THE HUMIDITY! OH GOD THE HUMIDITY!
ITS LIKE SWIMMING THROUGH THE AIR
WTF WEATHER

*points* *mocks*

Scrub. Come back yammering when you've spent six months straight like that.

And nah, Aky. It was him being too indirect and trying to get through the company's idiot filter, I think.

Y'know what I'd like to see but hate to be involved with?  A Chenmatch.

I see this glorious image of watching the minimap as two non-mid creep waves come together. Suddenly the waves swap colors and peel off toward midlane, to the sound of much rejoicing.

Yeah... if there's anything the states have taught us, it's that going about trying to implement varying sorts of democracy isn't even remotely sufficient condition for non-monster status, heh. Other things might be, but that certainly isn't.

Okay, first bit: You can still ejaculate, you're just sterile. Your issue is obviously with the latter bit, but don't misrepresent the process in question while you're taking issue with it, yeah?

The bits after that... sure. Properly implemented, though, it wouldn't be state "controlled" in the way you're likely thinking... access and whatnot would be entirely in the hands of the individual -- no vetting process, whatever. By and large you'd have more control over your body than previously, really, because you'd have absolute control over the reproductive process instead of leaving that bit up to varying degrees of physiological chance. At least insofar as the separately stored reproductive material goes.

The actual surgery aspect, sure, be welcome to have issues with. I wouldn't exactly disagree. But state enabled vasectomy, with complementary sperm storage? Sign me the blazes up. That sure as hell isn't being neutered in my book.

Saint patties, well... frankly, there's quite a bit of the American population with some degree of Irish blood (bit more than 1 in 10 claim it, and you better believe the number that don't but have some anyway is higher). They invited friends, it eventually spread out to a more generalized thing.

And honestly, I'm not sure most Americans know anything about it besides "Designated Day of Celebratory Boozing and Light Assault on People Not Wearing Green."

... I know I don't. Hear yeh about missing more excuses to take a day off work/school, though.

And then world peace was achieved because nobody can figure out who they're at war with any more.

Naaah. Eventually someone wins and it becomes the USUSUSA. United States of United States of USAs. And then things go extrasolar and thousands of years down the line it finally ends with the formation of the USUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSUSA (which I'll kindly refrain from spelling out), with sovereignty over the several of the nearby galactic clusters.

Which they promptly rename because who the hell actually wants to use something like that as a self-descriptor? Seriously, tens of thousands of years of technological progress and the greatest advancements of humanity our existence has yet to see, and no one bothered to rechristen the damn thing something sensible? "Busy" only excuses so much

Just you wait. Eventually it'll be the United states of United states of the Americas vs. the United states of United states of Asia vs. United states of United states of Africa vs. United states of United states of the Antarctic. USUSA vs USUSA vs USUSA vs USUSA. Because the previous centennial "War of the Thousand USAs and an USA" was not sufficient for the history books.

I didn't get past the part about Voldemort being the trinity before my brain died.

Kinda' belated response, but I can actually see that, especially post resurrection. Bone of the father, is the son, was a spirit. Is rockin' the trinity a bit with that, sure.
