Take comfort knowing the sketch artist made him look like Jack Smith’s brother.

It’s even worse if you see him do it on camera. He did everything but wink and do an air kiss.

tacosanonymous,

Finger guns?

That would at least have made me laugh. This made me want to retch.

Wow, I’m shocked! Well, maybe not that shocked.

I smell insecurity…

Viking_Hippie,

I’m inside my apartment on the other side of the Atlantic and I too can smell it.

3d snow penises are so much better than the 2d kind

Rooty, in Worst fear confirmed: You can't launch Modern Warfare 3 without first launching Modern Warfare 2

At this point being into the MW series is basically having a humilliation fetish with a side order of findoming.

Viking_Hippie,

Sadly, that’s the case with most AAA games now. The shit EA and Ubisoft, to name two other examples, get away with because of owning a few extremely successful franchises with huge loyal followings is RIDICULOUS!

Gingerlegs, in Residents Outraged as Snow Penises Take Over Russia's Yekaterinburg - The Moscow Times | Ghostarchive

I believe I saw my first snow penis when I was 18 or so. It’s never not been funny ever since

Really? Your worst fear? You got nothing scarier going on in your life?

Viking_Hippie,

The headline is that of the article, not mine. That part only makes it funnier IMO 😄

He’d have a hard time this winter with such a thin skin.

Ilovethebomb, in Residents Outraged as Snow Penises Take Over Russia's Yekaterinburg - The Moscow Times | Ghostarchive

A petition appeared on Change.org calling on Yekaterinburg students to stop sculpting the snow penises, and as of Friday afternoon, it was signed by at least 17 people.

Even more useless than most of those petitions.

Bubnov also called on the public to take matters into their own hands and bring down the ice-bound boners where they see them, and to send him pictures of the penises so municipal workers could be dispatched to fell them.

Oh yes. thats exactly why he wants frosty dick picks, to, you know, get rid of them.

Chickenstalker, in Mexico: Migrants sew their lips shut to press demands for transit permits

Economic migrants should go through proper channels to migrate to another country. Note: economic migrants, not refugees. When I wanted to work in NZ, I had to get a job offer, do a medical checkup, take IELTS, apply for the visa and send supporting documents. Don’t shit up another country. Also, illegal immigrants almost always pay smuggling syndicates who then use them as indentured slaves to repay the fees. The employers will also pay them much less due to no workers protection. The end result is they barely have any extra income.

Chetzemoka,

It’s amazing to me how people really believe illegal economic immigrants to the United States are just like “nah man, fuck the paperwork, trudging my way across a life-threatening desert is so much easier”

I wonder what could possibly create a positive incentive to do something so insane? It couldn’t be that getting legal immigration is almost impossible, could it? Surely it’s the poor people who are wrong.

Oh wait…

“Because of the numerical caps and per-country caps on certain green-card categories…as of November 2018, there were 3.7 million people waiting in line abroad for a family-sponsored green card, and 121,000 awaiting an employment-sponsored green card.”

migrationpolicy.org/…/explainer-how-us-legal-immi…

WE’RE the problem. We simply DO NOT PROVIDE a reasonable legal framework for people who want to come to the United States to do so. They’re still here, mind you. So clearly those county-based immigration caps are very effective.

If we want to end illegal immigration, then we need to reform the immigration system so more people can do it legally.

“Illegal immigrants” to the U.S. is a consequence of all the shit the U.S. did to Central America in the 1980s. They didn’t have to do any of that. They helped toppling stable, democratic governments to put authoritarian clowns that would do whatever they wanted. And when they finished serving their purpose? “Lol get fucked, y’all, bye Felicia!”

Also, “People are coming here without our consent!” Hmmm… that sounds kind of familiar.

CmdrShepard,

“Illegal immigration” has always been a part of this country (migrants coming up to work farms during growing season) except they used to go home during the off-season until border crossings became more strict and they had to stay for fear of not making it back in later. These people obviously serve a purpose here in the US or they wouldn’t be coming but our laws just ignore reality in favor of unworkable solutions that leave these people vulnerable to being exploited.

Old man winter has apparently gotten into the Viagra.

TheLordHumungus, in Worst fear confirmed: You can't launch Modern Warfare 3 without first launching Modern Warfare 2

Haha Cock of Dooty blows. Imma keep crying over the turd pile of battlefield 2042

Viking_Hippie,

I don’t play either game myself, I just appreciate the absurdity of the situation 😄

TheLordHumungus,

That is dumb. When will game studios realise shit like that kills their game?

Edit: not you just to make it clear, the situation.

mea_rah,

That is dumb. When will game studios realise shit like that kills their game?

When they’re done shoveling all the money this brought them. Sadly.

TheLordHumungus,

Ya, the greed now is unbelievable

tacosanonymous, in Worst fear confirmed: You can't launch Modern Warfare 3 without first launching Modern Warfare 2

“I’ll explain: Before you can launch Modern Warfare 3, you have to launch Modern Warfare 2 first. Seriously. “Call of Duty HQ” is just the Modern Warfare 2/Warzone client under a new name.

Switching between Modern Warfares 2 and 3 from the HQ is not like switching modes. Once you’re on the main menu, you could jump immediately into Warzone or a multiplayer match of MW2. Clicking the Modern Warfare 3 button, however, closes the HQ app and launches an entirely different executable called Modern Warfare 3. There is no option to just launch Modern Warfare 3, because “Modern Warfare 3” is not its own game. It’s buried, literally, inside CoD HQ as a piece of add-on content.

The result? It takes 70-90 seconds to launch Modern Warfare 3—at least, those are the times I’m getting. That’s an eternity for CoD, but what’s baffling is that these extra steps serve no discernable purpose for players. Perhaps Activision pitched the CoD HQ with consoles in mind, where games aren’t so easily organized by series and an app that switches between the handful of still-active CoDs is useful.”

MelastSB,

What if you don’t own MW2?

Viking_Hippie,

Then you can’t run MW3. If not for the date, I’d honestly have suspected that Activision were doing a huge April fool’s prank!

tacosanonymous,

I doubt that. I bet they package the client with 3 but you don’t get any actual mw2 content.

Viking_Hippie,

Other way around, according to the article: the launcher considers it a mod for MWF 2 and as such it can only be launched by first entering the lobby of MWF2. It has no independently launchable executable file.

MeaanBeaan,

This is very wrong. They’ve been doing this with Warzone (which is free-to-play) for a while. If you try to launch MW2 from the launcher when you don’t own it it just takes you to a page to buy it. There’s no way they would lock you out of a game you own just because you don’t own another game in the launcher. Not defending the practice though still completely ridiculous you have to launch the MW2 launcher first.

Viking_Hippie,

Oh. Guess first reading the article at 4am my time DID impair reading comprehension somewhat! My bad 😄

Still a bizarre way to to it, though

Anticorp,

So there’s nothing really unique about it? It’s just a cash grab selling a mod as an entire game?

Viking_Hippie,

I honestly don’t know. The contents of the short article linked in the OP is literally all I know about the third of the modern warfares 😄

Earthwormjim91,

Modern warfare 3 hasn’t been released yet. They released the campaign as an early access DLC for MWII.

bighatchester,

You can actually download it without buying . I wanted to play warzone on ps5 . Took forever to find the download for it but it basically makes you download all of modern warfare 2 just to play the free to play parts .
