Will drop pants for Sony.
What happened? I've gotten back into the gym recently and it's made me feel better.
Unfortunately the gym isn't the cure for me. After thinking about it drinking over it and meditating I've realized I have only one thing to do to make everything better. I just need to find the courage to do it

Hard with Aim Assist Off if you actually like the gunplay and combat, if you are just doing some video game tourism, then Normal and Aim Assist on.

Can you be less cryptic. Don't do anything rash, bro.

Depends on whether or not you feel like using a controller.

neojub: I'm saying, I'm pretty sure you mean something that takes a lot of courage like joining a salsa dancing class or something. Something that's not easy, and makes you feel good about yourself. I just got into acting, and it's pretty fun. I mean, if courage is what you need. And if you need support too, breh breh, you know the BCT has you.

I’m a long-term games champion. I am constantly trying to get people into games, trying to change perceptions, trying to make the medium more accessible. Especially my female friends — many of whom grew up playing — as most people do these days, but don’t think of themselves as "into games" anymore.

The hard part is many people believe all games are infantile, sexist and feature gratuitous violence. The whole of games culture is presented as being insular, defensive, belligerent and even toxic. The bigger problem is that much of game culture lives up to that stereotype

Mac and cheese is a cure all for me, too.
 
Dark-skinned dudes are fine. Don't know what neojubei is talking about.

Dark skinned dudes have been running shit since they took it away from the light skinned dudes in the early 90s. Shit was a shame too, light skinned dudes were all the rage. I still don't know what happened exactly.

These dudes happened:

And triggered the cultural shift.

But don't worry, Drake's doing everything he can to swing things back in #TeamLiteBrite's favor.

The reason the Black Pearl has it’s name is because it burnt down. The original name of the ship carrying slaves was called the Wicked Wench. Jack Sparrow captained this ship during the time he worked with the East India Trading Co. After refusing to haul slaves, he was arrested and personally branded with a P by Lord Cutler Beckett. Then, as punishment, was chained to his own ship while it was lit aflame and left to die. However, as he was dying, he made a pact with Davy Jones to bring both himself and his ship back for thirteen years in exchange for 100 souls. In doing this, Davy Jones made it the fastest and most dangerous ship in existence (besides the Dutchman, of course). So the reason the Pearl is black is not because it carried slaves, but because Jack Sparrow gave his life to save them

Really want a PotC prequel.

What is this thing you need to find the courage to do?

I just saved a delivery driver from fighting a good old boy at the gas station. I'm walking back to my apartment from work and dude pulls into a gas station as the delivery driver is about to pull out. They exchange words and good old boy gets out of his car and punches the delivery driver. I'm walking for a little bit then stop and turn around and ice grill good old boy as I move towards good old boy's vehicle. At this point, the whole gas station perks up and everyone starts looking as good old boy realizing he ain't winning this one. Delivery driver drove away to his next destination.

I feel great about stopping some YT on YT, Yak on Yak, violence. I was about to get SMG'd (Stand My Grounded aka let me go through his phone and victim blame) but wasn't going out without a fight. It's 2015 and we need to treat good old boy vigilantes the proper way with some sodomy not that I condone such actions or partake in those activities.I feel great about stopping some YT on YT, Yak on Yak, violence.

I'm going to say the same thing about this that I say whenever Rashida Jones opens her mouth about music. Gurl, I don't care. Who your daddy is/was does not inform me about you and whatever authority you think you have to comment here.

"What would ________ think?" articles are the absolute worst, and this is no exception. In reality, you don't know what your daddy would have thought about what was going on today, and so you would have been better off establishing your own name and your own opinion.

Right. While I think there is some value in the perspective of close family and friends, in no way can they definitively speak for a long gone person.

man that porn star hate mail thread

that video took a turn I should have been prepared for, but wasn't

Okay, I'll bite: what's even special about Miles?

He's Spider-Man, he has an awesome costume, he's black, he can turn invisible, he's black, his uncle is master thief, he's black, his dad is
SHIELD
, he's black, his girlfriend is
in Hydra
, and his best friend Ganke.

Venom Blast, yo.

Why the hell do so many black heros have control over thunder/lightning anyway. Even miles has that venom shock thing. Who came up with this rule?
 
So as a character, nothing.

Black kid going through life, had to become a hero when his hero died even though he didn't want to be one at all. His mother is killed and he quits the hero business only to be pulled back in because he realized if he didn't many more people would suffer the same fate.

Basic comicbook stuff that pretty much can be attributed to 90% of superheroes even some of the bigger heroes. He hasn't been around long enough for writers to create a myriad of stories for that make him comparable to long standing heroes.

Yeah, that is a good point.

Miles actually had his powers before Peter died. Like a good black kid, his first thought was "nahhhhhhh".

Drunk, high off that tree, and replaying Mass Effect 3 for the hell of it.

This game gets a bad rap. It's not nearly as bad for the series as the stans claim it is.

It's cool. But the ending is what most have issue with, not the actual game. The combat is series best.

The show maintains a superposition of the two states for its entire run. That's kind of impressive in its own way.
