    i'm unsure how 'names of spies' could possibly not be 'classified at the time'. In fact, how on earth could a piece of information be classified after it was generated? Can you even provide a single example of how that could work at all? If something is not OK for the public to know, then...

    I'm on mobile so I can't really do this justice but 'Your honor, you will notice that I had encountered red lights 50,000 times in my life and ran them only 100 times, an infinitely small fraction of the time, so why are you taking my license?' Doesn't really work that way. As to the rest...
  3. Metagame NP: RU Stage 17: Try Again / Do It Again (Shaymin and Slurpuff banned, Tangrowth up to OU)

    I'm on mobile and will be for some time, here's my argument though: Thing is, both of those have the potential to do like 35 on the switch-in, which is my big gripe with Lix : you get 1 opportunity before you're 2hkoed if the opponent plays well, and from there you are an offensive threat too...

    the ppl itt claiming clinton is lying will just point out that Clinton once claimed to be shot at by bosnian fucking snipers. all of the lies that Hillary Clinton tells, and this is key, are not even political lies. Yes, all politicians lie, but they usually do so in a predictable manner (i.e...

    edit: OK, now that i'm finally free I can take this apart properly like it needs to be: what we see here is a beginning of 59, quickly to 62, then a downwards trend all the way to 43 in '96, then an upwards trend for the next 4 years ending in a whopping 67 in '99. The idea that none of...

    I'm here to submit a nom of my own: Gourgeist-XL (or Super) to C+ basically, i'm looking at the list of C mons and i mean, i like ludicolo, i like kabutops, and Golbat fulfills a certain sort of niche. But Gourgeist-Super is on a whole 'nother level. Basically, it's the tier's most...
  8. Metagame NP: RU Stage 16: Criminal (Honchkrow banned)

    Let me just post my counter-argument; yeah, it's annoying to have to go into Blastoise, it's tough to switch into Steelix. But the thing a lot of people miss is that, against these kinds of teams, it's often tough to switch in Steelix. Steelix's big issue is that most offensive things in the...

    I'd like to echo what Chakra said; Registeel is a really great component of my stall team, being able to check / take on a lot of tough stuff, firstly as Chakra mentioned Venusaur and Exploud, also crucially Abomasnow, as well as even Tyrantrum to an extent (only a secondary check, but in my...

    edit: gato, don't forget the veto, supreme court justice (neither hard powers as they can be overrun, but important soft ones), and most importantly the ability to do a lot of things by executive fiat, including wars and actions of the like, to an extent agreements with other countries...a lot...

    or maybe the reality that, as a secretary of state that was already popular from being bill clinton's first lady who got cheated on, the fact that she accomplished precisely zero didn't really change anyone's mind because the secretary of state isn't necessarily expected to accomplish things. As...

    I'm going to do a longer post so stay tuned but But did any of this actually accomplish anything? When the largest accomplishment you can name is 'I talked to a lot of people' don't be surprised if everyone else says ' I could do that too, especially if I wasn't busy doing real work'. John...

    The U.S. Public Interest Research Group, a consumer advocacy group, estimated that BP will be able to deduct about $15.3 billion of its expenses from the settlement approved by a federal judge this week. yeah that's stupid. still about 55 billion though as the article itself says, but this has...

    other things A: lol sorry skitty. B: cultural appropriation is a term that is used to make people feel good about themselves. you'd think that, looking at this country's history, and its supposedly full-of-racism present, people would be thrilled that it is totally acceptable to associate...

    OK, so you argue these songs have made political statements. That, by the way, wasn't my goalpost - what do these statements mean, and how are they similar to Beyonce's in a way that proves a double standard? 1. first off, this song which is disallowed in my country but oh hell I get knocked...

    If by 'brace for impact' you mean 'scrafty DD's to +3 and 2hkoes from there, then sure. I assumed you were talking about a confrontation scrafty doesn't just win. Firstly, defensive venu is dong if it's not beating scrafty, so if roar is the scrafty-beater they should all carry it eventually...
