  1. Re: F.B.I. Director James Comey Is Fired By Trump

    Roma, you say all this, yet somehow Heathen Hammer is more subtle than President of the United States Donald Trump.
  2. Re: ISIS and the Nazis have nothing on the British Empire

    This sentence highlights the underlying issues with your (extremely flawed) argument. The British Empire rarely committed mass murder on any systemic level. Aside from occasional small massacres that...
  3. Re: Who was the greatest historian of the 20th century?

    The minds behind the Annales school are the ones that immediately spring to mind, specifically Braudel and Marc Bloch. They took the foundations left by Ranke, Mommsen and others to help evolve the...
  4. Re: The race to the 2016 presidential race (former: Republican candidates)

    Fixed for you. Your sentiment is exactly correct though. America was built on refugees from the Great Famine and unification wars. One thing every history of Prussia I've ever read harps on is the...
  5. Re: Assassin's Creed Unity & Assassin's Creed Rogue

    I recall the endless kill chains, but the only reason you die in this game is the rifle/pistolmen. It's the same as the old ACs, you mash X until you see a yellow flash, then you parry. If a big guy...
  6. Re: Assassin's Creed Unity & Assassin's Creed Rogue

    After playing a fairly significant amount of Unity, I'm really torn. As a plain old Assassin's Creed game, it's pretty decent. Compared to what it was hyped as and my god, the disappointment.

    I do love when this kind of thing happens in a journal article, and you can see the SEETHING academic hatred. It's an internet argument times 100 and it's always both hilarious and enlightening.
