I was gonna ask you to bite the bullet and do a food review, but it seems that the article thoughtfully anticipated that and included some.

It was boring and straightforward - the only reason to patronize this restaurant over others is its atmosphere of fawning jingoism and political backbiting.

Semi-automatic is a specific type of action where after firing, the bolt removes the spent case and chambers the next round without further manual input from the operator as would be required in lever actions, bolt actions, etc.

Well, semi-automatic also interrupts the action so it only gives one shot per trigger pull, versus burst mechanisms or fully automatic.

So as for what is not a semi-automatic? Any gun requiring manual operation to clear the spent case and chamber a new round or can fire more than one round per trigger pull.

I’d dispute that. Single action is a specific type of system.

Guns… are specifically dedigned to kill people

Damn, dude! Better not learn about HEMA or fencing. Shit may give you an aneurism.

My fellow Americans, ‘CPS’ here refersto the ‘Crown Prosecution Service’ and does not necessarily implicate the Tates of that more evil crime associated with Child Protective Services.

The more you know. ~☆

The eternal battle of fairness and ability, i suppose… But I wanna know what your issues with Ocasio-Cortez are. It’s a rare sort that cops to that in these parts.

Nope, she delivered a party-like reply.

But you’re probably right.

See, here’s where I disagree:

Unless there is a clarifying statement about his ass-backward mentality following the dedication, the snark will be lost to time and only the “generous donation” will remain.

I have a similar (if smaller) beef with Carnegie libraries that are just PR washing of an oligarch. His crimes are remembered in spite of his donations only because he was memorable outside of them.

The policy on preservation of natural areas was not terrible. It was probably executed poorly and wasn’t intended to be anything but a bludgeon of the state to displace people, but nature preservation as a concept is a necessity.

The morlocks, you mean?

Absolutely not. What they were looking to get is some CYA documents in case they became disposable.

While usually reserved for people of great importance (aristocracy et al.), it’s viable here. They puffed him up a bit, but the guy’s dead so, w/e.

I saw the picture and thought “Blazing Saddles”! Now I’m even sadder that I live in a farce country.

I was under the impression that it was a bit more gradual than a “full-scale invasion” right off the bat. Am I wrong? Or is “full-scale” a technical term?

The rat is trying to convince us it is the captain.

Yes, my name is now Christian. By refusing to pay tithe to me, you are perpetuating anti-Christian bias.

Nah, I see this plan not as paying people for kids, but subsidizing the quiverful and other “women are broodmares” sorts at the expense of the whole population. Because that’s already his base, and more money means more speech in America.

Damn. We gotta close the missile gap eith the six-year-olds.

It’s true! When it’s dark out it isn’t because there’s no light, but because you’re trapped in the void!

Have you seen the state of the IT industry? Furries and trans girls all of them. Your acronym is entirely appropriate.
