Btw, how long have you had work? And what do you do? I remember you posting about being unemployed a while ago, good to hear you got a job

Game testing again, since late July. I didn't want to go back to game testing, but I needed a job. At the very least, they're being extremely flexible with my upcoming school schedule, and letting me take two days off a week for classes. It pays crap, but it's better than sitting in a drive thru window all day.

I never said that. I own guns. I just think deterrence is a foolish argument.

Okay, I do agree to a certain extent that it is a deterrence of criminal activity, but if my home is being invaded, I'd like to have a 9.

I honestly think my previous statement is the most relevant argument. I do not want our government being the only people with guns.

Re: ................

You're the second person that has said that to me. I guess they are fairly well known for a Japanese band... there's like no information on them out there, though. It seems like a lot of people think they're all still together.

Walrus? I've actually heard of those guys before...

Re: ................

I know, I'm just a shithead sometimes. I don't have a gun. I don't like guns. I am a pretty decent shot, though, strangely enough.

I'm listening to my boss's former band. He came over from Japan a few years ago, and I guess over there he's pretty well known. They're not bad, actually. Japanese shoegaze. But it is kind of weird. I'd known him for a couple of months before actually listening to his band. So... knowing the person and then hearing the music... it's just a weird experience. I'm sure some of you have experienced the same in some way. They're called Walrus. He was the singer/guitarist. He asked me not to listen to it.

"I can't do that, Anton. I'm sorry."
"Why?"
"Cause it's either good and I want to hear it or it's bad and I need to hear it so I can make fun of you."
"Oh, bitch!"

Re: ................

Eight killed today in California. Thank God so many are armed, or else many more would have been killed. Deterrence works!

You're right. Nevermind, ban the guns, people.

Re: ................

America has hyper-masculinity, as opposed to Canada. Guns are a rather phallic representation....

Re: ................

Well, I guess only an extra couple 1000 murders a year is a price worth paying then.

Comparing numbers of murders is ridiculous. Percentage would be a better measurement (not that I'm saying it would be any better).

Also, it's not a gun thing, it's an American thing. Look at the accessibility to guns in Canada relative to the number of murders there. I'll give you a hint: It's just as easy, but they have far fewer.

Ok, good point. I guess it helped to take out Kennedy at least. Screw the government.
