He really looks like a turtle now, but in this pic when he’s young I’m seeing a bit of rattlesnake mixed in there too.He has always been a turtle.

Holy shit. I'd make a thread about this but we all know where that'd go.

Brazil jail riot in Para state leaves 52 dead as gangs fight
Prison riot in Brazil leaves 16 inmates decapitated
I remember that show being really big at the time.
I think a problem with a lot of these shows is that their premise is really strong but when they catch on they have to stretch things out so that even if they had an ending in mind they have to pad the whole thing out to deliver season after season and eventually somewhere along the way they go off the rails. When I hear a show has any more then like four seasons I already get reluctant to watch it.
Where would it go? Brazilian prisons are notoriously fucked up, as are the conditions that lead so many there. Are people not allowed to point out the obvious, without getting labeled "racist" now?. Brazilian slum life is shit. Brazilian prison life is even shittier.
The way things have been going lately?
I don't know maybe skull sizes, that sort of thing.
I agree. As I said before that is one advantage if ind with anime. Even if the series goes to shit in the end if its only 24 episodes its not quite as much time invested down the drain.This is also why I find limited/ one season series are great. They know the story they want to tell and aren't restrained from doing so in many ways a popular multi-season series is.

‘I live here: “Wessex” is my name:
I am a dog known rather well:
I guard the house but how that came
To be my whim I cannot tell.
‘With a leap and a heart elate I go
At the end of an hour’s expectancy
To take a walk of a mile or so
With the folk I let live here with me.
‘Along the path, amid the grass
I sniff, and find out rarest smells
For rolling over as I pass
The open fields toward the dells.
‘No doubt I shall always cross this sill,
And turn the corner, and stand steady,
Gazing back for my Mistress till
She reaches where I have run already,
‘And that this meadow with its brook,
And bulrush, even as it appears
As I plunge by with hasty look,
Will stay the same a thousand years.’
Thus ‘Wessex.’ But a dubious ray
At times informs his steadfast eye,
Just for a trice, as though to say,
‘Yet, will this pass, and pass shall I?’

I support you, good sir. We will get through this.Last post before I go.
The reason I was given double yellows was BS. Been on my best behavior for 28 days, and got trolled into a flaming response.
No yellow for the trolling, which no one ever gets when I report it, but insure as shit got added points for the flaming.
It's all fun and games until you try and be on your best behavior, and it doesn't matter because the rules are not equally enforced.
People don't get in trouble for trolling, but get on a mods bad side, and get every rule held to the letter against you.
Of I fuck up, I own it.
When I was approached by a mod about hints of violence in my posting, I saw where the mod was coming from, and despite having plausible deniability in hints of violence, i still take responsibility for that, and understand why I was getting extra attention. No victim on that.
What is going on right now, is not that. i was given my first double yellows for a post a year old, and now just got points for responding to trolling with flaming, with no punishment for the trolling party.
I think you're jumping to conclusions, based on your own delusional interpretations on how this forum operates.
When you're more worried about the potential racism being spouted, over anything else, in a thread that involves mass decapitations in a foreign prison, I'd say you might want to take a step back and evaluate your thought process.
Nope, I think I'm good.
Most insane people think they're good too, so that doesn't say too much.
I dare you to create that thread.
Wow you're corny as hell.
So is that a "no" on the thread, because you've already predetermined that the imaginary alt-right will show up and start calling Brazilian psychos a lower form of human?
Why don't you make the thread yourself and prove him wrong?So is that a "no" on the thread, because you've already predetermined that the imaginary alt-right will show up and start calling Brazilian psychos a lower form of human?

Personally I don't think it would be that bad. If it took place in Mexico that'd be another story but Brazil and Brazilians aren't scapegoats in the US like Central America is. Also since this is an MMA forum I think there would be a slight unconscious bias in favor of Brazil since we're more likely to associate the country with some of our favorite fighters.
