Il-2 Sturmovik hates America.  Playing a Zero against a Wildcat, there was a period of 30 seconds or so where the plane flew straight ahead without attempting to dodge my withering volley of fire.

Playing a BF-109 against Hurricanes, it was like fighting the Terminator.  As soon as I get a shot lined up they start pulling out all these crazy maneuvers.  It was ridiculous.

Also, extremely one-sided fights are fun.  Me-163 versus four 1939 biplanes?  Hell yeah bro.

Is the game your playing stright from the disc or patched? The non-patched version had crappy AI for some of the american planes like the lightining because of how they were supposed to be used.

Lightining is supposed to be flown in sweeping arcs into a dogfight then out the other side, using speed to cut it's way through. The AI's coding however sees this as 'Charge like an idiot at the enemy and pretend your a dgofighter plane.'

Well, my mom seems to be enjoying insulting my cooking and calling me dumb.

I shouldn't cry about that anymore, but I still do.

Parents should never actually insult their children. It's just cruel.

Doesn't help to be screamed at for "lack of communications skills," either.  So she's tired of settling for less?  Doesn't like my inability to explain the precise color and smell shallots and garlic should be before throwing in noodles when I have a head cold and have only made the dish once?

Moms can be like that. Try talking to her Vector, you know, sit down and tell her how you feel. People don't usually mean harm, especially those closer to you, I'm she doesn't either.

Call me crazy, but I'd (We'd?) love to have some rain down here. The government keeps selling us this water crisis carp, and taking our money in the process.

As she likes to say, she's the mother and she holds the power here.  If she's going to find me unworthy, that's her right.

Hahaha >_>

Yes, she's the reason why a number of folks have decided they think parents should have to have licenses before they're allowed to raise children.

I find that rather stubborn (for lack of a better word). Even if you are the head of the family, you should mind other people and at least have the common decency to not insult them at every turn of the road.

Maybe I'm being naive, but maybe you could try to talk to her more, see why she's acting that way.
