I see people have returned to pre election hysteria. 
Better get ready for a whole 4 years of this.

Well, their argument was that the availability of porn will always drag you on a path for more extreme stuff. Every image stimulates the dopamine levels in your brain, and like a drug you need more and newer experiences to get the same kick. A heavy porn user would soon find himself utterly dissatisfied with "normal sex", not to mention normal women.
Luckily it does seem to require a good, solid porn diet to get that bad, because if not we'd all be fucked. 
I don't recall the exact numbers they were quoting, but it was something like 20%+ ED among young men in the west. Kids these days grow up with the most extreme porn a fingertip away. I remember me and my friends had to work hard to get our hands on just a porn mag, and that was the 90s.

Hasn't SCOTUS ruled pornography is protected by the 1st Amendment? I'll have to look it up to be sure, but I could swear I've read a case where it was discussed.
I think so. Rings a bell.
I've grown more skeptical after watching 'Your Brain On Porn'. Erectile dysfunction stats are supposedly through the roof with young men these days.

Trump's twitter feed is just incredible to witness. Future President's should take a page out of his book on this. I'm really enjoying these constant updates on what he's doing. Of course, that doesn't mean he's actually doing any of those things, but as a viewer you feel a lot more involved.
I am asking the chairs of the House and Senate committees to investigate top secret intelligence shared with NBC prior to me seeing it.

Well, that is quite an hilarious observation.
He was mighty prescient with his reunion prediction too, so maybe you're on to something.

I applaud you for your stamina Randall.

Yeah, my new nick is ObamaLove and the character is a woman. Staying on the safe side this time.
I was actually naive enough to think people with jobs weren't that petty. Burns me every time.

I have no idea, which makes it so frustrating. It takes a fart to breach their TOS, so could be anything.
Did some money glitches which it could be, but it's rare for people to get banned for that. Usually they just wipe the money. And even that takes some bad luck to happen. All my friends have done similar for example.
If the mod was of a certain political affiliation he might find my username offensive.
I sometimes kill players in freemode (part of what the game is about), but apparently that can be a breach of their TOS. This coming from a game that encourages you to fuck up other players sell missions (something I consider way worse).
Could be that I blocked my visa 6 months ago, but I had no running charges with them so there shouldn't be any money owed. Sending me a frigging bill if that was the case would more reasonable I think, from a business standpoint.
Checked around on the web and people said if you didn't get a temp ban first, you really did something serious. I'm like, what the hell? I just play gta from time to time, only communicate with friends and don't do any hacks.

Sony banned my account from PSN. Sent me an email telling me "we're not going to tell you why, don't bother asking and there's nothing you can do to reverse it".
Cunts. Last time either Sony or Rockstar see a cent from me. If there is even a whif of their involvement I'm boycotting. 2 years I put into that character and they just wipe it. I sincerely felt evil visiting my door when it happened.

2017 will be dominated by Trump. That's about the only thing I feel certain about.
I hope all the Marvel and Star Wars stuff bombs spectacularly so that we're done with that way of making movies. Slim chance though.
