The problems is that I don't really like water. I've never liked water, unless I am very, very thirsty.
Just... just gotta' find the right water, man. Not all water is distributed equally. Keep trying until you find the right kind.

I never understood how people can say they don't like water.
I mean... it's water. It's the liquid for drinking.
Depends on the water! I like a lot of different sorts of water, but 2/3rds of the places I've lived for any period of time has had tap water that made me sick at the worst, and just didn't taste very good at the best. When you find the good stuff, though... it's good.

I don't like water. It's a nonentity. If I wanted to drink flavorlessness, I'll drink water. Generally I prefer to drink something that tastes like literally anything but nothing.
The best water... it's not just flavorless, man. It's got a flavor that's, like... conceptual. It tastes like purity or cold or some shit like that. It is imbibing a feeling as much as it is a liquid. Other drinks are their own thing, but really good water is just... sublime. The best water is genuinely the best of drinks. S'just something to it I can't really quantify in words.

So, uh. Is the ATF(&E?) like disbanded or something in missouri? How's that working out? I'd figure the F part would at least be kinda' having problems functioning in a state where their job is apparently criminalized...  looks like there's a few other states trying that, too.

Most Cheese Curds are just square blocks of cheese and not actually "Curds".

As for Gravy it also depends on what type of Gravy Frumple. Remember every meat has its own gravy. Even, oddly enough, fish.
Not just meats! There's various sorts of vegetable gravy, too. I... I want to say I've had potato gravy before, with it turning out goodly, but I could be misremembering. But yeah, you can have gravy without needing meats. Gravy for everyone!

... and gravy goes fine on fries. Good, even, though I'm not really that fond of gravy. Not so sure about cheese curd, because... I don't think I've ever ate it.  Something about eating a thing called curd... curdles my appetite. But cheese and gravy on fries? Sure, I'd eat that. Have ate them both apart, no reason not to combine. I don't think they'd explode under normal circumstances, and combustion is my primary combination filter.

"Will it ignite if I mix it? No? Let's give it a go, then!"

We have 6 person chess, your chess is inferior.
... how does six person chess work? I'm currently imagining a chessboard with 6* the number of squares and pieces and... I guess six different colors? Turns go, what, clockwise from white?

Incidentally, simultaneous turn chess? Someone has to have done a chess program that does that. Players make their moves, submit turn, it acts out. Probably have to muck with the rules a fair bit to get things to work, but... whatever.

Guess something more explicit than "strike off the dragon disciple part" is warranted, heh. So, giving it another go? Still interested enough, providing multiplayer manages to work. Incidentally, should the community expansion pack whatsit be downloaded/set up beforehand? Anything else along those lines to prepare on our end?

The relevant bits.
That... that last line...

... I bet there's a hell of a lot of people that wishes they could fuck up their job and not get fired (or thrown in jail, considering the apparent screwups), just because their department's underfunded.

If I ever end up a corrupt m'fucker, I'll have to remember that line. "We're underfunded, reprimanding folks that royally screw up isn't going to help with that any, so there's no point in bothering, right?" Swear to Zeus, just saying something like that probably net you jail time or somethin'. Not even sure if it matters if you did something. Line like that means you probably will, or did, or should probably spend some time away from people and think on your mistakes or... something.

Not nearly amusing as autophage, uh. -ation. Though I think you can only do that on higher difficulties now or something. Still. When you don't have instakill immunity, you can swallow yourself. And if you're below the instakill threshold... it can. Swallow yourself. It's right up there with the whole yeek-devours-greater-multihued-wyrm thing. And consuming time Elementals. And ghosts.

Never been quite sure how to imagine the scene, but I can't only guess it ends with a *poink* and one of those little * things hanging in the air for a few seconds.

Lies! .27% of the population -- in raw numbers, over half a million or a bit over six hundred thousand -- in America spoke Portuguese in 2007. The number's likely higher now. The neat thing is that it was apparently the second most spoken language in Massachusetts at one point. So it's somewhat important in Massachusetts! Does Massachusetts actually have any appreciable effect on US politics?

An'there's always the whole visitation rights thing. Or the ineligibility to donate blood in some places. And the places that prohibit adoption. There's more junk like that if you go digging.

So, yeah. There's a non-negligable part of the USA that are specifically and legally discriminating against homosexual couples in ways outside of financial incentives. And similar stuff exists in plenty of other countries.

Nah, sledgehammer's too big. Everyone knows if you're using something that big, it's no longer dentistry. Maybe a mugging, but not dentistry. Gotta' have precision tools for working with teeth. Now, a ball-peen hammer or maybe a chisel or something, that'd be okay.

I'd love to join you, but shit, I don't own a pair of pliers. That's a hell of a steep barrier to entry.
Don't need no pliers man, just need some string and a good yank. Could probably use shoestrings or sumthin'. They can provide. No shoestrings, no service.

After the first couple bleed out in the alley, you can take their shoes and set up in a different, less blood stained alley and have all the materials you need.

It doesn't mean much if she's bad or a waffle on everything else. I wouldn't vote for someone who wants to make Wall Street accountable but also thinks the US should be a Christian state, for example.
:/

For all the good the first amendment is supposed to serve .-.

What are the odds of a non-christian president ever being elected to office within the next 5 decades?
There's a hell of a difference between de facto and de jure in this case, though, and it's damn arguable that it's even one de facto. America's never really been run by Christian values, no matter how hard some of the nutjobs try to spout it. We've pretty much always been about the greenbacks, with a side order of idealized individualism and a smattering of other stuff. Yeah, Christian ideology isn't exactly influent-less, but we're a hell of a long way from a Christian state. By and large we've managed a pretty good (far from ideal, sure, but we've seen how it can be worse via the nutjobs) separation between church and state in action, if not always in rhetoric.

Lot of folks in this joint claim to be Christian but outside some monkeysphere/good-old-boy stuff related to church affiliation it's just something they do on Sundays.
