[QUOTE=Fosax;47402016]I always see the "imagine how many more would have died if not for the bombs"
Yeah, soldiers, people that chose to be there even when faced with the possibility of death
The people killed on the nuclear blasts were civilians that had nothing to do with the war.[/QUOTE]
Japanese civilians killed themselves in the hundreds during the Pacific Campaign, just imagine how many would've died if we actually did invade.

not to mention, at least what's cited in the numbers for Downfall, at least 9 atomic bombs being dropped on them, plus the invasion.
doesn't look too pretty, though I hear those numbers have been fudged in recent years.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47400948]Same. They crank he bass up so loud you can't even hear the lyrics, just the BOOOOOOOOOM BOOM BOOM BOOOOOOOOOOM BOOM BOOM[/QUOTE]
There's a bar right down the street from my house and every day and night we have to hear their loud ass motorcycle engines blaring as they drive past. Annoying as fuck.
I had to go to jury duty today to do my part as an ~upstanding American citizen~
Total waste of time. We were separated into two groups, and I was at the end of the second. The court clerks only got through about 3/4 of the second group before gathering up all the potential jurors, telling them they'll be in touch, and then letting us go home.
At least I get a whopping [B]$11.38[/B] out of the ordeal.
[B]WORK WAS SO FUCKING AMAZING TODAY GUYS![/B]
About an hour into my shift, the fucking card reader for the register I already opened stopped working even after I tried to fix it, forcing me to open another register for card only, because I didn't have time to open it for cash.
I made some signs and [I]told everyone else[/I] who was working to only use that for credit or debit cards. An hour goes by, everything is fine, so I took my break. After I took my break, I learned that my coworker who works on floor [I]did the same exact thing when he opened the wrong register last week[/I], which was use CASH on the card only. [B]I even fucking told him like 5 times and had signs [/B]but somehow he wasn't paying attention or some shit, because he took cash on that register. Fuck.
Long story short, I had to re-open the register he was on to include cash too, which took forever to even be able to do because of customers buying shit. I finally had a break in customers, so I was somehow able to pay in on the register in like 15 minutes, which is the fastest I have ever done that shit, usually it takes 30 minutes.
And then closing the other register (we can only have one open on weekdays) was a complete fucking pain in the ass, because 1, I haven't closed in a month or so at least (I don't work night shifts, usually those guys close), and 2, I messed the calculations up, and 3, I kept messing my counts up, since I was basically trying not to have a panic attack all while doing this. Worst part was that [I][B]the dude who did it was no help at all, and instead of even doing his floor member work, was just goofing off in the office like the whole fucking time. [/B][/I]
It took me[I] 2 hours [/I]to fix everything again, by myself. [B]SERIOUSLY.[/B] It took me the rest of my shift plus an extra half hour UNPAID to write shit in the logbook and verify the sales from that register. I think I messed up on some of the closing papers too. FUCK. I'm just glad today was slower than usual, because the small amount of people were getting pissed at me and giving me glares for some reason while I was closing the other register. I just hope I don't get in trouble, because I called my manager and told her what happened.
Fuck I haven't been this mad at a coworker since my last job.
[I][B]TLDR: I have a massive headache because my fucking coworker didn't fucking listen to me about not using fucking cash on a fucking card only register. Fucking fuck.[/B][/I]

My boss tried to tell me yesterday to clean out the inside of the giant milling machines in the recently closed machine shop. I took ten seconds to look at it and pointed out the big fucking hazard sign saying "DO NOT ENTER INTO THE MACHINE." So what does he do? Wait until the next day and get a couple of the Mexican employees who don't read English to go inside it and clean it out. This place is going to fucking kill someone one day. He does shit like this all the time. He was riding the forklift today to put boxes away, standing on the blades like it was a fucking carnival ride. And then, later on, I ended up with a cut going up the length of my arm from moving an ancient dusty metal desk and he mocked me for wanting to disinfect it.
Fuck this shit.

