Bravo. There is no Constitutional basis for this E.O nor is it relevant to his job as enforcer of the laws

Not to derail the thread, but is there some sort of reason you think it's appropriate to have a picture of Osama Bin Laden as your avatar? Is the death of 3,000 Americans funny to you? Was 9/11 a joyous day for you?

Show some god damn respect. You should be ashamed of yourself.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Standing up for what's right in this forum is like telling a kid to clean his room. You're all a bunch of fuckin kids with barely half a brain functioning caring more about how others perceive you than being yourselves. Grow up.

Is Kinder using an edgelord avatar hurting anybody? I mean, shit, sometimes we have Nazi avatars. I really don't see the problem. I don't see much of a point, either, but I don't see a point in half of the dumb shit Kinder does.

Much better.

Keep this civil people, I'd quite like to go to sleep soon so unless I can fob this off onto someone else the minute it goes nasty I'm going to get harsh <_____________<

What the hell is ORAS?

Omega Ruby / Alpha Sapphire, the Hoenn remakes that released today/next friday.

Oh... the 800th Pokemon game that is literally the same as all the rest. No thanks.

To each their own.

Do people no longer just play Pokemon games like back in the day? Just catching pokemon and going along with it? Now all I hear is things about shinies, pokebank and EV training.

Well the shiny hunting can be quite a lot of fun, and it adds an extra level of catching them all when you already have caught them all.

Pokebank is just wonderful though, since they never[/u] give you enough damn boxes in the game having the ability to store all of your pokemon from other generations together rather than spread throughout various cartridges is quite enjoyable <.<

As for the EV training, that's a competitive battling thing. I learned how to do it, and I tried it out on a greninja and it does make a notable difference to the power of the pokemon. However I don't do that normally because I don't do battling so it would be a wasted effort >.>

The IV stuff is quite fun though, at least for me because it's an extra element to the breeding side of pokemon <.< Which is what I enjoy the most, breeding and raising pokemon so having a bit of pseudo-DNA to work with is something that appeals to me >.>

It's all completely optional stuff though, it just adds an extra depth to the games for those who want to play around with it.

Mr. P is a lapsed Tory, and I certainly think he's naturally conservative in a similar way to me, although I'd hesitate to call him ideologically conservative.

quack >.>

It's true though, if I didn't hold such disdain for the present government I'd be inclined to vote tory <.<
I am certainly a more conservative than liberal person, in the looser sense of the term that is.

But my general dislike of privatisation (in particular of the NHS) would put me at loggerheads with most ordinarily conservative parties.

I don't have it yet >_>

However I've spent the run up to the release date making a few special pokemon to send over.

It's going to roughly look like this by the time I reach the pokemon centre/pokebank part.

Mudkip, Dat shiny beldum, Shiny Eevee/Umbreon (If RNGesus blesses me in the next 7 days of grinding) then the other three slots are kind of open/mixed.

I've bred a Skarmory, a Torkoal, a Sableye and a Ralts pair (M/F) but I'll be keeping them as reserve pokemon to leave a few spots open for ones to join me along the way <.<

I'm at work and I have a thundering headache. I thought coffee and cigarettes would help but nopenope still hurts like a bitch

Coffee is something to avoid if you have a headache <.<
I don't know about cigarettes though, other than the 'Just no' factor >.>

ah ok, thanks. I guess tea will have to do instead. Tea is ok right?

Tea should be alright >.>
I'd suggest some ibuprofen/paracetamol if it's a real bitch, they cost like 30p for 32 tablets from tescos lol.

Yep, supertraining, PTS, and pokemon amie have all returned. Also, mystery gift will give you a shiny Beldum. Pokebank works for ORAS as well.

Fuck yes

Your avatar is now even more adorable.

Upboated.

8/10 nao.

um gay

How rude.

When I hit 10/10, I'm going to downboat you 10 times.

If they had gone with something a bit more practical, like 12 weeks (When the CNS starts to develop IIRC) then I could see it working. But 6 weeks cut off? That's ridiculous.

Another article, looks like all those 'leaked' PSN accounts are actually made up. That or it's just sheer coincidence that everyone who is testing them out is getting dead ends and account names that don't exist/available logins.

Hmmmmmmmmm

So yeah, it's just trolling.

But Sony and MS need to bump up their security anyway.

Fuck Pokemon Amie, I want them to make the game more challenging.

I'm not a huge fan of the bonuses you get for grinding >.>
I just liked petting/feeding the pokemon <.<

Dun have it yet, it looks good though <.<

Going to download the demo at some point too.

I thought you didn't want to play farcry because of all the killing of animals?

I don't enjoy that, and I avoid it as much as possible.

