New Shrine image is one built with the corpse of an Eldrazi in a desecrated valley or cave.

I heard it's the corpse of the ashaya that nissa summons
September 3, 2015 2:20 p.m.
It makes more sense as an Eldrazi corpse than Ashaya's remains. Ashaya was never worshipped as a God, but the Eldrazi were.

So I woke up and got on Facebook this morning, and happened upon the Creepypasta page, and learned of the most terrifying thing I will ever encounter.
Have any of you had sleep paralysis before?

It's not just the TO community. There is a rising salt level in a lot of the online games that I play or that I see other people playing, e.g League of Legends, TF2, Call of Duty/Battlefield, etc.

Hey man i refuse to feel salty. I will be your oasis of nonsalt in this sea of salt. I can't afford those new lands. Good! I have what i need and I'll play with what i can get. No good vampires spoiled yet. Fine with me. I'll play allies. New drazi are different. Great! Let's have some fun in standard.
Life is not perfect but screw it guys. It's 2015 and we have more reasons to be happy than salty

She is featured in my FF team this year. I hope she at least makes a go of it. It is going to be entertaining if nothing else. I don't have any hopes for anyone in the running. It is all just a joke, which is really sad.

i have a fuckton of old pikachus. The one with yellow cheeks and a purple backgound (says 58/102 but no set symbol) and some others that i can't price. The one place i looked said these bitches were $5 apiece x.x

The worst part about HC running is I KNOW that I'm going to get hit by "You're a sexist if you don't vote for Hillary!!!" and the first person that does it is going to get my boot up their ass so far that their breath will smell like foot odor for a month.
The democratic party did it with Obama ("You're a racist if you don't vote for obama!") so I have no doubt that they will try it with Hillary.

Ohthenoises I legit believe the only winning move is not to play.
Annon: "Who're voting for"
Me: "no one"
Annon: "why don't you vote bro are you even American?"
Me: "I don't like deciding which turd is shiniest"

TBH I'm voting for bernie because he's the most down to earth, NORMAL, person that is running.
Also, that damn campaign slogan..... It's literally #feelthebern. His PR department gets a raise for that alone.

Anybody into action flicks? I've been watching all the Jason Statham films lately. Homefront being my favorite of the bunch. Transporter 1-3 were dope too.
I liked Taken 1 & 2, didn't care for Taken 3.
Liked John Wick, in fact it's the best movie I've seen in a while. Anybody know any really sweet action flicks

VampireArmy You want something negative about bernie? He's a hardcore socialist, like WAY more than I'd like. However, he's going after the large corperations for now which is fine with me.
Another negative is probably the most damning. His fact checkers need work. It's nothing too major but when he gives a statistic like "20% of magic players are rich assholes" he's usually off by a bit, like the real number is 22% or something like that. It's gonna bite him in the ass.

Ohthenoises This could be a positive thing anyways in some eyes. I've had long conversations about socialism and how the US could use it. Yeah maybe I oughta look into him honestly

I like comedy but havent seen anything good lately. Last funny film I saw was Get Hard and it was rather meh...
Been thinking about ordering Hot Pursuit though. What have you seen that's good?

Apple, Mad max I liked, there was lots of action.
Noises. The US system has me completely disenfranchised. Two sides of the same coin. The parties decide who will run, and so we have people picking the president for us. There really is no choice, and no way for a true voice of the people. This is set up on purpose, and for that reason.
I have looked at Bernie a little bit, and he is not too bad. He will not be president if he is not in the game to play ball.

So yesterday at work I caught a salamander, and today I caught a rather noisy toad. Guess they're really digging this 90 and humid weather

ThisIsBullshit, up in Maine I regularly catch very big toads (2+in wide) so my dog doesn't lick them. Not eat them.
She loves licking toads and chases them around at night trying to get a taste of toad. It's almost comical sometimes.

I'm not really following elections since I'm French, but can someone tell me why are some people wanting to see Trump as president? Even Deez nuts has a better program. If this racist idiot makes it to the White House, I'll be happy to invite the some people from T/O that do not like him to come here in France :P
In France, we heard about Bernie Sanders, and I have to admit that even if I haven't read what he wants to do (exepted on the fact that in the USA he is categorized as a socialist, which reminded me how strange it is for words to have a little bit different meaning from one side or another of the ocean), I found his approach really interesting. In my opinion, his approach is a more serious (and democratic) one that relying on lobbies that will influence the candidate.
The French system and and the American one are definitively pretty different from one another, to say x)

Because people are becoming more disillusioned with politicians, so why not a rich businessman that basically everyone knows? And even though he's vulgar, bullheaded, and condescending, people like the fact that he gets the candidates talking about the "real issues."
September 4, 2015 10:43 a.m.
elpokitolama says... #50
Talking about real issues is meaningless if the best he can do is finding fake answers. He's not just vulgar: he's racist, sexist, and don't give a damn about anything but him... Having so much influence while being so hateful and narcisic is dangerous. :(
