[QUOTE=Captain;50275171]I didn't think Vape Nation was that funny. I mean, I had some chuckles here and there but overall I thought it was just okay.

[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;50271567]No it didn't[/QUOTE] it totally did part of what made RO1 magical was the fact that killing people was actually a challenge. The pixel hunting was kind of bullshit, but it made maneuvering fun and important, and turned FPS-honed players into more realistic everyday soldiers. RO2 was too deathmatchy. It was too easy to kill people, reloading was too fast, and you could solo tanks. It lost the magic.

Counter-Strike: Condition Zero was imo the best counter strike.

Civil War was just as bland and boring as most of all the other marvel movies

I hate summer. It's way too hot to do anything, people are out making stupid amount of noise partying/bbqing until 3-4 AM making it difficult to sleep and focus on work and the sun is only down for a few hours making stargazing difficult and annoying. Stupid sun allergy making my skin all red and itchy making it uncomfortable wearing short sleeve t-shirts and shorts. I can understand why people love the summer, but I just can't stand it. Autumn is by far my favourite season.

I feel like every season has its own charm, except for the part when spring is starting, and the snow is melting, and everything is cold and wet and annoying. Although summer is best. It might be because danish summers aren't unbearably hot, or because im still in school. But god damn if a nice summer evening, playing beerbowling in the backyard isn't the best thing ever.

fall is best season

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;50269435]Literally 100% of my friends who have gone to college regret doing it.[/QUOTE] Well clearly they didn't apply themselves or pursued degrees they actually didn't care about. Here's my anecdotal evidence: Literally 100% of my friends who have gone to college lead successful careers

Fall-to-Winter transition is the best cause you can keep piling on layers to keep warm, but summer you can only legally take off so much before it's public indecency. Summer is shit.

Even with the better footage out now, I'm not really interested in the new Doom.

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;50281746]Not to sound like a fedora tipping atheist, but I genuinely think religion has damaged the world more than it has added to it in a positive way. Most religions just feel like large cults to me and honestly, I can't imagine ever buying into one. When I was a kid I'd always look around for religions that made sense to me and believe me, I tried a shitload of them out. I couldn't find one that didn't either contradict itself or didn't just come off as a fairy tale. I'm not trying to be a dick here, but I genuinely cannot believe how many people are involved with it. I mean, believe what you want, I don't care, I just think it's absolutely ridiculous to dedicate your life towards something that nobody can prove exists. Let alone starting wars over it. To me it just comes off as very childish and pretty animalistic.[/QUOTE] Problem was most major world religions from the beginning of civilization originated as a means to explain what was, to men at the time, inexplicable or simply unknown to them. We know different, and know better now, because of how far scientific understanding of the world has progressed, but back then people didnt have that luxury. Also religion was a great tool for the monarchies of the day to use in controlling the masses, especially in making them toe the line of the priesthood and by extension the state, particularly if church and state were (almost always) hugely entwined together.

Religion isn't the problem as much as crazy is. But religion can be the drive to that, with an emphasis on "can"

Winter is better than summer in my opinion. I'd rather freeze my ass off than being soaked in sweat.

Spring and Autumn are the best seasons. Warm-ish days with cool nights, and a lot of transitional seasonal things (Flowers/Falling leaves, melting snow/frosts, etc.), adorable holidays involved. Summer's cool because it gets pretty hot also there's no school. Fuck winter.

Winter is best because no annoying insects to deal with.

We should actually do more to help refugees and immigrants and stop valuing money over humanity. like FFS these people are escaping things I cant even comprehend but we do nothing to help them because "dem terrists tho!". Because of our (in my opinion arguably) naive and protectionist mindset we are actually CREATING the terrorists and rapists and murderers that we say are within the groups of immigrants and refugees when really these are normal people with copious amounts of trauma and some mentally unhealthy because of the trauma. We should be helping with their trauma as best as we can. Yes I get that we dont want our governments wasting our tax money, I pay my taxes too. It's just unfair inhumane for us to treat other human beings this way. Like why the fuck is someone who is just as human, if not, more human than i am being treating like a pile of shit? thats just how i see it but then again even I'm not perfect and I dont have the opinion everyone agrees with because we all are different in how we see things. my head could just be in my ass for all we care though.

It's the same way with welfare and food stamps, people are like "well these people dont DESERVE them because I worked for my money and now im paying for their life in my taxes" which is sort of a silly outlook on that whole situation imo And when certain outlets propagate stories that are like "disgusting refugees rape and pillage white neighborhood" the divide grows further and becomes even more vitrolic [editline]8th May 2016[/editline] Also a lot of people think that our countries should focus on our own internal problems first before we take on large groups of immigrants but idk, I dont see why the two need to be mutually exclusive

[QUOTE=IrishBandit;50282241]I don't understand how people who walk around with all the world's information in their pocket subscribe to beliefs based on superstition.[/QUOTE] Not against religion as long it's not radical, but I think it mostly helps them to cope with feeling that their time here is very brief and their lives are actually pretty much meaningless on a larger scale. The belief that you will continue to exist in afterlife is very comforting, especially if the Deity might reward you with eternal pleasure just for revering him/her/it. It's just that for some, the very though of completely disappearing after death is very unsettling, which is why some choose (if not forced to or taught from childhood) to believe in some religion that promises an amazing way continue existing after death.

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;50282475]It honestly comes down to being a decent human being. Of course people are going to abuse the system, but that goes both ways. And honestly, we're not going bankrupt helping these people.[/QUOTE] Imagine if the majority of these people wouldn't be muslim. It's that most Europeans fear them or simply dislike them for variety of reasons. I thinks it's partly their fault too, seeing how many of them fail to integrate while immigrants from other cultural backgrounds often try to integrate very hard. Media can also be blamed. Crimes committed by muslims are often highly spotlighted, which naturally makes people to assume all of them are the same.

Pretty much anyone who is avidly against religion fails to realize that, had they been born into the right conditions, they would be religious too. It's not a matter of intelligence, oftentimes its upbringing, combined with a bunch of random genetic factors that determine your personality. It's not like they choose to believe in God, just like most atheists don't actively "choose" to not believe in religion. It's different for everyone, and as long as those people aren't hurting anyone as a direct result of their beliefs, then I say live and let live.
