    Gun Control

    Is your AR15 a comfy ride in to work? How about it’s hauling potential, was it easy to get that piano in your assault rifle when you moved house? I’ve heard good things about it, do tell!

    -Passed my driving test (age 31, yeah I know :P). -Promoted at work thus earning a relatively respectable wage (she earns more though :P). -Bought a new 4 bed detached house with 'she' who will hopefully be my wife in 2013. -Went skiing again for the first time in 15 years in Feb 2012, and...

    FO3 or FO: NV?

    For me, the Capital Wasteland was a better place to be than New Vegas. In every other aspect though, NV was the better game. Mods really have made Fo3 a great game. Vanilla was average/good and a great dissapointment for me.

    Falklands

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/mar/06/no-one-listen-falkland-islanders?INTCMP=ILCNETTXT3487 A Falkland Islanders opinion on the matter. Everyone has their "100% facts" and "indesputable evidence" about subjects such as this. Including this guy. Everyone has a different...

    Falklands

    *Sighting does not equal claiming. *The evidence that Magellan saw the islands first is tenuous at best. *Argentina isn't Spain and Spain were not involved with a claim to the island until after Britain. (Spain and Portugal agreeing to divy up half the globe without asking anyone else is not...

    Falklands

    The point of that article was to point out the glaring inconsistencies in the Argentine argument. It does this very well. I don't harbour any false illusions as to the authors intentions. The fact is though, he's right. I'm definitely bias but I still think the British argument is stronger.

    Falklands

    No, the UK never renounced it's sovereignty claim. I assume you're referring to the Spanish seizing control of Port Egmont in 1770. Britain threatened war over this so a treaty was drawn up with neither side relinquishing it's sovereignty claim.. The former British colonists then returned within...

    Is it possible?Economic collapse and War's brewing?

    Some of the things Yoshi says strike a chord with me. I'm largely apathetic towards the human race these days to. I love my family and my partner but I dislike the 'self-important ignorance' of the human race in general. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy life and living but I don't harbour any...

    Falklands

    That's some pretty bias argument you've posted Gonzales. That's not neccessarily such a bad thing of course, you're a proud Argentinian after all. The Spanish were Argentinias forebears as you inherited Spains interest in South America when you gained independence. Spain succeeded control...

    Do we argentine have a fame of being racist?

    Dear Leader - has died

    Apologies, got your nickname wrong, Starseeker. I was referring to this and the general subject matter of your post. It came across to me that you were providing us with an education on how the current generation of N.Korean leaders are. Sometimes I read into things other people say a little...

    Your Favourite Fallout game?

    1. Fallout 2 2. Fallout 1 3. Fallout 3 (with a load of mods) 4. New Vegas (because I've only played a few hours) 5. Tactics I'm pretty sure NV will be better than Fo3 once I've played it a bit.

    Dear Leader - has died

    My response was to Starkillers post about 'the West' making assumptions about N.Korea. I'm giving my opinion as to why some individuals might do that. Granted, it's a two way thing. that doesn't have much to do with what I said though.

    Asbestos Religion Thread

    It's a bit far fetched to link atheism to some extreme members of an 'anti-cruelty to animals' organisation. Their Raison D'etre has nothing to do with faith and thus the analogy is misplaced. I'm not sure why you feel the need to say this anyway? No reasonable person condones the acts of...
