My dad got this game for me when I was a kid.

After school one day I come home, and he’s playing it. He’s 10 levels ahead on another character. It was the only video game I’ve ever watched him play of his own volition.

I’m honestly impressed at the effort you put into this comment. It’ll be a while before I read through all these links, so I’m just gonna save this comment and come back to it occasionally.

And KAOS, the dairy man!

This. There is nothing more immersive in a story set in the past than old-timey measurements. I want my potions in drams, I want my house measured in paces, I want to know how many leagues the city is across. I want cubits and spans for construction and stones, pounds, and smelt for weights.

It makes the world more real, less sterile to have these human-centric measures.

Traditionally? An inch is three barley corns long.

Yes… Thank you British Empire, French Empire, and Spanish Empire for your contributions to the system.

-British: Mile, Foot, Inch, Yard

-Spanish: Dollar, from the Spanish Pieces of 8

-French: You know what you did

Ya’ll in this comment section are making things more confusing somehow.

Do correct me if I’m wrong, because I’ve just ripped these from other comments in this thread that have been disputed unclearly.

My fiance also can’t stop or they lose momentum, so I hand feed them snacks periodically throughout the day so they can keep going and not starve. Dino nuggies, carrot sticks with ranch, diagonally cut sandwich with the crust removed; the works.

He asked her to paint his house though.

Something something China owns Reddit, something something Trump pissed of China, something something oblique humor here.

Am I doing it right?

[This is a meta-commentary on why I left reddit, thank you for participating]

So, real question, where do you draw the ethical line? Are crickets or ants subject to this discussion? Like, is eating crickets supporting their genocide? Arguably, owning and using any kind of plastic material contributes to the depopulation of species world-wide, as does modern agriculture. Is eating corn or soybeans contributing to the genocide of insects or birds? Where is the line for you?

Have any of you checked out the reviews on their site? The one’s in Dutch?

Hilarious. Almost none of the reviews are about the phone itself, but the promotions surrounding it, whether its available in certain stores, and my favorite, the font on the case.

I guess the phone is so awesome they have to think of other stuff to complain about. I just want to know if the phone is good!

I can’t tell if you’ve ruined chilies for me, or if something else is happening.

Yup. Learned real quick never to tell my mom anything, and she’s angry that I’m not doing anything with my life. I am, she just doesn’t know about it lol.

Well dang! From what I can tell, you’re right. Now I wanna check out an Orthodox church xD

Wait… Orthodox is the oldest? The Catholic rhetoric is that they are the oldest denomination. I feel bamboozled!

I agree. That person is BONKERS.

I mean with some of the prostate exams I’ve had I’d almost assume as much.

Life eats life. I’m not going to try to convince a lion to not eat a gazelle, and I’m not going to try and convince a human not to eat the thing its been hunting and eating for 10 thousand years.

I agree that factory farming is terrible. If we are going to eat an animal, its best if we raise it and kill it ourself in the quickest and most painless way possible, to ensure happiness and health during its life and mitigate as much suffering. It also forces us to face the act of death itself, and hopefully be grateful of the animal for the meals it provides.

All things die. As someone who went through “dying”, I can say with some confidence that dying sucks, and you will suffer when you go through it. Whether its being shot, stabbed, strangled, poisoned, or dying of the complications of old age. You are going to suffer unless you’re doped to high heaven on morphine or something similar.

Are vegans going about using opioids to euthanize factory farmed cows in mass? No? Then I guess they’re going to suffer, and I’m not letting them suffer in vain.

THAT would be unethical.

what?
