  1. I can't wait to see someones epic match video followed by a Play of the game type where Lee is playing an Air trumpet.
  2. Thats awesome! I have been wanting to learn the Bees mod for a while now
  3. OMG you have to work that into a video somehow.
  4. That attitude might work in the UK, but not here. Here that shit is hateful and racist If it wasn't hateful and racist then dumb fucks wouldn't use it as a hateful racist term when talking about black people. If you need examples take a look at how Racists talked about Barack Obama. If monkey was an okay term then racists would have used something else. I guarantee you that here in this country in reference to african americans, Monkey, Ape, Jigaboo, Nigger, etc are all the same Even Wikipedia lists it as an Ethnic slur: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs_by_ethnicity (Just a small list of slurs I hear on a regular basis here) Ape (U.S.) a black person.[10] Coon (U.S. & U.K) a black person. Possibly from Portuguese barracoos, a building constructed to hold slaves for sale. (1837).[16] Monkey a person of black African descent.[24] See also Macaca (slur). It also gave rise to the racist "monkey chants" in sports. Jigaboo, jiggabo, jijjiboo, zigabo, jig, jigg, jiggy, jigga (U.S. & UK) a black person (JB) with stereotypical black features (dark skin, wide nose, etc.) Used to refer to mannerisms that resemble dancing. Jungle bunny (US and UK) a black person.[23] Mammy Domestic servant of black African descent, generally good-natured, often overweight, and loud.[25] Nigger / nigra / nigga / niggah / nigguh (U.S., UK) An offensive term for a black person. From the word negro which means the color black in numerous languages. Diminutive appellations include "Nigg" and "Nigz". Over time, the terms "Nigga" and "Niggaz" (plural) have come to be frequently used between some African-Americans without the negative associations of "Nigger". ------------- Since we segue'd over to political correctness, I will say this. There isnt' anything wrong with political correctness, the problem is people want to be outraged all the time. So its just one more thing to lash out at for people and to keep the public angry. If you are not an asshole and you don't speak like an asshole, then honestly I can't see how the term political correctness would have any impact on your day. Unless you just want to be pissed off about something, then sure go nuts.
  5. Yea, I saw that yesterday and had to laugh at just how dumb of a statement it was. Dude should lose his channel, but he won't because money
  6. How are the bees working out? I have a bunch of winter bee's in my fort
  7. Next time you fucks get together, get lee drunk and instead of putting him on the leather couch, someone get him to dance and record it. Then we just need Dave in his butterfly wings
  8. Honestly, that doesn't appeal to me at all. That sounds worse than raiding in Vanilla WoW. EVE totally handled it better. 1 person per ship.
  9. The problem, as I see it through my wife (She works for a marketing firm), is that everyone that designs this crap wants to be seen as progressive and above all this. The problem is that they never hire cynical assholes, like us, to keep them grounded in reality.

    PS4 Headsets

    Earbuds from my Galaxy s7 are great, but I also have the Sony Gold headset, which works fantastic. For PC gaming I have a pair of studio headphones, and a pair of Logitech bluetooth ones if I need to actually speak to others, which isn't that often
  13. I hope NPC's are cheap. I always felt that that was one thing EVE got right. You didn't need to worry about Crew at all, if you want to fly a Carrier, then go nuts, if you want a small frigate, then do that. You just need the training, and then you are good to go.
  14. I agree that is good. However marketing professionals need to, otherwise shit like this happens. Talk about dumb. They could have gone with a hundred other combo's but they went with monkeys
  15. Watch them then Via the FG App
  16. Not really like Taken Via the FG App
  17. Sorry man, I have zero idea about mac's
  18. Just watched this Really fun movie, serious Jackie Chan is much better than comedy action Jackie Chan
  19. Looks like someone spilled rabbit food all up in your dish man. Add some steak or something! (looks good minus the onions)
  20. This might be the best movie I have seen in several years.
  21. Not a fan of Salon.com typically, but I thought this op-ed was solid. https://www.salon.com/2018/01/06/swatting-didnt-kill-a-man-police-did/ “Swatting” didn’t kill a man, police did Police accountability needs to be a part of the conversation in the shooting of an innocent man after a prank call Andrew Finch, a 28-year-old father of two, was shot and killed after walking out of his front door. The police officer who fired the weapon was part of a SWAT team called out to what they believed was a violent situation that involved a shooting and kidnapping. It turns out the emergency call to authorities was just a hoax, and Finch an innocent victim. The story has been covered widely since it happened on Dec. 28 in Wichita, Kansas. The suspected prankster has been arrested, his criminal background repeatedly cited, and one headline after another has branded “swatting” as a deadly prank. “Swatting” is when someone calls emergency services anonymously to report a fake situation with the intention of getting a SWAT team or large police presence to respond to the address given. But is it the “swatting” that’s deadly, or the police officer who pulled the trigger? “There’s a reason why swatting is such an effective tactic,” said Kade Crockford from the ACLU of Massachusetts in an interview last week for “Salon Now.” “It’s because police departments across the country have largely, in the dark, militarized to the extent that they are really hair-trigger ready to be deployed by a malicious actor like this in a prank that unfortunately, in Kansas, ended in someone’s death." SWAT teams are primarily used in the war on drugs, often in lower income and minority communities. An ACLU study from 2014 found that 80 percent of the raids they analyzed were carried out to execute a search warrant. The allegedly violent incident that police were responding to and the amount of media attention paid to the raid in Kansas makes it an outlier. “This is obviously a very highly publicized SWAT raid that ended very badly. SWAT raids end badly all the time in the United States,” said Crockford. Watch the full interview with Crockford in the video below to hear more about the ACLU's findings The government doesn’t keep across-the-board statistics on SWAT raids, but a New York Times investigation found that at least 81 civilians and 13 law enforcement officers died in raids of this kind from 2010 through 2016, with many others maimed or wounded. “We really have to look at police department policies and procedures with respect to what happens after those SWAT teams are deployed,” said Crockford. “We have to ask, as a society, what are we doing or not doing at a systemic level that enables these kinds of mistakes to take place.” Despite a renewed national focus on excessive police force, thanks in large part to the Black Lives Matter movement, courts have shown that the law usually sides with the officers involved if they believed their lives were in danger. Radley Balko has written extensively about police militarization and no-knock raids. In his latest article at the Washington Post about the Kansas incident, he wrote about the conditioning of police to believe they are increasingly under attack, despite statistics showing the opposite to be true. “It puts lives at unnecessary risk. It increases the chances that a police officer will see an innocent gesture as a furtive one,” wrote Balko. As much as “swatting” is a waste of public resources and an atrocious prank that deserves attention, it’s irresponsible and disingenuous to leave police accountabilityout of the conversation about the case in Kansas.
  22. yes, but that isn't the case in Vanilla MC, you have to use Shulker boxes then.
  23. Back when I was still a member of the NRA, one of the things they always pointed out was that if you get sued for shooting someone in self defense, you need to aim to kill as the amount you would pay out is lower than if you were to injure them and permanently disable them. I was a pretty hardcore Republican so it made sense to me at the time. Sadly it still makes sense to me
  24. I got the name of the blocks and the trees confused, sorry. https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Purpur_Block Those are the blocks https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Chorus_Plant that is the tree. Sorry about that
