Spewing insults, pissing off all your neighbors, betraying your allies, backing out of treaties and accords, and generally screwing over the global environment?

lol, imagine paying ten bucks to rush in and breathlessly defend the ghoulish gig economy while sounding less believable than an AI chatbot from 2002.

I didn't realize SA was important enough to get weird corporate bot accounts.

I'm sure you do know people like that, and didn't ask what sorts of sick factors encouraged lost connections. It's almost like they'd be people better served by common pedestrian square areas they could chill in instead of living in overtly atomized suburbs where any sort-of gathering mandates car travel over distances that used to take days.

What are you, some kind of socialist?

Seems rather dismissive and disingenuous to accuse someone of shilling a company just because they said an opinion you didn't like. 2nd amendment never condoned the idea of people driving Uber to socialize, only that people justify their choices for that particular reason.

Anybody you see on the street could have eaten a brick of semtex and it's just a question of time before they decide to blow up. That's why you should never leave your home. Unless they managed to fill your walls with Semtex as well.

I'm trying to imagine getting the semtex into a welded metal frame. What do you do after, weld it back up? Duct tape? Why not just put explosives and, like, a few handfuls of nails in a saddle bag.

The IRA did use bike bombs, but only in the sense of "put a bomb in a bike basket and leave it". So we may as well ban vans and lorries for a couple of weeks too.

Not just suggested, when you make a Twitter account nowadays it just assigns you a firstnamebunchofnumbers handle with no option to immediately choose your own

You can change your handle afterwards but you have to go out of your way to do that

you can also use a metal plate to direct the force of the explosion directly through a bulletproof car, chop off a dude's legs, and have him bleed out before help arrives

Back in 2016, Thailand had a two-week period of mourning after their king died. A lot the foreigners and farang living there (read : white people) were pissed because they couldn't go to Patpong and drink their weight in alcohol or watch ping pong shows.

quote:

The bicycle had been consistently parked sans explosive in the same location along Herrhausen's route for an extended period of time before the assassination, and it was therefore ignored by Herrhausen's security. The bomb was detonated when Herrhausen's car interrupted a beam of infrared light as it passed the bicycle. The bomb targeted the most vulnerable area of Herrhausen's car – the door where he was sitting – and required split-second timing to overcome the car's special armour plating. The bomb utilized a Misznay–Schardin mechanism. A copper plate, placed between the explosive and the target, was deformed and projected by the force of the explosion. The detonation resulted in a mass of copper being projected toward the car at a speed of nearly two kilometers per second, efficiently penetrating the armoured Mercedes.
