TopicWhy are all the good ramen so damn spicy?
RaptorLC

Nongshim (Shin Ramyun) and Samyang (Buldak) are Korean ramen brands, which tend to be spicier than other countries. Samyang especially has some blisteringly hot flavors, up to their 3x spicy flavor. Samyang has some milder Buldak flavors that are less spicy than Shin, namely the carbonara and cheese flavors. The carbonara is particularly excellent, but still has a kick to it. Nongshim's Chapagetti is a black bean stew ramen with no spice, and is one of the best of the Korean ramen flavors.

Still, if you're looking for mild, it's probably best to avoid Korean ramen. Indonesia's Mi Goreng flavors tend to be really good, and there's some assorted udon bowls that are worth your while. If there's no Asian market nearby and you don't have much of a selection to go with aside from the major brands, I'd say get the premium ones (Maruchan Gold or Nissin Raoh) over the bottom shelf stuff.

That was because the entire World of Ruin segment was added in because they finished before schedule. And because of what the writers were doing at the time it is presumed that they were too busy to actually write much for the cast.

Yep. And they also didn't fix game-breaking bugs like Relm's sketch ability glitching out and potentially corrupting your save file and the vanish/doom thing. Later versions fix most of these, but you can't really make the WoR stuff any less obviously tacked on.

I can confidently state that this saying is utter bullshit. Granted, taking cover behind and under a row of seats at a movie theater to avoid being shot isn't exactly a foxhole, but it's pretty fucking close. And yeah, my only thoughts were what I could do to survive. There were no prayers or reaching out to an invisible higher power.

He shot someone, so a crowd chased him. He was an active shooter at that point.

Do we want good guys to tackle armed gunmen involved in a shooting or not.

You can't play this good guy with a gun narrative then throw it out the window when there's an active shooter who will claim they were a victim. These people saw a man shoot another man, chased after him to disarm the situation. He then shot other people.

That's actually a really good point. There was one of those fabled "good guys with a gun" at that event. It was Gaige Grosskreutz. He responded to the active shooter and had the shooter in his sights, then froze. Fair play, it should be really hard to take a human life, so I definitely can't fault him for being unable to do so. He came to that realization at the absolute worst possible time though, right after having announced himself as a threat to the active shooter who had already proven that he was very willing to end a human life.

Very political.

As much as people don't like trump, he can't possibly be "last." James Buchanan holds that distinct privilege. He literally did nothing or possibly even encouraged a civil war. You can argue trump tried to do that, but the fact is it didn't work and there wasn't an actual, all out, brother-vs-brother war between states during the trump administration.

Probably lower quartile but last is just politicking.

The Republican historians rated him... 41st out of 45. In short, everyone with even the barest clue of what they're talking about rank him among the worst all time.

And then there's you, trying to handwave the fact that he incited a literal terrorist attack against the country.
