Tiggum posted:No, it's just over-used and used in contexts where more formal language would be more appropriate. Like, every day on the news they're talking about how many "jabs" were administered today, and all the politicians and spokespeople telling you to "get your jab", etc. Politicians? Don't you guys call them  congresscritters instead of the proper term Member of the United States(pbuh) CongressTM?e: also I hope you're not so gauche as to use the term "chud" instead of Holder Of Strong Right-Wing Beliefs

gbut posted:I always assumed the back sheath to be hinged/connected only at the top, so that you can pull it out forward and down instead of having to do it upwards. If it helps back sheaths for swords were essentially not a thing, for European swords anyway. You'd never be able to draw it. I think we can all agree the real degenerates are the west coast of Scotland folk who say 'jag' not jab

Yes, and? Nobody in North America is an orc, either. My experience, even, as a service industry dude in Toulouse and points south, is that US-americans and canadians are vastly better tourists than the godawful UK, german, or chinese tourists, rona or no.

RatHat posted:“Believed in cancel culture”? The hell does that even mean. quote:Al-Qaeda militants were early adopters of cancel culture, of raging against that which gives offence. Again, this outlook appeared to come less from the external world of realpolitik, of interests and aims, and more from the internal world of feeling and sentiment. It was not surprising when al-Zawahiri, who appears to have been al-Qaeda’s chief No Platformer, celebrated the assault on the offices of Charlie Hebdo in 2015. Indeed, Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), of which al-Zawahiri was leader, claimed responsibility for the Charlie Hebdo attack. Al-Zawahiri made a statement shortly after the attack, describing it as payback for the blasphemers, as a just attack on ‘immoral Westerners who left their Christianity and assaulted the Prophet of Islam’. I have argued before that the two mass murderers who carried out the assault on Charlie Hebdo were essentially ‘the armed wing of political correctness’, seeking to punish, to cancel, those who hurt their feelings. This was a theme developed by al-Zawahiri himself in the years before the Charlie Hebdo massacre – the need to censor, with violence if necessary, those who seek to erase our identity.

(Chippy sauce here isnt wrong about the back sheaths though, IIRC some european mercenaries used to carry their greatswords on their back when travelling, but not if they were actually going to be in a fight, it was just a way of transporting a giant piece of metal if you didnt have access to a horse) SiKboy has a new favorite as of 00:07 on Sep 11, 2021 |

Oh poo poo, 2 pages since Olivia Munn poo poo? Oh boy, let’s go. She’s one of the few celebs I’ve had human interactions with, and seemed ok. But goddamn she’s the hardest working woman in sho biz from my perspective, as she hosted all the technical oscars and emmies I’ve been to. It stinks to support her since I love Shane Black’s work and she risked her career to call him out, but poo poo she was right. This also gets a bit personal, as my wife feels betrayed by him (goyum with Jewish wife) the way I did by Louis CK (gen-x dad that’s not a predator). (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I will say Shane Black’s body of work has gotten worse and worse as he’s gotten older. His great work was of course the movie with the Predator.
