Well, what if it is acknowledged as satire, but opens the gate for serious discussion, instead if just starting out with shitposting and leading to shitpost comments?

*sigh*  fuck it.  If this thread is going to cause members to be butthurt about a fun little satirical article being posted and generating discussion (even if dissolved into pissfighting), then just lock this thread or move it.

Yeah.  I think I would enjoy the pirate captain life.

...as a furry.

......don't hate me.

What the fuck is it with torturers and shoving things into people's anuses?
I mean seriously, you can't get much more closeted than this.

Did I forget to mention that I've changed my desired career?

Good.

Journalists are intellectual whores.

Well when you put it that way...

Icy=whore confirmed?

Napoleon was correct.  Mentally and physically destroy someone, and they'll do anything to stop the pain, including telling the torturers exactly to the letter what they want to know, even if the information may not be true.

But embrace the prisoner, humor them and act like a human rather than treating them as "the enemy", and they'll feed you information, gradually.

Any American against immigration is not an American and doesn't believe in the American Dream.

There's no such thing as "illegal" immigrants.

I'm going to hold off on starting an argument. Half of my family are immigrants and we have no respect for illegals

Good for you. You're not true Americans.

Yeah we are. My mom's side of the family worked hard to survive and embraced the American Dream, unlike many illegals; all they care about is coming here and sending money back to their home country, my family and true immigrants want to assimilate into American culture and become an American, that's what immigration is about. If you're not going to bother to learn the language, educate yourself, stay away from crime, and spend money on American business then you have no reason to immigrate

Immigrants are immigrants. Every American is an immigrant, and they're all illegal at that. Did the natives give any of you a visa? Nope. No American has the right to complain about immigration when these people are doing the same shit your ancestors did.

Just want to add that while Natives and Pilgrims were not BFFs as history wants to remember them as, the Natives didn't go around pushing them out of territory.  They treated each other diplomatically and through trade.  But as colonization grew, the Pilgrims wanted to expand their version of society and wiped out whole tribes.

Illegal Mexican immigrants, on the other hand, are escaping their homes to integrate into American lifestyles and pursue that legendary American Dream.  But like Challenger said, incredibly restrictive immigration laws and errors on pieces of paper are keeping them out of the country.  They're not wanting to turn everybody Mexican or exterminate people (no, I'm not denying the existence of very few criminals that go over the border and kill a few people), they want to live comfortably without the Cartels and oppressive governments breathing down their necks.  Hell, they're wanting to take even the WORST labor just to make a living, compared to the average American.

My Social Studies teacher in private school, who is a staunch Republican, infuriated the hardcore "MURRICA" members of my class when he said, "You know who picks those fruits and vegetables that you put on the dining room table?  They aren't your average Americans, that's for sure."  And it's because he's right.  One classmate stood up and claimed he'd do that kind of job any day.  Of course, now he just sits in his daddy's company making bank compared to me.

EDIT:  Well, ironically enough this country does make "illegals" who fight in our military American citizens after they do their duty.

I also love cock.

Dark Souls.

I got it from Gamefly for the very first time, and was excited to finally be able to play this game.  Shortly after leaving the prison, someone invades my world.  Me, of course being a noob, thought that I was getting a companion.  He appeared before me in his majestic, high-level armor with a giant intimidating weapon.

Naturally, I waved to this stranger, hoping that he was here to help me and not just notice me as a "noob" and leave.  Sadly, my inexperienced self did not realize that "Invading" meant "go into other people's worlds and rek their shit to the point where it's classified as rape."

I stared at my game, turned off my Xbox, and refused to touch Dark Souls for months.

A council of Native American leaders has offered partial amnesty to the estimated 220 million illegal white immigrants living in the United States.

At a meeting of the Native Peoples Council (NPC) in Albuquerque, New Mexico yesterday, Native American leaders considered several proposals on the future of this continent's large, unauthorized European population. The elders ultimately decided to extend a pathway to citizenship for those without criminal backgrounds.

"We are prepared to offer White people the option of staying on this continent legally and applying for citizenship," explains Chief Wamsutta of the Wampanoag nation. "In return, they must pay any outstanding taxes and give back the land stolen from our ancestors.

"Any white person with a criminal record, however, will be deported in the next 90 days back to their ancestral homeland. Rush Limbaugh will be going to Germany. Justin Bieber will depart for Canada. And the entire cast of Jersey Shore will be returning to Italy."

Sustained European colonization of North America began in the 16th and 17th centuries, when arrivals from France, Spain and England first established settlements on land that had hitherto been occupied by native peoples. Over the past 400 years immigrants from these countries and others throughout Europe have transformed the demography of the continent.

Despite their numerical superiority, many scholars question the legality of the European settlement, as it was founded on a mixture of unauthorized immigration, war and genocide.

Progressive native groups welcomed the council's decision today as a step forward towards normalizing relations with the White community. However, many conservative Native Americans are upset about the plan, claiming that amnesty will only serve to reward lawbreakers.

"Why can't we just deport all of the Whites back to Europe?" asks Ité Omáǧažu of the Lakota people, "They're just a drain on our economy anyway. They came over here to steal our resources because they're too lazy to develop their own back home.

"I can't believe we're just going to let them pay a fine. They should get to the back of the line like everybody else - behind the Mexicans."

I'm all for it, if it means I get to go back to Scotland, Germany or Norway.  I mean, I sure as hell won't be able to afford all those outstanding taxes.

The thing is, Joel isn't supposed to be "good" or "bad."  It's the fucking zombie apocalypse, and you're playing a grizzled man who lost his only link to life after a soldier gunned the both of them down.  The Fireflies aren't good either, despite their anti-government stance following the outbreak.  Everyone's a shade of grey in this game.

That being said, if I had to choose an answer, then no.  Joel was not acting like the bad guy.  He was acting like a father figure out to protect "his baby girl" from people who were not even convinced themselves that the cure would even work, and then Ellie's sacrifice would have been in vain.  Ellie brought Joel's head out of his ass and taught him to care again, to give a fuck about the people in his life.



^ That there, hands-down, is my favorite fucking scene in the whole game.  It demonstrated how determined Joel is to get Ellie back and keep her safe, even when he was still recovering from getting impaled a month or two prior.  And when they made it to the Fireflies base and found out they're not the saviors they claim to be, he took down an entire fucking army to get Ellie back safely.

Plus, even if the "cure" managed to work, it's not like society will be back to normal in a fortnight.  It's been 20 years of Hell-on-Earth, there's mass societies of hunters, cannibals, rapists, and cruel tyrannical regimes.  Who says the cure would've changed anything?

Joel took the risk of taking down an entire base to get his little girl back, and in doing-so would rather spend his life with her at his brother's safe and growing community instead of losing the person who brought him back to life.
