Sure, I’ll buy.

He’s just gonna crop out that cheerleader Trump and slap it on there but it will take him the rest of the year to do it.

I think that’s pretty funny.

You’re nothing but a MiniFrink!

It’s true. You’ve discovered me.

How does the Sith skeleton in the family closet even become public? More than half the people who know who Vader really was are dead.

Was wondering that myself.

What is this, Tiger Beat Magazine now? Jeez.

I’ve decided I’m going to try cutting back on all the sexual innuendoes/humour/nonsense I’ve taken to posting around here. I feel I’m getting too carried away with it, that it’s starting to overwhelm me.

Good for you man. You’ll look back and cringe a lot less, trust me.

Since you are made of machinery that means you can’t use lightning attacks. We proved that in another thread.

Not quite.

I’ll give you that, but I feel like cyborg implies surgically implanted machinery.

Hey pal, I’m 100% human (and 100% beefcake). I’m just dipped in a hard candy shell.

Asking yourself, “is this too hot for OT.com?” should suffice. 😉

Guess you should just ban me right now as I am far too hot for OT.com.

Someone already coined a term for that? Yikes.

People on Tumblr who are into weird stuff like that waste no time.

It got some allols outta me! I like it.

Fine, then it would have been NGA - GER in English-speaking countries. Christ.

Again, I’m not making a comment about whether it’s right or wrong, it’s just the world we live in.

Someone didn’t think that through.

Why? Assuming the photo is real, it is obviously a standard match template with two countries’ initial three letters. If anyone makes an association to black person, it is their own fault. If anyone even finds it offensive, they are simply stupid.

Yes, it is obviously a standard match template. However, I don’t have much knowledge of German TV companies and considering the social media post it’s from is in English, I assumed that the photo was probably off of an English-speaking station.

On English speaking TV, I can guarantee you they would have transposed Germany and Nigera’s places in order to avoid this. Is that right? Is that wrong? I don’t know, and I don’t really care. I just know that people are sensitive about that word and that media will go above and beyond to not say or spell bad words in general, or create a situation that might offend someone and create bad press for them. I assume one of the reasons Nigeria is abbreviated to NGA instead of the first three letters of the country name is to avoid this kind of situation.

I’m not here to say it’s stupid or not, but it’s bad business. That’s why I said it wasn’t thought through.

I would love to see a movie about Obi-Wan’s days on Tatooine, but I’m not a fan of how they put that trailer together.

Someone didn’t think that through.

Interesting insights, Darth Lucas! Thanks!

We’ve got a thread for this stuff and it’s not this one, thanks.

It’s a great game with a great soundtrack. Power Glove is awesome.

The only issues I had with the first iteration were fixed with the second! Looks great!

OT.com is liable to cause my brain to hemorrhage any day now.

No image-only posts unless the image has a direct bearing on the topic at hand and it adds value to the discussion.

How am I skirting the rule? The images were direct answers to the OP.

That shouldn’t change anything.

Reason #84 you won’t ever be asked to be a moderator!

Rules are rules. How should this person get a temp ban for this and you don’t for a similar post because people like you or you’re a “pillar of the community‽”

Well for one (if you’d actually read the rules or Frink’s quoting of them):

4. No image-only posts unless the image has a direct bearing on the topic at hand and it adds value to the discussion.

Emphasis mine.

I’ve gotten used to my very nice headphones, but when I first got them the difference was amazing.
