I think you’re the first person I’ve seen correctly attribute this to the New Yorker instead of a 4chan green text or copy pasta.

I’ve been seriously considering picking up a trumpet and starting a ska band with some of my other middle aged friends just for shits and giggles. Seems like a lot of fun.

That was the beginning of the end for me. I think by the time I got to that part the series had already been going downhill but I remember that being a really sharp turning point.

I tried to press on a little further. The introduction of the straw man nation with the innocent child king who’s only existence was to be blown the fuck out by the brilliance of objectivism is when I finally decided I just couldn’t go on.

Ooo, I was trying to think of what to answer in this thread and you just reminded me of another Orson Scott Card book, Empire.

Absolute trash. Prior to that I had read all of the Ender and Bean series and loved them. Didn’t know much about Card personally, but picked up this book because it was supposed to be tied in with a video game I was looking forward too.

Reading this book is how I found out what a shitty person he really is. It was basically all him hitting you over the head with his shitty fascist ideology while jerking off to a bunch of military porn like a dollar store version of Tom Clancy. I never did play the game.

Lately I google for someone that should give me a direct, exact result. First five links are fucking paid ads.

You’re thinking of American Samoa which is different from the Independent State of Samoa, formerly known as Western Samoa and a sovereign nation.

I always made sure I had Thomas guide book for any areas I went through in my car.

You are correct.

For anyone else unaware, the schtick of the account was they’d always rate dogs with ratings of x/10 with x always being greater than 10. It was pretty funny how often people would get upset over this.

They actually have a fairly comprehensive training program setup through their “University.” They also mix in foreign contractors, usually from China.

My dad cracked three ribs while surfing in his 20s. He caught a wave much larger than normal, fell off his board near the top and landed flat on his back.

My sister actually gave my daughter this book when she was young. I thought it was good stuff.

I almost did before the outage. Their pay was pretty low compared to similar positions at other companies though.

They’re about raising the sarcophagus. Those things can be heavy.

Magic carpet 2, the Netherworlds is one I played a ton and think of from time to time. I wonder what I modern remake would be like.

It’s the first game I remember playing with deformable terrain.
