Reread the comment above you, because they are claiming the opposite of what you're thinking

GOOD LUCK! YOU'LL NEED IT!

I think the difference between our positions is that I believe pointing a loaded weapon at someone should be considered as intending to kill that person, at least until evidence and circumstance can determine otherwise. Because aiming a weapon at someone is more than just a threat that you will use it against then, it is taking physical action to prepare to use it against them.

I also love some pineapple on pizza, but a plain cheese pizza is my favorite

Yeah, Polish currency looks pretty dope

If someone got shot, the rest of it is sort of moot, isn't it? Responding to trespassers by pulling out a gun is insane to begin with, if the trespassers aren't doing anything else to imply a threat. Blocking the trespassers from leaving the property is bad enough, but to then threaten then with a gun is horrendous in its own right. Pointing that gun at them is insane unless he intended to shoot them.

If he was shooting targets for practice and had a lapse of judgement and accidentally shot someone, sure, that is a different situation. If you knowingly and intentionally point a gun at someone and "accidentally" shoot them, I don't see how that is any different than intentionally shooting them, other than the timing of when you pull the trigger.

Final Fantasy XIV has tons of them as well, especially in the side quests and FATEs. The localization teams do a stellar job sprinkling all sorts of references and nods to pop culture.

I disagree with that. Content creators need to adapt to survive with the modern algorithms. Those algorithms are trash and the censorship behind it can eat a fat one, but the creators are just trying to get paid.

Now, bringing that self-censorship into real life, into casual conversation with friends, off of platforms that are monetized... that is what annoys me. Not because they are difficult to read, that's just an evolution of slang, but because it muddies the language and weakens our ability to communicate. "Unalive" instead of suicide or killed makes it seem less serious, less graphic, at least to me. And that's the whole point of why they are using replacements in monetized content, because it is safer, but sometimes language needs to be harsher.

I'm not saying it's necessary, just explaining what it was for

Correct! Modern guns are safer to store in the microwave! Be sure to set it to power level 60% for 5 minutes to properly remove any gunpowder residue after you finish using it for the day.

The 30 seconds is a buffer between entering the space and spinning, so it doesn't catch you running up. Like if it starts recording as you enter the room, how do you know when it started/stopped recording

Dixit is one of my favorites, and very fun to play with a group of people you know well. Sort of like Pictionary with cards instead of drawing, but you try to only get one person to guess correctly.

Small World was my introduction into alternative board games, and still one of my favorites to help introduce new board games to people who have only played Monopoly.
