Uh Oh moments

onion-souls:

When a game series that didn’t have gunplay suddenly introduces guns

Even worse, cars

When an anime introduces fusions

When it’s a Batman story featuring a cool, underused Batman villain in an interesting tale based around that villain’s unique aspects and then they cut to a scene with a murder victim with a ghoulish smile or a Joker playing card.

Just how much of a secret was D-Day?

These photos were all taken on June 6th, 1944 – in New York City, to be sure, which at that point was five or six hours behind London time. (Between daylight savings time and double summer time I haven’t been able to figure out precisely what the time difference would have been.) Regardless, the invasion would have been well underway – and in the news – by the time people in NYC were getting out of bed that morning. Look at those placards, though – those don’t look to me like the sort of thing that could be whipped up on 90 minutes’ notice, which implies that people were anticipating what was about to happen. (I suppose that they could have been made in advance and held in readiness!)

Notice how none of them have dates? A big thing like the invasion of mainland Europe took serious planning and time to prepare, so everyone knew it was going to happen. It’s also easy to forget, looking back, that D-Day, before Overlord, had all the heavy connotations of “kick off time, but for the military”, in that it was a pretty bland piece of time notation for operational planning. But this was the big one, so that kind of terminology would enter the public consciousness while on a war footing.

To be fucking honest, I love ST AR-15 because she is just. So fucking done.

She’s a grade-A bitch like 416 but in a different way. She’s just. She really, really just wants to tuck herself in bed and watch some Tom & Jerry.

I’ve never seen someone who wants to be here less than AR-15. She is so tired. Homegirl gets home every day ragged, cracks open cheap booze, and smokes a cigarette while wistfully looking out of the window, thinking “man, art sucks”. AR-15 the kind of girl that breaks the masseur’s fingers without meaning to because she’s just so damn tense. AR-15′s phone vibrates, and she winces visibly. Great. SOP MOD II sent another fucking shitty meme. It’s another cat with a caption. Phone vibrates again. This time, it’s the AR Team Whatsapp group chat. It’s M4 telling the three of them that she loves them and that she hopes they are doing ok. AR-15 gets pissed because she wants to get pissed but can’t. She looks at SOP II’s shitty homebrewed meme again and that does get her angry. She plays Candy Crush for a bit but sucks at it, so she gets frustrated and just checks some pinterest pages, and then gets even more pissed because the art is unsourced. “man, fuck art.”

In that one McDonald’s triangle, AR-15 has a special section which reads “Rolls up to the McDonald’s drive-thru and asks for a Whopper”. It’s always Misery Day in AR-15′s life. I want to get her a comfy scarf, I feel so bad for her, I love her, please keep her in your thoughts.

BTW, my GFL UID is 130218

Got cz805 on the 18th run.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I have gotten ZERO CZs and the 75 is a event only T-Doll (which likely won’t go live for a few months at least)

But I do have Vector, Suomi, 416, and both of the main UMP sisters (no 40 yet), so complain I should not.

I even got a Thompson and a SAA (scrapped SAA cause I genuinely dislike the art, hate me if you want but it’s just…not good).

But no feckin CZ. Not even the TZ.

40 is event. NODgoblin is me.

Have a couple echelons grinding the X-4E missions. Took me ummm… 130ish runs to get FMG.

Yesterday I went to buy some yarn and so you know how annoying it is when fucking people put those stupid bullshit “don’t use this, wool is murder” PETA stickers on the label?

First of all, stop defacing stock in someone’s store. You’re not clever or saving the planet or anything. You’re making it hard for customers to shop and see the info they need on the label (yardage, weight, dye lot)… You’re making employees spend hours peeling the damn things off, and in some cases, you’re causing damage to the label and or yarn itself. That means loss to the company, which affects employees who probably make minimum wage, you shit bags. You want to make change happen? Contact corporate, you fuckhead. That’s where decisions are made.

Second of all, wool is not murder. Are you fucking stupid? (Obviously the answer is yes). It’s a fucking haircut for a sheep. They’ve been domesticated so long that if we don’t sheer them, it’s bad. Yes, some sheep don’t live in ideal conditions. Got a problem with that? Going to a yarn store and putting stickers on things isn’t going to change it or the minds of customers. For fuck’s sake, you absolute cockwomble, go to the yarn companies. Make them use wool providers that use humane conditions for their yarn, like A LOT OF YARN COMPANIES DO.

And third of all.

You. You precious, empty-headed little shitnugget. You complete and total sawdust-for-brains.

You put your fucking stickers all over acrylic yarn.

There’s no fucking wool in there. It’s all synthetic fiber. Basically, it’s plastic.

You fucking dumbass.

I connect with this post on a spiritual level

I’m halfway between OMG PETA STOP EMBARRASSING YOURSELVES and a wide-eyed troll of BUT WHO WILL PROTECT THE PLASTIC SHEEP??? 😲

Look, hundreds of acrylics DIED for that yarn, show some respect

Do Mannequin Dream of Plastic Sheep?
