Forgot today was 4/20 until the cute cashier at the supermarket wished me a happy one.

I told her I didn't know anything about it, but wished her a good night.

Why do all the cute cashiers celebrate Hitler's birthday?  Sigh.

[TamerVirus]

No no no, they're celebrating the anniversary of Columbine, silly

Look far back enough in history and you'll find a terrible persons birthday for just about every day of the year.

Hitler Apologist says what?

[hector13]

Yeah smj, how dare you suggest it’s alright for Hitler to have a birthday just because other dictators and genocidal fuckheads have birthdays.

... Megaman X8, why do your robots scream as they die...?

Watching the first bit of a TAS to see if I cared to watch more and. Not sure if I was hearing right. But I was. Some of the robot enemies were, in fact, emitting death cries as they exploded.

Like. It makes some sense since a lot of the stuff you murder in the X series games actually are by and large as intelligent et al as any human, but. Still.

E: Though that does make me have the thought. If I ever design killbots in the future, make them emit the screams of dying children when attacked (alongside whatever other sonic based dickery can be included).

Bonus points for including on the fly data sifting to personalize the wailing based on whoever's attacking. I don't think anyone's actually tried to leverage metadata and whatnot to make a battlefield more of a hell, yet, and it strikes me that could be a thing in the future.

Screaming robots as they explode makes about as much sense as them emitting a bunch of vocal error messages as they power down slowly (then explode), so enh.

In fact, It makes sense they would broadcast their failure in some way, so that whatever governs or commands them could be updated.  And being programed to actually fear death is an oddly human thing to do.

Haha that's pretty cool. Any news on how it went? What time is it in that part of the world? I want to know how many antifa protestors got stomped.

Adding in self-preservation protocols makes sense for something which can't be thrown at the enemy like so much cannonfodder. Although self preservation could also include running away, which is no fun in a video game.

I almost kicked and punched someone into hospital today. Still a bit shaky, even 12h later.
I was biking home, and in front of me biked a girl age, dunno, 15-17?
Suddenly an elderly man jump onto the bicylcle path and starts screaming at the girl that she should stop, and let people cross the street (which is bullshit, because there's no official pedestrian crossing there), and within half a second, the girl didn't even have time to respond or react, this retarded buttfuck punches the girl off her bike in front of the car traffic lane. He like, punched her full in the face, and she went completely flat, stuck under her bike.

I was biking 2m behind her, and saw it happen.
I jumped of my bike and went full kungfu rage on the man. I didn't hit him, I managed to restrain my fists and feet half a millimeter in front of his nose, but damn, it was close. if the rage with which I kicked had hit him I fear I would now have not been typing on this forum, but instead sitting in a cell awaiting manslaughter charges. I luckily was still (barely) in control of myself enough to not hit him, but just give him the scare of his life and chase him off.

Note, it was an elderly man, around age 70, but not a weak elderly. It was like, a 1.90m guy built like someone who has been a marine for most of his life, and had just recently lost the battle between muscle and blubber. But holy fuck, what the bluthering fuck is wrong with people? Why the gutfuck would someone just kick a child off her bike, for no fucking reason at all?
Still mad. Fuck me, I won't let someone beat a child off her bike. I'd do the same next time.
 
I did go to the police and reported the guy for attempted manslaughter. If the oncoming car hadn't hit the brake fully, this girl would have been dead, crushed by a car. Sadly the girl herself fled the scene. Can't blame her. First she gets punched off her bike, then she witnesses a ranting raving hippie assailing her assailant.

What I did learn today is that apparently if I am confronted with a fight/freeze/flee situation, I fight. Good to know.

O.O Geeze man.......
