If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.

Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

...when they say "3-6 months experience" do they mean "no more than 6 months"?

There is about 100 unit conversion problems in my chemistry textbook.

I solemnly swear not to use imperial units anymore to save some tortured souls.

Just made a comment on an aunt's (not assault!aunt) Facebook status explaining why Pearl Harbor got us into World War II. Not sure what to blame her ignorance on: the American education system, or her not caring until she watched Pearl Harbor. I'm gonna guess a mix of both.

My actual random thought: My dad is watching The Punisher and not endlessly complaining about how "silly" or "unrealistic", etc it is. I am very surprised. He complains about everything. The concept of "willing suspension of disbelief" doesn't exist for him.

In first grade we were taught that you start with cm rather than m. Should've been the other way around.

The person who came up with Logical Fallacies was probably just frustrated that they could not present a comeback when they were faced said arguments, so, they decided to turn said arguments into fallacies, now, the people who present said fallacies are wrong and then, he/she didn't have to cope with the frustration of not having a good comeback at those arguments.

I'm having trouble deciding what type of pistol to get for my space cowboy.

It's between hand cannons, stub revolvers and laspistols.

Is the last one short for laser pistols?

Interesting.

Your reasons?

Because it's a laser pistol.

And everything is better with lasers.

Because lasers.

Seriously, though, lacking further context, I don't have much to go on besides the fact that it's lasers.

The red ones go faster. And there is never enough dakka.

Okay, here's the thing.

Lasweapons are commonly called flashlights by the fans.

They're pretty much considered absolutely worthless.

But there's the Mark IV Command Laspistol.

It has great range, not too shabby damage and the Accurate and Reliable special rules.

I think I'll take a pair of those, if the GM will let me.

I'll also ask if I can have them as Best Craftsmanship.

Use WW 2-era revolvers.

Well, if I take stub revolvers, it's basically the same.

It's always funny when people look at indulgence and say "Oh how civilization has fallen!"

And by funny I mean annoying. Those people always ignore the scientific advances, the cultural diversity, and how many communities don't stone their people anymore.

So there are double bacon donut cheeseburgers. Better than when that meat was rotten and they had to cover it up with spice they stole bartered from indigenous people.

And also when people say a bad movie/TV show is going to cause the end of civilization. Hello, we survived the bubonic plague. cool Though that was a bit of a Pyrrhic Victory...

I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.
