Falconry glove. Basically a big leather glove so that a bird of prey can sit on your hand without destroying your hand.

I’m guessing a translation is something like, “We have absolutely no idea how we might argue this is okay in defiance of literally every court decision on this in history, so we’re just going to hope they don’t escalate.”

I see you never watched Farscape and its BDSM space muppets.

On Ubuntu’s old Unity DE that top panel housed app menus and merged with maximized windows. And you could tap a button to search those menus. I wish they would reimplement those features.

Well, sometimes they denote different people. They also sometimes represent recurring characters.

Beret Guy, Black Hat, and Danish are the same character each time.

At the other end of the spectrum, Ponytail and White Hat are just whoever the comic needs at the time. Sometimes they show signs they’re a recurring character, but usually probably just a one-off.

In the middle of the spectrum are Cueball and Megan. These are the generic male and female designs and the most frequently seen. They’re usually probably just one-offs, but both have two distinct recurring roles as well. The first is Cueball as an unnamed male character and Megan as Megan, with the two of them being a couple. The second is Cueball as the comic’s author and Megan as his wife, with this being most apparent in the cancer strips.

I would go with an old money family rather than yakuza. The yakuza, and organized crime families in general, like to keep their community help programs out in the open so the locals don’t feel inclined to help the police against them. For example, the yakuza have a history of disaster relief and Al Capone ran a soup kitchen.

I liked the plot, but the gameplay was in desperate need of an overhaul.

Also, if you’re trying to explore and finish up side quests on disc 3, but you accidentally clip Lunatic Pandora on the world map, it puts you into a linear sequence that runs all the way through to the end of disc 4 and the game with no ‘press X to enter this location’ prompt or warning that this is a point of no return.

But I did really like the story. If anyone has a mod suggestion for something that makes the junction system not be absurdly broken I’d be interested.

Well, it depends, really. What is he smoking?

No, you’re thinking of Sprite, specifically the bottle caps.

Ultimately, the rules work fine for what they were intended to do, which is prevent one branch of government from becoming much more powerful than the other two. However, they don’t work well against an entity like the Republican Party, which deliberately subverts multiple branches simultaneously. The rules against executive power have also been weakened over time due to congress ceding power to the president, something the founders hadn’t anticipated. They were prepared for greedy bastards that wanted to hoard power, but people giving power away to reduce their own responsibilities or achieve partisan goals was something they hadn’t even heard of.

Connery’s character is Lithuanian.

Oh, I know how that one happened. A rooster is also called a cock, though we don’t much use that word anymore, for obvious reasons. Probably didn’t know the word and checked Google Translate or something similar.

*Star Trek: The Motion Picture intensifies*

I remembering having a crush on Hermione. Emma Watson was also older than me, though, and I remember thinking that adults perving on her was gross.

He never retired, he just became irrelevant.

Hang on, I think I’ve seen this episode of, uh, everything.

It’s also how marriages worked in Europe for anyone who wasn’t a noble for centuries.

I think a bunch of people on here genuinely don’t know how to spell the word.

His character is actually Lithuanian, so he shouldn’t have a Russian accent. Not that Scottish is accurate…

Ironically, pre-sugared cereal may have also reduced the amount of sugar in kids’ cereal. For a while, kids were taking regular cereal and dumping sugar on it. Instead of actually parenting and telling them no, the parents started buying sugary cereal.
