Don't be absurd. They have filthy traitor perverts in Japan too. Look at those searches for "asian." What kind of filthy traitor to the Japanese porn industry would dare search for something that will probably but not definitely bring up Japanese porn?

Thailand has "Thai" come up three, times, "Japan" come up twice, "Korea" once and "Asian" once. They're fond of their own neighbourhood, are the Thais.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.

"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

Okay everyone, let's play a game, but first some appropriate music.

Let's play Stormfag or SJW!

The rules are simple everyone, these quotes have had any refrence to race or gender removed, guess if it was made by a stormfronter or Social Justice Warrior!

Fuck you Haruhi is clearly the best moe anime, and we will argue about how Haruhi and Nagato are OP and um... that girl with blond hair? is for shitters.

If you like Lucky Star then I will explain in great detail why Lucky Star is the a shitty shitty anime for shitty shitty people, and how the characters have no interesting abilities at all, and everything is poorly designed especially the skill challenges.

I was bored and decided to visit Cracked.com

Here's something from the comments section of this page on celebrity kindness, that should provide temporary relief from those suffering from dry eye syndrome.
And along those lines, here is another celebrity tear jerker for you:

This story is a reminder of the difference that a simple act of kindness can make.

Caroll Spinney is the voice of Big Bird from Sesame Street.
And the other day he was giving an AMA (Ask Me Anything) interview on Reddit.

During the interview he was asked:
“What has been your most meaningful interaction with a child?”

This was his answer:

“This is a very sad story, but it's real.

I got a letter from a fan.
He said his little 5 year-old boy named Joey was dying of cancer.
And he was so ill that he knew he was dying.

So the man asked if I would call his little boy.
He said the only thing that cheered him up was to see Big Bird on television.

(But) once in a while, he wouldn't see Big Bird, because (Big Bird) wasn't necessarily in every show.
So he asked could I telephone him, and tell him what a good boy he's been.

(Spinney said yes and called him)

And I had Big Bird say:
"Hello! Hello Joey! It's me, Big Bird!"

So he said:
"Is it really you, Big Bird?"

"Yes, it is."

I chatted with him for about ten minutes, and he said:
"I'm glad you're my friend Big Bird."

And I said:
"I'd better let you go now."

He said:
“Thank you for calling me Big Bird.
You're my friend.
You make me happy."

It turns out that his father and mother were sitting with him when the phone call came.
He was very, very ill that day.
And (the hospital) called the parents in, because they weren't sure how long he'd last.

Afterword his father wrote to me and said:
"Thank you, thank you."

He hadn't seen his son smile since October, and this was in March.
He said when they hung up the phone, his son said:
"Big Bird called me!
He's my friend."

And then he closed his eyes.
And he passed away.

And I could see that what I say to children can be very important.

His father said:
"We haven't seen our little boy smile in MONTHS.
He smiled, as he passed away.
It was a gift to us.
Thank you."

As I said at the top, this story just reminds me that kindness matters.
Kindness makes a difference.
Kindness never gets old.

Even though that little boy died.
He died with a smile on his face.

And I’m sure that’s something his parents will never forget.

Right, so I'm on a shared computer at the moment and I was browsing through the history for the hell of it, and I came across this:

I'm... not really sure what in the name of God's green cock I was looking at.

So far as I can tell, it's a bunch of people who think the stuff we role-play is the for really real deal. I knew three of these people in college.

I thought it was something to do with WotC at first.

I saw this thread and I literally became physically ill.

It wasn't this thread? Also it's a forum for wizards, as far as I understand. Expecting sanity is silly.

I get the feeling many of those people might be twelve year olds or something.

I remember coming across something similar for 'real life' vampires while searching something oWod related. Forgot what the site was called though.

Then, once you have absorbed the lesson, that your so-called "friends" are nothing but meat sacks flopping around in the fashion of an outgassing corpse, pile all of your dice and pencils and graph-paper in the corner and SET THEM ON FIRE. Weep meaningless tears.
