NHL sucks
I honestly challenge anyone who obviously knows nothing about hockey to keep high morale when the refs are literally maliciously trying to throw the game. I've never seen worse reffing in a series, and anyone who doesn't realize these are humans that actually get effected when the ref delibrately tries to blow a series against your team, should realize that it makes your team feel like they are skating though glue.

You discover a map to buried treasure
There is a catch. While visiting neighors you find the map in the hands of their infant son. The treasure is likely real as youd heard of the map and its fabled promise. The problem is not just that a child is holding the map- its that the family desperately would need the treasure to pay off their debts or they may end up on the streets starving. However you also know the babys mother and father gamble, drink and are rather unsavory. What do you do?

New robot!
There's a new robot called the omnibus that does all the work that needs to be done -- faster, cheaper, and more accurately than any human can do. Wrinkle: only one person owns it. Is this a problem or a blessing?

I was wondering if personality traits can make it harder for someone to ever get good at this game. I consider myself pretty average if not mediocre at diplomacy for a number of reasons.

Diplomacy: Is Germany Too Weak?
I noticed that Germany is considerably weaker in Diplomacy than it's historical counterpart. In game, Germany can very easily be knocked out by England and France. However, historically Germany was able to fight competently on three separate fronts. Does anybody feel that Germany is a little misrepresented in game?

Coup in North Korea
I was trying to think why Trump would engage in such brinksmanship with North Korea. Sure, it could be just more inexperience, etc, but then I was thinking that maybe the goal is to scare the generals there so much that someone bumps off the Great Leader. Then I started thinking, that's probably why he rubbed out his half-brother recently.

1. Be Impeccable with your Word:

Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the Word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your Word in the direction of truth and love.

2. Don’t Take Anything Personally

Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.

3. Don’t Make Assumptions

Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

4. Always Do Your Best

Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

How will you be getting rid of your homophobia if you contimue to believe gay people choose to be gay as opposed to being born gay.

Also there is nothing to be uncomfortable about: they arent going to try to covert you to being gay.

I would respect the person with the weirdly worded insult over the homophobic remark any day.

I believe Jamie is a bit out of touch with college rhetoric, but it's more than sufficient to just say "shut up" or "shut up you dumbass." When you say "shut up, you queer" it goes over a line that not very many people are happy with you crossing.

I would agree TrPrado. Most people I have met don't go to the extreme in their word choice, but then again I am usually in the front of the class with all the other goody-goodies.

What I am guessing is that your friends use that style of word choice a lot, so you developed it as well. Therefore the people calling you misogynistic and homophobic are outside your immediate friend circle, so try using a softer vocabulary around people OTHER then your friends.

Accept yourself dude. Dont live to please other people. If you are a bigot because other people are bigots you arent you. If you are against being a bigot because its more socially acceptable to appear to be socially accepting then you also arent being you.

If two guys are making out that should do absolutely nothing to you. And if it does secretly do something for you theres literally nothing wrong with that either. Its not like you have to join their makeout session. If you dont like PDA thats an acceptable reason to feel uncomfortable. But if you get older and goto a club sometime youll see way more debauchery than two guys kissing.

"rolling dices"?
I just won a 1v1 against CptMike, however he was getting really angry at me, saying he does not want me to join any more games that he has created, accusing me of "rolling dices". What happened according to me is that I lured him into trying for Munich in Autumn 01, then bouncing him out of there and basically leaving him with only one build.
