000s), there was a flash series on Shockwave.com called Radiskull and Devil Doll. It was pretty amateurish, but most flash stuff was at the time.

    Anyway, it was basically Radiskull, a huge skull with a punk hairdo and bandanna, and Devil Doll, basically a tiny red devil that was surprisingly expressive, doing some kind of....punk rap songs? There were 8 episodes, and then they stopped abruptly.

    The first couple episodes are pretty much Joe Sparks (the creator) fucking around, but in episode three there's an actual storyline that develops, and the songs start becoming more elaborate and really fun.

    Here's a video of all 8 episodes:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mndsd-jdyg

    It is one of my fondest teenage memories.

    Generally on a Luger, you'd only really cock it manually if you're shooting snap caps.
