| Topic | How is your Saturday going? |
| ThePieReborn 05/27/17 5:22:20 PM #8 | Not so good. Got not insignificant pain in my right hip (post spinal fusion, so it's typical) and just generally feeling lethargic/like crap. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 05/26/17 11:31:37 AM #59 | List of things that would've happened to me had I decked either of the two reporters who were getting up into my face and heckling me during my internship at the Unicameral: -At minimum slapped with a third degree assault charge -Senator I was interning for would have (rightfully) kicked my ass to the curb -Lost the academic credit for said internship -Some form of discipline from the university, probably probation Congratulations for having less self control than my heavy drinking 22 year old self and being rewarded for it. =| --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Have you ever wanted to work for the FBI? |
| ThePieReborn 05/24/17 10:34:43 PM #14 | RTruthLILJimmy posted... How does one end up with the FBI? Based on some conversations I've had with a few folks from the FBI offices in Omaha, accountants, people wise with computers, lawyers to a lesser extent, and ex-military/law enforcement from large cities tend to be common backgrounds. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Have you ever wanted to work for the FBI? |
| ThePieReborn 05/24/17 10:22:16 PM #4 | Guilty as charged on that one. Actually governed my undergrad years prior to looking toward law school. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Have you ever lost your balance while putting on socks or underwear?? |
| ThePieReborn 05/24/17 10:18:41 PM #8 | Yes. Strider102 posted... With that in mind does anyone else when they take off their underwear toss it up with their foot and try to catch it with your hand? Also yes. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | The antagonist of Far Cry 5 looks like the Tropico guy. |
| ThePieReborn 05/24/17 1:04:42 PM #34 | The "Ubisoft lol" bit wasn't a dig at quality. Moreso a dig that when Ubisoft finds a trait or system that works, they milk it for all it's worth by repeating/rehashing it over and over. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Ariana Grande releases statement that she feels broken and that she is so sorry |
| ThePieReborn 05/22/17 11:02:49 PM #12 | Future_Trunks posted... it's.. not her fault at all. but she must feel like she's partially responsible and that sucks As irrational as it is, the thought process of "If I didn't have a concert here and now, these people wouldn't have died" is one that would tend to entrench itself. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Why did that Ariana Grande concert bombing topic get closed? |

| ThePieReborn 05/22/17 3:43:50 PM #9 | Get a Lightning Longsword if you're specced for pyromancy. It's not ideal, but it'll do the business if you can get it up to +9. Majority of the things in the DLC just take a dump all over anything but physical and lightning damage. >_> --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Do any of you have a cat? |
| ThePieReborn 05/22/17 1:33:56 AM #20 | Only one right now, and she's nearing 5 years old. She's not as touchy-feely as the cats I had before (she's gotta be in the mood to clamber up into my lap/on my pillow and snuggle), but she's friendly and playful, if overly-jumpy. Does not like strangers at all. Doesn't even care for my brother/sister-in-law/niece, though I suspect that's because they have their dog's smell all over them. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Trump's ties to Saudi Arabia are far more concrete than his ties to Russia. |
| ThePieReborn 05/20/17 2:26:27 PM #6 | MorbidFaithless posted... Why is America Saud Arabia's bitch? The short answer is oil. The long answer is oil and they were a counterweight to the regional aspirations of Iran and Iraq in the latter half of the twentieth century while being relatively stable then and in the present day. Now how that latter half balances out the spread of Wahhabism and the resulting terrorist groups is beyond me. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Wasnt Eisenhower the first president with no political experience? |
| ThePieReborn 05/16/17 7:12:52 PM #5 | Feline_Heart posted... ThePieReborn posted...Given his proximity to heads of state and other political officials during WW2, I'd be hesitant to call it "no political experience." In the sense that if you followed them around and were exposed to hefty amounts of their work, you would gather a semblance of an idea of what is going on and be able to pick out patterns. Politics and medicine are not exactly comparable, however. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 05/16/17 7:01:44 PM #2 | Given his proximity to heads of state and other political officials during WW2, I'd be hesitant to call it "no political experience." His tenure as military governor of the US-occupied territory in Germany could also be applicable. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | The fighting genre takes more skill then any other video game genre |
| ThePieReborn 05/15/17 7:08:24 PM #71 | Zero_Destroyer posted... I'm asking your to provide examples of frame perfect sequences The only real applicable example here are jump roll outs/particular paths/jump maps as a whole via rocket/conc/pipe jumping. Quake and TFC specific, since TF2 is much more forgiving in that regard. Even then, it's not dynamic most of the time, so it's not even a real apt comparison. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | The fighting genre takes more skill then any other video game genre |
| ThePieReborn 05/15/17 7:04:06 PM #63 | Zero_Destroyer posted... Broseph_Stalin posted... Eh, this only really applies to particular rocket jump variations. Bunnyhopping is arguable, but that's more of a rhythmic dealie that's relatively forgiving. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | The fighting genre takes more skill then any other video game genre |
| ThePieReborn 05/15/17 6:30:13 PM #35 | I would say that older FPS (Quake and TFC come most prominently to mind) at least approaches fighting games in terms of skillcap. Would still give a fairly weighty nod towards fighters at the end of the day. Modern FPS is extremely limited in the number of variables at a given moment compared to days past, so that's a hearty lol in that regard. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

I remember back in high school, only one of the computers had a 1024 resolution, and me and everyone else was like, "Why is the mouse cursor so small?" I had to explain how resolution worked to my old man when we got our first HD monitor. Fun times. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Why do so many people defend Robert E. Lee? |
| ThePieReborn 05/15/17 11:39:46 AM #20 | Disregarding the Lost Cause schtick, Lee's command was apt during the war, but the notable failures at Antietam and Gettysburg significantly darken the legacy. The notion that a swift and decisive blow to the Union (and the morale of the people/top brass) was necessary was on point, but those two losses sealed the deal that the superior logistics of the Union would come out on top over the long haul. I do agree that the wild goose chase leading to his surrender brought only even more unnecessary bloodshed given the state of the war in both the east and west. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 05/13/17 8:14:04 PM #8 | I would recommend it. It's about as close to the feeling of being hunted down by an apex predator you can get short of actually being hunted down by an apex predator. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