They didn't even do it in a funny way, they suck.
Spent the day doing an assignment on quaternary environments from 12pm to 8pm I managed to write and reference 750 words out of 1500, I have to hand it up at 1pm tomorrow afternoon. So I'm gonna get up at 7 and work till then. Pretty normal stuff, but I spent the night at a comedy club with a mate and it was so awful, then I arrived half cut home and the door wouldn't open for me after 15 minutes. So I got mad. Eventually a housemate opened the door and I went to bed, but I'm sure both of them think I'm not right in the head now because I threw my keys at the door. That coupled with a long walk home in which I thought about how I'm an awful bitter bastard going nowhere made my evening quite bad. Thanks alcohol and shitty comedy you made my evening.
I went outside to get some medicine that I had my dad bring me, and we had 0 calls waiting - I get back inside less than a minute later and we're sitting at 20. What the hell happened?
Jesus goddamn christing fuck cockroaches are the worst thing ever.
I've spent an hour trying to gather up the courage to kill this fucking thing once I saw it in the bathtub but I don't know where he is neither do I care anymore. No one is home and I have a huge phobia of these cocksuckers.
I'll go without a shower for the night if I have to, fuck these things fuck them to hell why do they exist.
I don't know what to feel about this day... I feel I just make people's lives worse and I'm just some sad pathetic being that no one cares about. I gotta say today was the worst days I've had in my life and that's being on par when my brother fought with my other brother and kicking him out. I feel my mind is in a clusterfuck, being poisoned by taint. The best thing to do is just move on but my god does anyone even trust me anymore?
I think to myself if I could only rewind back in time like Life Is Strange. Shit would be much easier to bare and handle. I know feeling sorry for myself is a bad thing but I'm the go-to guy for fucking things up. Why does god hate me?

Maybe you should notify the safety inspector dudes, that shit is dangerous as fuck and illegal. I think you can send an anonymous tip. I know my work has posters of where to contact them, maybe see if yours does?
getting even more tired of my school... I got written up cause I had food on my bus to my class at another school. no warning. it was fine before, I used to bring food and share with others and have a fun time cause we have no break. now the bus driver went prison mode and barred us to assigned seats far from each other, and we can't bring food. I told her we don't have break, and we don't have lunch for another 2 hours, and she said it was now a rule. she said I was being sassy by simply saying in a MELLOW TONE that we don't have break and we get hungry. meanwhile she's sitting behind the wheel with nachos stuffing her face.
I just wanna transfer out so badly, I live 5 minutes from another high school, but I'm not in their school district...
For some reason, I don't like it when men have female avatars or women have male avatars.
Mom apparently gave T-Mobile the okay to straight-up shutdown our account because it was owned by my dad, and they're mailing us new sim cards or some shit I don't care about details.
What's fucking annoying is that now my phone is completely fucking useless for the next few days. Great.
Invited 4 friends over the course of a month.
None of them fucking showed up and just left me waiting. I'm so fed up with this crap.

I used to be scared of bugs and shit, but eventually something in my head switched from "fearful" to "the fucking foretold apocalypse of bugs."
See, in my house we have some ants because it seems like nobody but me gives much of a fuck about hygiene beyond brushing your teeth, and there were some on the bathroom counter when I walked in.
None of those fuckers survived.

i've been reading about some Native American tribes in my Anthro class this week, and some of these tribes had a concept of transgenderism and accepted those people for who they were (not all tribes obviously, but some did). like it makes me insanely mad when super religious people here in the US go on about shit like how being transgender is wrong, or the 'sanctity of marriage' (which is a load of BS too, considering marriage varied wildly culture to culture. Some cultures have men adopted multiple wives, others have women marrying brothers. There is no 'true' definition of marriage). Other cultures seem to have managed just fine in a non Western way in regards to some stuff like that. Not saying life for all those tribes was perfect (or is in many cases), but for some things they were better off than us.
I really need to get some models improved for a project that my group is working on, but honest to god, I don't know what to do about most of them or how I'll get to the point where they look decent considering that I'm not that much of an experienced modeler. This feels like half the reason why I keep putting it off.
So my brother still works for the mail, and ever since the management or somebody else KEEPS sending fucking texts to our house phone. Yesterday when I arrived home, I saw 7 missed calls originating from 'OUT OF RANGE' (for some reason our phone gives the ISP's automated system that as a name). Then not even after an hour, two arrive again.
Sometimes I bother listening it, and this terrible, monotone female voice saying 'groetjes Bernie' made me mad enough to yank the phone cord out of the modem.

Someone in my school used to try and change around the keys on all keyboards as much as he could so that they said "LONGDICK". This set a trend and it became really difficult to find a keyboard that hadn't been LONGDICKed.
Anyway, I'm mad cause I woke up with a cold and just generally feel shitty, and today my LDR GF is coming down to come out with me. She ain't gonna kiss me if I'm nearly dyin ughhh

Isn't there something similar in Hawaii or Tahiti? I don't remember but I recall something about the second born always being raised as girls.
When stories set in a post apocalyptic timeline or a hellish equivalent time line and people insist on neutering what would actually go down in that world. To me it really cheapens both the characters struggle and the setting itself since a lot of stories seem to be set in a 'safe' environment.
