Yep, all the time. I walked most of the time starting from kindergarten. One year my school was far enough that I had to bus, but even later on I just rode my bike until old enough to drive.

What is so special about the fast food workers where they all get to demand a $15 minimum wage, but no other jobs getting minimum wage can do the same? Either make the minimum wage $15 across the board at the federal and state level or just forget about it entirely.

But let's not all act like running a fryolator is some specialized skill and driving a forklift isn't.

Having worked in both fast food and in a warehouse, I found forklift a lot easier and less stressful, and it doesn't really take much skill, and it paid 50% more. IMO, the minimum should rise across the board (and here it is, thankfully). If that means that it's more economical to automate some of those jobs, so be it. Not all of them can be automated, and the duty that will inevitably get shunted to other employees for the things that automation can't take care of will more than justify the increased wage.

Labor is a commodity, and the people who supply that commodity are demanding more in return for it. Seems like basic capitalism to me.

A 10.0 earthquake would be unimaginably destructive and would likely trigger several other catastrophic events like tsunamis and volcanic eruptions.

Bilingual people randomly using foreign words when speaking with people who only speak English


That is a good one, probably one of the big instances of life imitating art - to this day I still hardly ever see people doing this.

Also, I went to a high school with about 5500 kids. The only people who had lockers were the physically disabled students... I never even saw a rotating combination lock until the military.

My highschool had ~930 kids, and even we mostly had 2 to a locker.

TopicCan you touch your toes without bending your knees?

I can reach well past my toes. On a device that is meant to measure that type of flexibility, I managed 43 cm. Toes are not the zero point, but apparently that is significantly above average for men. I can reach my wrists past my toes and palm the underside of my shoes, without flexing my feet up. I have proportionally short legs though, if I bend over I'm practically a table.

Don't forget fucking Dany flying to that field near High Garden during the battle and burning everyone alive and then coming back to Dragonstone within a day.

Either dragons are stupid fast, or Westoros is stupid small, but that doesn't make sense because King's Landing and Winterfell have entirely different climates.

That battle was near King's Landing at the Blackwater Rush.

TopicIf you played Borederlands 2, what was your favorite character to play as?
AlleRacing
07/24/17 11:16:52 AM
#52
Salvador was definitely my favourite character to play as. His ability scaled well and was practically always useful. He had ridiculous damage output and with it survivability. Other characters could edge him out in pure DPS, but his DPS was easy to build and maintain.

Krieg was my next favourite to play. He was also capable of hitting significant damage, but he required slightly more set up. He also had crazy survivability, so much so that when cooping and my 3 friends died on son of crawmerax, they just asked me to die so we could restart. I put away my grog nozzle and just stood in front of him, but my shield going off made it near impossible for him to kill me.

Maya was my third favourite. She has a lot of power and crowd control, and respectable damage when phaselock is up. Her biggest issue was that a lot of her skills depended on phaselock being up, and there were many enemies immune to being held by it, including every raid boss. That severely hurt her performance in those scenarios.

The other three I found not nearly as exciting. I was especially disappointed with Axton, given that Roland was my favourite from the first game. His turret just fell off in damage output too sharply at high level, only being useful for applying slag. At OP levels it regained some usefulness, continuing to scale somewhat, including nuke damage, but it wasn't really enough. It would have been nice if he had an ability to regenerate team ammo. Gaige, while still pretty strong with discord, falls into a similar boat as Axton. Deathtrap just falls off too much at high levels. She can still do great damage with high discord stack, but its annoying to have to build those every time I launch the game. Zer0 had a play style that just didn't gel with me. His damage output is ludicrous though, and I did manage some pretty fast kills with him.

All in all, I think the characters in The Pre-Sequel were better balanced and more fun to use.

Later on Gaige's bullets go literally everywhere. Like, her accuracy penalty is so harsh you're more likely to hit a foe via pointing in basically any direction but right at them. It's... freaking glorious!

You can also use a weapon with a fixed spread like heartbreaker or sand hawk to get around that.

I'm for the required notification of the father, I'm not for the requirement that he needs to agree on a disposal method insofar as that it could delay the procedure beyond the time frame in which it is allowed to be performed and therefore forfeit the right for it to be performed in the first place.

IMO, the decision should be counted as null if not settled in a timely manner and default to the mother's choice.
