"There isn't a Republican party anymore" is a ludicrous thought. You really think all these conservatives are going to roll over and let Democrats actually win like that?

Conservative Christians are indoctrinated very deeply and reinforce that strongly in social settings. You can change perspectives over time, but they ain't gonna watch 70% of the population vote in a swarm of Democrats without screaming "fraud"

It's fucken hot out bro

Two (well, three) things later games improved on, for all their faults: slag and the map. 3 removed the former and vastly improved the latter, as well as the split screen menus being actually legible. Slag was really just a damage gate that felt obligatory on everything endgame, and the map became 3D and much easier to parse quickly.

I'd forgotten about those kinds of issues with following some quests, that was definitely irritating too

Still, I love BL2

The Mitsubishi ones are really popular and work well from what I know. But lots of folks make em - it's just a matter of getting them to make enough of them for 220VAC 50hz or whatever

Stupid sexy Danes. This'll show em for not wallowing in filth.

Note: many accounts from Native Americans circa 1500CE describe Europeans as being absolutely disgusting, stinky, pockmarked, dirty savages.

Yeah that's pretty much it

Idk man, there were real communities where folks knew each other back then. There's very little of that anymore because moderating those subs is a thankless full time job and the rest got massive. /r/CripplingAlcoholism is a good example - back around 2010 it was a close-knit group of drunks, by 2018 or so it was just a swamp.

/r/CenturyClub and the related subs were some of the best places on the internet back ~15 years ago. I deleted my old account that was in it ages ago and haven't bothered rejoining since I passed the threshold, but even what, 8 years ago when I did that it was already way different.

Game subreddits went way downhill, too.

The overall quality of the site is much worse than it used to be.

Oh they're fantastic. Tiny Tina's and Torgue's especially. Oh man, and the Mechromancer and Krieg!

BL2 is one of my all time favorite games, like many others here. It's nearly perfect.

That's what I'm saying. One day we'll look back in amazement that we let the public buy fireworks willy-nilly. Even the "it was good enough for me!" crowd of angry old-timers will have to go "Well, yeah, people blowed they hands off. And it bothered my vet'ren son and the neighbor's dogs somethin fierce. They're alright. It's prolly fer the best."

Now, I fully admit later today I will be running around in a country field with my friends shooting bottle rockets at each other. But we won't be bothering SOMEONE ELSE, and that's my thing.
