War Room Longue V. 73: Royal Rumble

EGarret? Now you're just making shit up about me. I've barely interacted with guy except during very short tantrums of his in here. Compare that, if you will, to years of it being nonstop (and one-sided).

Go ahead, I'll wait. Let the difference sink in. And "subjective" my ass, it's already in the rules, you idiot. You couldn't possibly have a clearer case of harassment. I should remind you yet again, this isn't the OT.

Also, who gives a shit if I joked that a banned poster told me a story about molesting a person? You had to go way off the reservation for that one. Thinnest cards in history, and naturally I have a comparison there, where you didn't do a fucking thing about people going after family: Homer. So suck it on that one, too.

Also, Ripskater was the most obvious troll account in the history of the forum.

But do go on digging. It ain't my e-grave. You're a good ol' boys' club noob, and spineless.

He basically daring you to ban him, @Lead. Wow.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

@Lead and all mods clean up on aisle 4!!

I think that some further discussion would be good, like pointing out what is a hard loss and the differences between friendly ball-busting type stuff and genuinely not being nice. Let's marinate on it a little. It's going to be very expensive to play, and it's a long sig punishment.

Didn't I say the sliding would be inevitable and subtle. You are a part of The Nexus Mr. Fawlty accept it's beauty inside your wonderful body...

So who owned this lib troll so hard he had to suicide?

 

[ObamaPhoneLady]

Historically speaking, a pretty weak esuicide, but he was a pretty weak troll, so I guess is normal.

 

[Gutter Chris]

How about yourself?

I like the magwell and the colors

I dont own anything super fancy. Few rifles a shotgun and a few pistols. Nothing super tricked out

But this is probably the top gun on my wish list though I dont know if ill ever have it they have become very pricey. My dream rifle is a .308 galil . I just love the look of those things.

Im thinking about getting an oracle or an m and p sport this year for christmas. I never really liked ars but I think its time I cure myself of that. I figure get a cheap model beat it up and learn everything I can about it and if it grows on me if figured id ask you about how to make a cool one.

I like the look of the old carry handle sight more than the flat top , but you can put all the cool shit on it if you get a modern one with the flat rails. All I would really want on mine is an acog or a red dot or something though. I dont like the extra grips and flashlights and what not

 

[Falsedawn]

I love those "natural hair" threads because there's always some dumbass equating cornrows to piercings and foot wide ear gauges and shit. Like damn, what goofy ass mayberry society did you come from? I want to douse them with smelling salts.

Cornrows aren't a natural hairstyle. They're an attempt to tame the natural hairstyle.

I dont understand how braids arent professional but I dont get why tats and piercings upset people either. If you are look clean and got on an outfit that doesnt look slept in it should be all good ya know . People really like to have social control of other people and to force them to conform to their norms. I find it weird

That's for sure a sweet looking rifle and can see how it could be the apple of an eye. If someone said an AUG who could argue that? So many great rifle designs, while pistols are far more homogeneous.

I bought an AR when first getting into guns because it seemed like a base to cover in my desire to explore the interest in firearms. It was a basic model like you pictured, except a left-hand variant. Something about it in person just captured the imagination. So maybe you'll get into 'em more when you've got your own.

There's nothing more rewarding than assembling your own, and any monkey with some basic tools can do it. But you're right to get familiar with the platform before going down the rabbit hole. For just defending your home, the most basic shit is gonna work. After that it's all fine-tuning the comfort and aesthetic.

Here's one that's like the 1911. When you know what it is and does then it doesn't get more cool.

Natural hair style. Styles for that type of hair without perming it. By your definition the only protected style would be a 70's afro.

 

[Falsedawn]

They're a protective hairstyle, that ensures the health of that natural hair.

I assume you don't have a curl grade? Curly hair is more susceptible to dryness and breakage when not protected. It's why silk caps and doo rags exist. While it also looks good, it's also a necessary step for some people. If you have a 3c or 4a grade, it's can be the difference between thick hair and premature baldness.

People always gotta be in everyone else's business. It's a virus.

Sounds like "natural" is the wrong word. Instead it should be "commonly preferred".

 

[Falsedawn]

Natural refers to texture. It's a style that doesn't change the texture of the hair with chemicals or treatments.

It's kind of a necessary delineation when your natural hair texture has historically been disfavored by white america.

 

[Gutter Chris]

Is that a barret ? Or is that a long distance rifle you made that looks like a barret? The angle is throwing me off and I cant tell exactly how big that mag is

"Natural hair" style not "natural" hairstyle.

Weave seems a lot grosser to me than any natural hairstyle I can think of. I do not understand it . When I see chicks at walmart doing the pat pat pat itch it always makes me feel bad for them

Yeah. So?

Hence the focus on natural hairstyles in the workplace.

You see it in that thread. People see a burst fade as "unkempt" as if the hair growing up is inherently more bad than the hair growing down. So black women are hit particularly hard because a kinky hairstyle will seem "unkempt" to people whose ideal is long and straight. That's why weave got so big.

Luckily we're seeing a reversal of these policies as more people are making noise, so it's getting better.
