2019. New York is in ruins. The global economy is spiralling. Cyborgs rule over poisoned wastes.

The only time that's left is
FUN TIME

I worked in a game shop for a while about a decade ago and teenagers would come in and talk about how young they were when the first Halo came out, in the same tones that I used to talk about NES games when I was 15. And then it's been been 10 years since that. Good god my back

Halo: CE is old enough to drink in sane countries.

People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.

I can't remember either. But I remember there was a Skyrim image that made me think of an old Eddie Grant song. Good stuff

I got drunk for free at a bar in manhattan with dust covered survivors stumbling in occasionally. Then I was laid off for a while which was a big buzzkill.

We threw a hastily-assembled party that night because there appeared, to us, to be no other possible reaction.

The theme song was Twisted Sister "[Afghanistan's] Not Gonna Take It Anymore".

I don't regret anything.

I mean it might have been the worst thing that happened to you, and that's what matters.

It appears that the elephant is highly sensitive to the effects of LSD - a finding which may prove to be valuable in elephant-control work in Africa.

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.
