Dude you got scammed. This guy clearly charges people hundreds of dollars to torture them with shitty art. They pay him just so they don't have to interact with him anymore.

For anyone who doesn't know, this guy is one of the most skilled trolls of our time.

Despite the fact I disagree with him, he posts some entertaining stuff in the random picture thread.

Moved into a new apartment only about 100 feet down the road from my old apartment. Same landlord. Same plot of land. Same street and gate and all that. Got all my stuff set up and now my front door doesn't lead out onto the street, but a sort of gated courtyard. Despite that I'm not...

How long until Mexico devolves into a modern feudal state? Has it already? EDIT: added a video to not be an asshole

Tastes too much like caramel to me. I recommend Glen Grant for a mild whiskey. Red Label for a smokey whiskey.

Played for the free weekend. It is not a casual game. If you liked Red Ochestra you will like this. If you are a Call of Duty person, you won't.

Can you imagine a better story? A young man raised right goes off into the dangerous parts of the world in order to fight against the enemies of his civilization. He sacrifices his eye and his youthful purity through war and returns to our civilization to bestow upon us the truths that he has...

We have political threads, right? Do we need all this political bullshit in the thread where we collect titties and cool shit? Is nothing fucking sacred?

Happy America Day from across the pond you filthy animals. Me and a couple of other expats are going down to the local park to grill and drink beer. I'll try not to bring too much freedom to this filthy krauts.

Depends on the town and on the beach. Bay side in Barnstable has a special beach where you can have fires. I don't know any on the Atlantic side where you can do that. Plenty of lakes where we would do that shit as teenagers though. Whenever the cops showed up they would make us put it out...

What town?

Don't go to Province Town and you'll be fine.

Gonneville of the Cuirassiers: The Personal Recollections of a French Cavalryman of the First Empire by the Countess de Mirabeau With this book you get exactly what it says on the title. These are the persona recollections of a French cavalryman during the Napoleonic years. There is...

Added it to my Goodreads. I love Bernard Cornwell, but his books are quite formulaic. But I'm a sucker for anything with vikings and saxons duking it out. Thanks for the recommendation!

I got to say - as someone who lived in Poland for two years - I am disappointed that this cross-gendered shit was added into a game by a Polish developer. Wonder how sales will do in Polska. They'll probably still eat it up out of national solidarity. Katana looks weak af btw.

^ All Quiet on the Western Front was the first film I ever saw him in.

Rapp: The Last Victor by Jean Rapp I wanted to like this book, because I have a fascination with the Napoleonic Era. Unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy this book because of how dry it is. I understand these are Jean Rapp's memoirs, but that just leads me to believe Rapp had zero story-telling...

I'm a warlock because I have tattoos? So when does the magic kick in?

Josephine: Desire, Ambition, Napoleon by Kate Williams This book follows the life of Empress Josephine, and I think it is probably the most interesting book I have ever read that covers any facet of the Napoleonic Era. I recommend it to anyone who wants to see Napoleon through the eyes of a...

post more tribal bitches

I can heartily back up this. I watched the original when I was a teenager and hated it. Then I watched the director's cut last year and loved it. One of the biggest thing is they flesh out the Queen/Princess character, and explain why she makes the decisions that she did. They also flesh out...

Viriconium by M. John Harrison got a second life through Neil Gaiman's recent campaign to reprint the stories he loved as a child. I first listened to it as an audio book, and then bought it on Amazon so I could own a copy. It's a collection of short stories all set in Viriconium, a city that...

I got paid for February, and my bank gave me my money back from my Lufthansa flight! But I haven't gotten paid for March... Also one of my students is a high level lawyer here in Germany (at least in the province I live in) and he was saying his tax rate is something in the neighborhood of...

My dude. Look up Chani on wikipedia. It's her picture on the article. I did all of 15 seconds of research to acquire my darling woke points. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that jazz, but calling this chick fugly is objectively false.

You gay?

I think they're simply Caucasian tribesmen in space. One of my favorite books to read is The Sabres of Paradise by Lesley Blanch. I bought it because I had read an article stating it inspired Herbert in a big way. Holy shit what an understatement. The Sabres of Paradise is literally about a...

@TJT Thanks, man. That's going on the amazon list and once this all blows over I'll order it up.

What book are you reading? Is it called "First Contact?" Just based on that anecdote I'd like to read it.

I don't know, man. This is pretty close to what I had in my head when I read through the novel. The guy that plays Duke Leto looks a little young, sure, but I'm still excited.

Definitely Caladan. Chalamet looks the part. Kind of exactly how I always pictured Paul. Glad they didn't over-produce the spaceships.

Hey man that's a great model but I wanted to ask, did you spray-gun a blue undercoat and then paint on the red and gold? If so, how did you get the red and gold to be so strong even with such a dark undercoat?

Napoleon's Marshals by R.F. Delderfield Delderfield's work is a prime piece of evidence to support the idea that journalists - not historians - should be the ones writing history books. I have read quite a few books about the Napoleonic Era, but none wrote it with as much punch as Delderfield...

Applied to a job in Boston, including in my cover letter that the reason I applied for the job is because I want to move back to the States. Today I got an email thanking me for the application, but also informing me that the company rarely does work in Germany, but that they would update me if...
