    Trudeau more unpopular than popular for the first time since election: survey

    As far as gender identity goes, I really don't see why it bothers so many people to the point that it does. So someone wants recognition as trans e.g., and doesn't want to be discriminated for jobs. etc. Is that really that big a deal? 

     

    I don't think anyone cares what a person identifies with. People who were fighting against C-16 weren't fighting for the right to discriminate against others, they were fighting because it's a stupid bill. It's written in a way that even if you don't know someone identifies as something else, and you make the mistake of calling them by the wrong pronoun, you are breaking the law... and even if you figure out what they want to be identified with, well, gender is fluid so they can change their minds the next day and now you're screwed again...

     

    Again, I don't think anyone cares what you want to identify with, just don't leave me alone and I'll leave you alone

    if you google gender and fluidity you'll find lots of human studies. 

    You mean news articles? Can you find an actual scientific study published in a peer reviewed journal ?

    Not only that, but our D pool, which is already pretty shallow, looks downright pitiful without Juolevi.

     

    Also, having Nylander and Laine would have prevented us from landing Lind as well, for what that's worth.

    It doesn't work like that. If we had gotten Laine we probably wouldn't have sucked enough to draft EP.

    Again, show me your magic crystal ball that lets you have unlimited access to multiple universes where things happen slightly differently

    If we had nylander and laine we wouldn't have been drafting high enough to get petterson.

    This is all so obvious a fantasy, and if you can't let me have, then fine, show me a crystal ball that says we couldn't have gotten petterson as well

    I really don't understand the mentality that many have that you're a bust if you haven't made it by the age of 20 or 21.

     

    While many don't believe the "Detroit model" is no longer valid, one only has to look at the two-time reigning Cup champ Penguins and their trio of "rookies" that weren't merely bystanders in their last two Cups but were major factors in both Cup wins.

     

    Matt Murray - 23 years old 

    Bryan Rust - 25 years old

    Jake Guentzel - 22 years old

     

    Virt is still 20 so maybe he's not the problem, but rather people's expectations of what he or other rookies should be at a young age should be tempered.

    Rate The Last Movie You Saw - 2

    Fantastic Beasts and Blah blah

    I rate it out of Fantastic/10 so far (haven't finished)

     

    Just had to pause the movie and share the best line of any movie I've heard in a long time...

     

    (Life threatening situation)

    "Don't panic"

    "What do you suggest I do instead?"

     

     

    That... is truly fantastic....

    As for the whole 112 thing - I really don't think what happened was necessarily anti-town... it provoked some decent reaction, but it did serve to lose all her credibility... if someone like BW was town and saw what was going on, I think he could have figured it out and helped win the game for the TP... it's just with all the claims and back tracking, and a lot of newer players and older less active vets, it's tough to believe...

     

    Ironically, credibility is the reason BW is so strong as town, but much much weaker as mafia...

     

     

    @Kryten we were convinced we had a transporter with that first round kill, not a body guard lol... don't think your role actually even came up as a possibility

     

    @milk and honey I remember one of my first games way back, can't remember who it was, but one townie got lynched in the first round because he was quoting people in the thread, then editing their quotes to say things like "I suck at this game"... everyone thought he was town, but they lynched him anyways cause it was so annoying... lol, lesson learned? You'd better come back when I host next game....

    I claim town MVP.

     

    Town MVP... calls out all the mafia, votes for TP ;)

     

    I want to claim mafia MVP simply because Aladeen was ready to give up and die that last round and I called him out on it - told him to keep fighting and claim an investigation worked...

     

    "no one will believe me tho..."

     

     

    lol
