I am cool.
I mean if you're gonna go anywhere to sexually harass Chinese women, that seems like a good start.

I can see a mini-Boxer rebellion happening thanks to Chinagoons. Like, it wouldn't be a good thing in any way, but I would totally understand.

The expats in the China mock threads seem to either complain about how the Chinese are subhuman bug creatures with the intelligence of a turnip or brag about how much sex they have with them. Often both at the same time. :irony:

Context: roughly 20 pages of arguing about how the guns in Westworld can kill robots without harming humans.

FWIW simunitions aren't danger-free. Sure, if you get shot in the chest with one you won't die. But you'll get a big welt, and it wouldn't be fun. They don't just go "poof" in a cloud of smoke like what happened to Ed Harris in the first episode. They hurt more than paintballs IMO, and if you got shot in the eye with one or something you'd lose your eye.

Dude who pretended to be a high rank military officer (he was just a civilian contractor) built his own terrible house and then got himself a home inspector license so he could sign off his own house as legal.

i seem to remember a window installed at just the right height at the bottom of a staircase to be a very violent 3 stooges-esque punchline to anyone unfortunate enough to fall down that particular insulated staircase.

it's a house filled with ernst blofeld-style death traps, if SPECTRE was operating on trump's campaign budget.

My favorite Groverhaus detail I've seen was the approximately 8,000 electrical outlets per room. As in, he couldn't go 3 feet without installing another one. It's the sort of thing that sounds great on paper, but if you think for even a second about how it would work in practice (hint: it involves fire) it becomes funny as hell.

Explain the fire bit to me. Was the issue that he didn't have fuses or what?

There's a reason why sane home builders don't put a billion outlets in every room. Outlet wiring heats up.

Also it looked like hot poo poo from the outside, and that was before he melted his siding with a grill because it was garbage

Also he insulated the stairs "to dampen noise" which meant any fire in his labyrinth of outlets could set every floor ablaze

Also his foundation was so shoddy that it was one reason he became his own home inspector, because he knew it was good enough (he will probably have to move within this upcoming decade because his house will sink)

Oh, and his stairwell was a murder death trap that, if it hasn't already, will end with a child tripping down a flight of stairs and ending with their head rolling out the inches-long shards that used to be a window

Sure, if you use flimsy lamp cords I guess? I've seen places where a creatively patched section has simply burned off when the same dunce of a patcher later dangled 6300W worth of electric radiators off of it unattended in midwinter. But that's all serial load. I assume (against reason I'm sure) this would be coupled in parallel, so no current would actually go through the extra cabling to the unused sockets. I also assume he would jack in all the appliances into sockets by some means anyway, for example using external power strips, meaning those cables that take the brunt of the load would heat up exactly as much regardless of the number of mounted wall sockets. Am I thinking about this wrong? Am I thinking like grover?
