At this point in Muskrat's meddling, it's reached the point of treason.
You don't negotiate with traitors. You don't reason with traitors. When all is said and done, you reach the point where the only thing that is done with traitors is to put them against the wall in front of a firing squad. If that's the side your "friend" wants to pick, it's on him.
Can I be nit-picky here for a second?
If you're genetically modifying an elephant for cold tolerance and fur growth, you're not "bring a mammoth back from extinction", you're creating a furry elephant. It may look somewhat like a mammoth, but genetically it's not a mammoth at all.
It's like saying you can genetically modify a homo-sapien to have a pronounced brow ridge and a hairier back and say that you've brought the neandertal back from extinction. No you haven't, you've just designed a human who looks different.
After setting up emulators for both the PS2 and PS1, I'm amazed at how little I actually turn on my xbox one S anymore.
Games from that generation just hit differently for me. Especially my favourites like Final Fantasy X and XII. It took me a while to get why I felt that way, but it's the combat systems in modern games have become to frenetic and button-mashy. How am I supposed to strategize what my team mates are doing at the speed that the combat now wants to take place at.
And that's not just with the Final Fantasy series. God of War both went down that "let's make combat as fast and frenetic as possible" route after the PS2 generation.
I'm also going to give an honourable mention on PS2 to the last Stalwart alternative to the EA NHL series; that being NHL 2K10. I really enjoyed the things that it did differently to EA Sports, like the ability to set two of your team-mates to hassle an opposing player. I wish 2K had kept it up. But it seems they gave up the NHL and EA gave up the NBA. Fair trade I guess.
As someone who grew up on the Prairies, I always found it a little weird that Co-ops were just a thing in the west.
Seriously...they send a percentage of what you spend with them back to you each year as a dividend....who wouldn't want a co-op?
The fact that there aren't near continuous attempts on his life every day is an embarrassment to the so-called "don't tread on me" attitude of the American people.
I've always just gone to my local Co-op. You still have to check specific products, but at least the general organization is as local as it can get.
I was raised on a parade of chili and soups packed and frozen in poor-man's tupperware (reused margarine and yogurt containers).
Turning the lights off and on is usually how you deal with a cranky misbehaving group of children.
So yeah. Let's do it just for the sake of the metaphor.
That Ozempic chewing orange twat has never physically jumped in his life, let's be honest.
I always assumed hate against him was like Canadian Fox News stuff.
It mostly is, yes. The Conservative Party leader is very much a Maple Maga fanboy, and (like all Conservatives before him) he appeals to the Prairie provinces; the oil workers, farmers, truckers, etc... Your basic Fox news crowd. His father was also very disliked by the same crowd, and so his last name itself triggers them like you wouldn't believe. (Think "Canadian Clintons")
But a large part of it (I initially thought), was also typical Canadian political trends. We tend to put the Liberals in power and then keep re-electing them long enough for them to inevitably become the villain (usually about a decade), and then over-correct and do the same thing with the Conservatives. Like clockwork, and it was coming up to about that time.
Now, though, with Trudeau stepping down, and the promise of a new leader...combined with the general hatred of Pierre Poppinfresh, the Liberals fortunes have turned around 180 degrees. So it's going to be an interesting federal election rather than the landslide that the Maple Maga fuckwits were expecting.
It was Benito Mussolini's headquarters in Rome during WW2
Sure would be a shame if four people 3D printed four parts of a DIY gun and smuggled them in seperately before assembling it in the bathroom using a stack of confidential documents as a workbench.
