Random Thoughts 2: Arbitrary Speculations

[Synobun]

Someone I grew up with went missing a week ago and was found dead this morning. Only found out about it because someone else I know, living in a city hours away, talked about it.

 

[Snerk]

That's heavy news to get. Suicide?

Not sure! He picked up a trailer for work but never made it to the job site. They've been very sparse with detail. I'll probably find out through the grapevine soon.

Are we actually sure that children taken from asylum seekers aren't drained of their blood for Peter Thiel and other creeps like in The Strain ?

 

[Takhisis]

Girls also think boys are cute.

girls need to seriously rethink their stance on this

That's a thought.

Were' sure, 'cause draining them of their blood would damage their valuable kidneys.

Oof, that's awful.

US Open trivia

https://www.pga.com/news/pga/john-shippen-jr-first-african-american-golf-professional

John Matthew Shippen Jr - first American born golf pro was a black man... He finished tied for 6th in the US Open at Shinnecock Hills NY and won $10

His buddy Oscar Bunn was an Indian, probably from the Shinnecock tribe, also competed in the 1896 US Open at Shinnecock Hills.

Many European pros refused to play if they were allowed into the tournament

Theodore Havemeyer, the President of the United States Golf Association (USGA), declared that the U.S. Open would be played, even if Shippen and Bunn were the only entrants.

Their bluff was called, they played too...

Can y'all remember when OT was split in two?

crazy times

It still is, in a way.

 

[Snerk]

Actually it's split in three. Raves, rants and random thoughts.

The rest is just filler.

You know a video game is going to be good if it starts with an actual, legitimate trigger warning.

 

[Synobun]

Meh, not really. Doki Doki starts with like 3 in-your-face trigger warnings and it was incredibly infantile with a mildly interesting hook.

The notion of the opioid crisis being payback for the Opium Wars is intriguing. It may just be a funny coincidence, but some may find justice in China turning the tables on the Anglophone superpower.

 

[Lohrenswald]

What is this opioid crisis

 

[GoodSarmatian]

You know a video game is going to be good if it starts with an actual, legitimate trigger warning.

Which game ?
Hatred ? Active Shooter ? Agony ?

The notion of the opioid crisis being payback for the Opium Wars is intriguing. It may just be a funny coincidence, but some may find justice in China turning the tables on the Anglophone superpower.

But why not target the Bri...
Oh, now I get it ! China was behind Brexit all along !
Once Britain is out, the Chinese navy will be sent into the Channel to negotiate a trade deal.

I just bought a drysuit for diving at a somewhat suspiciously low price. No idea what I'm doing, as usual. But it seems my life is heading into the sea for some reason.

 

[Takhisis]

somewhat suspiciously low price.

Did you leave the ‘Coming back up’ box unchecked? You might just have only checked the ‘for diving’ box.

 

[Snerk]

There wasn't any boxes to tick but the man did laugh evilish when I asked if everything worked as it was supposed to. I also remember some scary music playing at this point.
