Alright, I guess theyll just continue with the intifadas and rocket attacks for infinity. Oct. 7th didnt accomplish anything for them except inviting a brutal counterattack that probably set them back 100 years. Theyll keep doing this until theyre completely destroyed I guess, rather than sucking it up and taking a raw deal now that at least allows for the possibility of greatness and prosperity in the future.

There will be no lasting consequences for Israel on this. By this time next year nobody will be talking about it. Some protesters disrupted finals week at college or whatever but thats all that Palestinians are going to accomplish with their current tactics.

I agree, its a dumb saying/cause

Well Israel is not going anywhere, nobodys going to be able to le river to le sea them out of existence, so a two state solution is the only answer. But to my knowledge Palestinians reject that? So thats where were at. Just more meaningless violence and terrorist attacks for a completely lost cause. The cycle will continue forever until Palestinians realize that theyll have to take what they can get. Is it fair? Maybe not, but very few situations like this throughout all of history have been.

The ICC should issue an arrest warrant for Joe Biden

Id think this was a joke but CE is beyond crazy at this point so Im guessing youre actually serious, lmfao

The man. If the bear decides to attack me or chase me Im completely fucked and will die horribly. Even if the man has bad intentions, Id be able to fight back or at least potentially outrun him.

I guess the man potentially having a gun does give me pause, though.

Hell come back.

Biden being a sensible President as usual. Ready to cast my vote for him in November.

I know you said it makes sense for you right now to live there, but really, move out ASAP.... once you do, looking back you'll wonder how you ever lived like that and be much happier and more content.

Moving out honestly made me and my sister become friends, lol. We clashed all the time when we lived together but now we're super amiable because we don't have to put up the other being in our space 24/7.

This is why I dont bother perusing seasonal anime anymore. If its actually good Ill hear buzz about it. Otherwise Im just picking interesting looking stuff from the past few years.

Id rather just get shot than have acid splashed in my face, JFC

Some CEman once was visiting home, I think for Christmas. In the guest bedroom he heard his dad through the wall in the bathroom say "let's make some soup"

youre leaving out a pretty vital detail from this story, lmao

Hamas started this and continues to be responsible for the whole situation. Its their responsibility to accept a deal, they cant win against Israel. And if they refuse what happens next is all on them.

BA in Poli Sci and an MPA

Nobody cares that I have them, I dont really ever tell anybody.

I live in Southern California. Id say I see like one every ten visits or so.

Probably would be too insanely expensive and impractical at this point to build. It would be nice though.

yeah, you could be right on that.

Yeah you'll see some people bring up how dumb their parents and relatives are, etc.

When in reality they're probably just more knowledgeable/socially aware than their parents and don't necessarily have too much more raw intelligence.

Smallville posted...

i kinda agree with you. But no is easily winning in the poll

Most people don't want to believe it. But also you don't have to be "intelligent" to be successful. I'm more successful than some people in my life who are smarter than me.

Mostly, yes. Not completely.

Not complete without borderline illegal headlights that blind everyone else on the road

Them: "Israel shouldn't commit genocide."

You: "Oh so Hamas should get off free for committing a terror attack?"

I'm sure you'd calmly accept your fate if America got bombed into the stone age because terrorists from America killed people, right? Lament that the terrorists are responsible for killing you?

Well, if as an American my GOVERNMENT (not just random terrorists) decided to kill a bunch of people in a depraved degenerate terrorist attack and then promised to do it again at the next opportunity, I would probably have a bit of anger at said government when the people attacked counterattack and Im caught in the crossfire, yes.

moreso when my government deliberately puts me in harms way as part of their dumb plan

Not engaging in ethnic cleansing.

so you have no answer to the question. Or maybe the answer is just nothing should happen to them

Zero_Destroyer posted...

The good options that didn't involve instant escalation into murdering tens of thousands of civilians are clearly no longer on the table, so what's the point of this question, especially when Israel itself helped put Hamas into their position?

What wouldve been the good options?

Zero_Destroyer posted...

