Basically this. Former addicts played the PR campaign of addiction being a disease so they are never responsible their actions as long as they are trying to do better.

You're missing the best part. How they always claim to need raise fares and act ass backwards from any other company. "We are experiencing a record number of users. We need to raise fares to accommodate all these new people." Shouldn't all those new riders be giving profits? Then when less people ride "we need to raise fares because less people are riding." Well won't you be losing more revenue then as more and more people stop using you?

Wait... why the hell would anyone want to be dry? That sounds painful as hell for everyone involved.

Try the Johannes Cabal series. The first book is about a necromancer running a demonic carnival to get his soul back from the devil. Lots of magic and victorian style science elements in it.

The second book in the series is a straight up who done it murder.

NYC basically said they're "backlogged" 18 to 36 months on all license applications.

Years back someone named a team "the fighting whites" as a sort of gotcha. Then it backfired in their face as everyone loved it and started buying their merch. They eventually changed the team's name.

There is basically a playbook. I'm a member of lots of social media groups that revolve around cigars and girls.

It starts out guys posting pictures of what they're smoking and generic hot girls with cigars. Most of the conversation is about cigars at this point.Then it becomes dudes posting their girls(usually ugly) with cigars. Conversation starts to shift with dudes complaining that their girls don't get enough comments. The next step now is random girls joining the group and just posting pictures. There are no cigars now. Cigar conversation is gone. Girls going for likes start fighting that they're not getting enough attention. Cigar group ruined, true brothers of the leaf move on to new group to see the cycle repeat.

I never bought firearm accessories with a card to begin with. My trend will continue.

Well, guess it is time to cancel my preorders on these and buy used copies instead.

It really is baffling. It would be far easier and cheaper. It has to be a corruption thing, because "prison cities" are a thing in South America. Guards are going to make a ton of money letting stuff be smuggled in.

Seems about right. When I scroll through facebook in the morning after my phone spent all night charging I'll drop a wild amount of percentage on my battery.

They're trying to claim the guns were legally purchased. So let's assume for a second they were legally purchased by him that means the government screwed up somehow.

Supposedly he is notoriously hard to work with. Kevin Smith has mentioned this multiple times when talking about filming Cop Out and Willis also didn't like anything associated with Die Hard.

Don't forget the insane amount of covering professor X does for mutants that have legitimately done horrendous things because of their mutant powers if they want to join his school.

Winter War 2.0. Find the faults in your military by throwing hundreds of thousands of men into the grinder to fix the problems for next war.

It probably as someone has stated before a doctrine issue. The USSR and Russia afterwards strategic planning never envisioned a scenario in which they would be able to have or maintain air superiority long term over hostile territory and instead is focused on defense and retaliatory actions.

It makes sense when you look at Russia's primary potential enemies are. Also when you factor in Russia's previous military engagements have all be low level conflicts in which there wasn't any form contestable air space.

But I thought Ukraine was winning and was going to be marching into Moscow any day now?

About 90% of the German military was tied up on the eastern front. The western front mostly had second and third rate divisions and air support was completely unheard of.

Would the western allies have won without Russia? Probably. The US had 50% of the entire world's industrial power at the time and on paper could have fought the entire world at once.

But without Russia there would have been millions of American casualities. The UK probably would have ceased to exist as a state, by 45 they were strapped for manpower.

The post war of this scenario wouldn't be a time of economic boom, prosperity, and a population high on victory. It would have been a society that for all intents and purposes would have been gutted. In debt, and suffering from massive social strife. Look at Europe directly after WW1 and that would have been the US after WW2 in this world.

Imagine being so much of a loser where you get scared by something that you made and know what is going to happen.

He had no way to know that live bullets were on set? That's a bold claim considering the union crew walked off the set the day before for accidental discharges of the guns. And other crew members were allegedly shooting cans on set.
