What vile necromancy is this?

Did you notice that it lists different meanings there?

Was Sailor Moon really an anime for little girls? I just figured that Japs were weird and that having teenaged(?) girls in sailor costumes named after celestial objects was normal for them.

Have you heard of a homophone? https://www.etymonline.com/word/*men-

Stop editing this damn thing. I don't need a goon squad.

The heli kill on Dawnbreaker was disgusting. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Just casually walking away after shooting that filthy shot and shitting all over him without him ever being the wiser. How could you do that to him?

Are you implying that American schools do not teach that other continents, subcontinents ( I've generally only seen this applied to India and Arabia ) , and regions exist? If you are then you would be wrong. While the American education system has its faults basic geography is still taught...

The only people who get upset by the United States of America being called just "America" are people from other countries within the continents of North and South America, none of which actually have the name "America" in them. I think it's an inferiority complex. We were the first independent...
