We could save both races and have twice the firepower at the final battle.

I'd been guessing for WWII or 2143, but WWI is pretty good too.

Art is whatever you want it to be. I personally think art must involve some creativity, though, so you can't just say anything is art.

I more meant the kind of people who just throw a can of paint at a canvas and call it an expression of their internal rage or some pretentious bullshit so they can make  quick buck off something that took all of five minutes to make
While I really don't care for Jackson Pollock or the liberal art student cult that worships him, some abstract expressionist paintings can make for really cool interior design pieces to just really bring a room together.

Eh. I've never really found a random mess of colours to be visually appealing in any way. Maybe it's just because it reminds me of the episode of The Moaning of Life where Karl had to create art by drinking a load of milk with food colouring then throwing up onto a canvas. I can't take it seriously as little more than someone taking a section of the bathroom wall out after someone had a particularly fantastic projectile vomiting display and selling it to the local gallery.

But that is art though. Whether or not it's shit is up to you.

And they certainly don't do it to make a quick buck, considering how little artists make.

Eh. I don't class it as art if it didn't require a modicum of skill to make. Art is supposed to represent something, to actually take time and effort and passion on the creator's part to make - at least that's the general idea I've always grown up with.

Well that's not something you hear every day.
There were only 20 B2 Spirits made I think and just one costs around $2 billion

Yeah but when you then have the government buying more tanks despite the army saying they don't need more tanks, I'd say that's when you have a seriosu misallocation of resources.

I think we're using the word "music" too generously these days.

Not just music

Art and Video Game are becoming a bit overused too

Serious / Re: What is your thoughts about inclusive teaching practices?
« on: February 26, 2016, 05:48:06 PM »
They just place everyone according to ability here. Retards tend to have their own special classes so they can get their own proper support and teaching and shit, while everyone else got placed in classes according to ability. If you were good at maths but shit at english, you'd be in the top class for maths and a lower one for english. I liked the system, it means you're always in a class with people of a similar skill to you in that subject and you're not being dragged down by the fact that teachers had to accomodate them.

For instance, I was in the third class for science (If you didn't take science as an additional subject at GCSE, you couldn't be in the top two) and I was stuck with some people who really didn't science all that much and it was painful; a good half the lesson would involve the teacher having to simplify the concepts over and over again just to explain something simple (An example being people who didn't get the concept that light has a speed/ isn't instantaneous travel or that an oil rig isn't divers going to the bottom of the sea to get the oil in big barrels - yes, an actual idiot believed that). It was infuriating because I'd just end up sitting there being useless because I'd finished all the work. Thankfully, that was a one-off, and all my other classes were with people who weren't bumbling retards. The actual autistic kids had their own block entirely to themselves so we never really saw them much.

So yeah, I can fully agree that mixed skill-level classes are bad. For the smarter kids it makes them have to slow down their learning to let the uh, less-able kids to catch up. And the less-able kids feel pressured to catch up to the smarter kids and thus they probably don't do as well. Placing smart kids with other smart kids and dumb kids with other dumb kids is better for everyone involved.

I named my weapons stuff like Meat Grinder (LMG), Pulverizer (Plasma Sniper), Shredder (Shotgun), Tankbuster (AM Rifle with explosive bullets as a legendary effect) etc.

This new one I've been quite boring, just naming them stuff like Pipe Sniper, Laser Shotgun etc.

I think I renamed Kellogg's revolver to The Cornflake on my original, too.

200 years and the pre-war buildings haven't been looted, the wasteland is an anarchy and civilisation hasn't advanced beyond the stone age
a world where colour tv hasn't  been invented has widespread use of VR
The assumption that people love simplified stat systems and more radiant sidequests/ less proper quests over the depth of previous games
making their unique, interesting fantasy setting into Lord of The Rings ft. Vikings
making an MMO out of a traditionally single player franchise
not updating their ~13 year old engine

You are legit just trying to state your opinion as if it is fact.
I'm sorry that I have to add "in my opinion" to my posts because you lack basic inference skills.
