@Tyranexx One year NATO met in Williamsburg, VA. Dad was a Lt Cmdr in the Navy and stationed on shore at the time. So he had to work with the attaches for UK and French delegates. I tagged along because I was out of school. Living in Virginia Beach, you can only enjoy Williamsburg so many times already.
Dad still loves a joke he told those delegates to this day;
They were near a commemoration statue when dad turned to the Englishman and said "This is where we kicked your [butt], (turns and points to Frenchman) and they helped us! Harharhar"

@Morpheel Ugh, that's sick. Well, good riddance, then. I actually did watch some of his videos now and then, but luckily, I've never subscribed to his channel. Although of course, in hindsight, that's easier to say.
@Tyranexx You forgot to mention the scenario that happens on this very website sometimes:
Person 1: Well, I think that (gives honest, sincere opinion)...
Person 2: Ha! I don't agree with you at all, so you're talking complete nonsense!
Person 1: It's just my opinion, man. Relax, it's okay to disagree.
Person 2: Okay, that's it, you ignorant fool, I'm hitting the ignore button...
In my honest opinion, people like that should be banned for life, to say the VERY least, since they're probably also extremely useless individuals in real life...
What really kills me are when discussions spiral into something that isn't related in any way to the original topic.
Yeah, those are truly like watching a train wreck. Albeit not one slowly unfolding in front of you, but one popping into existence in a split second, like someone escaped from the Matrix. Except it sure as heck isn't Neo...
I myself have recently once again made the mistake of not liking something in this article thread. Can't do that, now can we? Can't like, dislike, agree or disagree. Lord knows what's left that actually IS acceptable...
On a side note:
You toured Volition's office? Lucky devil, you...
@AlohaPizzaJack Sounds like your old man has my kinda sense of humor. And you're also my pineapple on pizza brother. Keep scoring them kudo points, buddy...

@AlohaPizzaJack Your dad sounds epic! XD Definitely my kind of humor. I wonder how the NATO reps rolled with it?
@ThanosReXXX Yep, I've seen plenty of use of the Ignore feature. I tend to just use it with obvious trolls who have more than likely been banned by this point anyway.
It's like some people have forgotten about these nice little things called "opinions". It's okay to have them. I don't think someone is a monster for believing the other side of an issue.
As for the tour: Yep, back in my college days. A group of us from an Information Technology club went. The instructor who headed the whole thing had been trying for months to get us in. They'd understandably been doing no tours in the months leading up to the release of the third game.
As the suggestions for this site forum got locked I will post this here.
I was looking through the sites' store for a sweet Nintendolife shirt but apparently there are none. This site could get some free advertisement and make a few dollars if there were. I wouldn't even mind if in smaller letters on the front or big letters on the back there was a link to this site or to your payed subscription page. I hope this finds its way to a Site Moderator and finds you well. Sincerely someone with some cash to burn.
