| Topic | A cat walks up to you and meows |
| ThePieReborn 05/09/22 11:24:31 AM #7 | "Hey buddy" followed by attempted head pats and ear scritches. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Your favorite game where dismemberment is an important feature |
| ThePieReborn 05/09/22 10:09:14 AM #12 | As much as I want to say MGR, Dead Space is too near and dear to my heart to choose otherwise. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Do you have moral / ethical reasons why you wouldn't be able to be a juror? |
| ThePieReborn 05/07/22 8:07:27 PM #21 | No, but I would probably never get the opportunity, being an attorney and all. I'd most likely be too much of a risk for either party. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | You think America will lose marriage equality and inter racial marriage? |
| ThePieReborn 05/05/22 9:21:07 AM #112 | Given that the draft at issue takes several harsh, if not fatal, swings at substantive due process, then yeah, no protections of recent development are safe from the same treatment. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Anyone on CE play Iron Lung? It's an indie game by the guy who made Dusk. |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 4:39:37 PM #2 | I really hope the setting is fleshed out more in different games. The brief snippets are absolutely intriguing. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Are you ok with Roe v. Wade being struck down? |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 2:12:52 PM #218 | Sacrifice indicates an intent that is not present, so I'm not sure where this is coming from. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | So Alito's argument is that abortion is not ingrained in the nation's history? |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 1:25:44 PM #15 | The draft essentially cuts the legs out from under modern substantive due process/fundamental rights analysis. The ramifications are broad and (technical legal term) fucked up. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Cake is the most overrated thing in the world |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 12:26:03 PM #7 | Now pie, pie is the good stuff. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Are you ok with Roe v. Wade being struck down? |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 11:38:15 AM #145 | The manner in which the draft goes about doing so has far reaching implications that, unlike the simple reversal of Roe and Casey, do actually affect me as a man. So, no, assuming that this draft is indicative of the final published opinion, I am not okay with it. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Supreme Court to strike down Roe v. Wade, according to leaked draft opinion |
| ThePieReborn 05/03/22 8:53:38 AM #460 | Yeah, I want compensation for the brain cells lost from reading that the draft of an opinion from a conservative justice's chambers is a Democrat ploy. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | You are burning. You have time to save one organ, what one do you save? |
| ThePieReborn 05/02/22 3:15:10 PM #4 | Liver. It's been through enough suffering. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Any longtime FF fan need to get over themselves and play FFXIV if they haven't |
| ThePieReborn 05/02/22 12:12:58 PM #41 | My sentiments were similar to @SpiritSephiroth 's, although I do acknowledge there were some awkward drags and emotional whiplashes in the story telling (looking at you, start of Act 2). I basically binged Shadowbringers into Endwalker, so it's difficult for me to separate the two stories. Both really resonated with me at a variety of levels, so I can't really say which I liked more. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Republicans going full 50 gay panic. |
| ThePieReborn 04/29/22 8:20:00 PM #13 | Mr_Mushroom posted... how come they're always bald.Don't drag my chrome dome into this. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Explain to me why Biden can send tens of billions in foreign aid but can't |
| ThePieReborn 04/28/22 11:38:28 AM #4 | Because that money was earmarked by Congress for foreign aid. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Did this man invoke his right to an attorney? |
| ThePieReborn 04/28/22 9:11:34 AM #5 | Even with the usual pedantry involved in parsing whether a suspect waived his Miranda rights in mind, that decision is a load of hoopty ass bullshit. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Its crazy how Thomas Jefferson is so romanticized but hes actually trash |
| ThePieReborn 04/25/22 8:25:21 PM #10 | If he's so smart, how come he's dead? --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Elon officially bought Twitter |
| ThePieReborn 04/25/22 3:09:02 PM #18 | Think of what this amount of money could have done for people at large in lieu of massaging a fragile ego. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Why was the Resident Evil 3 remake so poorly received? |
| ThePieReborn 04/25/22 1:52:09 PM #4 | I think it was more of a consequence of rushing to cash in on RE2make's success. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Deep Rock Galactic is the opposite of the "live-service" model. |
| ThePieReborn 04/25/22 1:47:35 PM #4 | My only complaint is the overclock progression system being as subject to chance as it is. They aren't necessary to have, but it was more than a little frustrating that the overclock I wanted most was the literal last one I received because RNGesus hates me. Everything else is fantastic, and I've put 700 hours into the game. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | do you get headaches/migraines multiple times a week? |
| ThePieReborn 04/25/22 8:45:22 AM #11 | I occasionally get severe headaches that make me dizzy and really photosensitive. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Is 9am on a sunny Sunday too early to cut grass? |
| ThePieReborn 04/24/22 11:08:51 AM #14 | Nah, once it starts getting warm and humid, I'm out there mowing by 10 at the absolute latest. I ain't going out there in the afternoon. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Florida Senate passes bill stripping Disney's special self-governing status |
| ThePieReborn 04/20/22 7:28:25 PM #17 | Questionmarktarius posted... This could arguably benefit Disney, as they're essentially the entire service infrastructure for several nearby townsIt certainly raises questions as to how far ahead the powers that be in the FL legislature thought. Spite doesn't do much heavy lifting in the long haul. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Did they really "force" you to say the Pledge of Allegiance in school? |
| ThePieReborn 04/20/22 11:20:49 AM #9 | I got in trouble once for not saying it in grade school. I continued to be stubborn about it, and they gave up on it. The pledge stopped being a thing in junior high. I didn't learn about the pertinent case law on the matter until much later. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Games where banger music enhances climatic moments |
| ThePieReborn 04/20/22 11:16:31 AM #28 | The moment the Shadowbringers theme dropped at the end of the expansion was genuinely one of the most hype moments in my recent memory. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| Topic | Interested in takes on this tweet on game walkthroughs over the years. |
| ThePieReborn 04/08/22 2:51:31 PM #6 | That right side snippet is a writing abomination. The left is lacking that personal touch I appreciated in the good ol' GameFAQs walkthroughs (I'm quite fond of VMerken's No Merchant RE4 guides for his bits of commentary), but is serviceable. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | Elden Ring General #7 |
| ThePieReborn 04/08/22 12:34:41 PM #355 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... Finally beat malenia. Glad that's behind me. Used freeze buff on my sword in phase two and just wailed on her hoping to keep her stunned.Not necessarily directed at you, but if folks would be interested in some of the observations I've made in the Malenia fight (I spent at least 20 hours over a few days poking and prodding her to test how I could beat her without summons/certain Ashes of War/knockdowns, given that I am not good enough/inclined to do the strategies that the hitless people do), I'd be happy to share things that made it more reliable. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

