I have nothing to contribute other than to say I went to that elementary school, making this hit bizarrely close to home.

If they had just gone with a health bar instead of the Super it would have been better. The fact that only 1 attack really matters to avoid makes the rest kind of pointless.

The super mechanic absolutely killed any fun to be had with the game. They should've copied the Smash formula wholesale and just owned it.

God-tier cookies

Sometimes, but it's far too much of a crapshoot. Done right they're some of the best around (and certainly many steps above the actual flagship sandwiches in quality), but you're just as likely to get cookies that are dusty, crunchy ash.

There's basically no reason to eat at Subway.

I fucking love "sales goals" at menial retail jobs like retail or grocery stores. Like, you're paying your employees minimum wage (or just about), the idea of commission is laughable, and they're sure as hell not salespeople. Exactly what "goals" should these employees be worrying about?

Customers come to the store, they get what they want, and they get out. The vast majority of them do not want to be badgered by employees, and will seek out assistance if needed.

I understand at a higher, more corporate level. "We want to sell x of y item, place it more prominently on shelves, run it in ads, etc." "We want to make x money this quarter." But acting like the hourly workers have any real influence over this -- and punishing them if sales goals aren't met -- is truly insane to me.

But businesses love numbers, no matter how draconian or meaningless. I'm just thankful I'm many years removed from retail.

Get a Dell XPS 15

My previous laptop was a Dell Studio XPS... 10, I believe. (Something like that.) It was good, has lasted to this day -- although it's on its last leg -- but from the outset it was a lot louder than I would have liked, even just doing something basic like browsing the internet. The fan kicked in for almost nothing. Not sure if this is a common problem, or if mine was just an exception that ran too hot, but it made me at least a bit wary of the brand moving forward.

If you have an XPS 15, have you had any similar problems with heat/noise?

What's the extent of your portability need?

I'd primarily be using my laptop at home, I have a work laptop which covers most portability needs. Of course my laptop would travel with me sometimes, but if it's on the larger side of the spectrum it wouldn't be an issue.

I'm looking to finally replace my decrepit dinosaur of a laptop from 2010, and haven't really followed the market so I don't know what's considered best these days.

Price isn't necessarily a factor, but I doubt I need anything high end. The only game I'm likely to play is Final Fantasy XI, which shouldn't tax modern hardware at all.

That being said, I would like to pick up a quality laptop, solid build, well designed, etc., that will comfortably last for a while. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Interviewer: So youre saying...
Peterson: I never said that...

Peterson is amazing in this interview. The interviewer keeps prodding him by misrepresenting his claims and dismissing his explanations, but he remains calm and so very focused and precise with his words. The whole exchange was great, but my favorite part was at 21:32-23:11 when he stumps her on her question of freedom of speech.

Didn't have time to watch the whole video, but skipped to this part. He COMPLETELY shut her down. It's honestly a bit embarrassing to watch.

9 is the last full season I watch, then I pick very scattered episodes from 10 - 13.

14 and beyond blurs together for me to the point that I'd have to use a list of "best post golden age Simpsons episodes" or something to pick any out... and I'm not sure I'd even bother.

Jolly Roger's Lagoon is a fantastic level, and straight up one of the best water levels in any video game. (An absurdly low bar I admit.)

Other than that, I agree. Banjo-Tooie is a 7/10 compared to Kazooie's 10/10, and level design plays a huge part in that.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily fromNarodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

This really causes me extreme chagrin, quite immensely indeed, when some wise guy posts some obviously satirical copypasta and can't help but "cringe" at it. Au contraire, it is perhaps the inevitable outcome of your inchoate minds (sub 140 iq, I'd wager a Drachma on it, cute) not being able to detect obvious sarcasm. Yes, I'm talking about the Rick and Morty "copypasta", you ingrates. "His personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance" This is pure twaddle. And yet it managed to fool you? Have you even read La Conquête du Pain, you over-inflated mediocrity? "The humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens." This should have given it away to anyone with half a properly-firing synapse in their brain (that's a concept in neuroscience, something which I understand better than many college professors, incidentally), but clearly these Untermenschen do not fall into the aforementioned Predicament (a reference to philosophy, something I have educated myself immensely in through my consumption of Rick and Morty). What is the Noumenon here, the referent to which we are all referring? Why, it is nothing more than an impersonation of an idiot, made by an idiot, for other idiots to read and smirk amongsteth themselves, thinking themselves clever; but little do they know, that when one comes into the arena with Knowledge as their Gladius (Latin for sword, feeble-minded ones) they can cut through such foolishness like a Plumbus through margarine. Clearly, you are not wise, for if you were, you would not have risked inflaming my wrath. Clearly, you are not knowledgeable, for if you were, you would have been aware of the utter inanity of discerning any connection between "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub" and , which I have read in the original Russian, naturally, which really helps one appreciate the playfulness of the masterful prose. Farewell, fools. Perhaps you should be back to your regularly scheduled brain-dead entertainment?
