Will he be honoured by Israel by having his cum retrieved?

Easier to draw/animate, perhaps?

The reservists were preparing explosives to demolish two buildings in central Gaza on Monday when a militant fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a tank nearby. The blast triggered the explosives, causing both two-story buildings to collapse on the soldiers inside.

My deepest respect goes out to the courageous buildings.

I'm not 100% certain but I believe that the Weak Force is why the Four Fundamental Forces of Nature are sometimes referred to instead as the Four Fundamental Interactions of Nature. I believe it involves a neutrino combining with a neutron to create a proton, electron, and antineutrino, with the overall result manifesting as nuclear decay due to the instability from the change in nuclear charge.

The Strong Force isn't electromagnetism. EM force is what causes like-charged particles to repel each other. Protons are all positively charged, so one would expect them to repel each other, which would prevent atomic nucleii, and thus matter as we know it, from forming. But when protons are close enough to one another, the Strong Force overcomes the magnetic repulsion and the protons instead bind tightly together.

Exodia is an analogy for collective action.

Today I found someone parked in the spot my partner had dug out in the snow for our car, after I'd been out in my car for about ten minutes.

I gashed a line into their door with my key.

I don't know if this is a legitimate strike against private property, or me feeling shitty and needing to lash out and probably getting myself into trouble.

The Greatest Generation is pretty good, from what I recall.

If it's Gorka then my rookie card's value is gonna SURGE.

No real objection. It was meant to be sarcasm but upon re-reading the post I've realized it actually sounds pretty bad and not so different from a reactionary take. I am sorry about that.

Secret of Evermore is definitely an underrated title. It's got problems, but it includes some interesting mechanics, and it was developed in Square's US studio so its themes and tone are more accessible to Western players.

It was the first game for which Jeremy Soule composed the music. He later went on to compose music for Neverwinter Nights and multiple Elder Scrolls titles, including the Dragonborn theme.

Also I heard he's a sex pest.

They're an interesting villain from a sci-fi standpoint but I don't think they fundamentally represent anything, besides the classic concept of an emotionless enemy who can't be bargained or reasoned with and doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear.

They went through some revision during production - they were originally envisioned as a hive-minded insectoid race, but the budget wouldn't allow it. That's interesting, because a hive-minded race is simply existing in its natural state, whereas the Borg allow for the possibility that they began like any other species and had collective consciousness imposed upon them.

I think the threat represented by the Borg is ubiquitous enough that any viewer can impose their own political interpretation upon them.