For the sake of argument, what was their reason for wanting to ban IVF and treatment for ectopic pregnancies?If I remember Senator Morfeld's Twitter thread, it was a case of imprecise wording/sloppy definitions, unintentional or otherwise. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
| Topic | The Right Wing is becoming so cult like that articles are being written about it |
| ThePieReborn 04/07/22 5:47:07 AM #2 | Reminder that these people prostrate themselves before a literal incarnation of the seven deadly sins who would sell (and by my reckoning, has sold) them up the river in a heartbeat. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

Can someone convince me, or give me a good reason to diversify my stats?There's a sacred seal for incantations that scales with strength and faith, and the faith requirement I believe is 10. Might be helpful for heals or some of the incantations it boosts. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 04/06/22 11:57:15 AM #266 | Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... I just need to get this out... but fuck Malenia. I don't know what to do. I have tried maybe 40 times.If it's any consolation, it ain't just you. I've spent waaaaay too much time over the last few days to try and understand what makes her tick, since I am not good enough to reliably dodge Waterfowl Dance when up close to her. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

| ThePieReborn 04/06/22 10:51:49 AM #6 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] He would have to get pass the character and fitness review. You have to disclose any discipline and the underlying reasons for said discipline in the admission process.

| Topic | Armchair lawyers? What would the charge be if someone shot a corpse? |
| ThePieReborn 04/05/22 12:13:46 PM #8 | Attempted murder. Factual impossibility is (in the US) not a defense to criminal charges because, as you said, the criminal intent is present. Factual impossibility is distinct from legal impossibility, which is a defense to criminal charges. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |
