Can you tell me what that is in Escalades?

I refuse your silly German measuring mechanics.

The largest gun is what? 1600mm? So like 1/3 of an Escalade at once.

I thought it supplied the mad dog 20/20 at the boat party. Which is like a yacht party only it's at boats house.

Still no girls though.

I hadn't seen or even heard of mad dog in like 10 years. Goddamn that stuff is vile.

Bell bottoms had their moment again like 10-15 years ago. Hammer pants are due for theirs.

I'm confused too. I said that thing in reference to this post here:


So I don't know.

Groon hasn't been in the alliance since I started playing so I'm going with this being an old post.

Is Paco still in GSF? At least Xenuria never decided to poo poo up the forums this bad.

i do social research on racial and sexual minority issues and volunteer for lgbt organisations, but this has nothing to do with a space guild which can with a few keystrokes change a bcast target or fire a bigot

not sure what you are trying to win here by further engaging on this topic, there is no moral highground to be won with your argument. im pretty strictly a company man so its not like im going to gently caress off and write a drama post about it somewhere but lets call a spade a spade. either we give a poo poo and keystrokes will be made, or we dont and we should admit it.

You'd think a person who does research on racial issues would know that calling a spade a spade is a lovely metaphor, but here we are, calling a bullshit artist a shitposter.

Maybe he understands the difference between homographs, homonyms and synonyms. What next: trigger warnings on homophones? Is Mountain Dew anti-semitic in your world? Is "homophone" itself required to be excised from the language as a slur on the LGBTQQIAAP community?

The metaphor "calling a spade a spade" has been racist for a long rear end time now. Spade has been a term for a black person since the 1800s. Sorry you're too loving ignorant to know this. Here's an article to back me up incase you're too stupid to know this to begin with.

You all realize that racism is based on where you're from right? Cause that term is terrible where I am.

OK a new and good rule for the thread. There is to be no more discussion on racism. Use of racist terms or anything about it. There are racist people in the world and I feel sad for them, but I do not want to let it drag down a thread about space gaming.

If people in the alliance you are in act racist then I would not talk to them or be friends with them. I would consider them to be lost souls who need guidance with their views. However, this should not affect our posting about the game in this thread.

A good and welcome rule.

Don't be sad! Just become more cynical every time this happens. After a certain treshold of cynicism is breached, even this thread will look enjoyable again.

Don't try to turn his virginal mysticism of the game into bitterness. He's the one think that keeps this thread from turning into one massive hatefuck.
