Nope at no point have I said I ignore it. In fact quite the opposite as I'm opposed to that particular hard core conservative ideology. You can't ignore the role of Islam unless you have your head in the sand.

Now, I also do think Overdriven, although a fool, behaves way classier than Oberyn does, generally.

From the ninja I used to enjoy trampling with my horse I'll take that! 

I never got that impression.  I think he just wants to burn the idiots who want to bury their heads in the sand and deny that unbridled immigration is not the best thing ever.

Thing is I don't think me or Heskey have ever argued that unbridled immigration is a good idea. I'm all for more controls. It's the general all round hate of everything to do with a religion, with no consideration for the vastly differing people who practice it that we disagree with. Oberyn seems to put everyone associated with Islam under one umbrella and that's a very narrow field of view.

Funny how people's opinion evolve.
Basically all I heard before was that Boris fitted as MP but was ridiculous as mayor; then when he got to foreign secretary, basically your opinion Overdriven; then if he gets to PM I guess people are going to say that his wacky attitude was just right as foreign secretary, but not at all appropriate to be MP    the guy is so not PC that he is always considered as inappropriate at what hes doing at present, must be tough to keep it real in politics.

I always thought he was appropriate as mayor at the time. He was a great choice from the outset. He's almost like a walking stereotype, which for such a high profile job, with lots of people from other countries looking in is quite a good way to gain attention. It's not like he could do any real damage in that position either and actually he did quite a good job all round.

But Foreign Secretary? It's a far more serious position and requires diplomacy. Something I just can't see Boris managing. Who knows, he may prove me and many others wrong but I suspect there will be a string of embarrassing incidents that amount to more than him getting stuck on a zip wire!

She doesn't suck at all but you need other healers in your team in addition to Ana, and people actually need to heal with her and not play her as a shitty Widow.

I think that's the main problem. That's precisely how people are trying to play her. But if you need her and another healer it just seems like a waste of a character slot.

Ana kind of sucks. I don't know why people insist on picking her over other supports. I have yet to see anyone use her well.

I hate cyclists, they always make the least effort to go around me and just barely avoid me with a couple of cm. Motherfuckers theres an entire sidewalk of space, just slide over a meter or two.

This is now a venting thread.

I'm talking about cycling on the roads. I never cycle on pavements. Seeing as you're not supposed to anyhow.

Boris Johnson is fucking epic for all the wrong reasons. He tackles kids with full force in sports. He called all ISIS "literally wankers" after finding out about the immense amount of porn they watch. He is a completely bizarre choice for Foreign Minister and I am ready for the lols.

Boris Quotes

"My policy on cake is pro having it and pro eating it."

"My speaking style was criticised by no less an authority than Arnold Schwarzenegger. It was a low moment, my friends, to have my rhetorical skills denounced by a monosyllabic Austrian cyborg."

"Voting Tory will cause your wife to have bigger breasts and increase your chances of owning a BMW M3."

"I think I was once given cocaine but I sneezed so it didn't go up my nose. In fact, it may have been icing sugar."

 On Tony Blair "It is just flipping unbelievable. He is a mixture of Harry Houdini and a greased piglet. He is barely human in his elusiveness. Nailing Blair is like trying to pin jelly to a wall."

Mr Johnson, clearly unhappy at being ejected from the meeting early, labelled the assembly as “great supine protoplasmic invertebrate jellies”.

I loved Boris as mayor. He has the kind of wacky attitude that fit quite well with the job. But as foreign secretary? Pretty hilarious in its ridiculousness.

You don't understand how secure those nukes are. The worst they could do is harvest the nuclear material afaik.

Nah all you have to do is push the big red button on them that says 'Launch' and away you go.

I cycle to work and the same thing pisses me off. People on phones crossing the road not paying attention and they assume there's nothing coming because they can't hear an engine but don't bother looking.

If only there were more silent electric cars around.

-falls in love with woman
-gets cut for her
-leaves him because bs reasons
-can't even masterbates easily anymore
...
-explodes


It all makes sense now.

Convert to the most fucked up religion on the planet, whose countries are uniformly backwards fucking theocracies that produce NOTHING of worth except the extraction of natural resources that just happen to lie within their geographic borders, looking down on the US and calling it a place with a "sheer ammount of crap" wrong with it. If there was a hypothetical choice to make a group of people just vanish from the planet, the 300 or so million people in the US or the 1.3 billion muslims, I know which I'd pick. It's not even a choice, really. I'd settle for the scumfuckers to stay in their shitholes personally, instead of infecting places lightyears ahead of them in every single way.

Did I say I didn't think Muslim countries had problems? No.

Like I said. Irrelevant point. Good job Oberyn as always.

Just going full retard as usual.

Yup, and he left his christian (anglican?) religion to do it. Strangely enough he doesn't have to flee the country or hide in fear for his life or receive endless, very credible death threats or be deemed a "supressive" person and cut off by every other christian he has ever known, including his family. What do you think would happen if he suddenly divorced and left his newfound religion? Hmmm I wonder. But regressives have deemed muslims a protected, opressed class composed entirely of PoC, and in the progressive stack logic that makes them untouchable, so the apostates are left to fend on their own, if not outright ignored and vilified, for the benefit of the real protected class. The hypocrisy when it comes to the regressive criticism of "native" christianity goes without saying.

Ah yes you know everything about me. As far as I'm concerned your attitude and opinions are far more 'regressive' than anything else that's been said on here. Borderline full on Victorian colonial racism at it's finest.

I don't need to live in America to enjoy their entertainment lol

Edit: But while you're at it. There are some American stuff in my top ten lists but it ain't overwhelmingly dominant, as someone would expect. Music is almost exclusively of British origin (greatest rocks bands are from UK). Games, something that should be extremely strong point for USA, are mix of American, Japanese and European games. Movies, well Hollywood dominates in there because I'm not much of a film aficionado to watch European and Oriental cinematography. TV shows, a lot of stuff from UK actually.

Yeah music is largely the British thing. The biggest bands and solo artist tend to be from here for some reason. Not sure why that is either. London is also still considered the financial capital of the World.

The 2 things the US seems to do well are tech companies and Hollywood. Other than that there's not much that outweighs the sheer amount of crap that is wrong with it as a place in my opinion.

US made games tend to be on the bottom of my list now. There's  a lot of European studios, albeit smaller studios, and those from further afield that make much better products. Largely because they don't have the problem of the big publishers that studios seem to flock to in the US.

As for TV shows, I don't tend to watch too many bar the obvious like GoT and House of Cards. The comedies are horrendous, canned laughter and immature fart jokes for the most part.

Yeah down here where I live I've seen large groups of people walking around staring a their phones obviously playing it. Weekdays and weekends. I'm not all that fussed about it. I'd rather play the old games on an emulator. It also sucks if you are in the countryside miles away from a Gym, even my nearest one in a city is 20 mins walk away. But still, it's very interesting as a social phenomenon.