To be clear; yes, October 7th was bad. Destroying hospitals, universities, graveyards, gunning down people seeking food, intentionally sniping children, and bombing international aid workers to death is substantially worse. Deflecting to October 7th has less mileage every single day we stray farther from it if the response to October 7th is to just rampantly commit war crimes.

What do you think should happen to Hamas for what they did on Oct 7th?

Based dad. Unless he got it for himself lol.

It was for me, but he ended up playing a bit lol. He mostly played the Lion King game and I don't think he ever touched Sonic, though.

Lol ITT, everyone is a genius.

Yeah lmao, it's funny how everyone has 150 IQs on here.

You know how fucking crazy high that actually is? That's probably legit Einstein level.

I don't remember the day it came out, but I remember the day I got it. My dad came home with a Genesis and the game.

Seriously one of the most pathetic things I've read on this site, lmao

Fandom sucks and is a large part of the cancer killing the Internet.

Im probably just going to mostly lurk CE with the occasional super safe post. I very rarely got modded in the past and when I did, I mostly knew it was coming. However, who knows about now. Id like to be here to witness the final moments of CE in whatever form they might be in

I can read Japanese decently (have N1). Neither of those translations are really terrible or anything. The left is a little corny at times but nothing crazy. Then again Im far from a localization expert.

I meant potentially as in hes potentially gone

Whaaaaaat!? Cmon. This is crazy draconian.

There goes one of our more prominent and interesting board members (potentially).

It's not like the Japanese voices are authentic, either. They're overexaggerated to the point where people actually say that watching anime is actually a terrible way to learn Japanese.

Anime is actually fairly useful for learning Japanese and improving listening skills. Its still Japanese.

Ive been playing it. Its alright, not as good as Nioh or Nioh 2. Im getting a bit more into it though.

Its definitely personalized to her. Im gonna message her and if the conversation leads to it then i could give it to her. if not oh well its something i could use myself.

Throw it out or use it yourself. And like others said dont try talking to her. If she reaches out completely on her own, maybe reevaluate from there for a possible friendship but I would have zero expectations of her doing that. Just dont think about it.

returning or trashing the gift feels like wasted effort. If the gift is a little basic, just hold onto it for the next one. If it's a little personalized, I say give it to her with 0 expectations and as quickly as possible. Like, "pretend you're an UberEats driver" style hand off.

Or, just get it shipped for like $5. It's a bit of kindness and everyone can use that on their birthday.

Yeah, I definitely dont agree. If its too personalized to give to someone else (like your mom or sister or something) then just bite the bullet and trash it. Theres no non-weird way to give it to her at this point.

Ill go with no too. Just move on and dont talk to her unless she reaches out again. Give the present to another woman/friend in your life who itd be appropriate to give a gift to if you dont want it to go to waste.

Nope. Wouldnt do it unless asked and Ive never been asked.

It was always pretty mainstream. Easily one of the more well-known normie (for lack of a better term) gaming series. Like in the past even before the show I wouldnt be surprised at all if a random coworker had played the games. Whereas I would be surprised if for example they played the Tales of games or something.

Hersheys is fine. Its just another thing for snooty Europeans and snobby Internet nerds to complain about.

This kid is fundamentally broken in some way and shouldn't be out in society. Probably should be in some sort of supervised group home. If he's out he WILL hurt or kill someone else.

Lmao, what a whiny idiot.

"The most depressing thing was the 10/10 reviews....."

Lighting yourself on fire for anything Trump-related is beyond stupid

I have a Coke or Coke Zero every morning instead.

Id probably feel a little wistful knowing I now longer have access to a place Ive spent so much time in, but I dont think it would take long at all to get over it.

I was shitting copious amounts of blood, both dark and light red. Ended up being ulcerative colitis. Get it checked out, TC.

People always talk about basic girls but what about basic guys?

Im not knocking any of these things but in my experience they tend to like:

-Sports
-Smoking weed
-Popular multiplayer video games like CoD Warzone and Fortnite
-Comedy movies (like with Will Ferrell, Jonah Hill etc)
-Rap music
