Percy Jackson cosplay videos are the best cosplay videos. "Never Have I Ever with Nico and Annabeth" is just perfection.

Annabeth: We were told we should do this together because we like the same... things.
Nico: *Looks at the camera*

"In the meantime, no one should roam the camp alone. Use the buddy system."
"Understood." Will looked at Nico. "Will you be my buddy?"
"You're a dork," Nico announced.

I have the final countdown stuck in my head.
The fastest way to a man's heart- Or anyone's, in fact- Is to tear a hole through their chest.

Mafia post should be up before long.

When the game is over, I plan on doing a recap of the special roles' actions and the clues, so be sure not to miss that.

*shrugs* I found it gross, but I don't care much what happens to the carcass of a rodent. It wasn't worth his being likened to a sociopath. There are many worse things done to living animals and humans that I'd prefer to get upset over. We choose our battles.

I remember my dad once finding a dead mole while mowing, so he picked it up by a gloved hand and tried to throw it over the fence and into the woods, but my dog decided it was a game of fetch. I was ten or eleven then and found it hilarious. We didn't want a mess, though, so the mole became insect food in the woods. I don't know about other states, but there are so many moles around here that break water lines and destabilize the concrete underneath houses that just about everyone has mole traps in their yard. The traps circle around a mole tunnel, and when a mole passes through the tunnels and triggers it, they get speared right through. It's a routine thing to be told to go check the mole traps.

Guess it depends where you grew up to. People who grew up in a rural area or on a farm are more accustomed to seeing dead animals. So the site of one may not be particularly disturbing. People from cities, who may not see a dead animal to often, might be traumatized from seeing one...

@Grond: Yeah, what you said makes sense, but the reason everyone went into an uproar is because the member in question ran it a dead mole over with a lawnmower. Five times. For fun.

Yeah, I don't understand the uproar, it sounds like boyish behavior to me. It was a dead mole, key word being dead.

Of course I'm the guy that shoots live ground squirrels with a pellet gun for fun so... A difference in perspectives I suppose.  ;)

Y'know what I'm not gonna bother.

I must trigger so many people on this forum. ;D

^haha

Most times, like with the recent convo about vaccines, I wasn't trying to trigger anything or argue a specific side/change any minds. I was telling a story. I don't really care what choices others make in that area as long as they think their decision through. For themselves. Haha that goes for about everything, really. Those choices probably won't affect me.

Hm, I don't think I've ever been on a farm. I'm from the burbs. More people get shot than animals do.

Aaah, if only I had a pellet gun. I'd shoot the stupid neighbor's cat that keeps using our yard as a litterbox.
Just pretend there is something interesting and unique written here... I have nothing to say.
