I'm not sure if this is a typo on Jacob William Rees-Mogg, or George R.R. Martin

You can't play racing games if you believe that. I'd far rather play an FPS at 30 than a racing game at 60. Low frame rates can give me motion sickness at high camera speeds.

This reminds me, I was once walking into a Melbourne Metro station, and the Aussie mate I was with had been spinning me some web of shit for a while, I finally lost it and loudly announced "LOOK, mate, I'm not gonna believe any of the SHIT that comes out of YOUR MOUTH ever since you tried to sell me on FUCKIN HOOP SNAKES" and a random commuter woman in earshot literally doubled over laughing.

Way to infantalize ... his childish tantrums.

Come on dude. Either there's a standard here or there isn't.

Actually the first colonists were French. The claim was transferred to Spain via a pact between the Bourbon kings of both countries. The Spanish name for The Falklands derives from the French, Îles Malouines, named after Saint-Malo/Sant-Maloù.

The Argentinians only ever occupied the islands for six months, for a penal colony - which ended via mutiny, not military expulsion. They've otherwise been under continuous British occupation since 1833, barring the 1982 war.

I'm English, and by no means pro-English colonialism, but the Argentine claim is spurious nonsense.

All utterly predictable, but British voters couldn’t collectively bring themselves to vote for Corbyn, so …

Does E ship with a memorial John McAfee skin?

Hey, I can think what happened in Eastern Europe was just authoritarian dictatorships, backed by Muscovite colonialism & branded as communism just the same as what happened in parts of South America was just authoritarian dictatorship, backed by American imperialism & branded as laissez-faire capitalism.

Also I can think communism has never actually been tried, and that it’s functionally impossible (therefore people should stop advocating for it).

"The absolute state of this sub", said to imply that it's a delusional liberal/lefty cesspit, contrasted to the right-thinking 'real world'.
