It should have been a new IP though. With a proper banjo kazooie sequel made separately

Every weapon is an assault weapon
Earthbound isn't actually that good.

Not as ridiculous as banning them.

Do you actually mean "assault weapon" or assault rifle?

I considered that. Comedic help is a possibility.
America's infrastructure poses a bigger threat to itself than ISIS.
At this rate, the United States will probably be at least somewhat Orwellian by 2030. [sp2]yes, edgy. I know.[/sp2]
Like, if you went back 20 years and told people about things like the NSA, TSA, etc. you would have been laughed out of the room. No reason to doubt that something similar might happen in the future.
Breaking bad Versus game of thrones.
Breaking Bad is an intellegent piece of work that apeals to the old,young, savvy, ignorant, It apeals to both Americans and those outside of America and it speaks of race. Not everyone's going to like it, but at least a few people from every group can.
Game of thrones on the other hand is a watered down version of a book. Stripped of much of it's intellegent content and rammed full of random tits,random violence, anachronisms, sidequests, overused or dumb cliches and... so on and so forth.
Well, I suppose intellegence doesn't equal better. For all it's cheesiness, Game of thrones doesn't have scenes made purposely slow and uneventful. It does a bunch of things right. But breaking bad is just more... relevant? (Not to say that all fantasy is less relevant than more grounded fiction. But game of thrones just uses shock tactics to get us hooked.)
Assault weapons; I think it'd be nice if americans used em to fight tyranny rather than do a mass shooting. Ultimately, If you want to beat crime, you've got to do it culturally, not legally. The 'assault weapon to defend my home' is bullshit. The 'assault weapon because I'm a collector/like guns' or whatever is not.

Probably "assault rifle".
My unpopular opinion shall be that Congress should resolve not to pass any law containing the word "assault weapon" because it is a meaningless, constructed term only useful for confusing people.

Hell, NOBODY should use that word.
An "assault weapon ban" is like making a "street racing ban" that prohibits cars with spoilers and/or red paintjobs. You're banning something for no logical reason just on the basis that it looks like what the bad guys use in the movies.

I guess guns that are designed to kill multiple targets, so basically auto's. I just think that nobody should need one in their own home when they can have a pistol for self defence instead. Best leave them at a gun range.

Okay. Then you mean "assault rifle" which is heavily regulated anyway.
I don't have any incredibly strong opinions about assault rifles, your opinion is valid. I just don't like the term "assault weapon" because it is a constructed term to confuse people (and forgive me, it looks like you just walked into it).
Needles aren't that bad.
I get blood samples taken like almost every two months and it's not bad. It only gets annoying when an intern is handling the needle and fails to find the vein, so he/she just ends up repeatedly stabbing me for like five minutes.
I like getting shots and having blood taken. It's relaxing.

Probably because the life force is being drained out of your body.
On the subject of transgeneder...
Well,sometimes I think 'It would be great if I were a woman' Or 'it sucks being a man' or 'I bet sex with a vagina feels good'
Then I look at a pair of surgical scisors, and science, and I stop.
Like, If we got to the point where you could completely change genders (Y'know, able to impregnate/be impregnated. Feel the hormones of the other gender because you've got working testicles/ovaries) It'd be cool as fuck. As it stands, it's just genital mutilation and a few surgeries for the secondary characteristics. It's much harder to be on board with that.

My unpopular opinion on the matter is that the ideal is not the perfect sexual reassignment surgery, but a cure for the dysphoria itself.
I know, I know, we don't HAVE a cure, and to avoid suicide epidemics, the best we can do right now is support them and let them transition, but the world would be much better off if we could flip a switch and everyone would be A-OK with the genitals they were born with, and the social connotations.

That's a bit of a misrepresentation, it's not them idly wondering what it's like to be the other gender (Which tbh everyone probably does occasionally). But rather, a legit condition where they feel dysphoric about the body they were born into and how it doesn't fit with the one they actually feel like.

I'm pretty sure everyone has had thoughts about what it might be like to switch genders, but it goes farther then just curiosity. It's this deep internal wrongness that screams at you all day. Your chest feels too light and your shoulders feel disgustingly wide, and facial hair is as gross and uncomfortable as smearing honey on your face and letting it dry. Basically, everything male about your body makes you feel horrid all day.
The buildup to drops in music are the bane of musical existence. Even for songs that I like, the buildup parts are inherently generic sounding and sometimes even sound dissonant to the song itself. And this may just be me, but it always feels to me like the buildup is almost too (for the lack of a better word) "self-aware" in a way, like the producer is saying "hey everybody here comes the part that everybody likes, get READY!!!!!" I'm really getting tired of this trend

I also just hate the word "drop" too, but at least there's enough diversity to it that it can still sound good if done right

I'm actually curious on why you would say that. Care to elaborate?

Good. Cars with ridiculous spoilers or any kind of decals look stupid. Every time I see a Toyota 86 with one of those big Supra rear wings or any kind of rear wing I cry a little inside. Ruins what is otherwise a great car.
