I'll bring this up again as the obvious counterpoint, but I'd agree it was probably the Masterwork bastard sword guy.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

It's sort of a shame too. Civ I was so much more complex in detail, everything had encyclopedia-tier backgrounds. Now they barely get two coherent sentences for a descriptor.

That guy in the video. I like him. He explains things very straightforward.

About the gif. Hey, at least he chipped the other sword.

"The Japanese samurai were arguably the best pre-gunpowder warriors since the Roman legions."

...

"-tilizing steel that could not be matched in Europe until hundreds of years later..."

OK GUYS

WHO DID THIS

I THOUGHT YOU KNEW YOUR HISTORY

HA HA HA HA HA
Hmm, where did you get that info? I've seen it today but I can't remember where...

I thought samurai used something closer to cattle excrement than actual steel for their swords?

Well, Japan has terrible-quality iron deposits, so effectively they did. The process of making steel was mandatory for producing a blade of any significant utility.

An attempt to waive my student healthcare has lead me to the discovery that my healthcare policy has, at some point, apparently vanished. Not expired. Just gone.

I'm sure fixing this is going to be loads of fun.

At least the statue was subdued before it could do any harm.

There's a dark spot to my right that appears much darker and much larger in my peripheral vision. I keep glancing over without thinking. It's annoying me.

Trying help someone reset the password to their Google Account because she seemed to have forgotten it. First, she doesn't seem to know where the hell to go. She also seems to have not known that you don't need to append "@gmail.com" to the end of the username entry at the sign in screen(and *only* at the sign in screen). Nor does she know to not double-click every single thing on the internet(and I know more than one person who does that). Then, she has trouble with the captchas(granted, they were ridiculously impossible to read, even for me). She selects to have the reset code sent via text to her phone, and is surprised when her phone rings. She enters the code to set a new password. Then she types in the new password, but doesn't type it again in the confirm box below. Then(after it gave her the error) she types it in the confirm box, but not in the first box. After that error, she tries to type it in the first box and not the confirm box again, but managed to catch herself(with my assistance) before she hit enter.