But it's just a game after all <.<
What I don't like or didn't like in FC3 was how if you wanted to have a wallet that could hold more than $1000 you had to gut about 30 buffalo and 20 sharks -.-

Oh ok cool, because well like you said it is only a game. No animals are actually harmed lmao >.>

Lawl yes >.>

I don't like it, and I don't enjoy it but it is just a game.

Is it normal to feel guilt when killing animals in game, because I do feel bad about it. No homo

I suppose so <.<
It wouldn't be abnormal to not feel guilt, but to take pleasure in it would be... disturbing...

I can't say I've felt pleasure in killing animals in game but getting a headshot on humans using a bow from like 30ft away is a little satisfying >.>

Hehe yeah, I thoroughly enjoy killing people in video games.

Mr. Psycho confirmed Psycho

don't bant meh please

Hehe, well I was actually confirmed as a nutcase a few years back >_>

Details

Quote

President Barack Obama will announce this week that he is shielding about 5 million undocumented immigrants from deportation and will travel to Las Vegas for an event Friday to promote it, according to sources familiar with the planning.

Senior administration officials began calling immigration reform proponents Wednesday to fill them in on plans for the rollout and the details of the proposal.

The executive actions will cover 4 million undocumented immigrants who would qualify for deferred deportations by using criteria such as longevity in the United States and family ties, according to sources briefed on the discussions. Another 1 million would receive protection through other means, two sources said.

There will be no special protections for farm workers or parents of Dreamers — two categories that groups had lobbied hard for — because there were concerns about those pieces clearing the legal bars, sources said. However, the administration officials noted in their calls, many people who fall into those categories would qualify if they have children who are U.S. citizens or legal permanent residents. Dreamers, in contrast, are undocumented immigrants who were brought to this country by their parents as minors.

Obama could announce his plans in a prime time speech Thursday, the senior administration officials told advocates, though it’s unclear that the speech will be broadcast at that time. Top aides, meanwhile, are suggesting that the president will go big.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson confirmed Wednesday that Obama will make his announcement “in the coming days” and that the reforms the president puts forward will be “comprehensive.” Speaking at an event hosted by the New Democrat Network, a left-leaning think tank, Johnson said the president has “fairly wide latitude” to act under the law.

“He’s going to go as far as he can under the law,” Domestic Policy Council Director Cecilia Muñoz said Tuesday. Still, the administration acknowledges that there are limits to what he can do. “He’s going to be the first to say that it doesn’t fix everything that’s broken.”

Dawn Le, of the Alliance for Citizenship, offered a hint at the timing in an email that the AFL-CIO’s Jeff Hauser forwarded to reporters before asking them to “ignore” the previous note.

“We hear there will be a prime time Thursday evening announcement (to preview) and full unveiling in Vegas on Friday,” Le wrote. “Unclear whether Thursday night content will be what is ‘celebratory,’ but Friday will be where we need a lot of energy guaranteed.”

The president’s turn to executive action comes after pushing House Republicans for more than a year to take up the immigration bill passed by the Senate in June 2013. Obama had long held out hope that House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) would bring the bill to the floor, but when the speaker told the president that he would not be holding a vote on it in 2014, Obama vowed in a Rose Garden speech to act on his own.
Obama had initially planned to announce executive actions on immigration at the end of the summer but in September the White House said he would put off a final decision until after Election Day, amid Democrats’ concerns that it would create another complication on the campaign trail ahead of the midterm elections.

With a nine-day trip to Asia and Australia behind him and Thanksgiving on the horizon, Obama has spent this week working out the final details of his announcement. The trip to Las Vegas brings him full circle from January 2013, when he launched a push pressuring Congress to pass comprehensive immigration reform, repeating the mantra “now is the time.”

He spoke then at Del Sol High School, the same venue that local press reports say the White House has chosen for Friday’s announcement.

Republicans have been preparing to respond in large part by accusing Obama of overreach and by pointing to his repeated statements last year that he did not have the authority to act on certain pieces of immigration reform.

“If ‘Emperor Obama’ ignores the American people and announces an amnesty plan that he himself has said over and over again exceeds his Constitutional authority, he will cement his legacy of lawlessness and ruin the chances for congressional action on this issue – and many others,” Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said Wednesday.

Initial Democratic responses are more positive.

Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) said Wednesday that Obama’s action would put him in the company of “great” presidents, including Abraham Lincoln and Harry Truman, who both used their executive authorities to expand rights for African Americans. “I think that President Obama ought to put himself alongside these … great presidents and use [an] executive order to do something big on immigration,” he said on MSNBC.
The legality of the president’s actions, Clyburn added, is up to the courts and not Congress. “Let’s let the courts decide whether it’s constitutional. That’s not for Congress to decide, that’s why we have courts to make that decision,” he said.
