    As a christian, should I be offended or amused by this?

    It's been raining here

    I notice you and I seem to have been having "opposite" weather lately
  • i like rain sometimes

    It seems like the Sonic franchise is something that most people grow out of and I haven't

    What are you talking about? You're not even the only adult on this forum who likes Sonic...

    Almost all the time, whenever the franchise comes up, people wax nostalgic about the older 3D games, though the Genesis ones come up from time to time

    They seldom talk about how much fun the new ones are

    Oh...yeah, I've noticed that too.

    I have talked before about how Colors is probably my second or third favorite game in the entire franchise.

    I thought Generations was kinda meh but a lot of people liked it.

  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    I'm watching the Nostalgia Critic from the beginning (way back in the space year 2008). I've forgotten how awful Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue was, and it's even worse now that marijuana is legal in a lot of places.
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    It's a cavalcade of broken Aesops and "do not do this cool thing". It makes FernGully look like a Looney Tunes short.

    good shit

    What was it with the early '90s and beat-you-over-the-head environmental parables? Probably the most subtle thing from that era was the Sonic franchise...

    THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    Earth Day turned 20 in 1990. That's about the only thing I can think of, since it was a big deal at the time.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Oh...

    Is it weird that I don't share in the cryptocurrency obsession? It seems like everyone else finds absolutely everything to do with cryptocurrencies hilarious...
  • No. I find it more sad than anything honestly.

    Some people are more amused by stupidity than others.

    The early Nostalgia Critic episodes are weird, man. They were shot on what looks like VHS or analog 8mm, his jokes aren't quite as sharp, and he really, really likes Lost in Translation for some reason (most likely Scarlett Johanssen's ass :P).
  • I'm neither interested in cryptocurrencies nor interested in laughing at people interested in them.

    If I had a lot of bored-time I might do cryptocurrency stuff...but not without a lot of preparation

    Oh, yeah. Remind me to punish Colorado and some other states. I suppose the rights to the Colorado river would be a harsh enough consequence for defying my will.
  • I kind of want to try marijuana at least once in my life but the smell of the smoke is so nasty...

    never smelled it

    no one ever DESCRIBES the smell either, at least not here

    Also, remind me to remove the silverware rights to Washington. No more cups, bowls, glasses, plates, either.

    And call off Christmas.

  • i think they should just regular marijuana the way theydo cigarettes and alcohol
  • it's sort of like a combination of the two

    it produces local air pollution in the form of smoke that people can smell nearby, and it causes people's mental faculties to do weird things

    In Colorado, you have to be at least 21 to do weed.

    Also, it takes up crudloads of nitrogen and water. Note the water issues in the united states.

    Where the Colorado flows into Mexico, it has one tenth of the water it had before the U.S. settlement happened (yes, the native Americans settled, but I'm referring to the settlement of the not native Americans). The Colorado does not make it to the ocean or sea, it hasn't since 1960, with maybe a couple exceptions.

    Corn has the same problems, but at least is a food and has better yield for area.

    It just seems an extravagance.

    That's because the smell is incredibly distinctive and unique. If I had to pin a specific description to it, it would probably be "oniony".
  • > Also, it takes up crudloads of nitrogen and water.

    You mean to grow it?

    I bet it's chump change compared to the amount of nitrogen and water that people waste just to maintain lawns.

    Pungent, acrid, herbal, almost like fermented oregano but drier, heavier and a lot headier. I do not find it unpleasant, personally, at least not in small amounts, although having a bunch of people smoking it in one cramped room (as is often the case) the scent can be overpowering. Good quality stuff tends to smell at once better and stronger than poorer stuff.

    On the other hand, smoking anything is a potentially very nasty sensation.
  • my nana wants me to visit her in Florida while my mom's recovering from her surgery (I will, otherwise, be home by myself for about two weeks straight).

    I think the difference is that Superman is supposed to not be the person he was in Man of Steel, while Batman has always been a fasho.


    Also Nolan has more street cred than Snyder.
    Well, I'd say that Batman's sufficiently malleable that you could get away with making him fascist.


    You can see some elements of it in his 'let's have contingencies for every member of the Justice League' thing, but it's hardly an element in every incarnation of Batman.

    Yes, Eurasian lawn grasses are inefficient and meant for climates with much more rain and with more nitrogen replenishing factors. But, plant for plant, space for space, pound of soil vs pound of soil, marijuana is more inefficient than corn, which is far more inefficient than lawn grasses. If people had lawns of marijuana instead of grass, it would require much more water and nitrogen.

    Another difference is how much marijuana is grown indoors, which is, in fact, extreme with regards to energy needed vs plant output inefficiency. Lawn Grasses are at least hardy (to temperature and varying sun and humidity) much more than marijuana.

    Grasses of lawns can be left alone, though watered and fertilized, and live, though with weeds and parasites. Marijuana must be Cultivated. At least agriculture produces food

  • I have awful asthma and could never reasonably consider smoking anything.
  • Oh man

    But nothing's more inefficient than corn!

    (except for, well, the entire cattle industry, but we can get into 'the virtues of veganism' later).
  • pretty sure marijuana's grown mostly indoors more because it's illegal than anything else

    Marijuana grown outdoors, if not more inefficient than corn, is at least close. Indoors-grown marijuana is much, much, more inefficient than corn.

    Which would explain why people are growing it in national forests. They're already in trouble, being ecologically conscientious isn't gonna get them any points. Regulation is probably the way to go, as outright complete prohibition doesn't seem to be stopping the black market.
