It would suck to have a gay roommate that's constantly trying to kiss you and all this other gay shit.

Projecting again?

Who here watches it? I've just started getting into it since my roommate is obsessed with it. Seems pretty good so far.

Recommendations on which of the other three seasons I should watch?

I thought not going on your phone and driving was common sense. Or having your passenger do it as a distraction.

If you go there, you will be surrounded by people whose parents have more money than your parents.

Don't start with that.

If I remember correctly alcohol is banned there.
Beautiful city though.

In some regions it is <.<

OP: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/united-arab-emirates/local-laws-and-customs

I know it's a britbong site but give this a read if you plan to visit, it basically gives you the information about any local laws that you might run into conflict with.

See - stuff likes this makes me hesitant to even consider hosting the World Cup in this region. Just a side note related to the laws.

OT: No, you should 100% have to be born here (or our territories) to be president.

Why?

Cause thats how I feel.

I wouldn't want a foreigner as president.

How ethnocentric of you.

You've been fapping too much.

Or...you know, the 135 minutes of sex could be a reason.

"More men are convicted than women"

I don't over-estimate abilities. Rather, their abilities are being under-estimated

Because there are not Mexican citizens who are part of the cartel and, over 35, and have lived in the U.S for 14 years, huh?

Yeah, I'm done with this.

Your entire argument revolves around the hypothetical "We're gonna be ruled by the mafia!!11!"

Have fun, Max.

Who's to say an important cartel member isn't intelligent and rational? If they were not then they'd have been arrested and indicted

You clearly overestimate their abilities.

Plus, allow me to point out the other flaw in this argument:

Quote
As directed by the Constitution, a presidential candidate must be a natural born citizen of the United States, a resident for 14 years, and 35 years of age or older.

See that bold and underlined section? Yeah, sorry. Your argument is invalid for a good 20 years. Come back in 2034.

I do know how the electoral process works. I received an A in government class



Getting an A in a low level government class hardly qualifies you to actually understand the electoral process in it's depth and complexity.

Feminists claim they want equality towards men, by here's the big kicker from the justice system point of view: More men are convicted than women, there's only ONE female federal penitentiary, and the state with the most women prisons is New York with a grand total of THREE. Just a small tidbit of hypocrisy when women claim they're treated unfairly, because they are not

So...your anti-feminist claim is now that there are less female prisoners and prisons?

Your point? Remove the requirement for a natural-born citizen to run then you'll have people from Mexico and Russia that are part of criminal organizations running for offices. There's also no provision people who are convicted felons to run

>Implying there aren't American citizens in gangs and criminal organizations

All the natural-born citizen clause is prevent intelligent and rational people who may have been born in a different country (Canada, European Powerhouses, Australia, etc.) from having a chance to run here, even if they've lived here since they were children.

If you honestly believe that removing the requirement would lead to an influx of cartel and mafia members running, and having a shot of winning, you clearly have no idea of the electoral process.

The Constitution is one package. Cherry-picking is NOT how you are to run a government. Do you seriously want people from Mexican cartels and Russian mafia bosses to run for president?

Two questions.

1.) Do you know how the Constitution works?
2.) Do you know how the Elections work?
Yes, I do

Really? Based on your original post in this thread about cartels and mafia's running for office, and how the Constitution doesn't get cherry picked...you coulda fooled me. :)

Not really...

Not really, in that it makes sense that in 2552, the Covenant knew about the Promethean?

It could just be the way he's phrasing it, but it still comes off as bad.

Curious - is this meant to be an AU, or does 343 just not care?
If you watched the video, he says the game starts in 2552 New Mombasa, then jumps ahead to 2557.

I am watching the video.

"We start the game in 2552, in New Mombasa, where you are chasing after an artifact the Covenant are after to invite their Promethean friends in. You lose the artifact, and then five years later..."

Still makes zero sense.

In this day and age, is this requirement to become President of the United States necessary? What does it protect? Why is it so important?

Discuss.

P.S: No, this is not an invitation for certain members to claim Obama was born in Kenya.
