Won a cultural victory as USA.

Too bad USA can't win a cultural victory as USA.

Boo Belgium.

Hey man, Mcdonalds or Starbucks on every street corner of the world.  If that's not a cultural victory I don't know what is.

I'd consider anything other than a Starbucks on a corner a cultural victory.  $8 for a cup of coffee?  Yeesh.

I might drink Starbucks if they put gold flakes in the coffee for that price.

I wouldn't. Goldschlager is delicious, though.

$8!? that's horrendous

The Starbucks in my country seem to cost no more than $5 for a huge coffee. (I prefer other coffee shops anyway.)

Starbucks is you paying extra for the name on the cup and the hipster cred.   But starbucks lost all their hipster cred probably sometime in the 90s.  So the little imaginary box that used to contain the fedora and glasses is now full of recycling tips.

In the world of moderate owning, I got my first terror mission in new X-Com with the long war mod. The first soldier I move, the first thing she sees is a lineup of four chrysalids. Which made me think that I was doomed, as I'm not actually that good at the game. And yet, due to good shooting and use of grenades, and one very lucky critical hit, every one of the chrysalids is dead by the end of my first turn.

Of course, then I had to deal with the 6 rocket aliens jumping around the map shooting civilians at will. Which I did, but less well.

I'm consistently coming out on top of the body count score when stealth breaks down.  At one point, I actually had my body count at 134.

I do believe this gfy explains it sufficiently.

iRacing, and only 8 cars out of 19 survived that massacre. Managed to pick up the win later in the race by tandem drafting on the outside line with another guy in the back of the 8 man group,

Edit: And Gfycat seems to really want you to name your gfy's by giving them terrible autogenerated names.

Damn, if I didn't read some of your LPs I'd never click on that link.

EDIT: Hehe, that's the kind of game I'd drive the opposite way. Tell me you have done that, it's more fun than the normal game. I know this from old Playstation 1 and N64 racing games. It's funny because those stupid ai bastards just keep going the 'right' way while I'm smashing up their cars and the announcer is yelling like crazy telling me to turn around. That moment of expectation in a Nascar sim when you are closing at 200 mph on a straightaway towards them lasts just about the right amount of time before you smash into them and cars start flying. I'm unsure if it's more fun to be in an invincible car or if it's better played like bowling where you try to wreck all the cars for a strike in your own destructible car. Both play modes have their charm.

It's especially satisfying because there is a Nascar track a short distance from where I live.

Also I think in your clip one of those cars' physics glitched out right at the end and rocketed it into the stands. Good times.

Totally, I'd do that in "Need for Speed 2" and "Monster Truck Madness 2". Of course the maps aren't made for going backwards but I remember trying to cause big pile ups on the narrower sections of the track. Was very fun in MTM2 because that game had a large amount of bounce when you slammed into other trucks and you could send them flying off the edges of the track and into canyons.

Nah the physics didn't glitch out, the guy's ping dropped like crazy. He was intermittently lagging in and out the majority of the race up to that point, ignoring people telling him to get his ass off the track.

Also it's MP only, and being a douche and driving the wrong way is the quick road to an account suspension if not perma-ban.
