You've heard of the 100 year war? Try the 1700 year war. The three remaining nations have been locked in an eternal
death struggle for almost 2000 years. Peace seems to be impossible. Every time a cease fire is signed, the Vikings will surprise attack me or the Americans the very next turn, often with nuclear weapons.

 

That thing needs to be a tabletop rpg setting or something.

Great, now I have to play Civ2 again.

Yeah, motherfuck...

Those maps and the description are awe-inspiring.  Admittedly, it's not that different from other futuristic settings in fiction, but the fact that it arose naturally in a videogame that wasn't exactly built for that kind of character is incredible.

[Pnx]

So three super nations are at constant war with each other, and all the other nations in the world have been amalgamated into one of these three in a world where all of everyone's efforts goes into the war effort.

This sounds a lot like 1984.

EDIT: Apparently a lot of redditers saw the same thing, go figure.

Took Roxy for a walk around a couple blocks.  I figured out how to get her to slack-leash walk properly, get her so tired she can't outpace me.  Easy.

She peed on a fire hydrant, way to defeat those harmful stereotypes Roxy.  Technically, she peed on every natural and artificial edifice she saw, I don't know where she was keeping it all.

Also, saw a girl mowing the lawn in her bra.   Nice.

Well, thats certainly better than seeing some sunburnt guy mow the lawn shirtless yesterday.

Well ,thats certainly better than seeing some sunburnt guy mow the lawn shirtless yesterday.

I've seen this about umpteenmillion times... Indiana, I guess.

Never a girl, though.  In fact, it's very rare to see a female mowing a lawn at all, now that I think about it.

Totally unrelated happy: co-worker's birthday, so somebody spotted the bucks to go buy about 30 high-end designer cupcakes. These things are like a pound each, eight inches high, and have enough sugar and cream in them to power a generator. Sooooo good...I'm eating one that's covered in peanut butter mousse frosting with peanut-caramel drizzle and crusted with honey-roasted peanuts. I call it the "George Washington Carver Muthaf**kin' Special".

peanut butter?

ewww.

Blasphemer.

Also, it's been an hour now, and I've finally finished off the frosting and gotten down to the actual cupcake. I think that was probably only 800 calories or so...

And when we first started eating them, I made the prediction that 45-60 minutes later "this place is going to look like f**king Jonestown". On cue, sugar crash has turned me and my co-workers into barely functional blobs. It's hilarious and sad all at the same time.

EDIT: Oh god....the cupcake itself is filled with butter cream. You magnificent baking bastards!

This pasta sauce I made is basically habanero custard. Why is it still delicious.

Because it's habanero custard.

[Gunner-Chan]

peanut butter?

ewww.

The amount of things just outright... Wrong about you just keep increasing at an alarming rate.

[kaijyuu]

Indeed. Peanut Butter is awesome. Unless it's chunky; chunky can burn for all I care.

[Aklyon]

I agree with ponyman (and Janet), peanut butter is awesome.

[empfan]

It goes great with bacon, for some reason as well.

[The Merchant Of Menace]

I'm not fond of peanut butter personally.
