Massive gravedig. I had to write a short story for an English class and I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out. Synopsis: A young man explores his past to better understand his present. Feel free to read: https://pastebin.com/5xZAb78b Disclaimer: There are some unpleasant scenes but I don't imagine they'll be an issue for anyone here. There are a few people I suspected as being SJWs in my class and they didn't bat an eye to them. This is FICTION, not based on my own life.

What Game Are You Currently Playing?
OSUViking replied to Phenomenal TJ's topic in General Entertainment
I heard bad things about the ending. Is it enjoyable otherwise? -
I think being able to make money off their own likeness is at least reasonable.

This is meant to be a genuine question, though it may not come off as one. Do any of you think that the student activists from Parkland are doing any good? I remember some defended their emotionality, though I didn't necessarily interpret this as defending their arguments themselves.

2018 TGP Mock Draft Discussion Thread (We're Rolling)
OSUViking replied to Cherry's topic in NFL Draft
Hey guys, hate to say this, but some health things popped up the last few days. They reached a head today, and I want to make sure that I'm only applying myself where is necessary while I try to handle them. I'll be dropping out of this, unfortunately. Best of luck with this year's game. -
We need more whistleblowers. I think it's disgusting that people think whistleblowers are horrible humans because the government tells them to think that. I get that they're technically violating a plethora of laws, and there are consequences to whistleblowing, but the fact that people don't even process the information before labeling them traitors is ridiculous.

Yeah this is pathetic, lol.

A clever trick to get my personal information. CIA confirmed. I could DM you my OSU email, I feel more comfortable sharing that than my phone number. -
The idea of saving up enough money to retire elsewhere is more appealing by the day.

2018 TGP Mock Draft Discussion Thread (We're Rolling)
OSUViking replied to Cherry's topic in NFL Draft
Since we will be starting up soon, I want to request that people @ me on the Discord when it is my turn and I am not online. School should be picking up (4 weeks left, and not like my summer will be much of a break), so it's possible that my ability to constantly check the site diminishes. Doing this would give me a notification straight to my phone so there wouldn't be too much of a delay. -

I will not be among those taking up extra teams, for the record. -
First the Vikings fucked Teddy, now the Jets. Fuck the NFL, man.

I'll take the Vikings. Edit: For this, I feel that joining the Discord could help with when it comes to my pick. Could someone post the information that I need to join? -
The Jets are just gonna do Teddy like that damn

Germany and the USSR were going to fight regardless of US involvement or not. Germany was pretty much always going to lose that fight, because the US was heavily involved even when it wasn't officially in the war. They engaged German submarines in the Atlantic and the Lend-Lease program provided crucial supplies on both European fronts. It was advantageous for the US to take a leading role in the war, because afterwards Europe was so devastated that it basically took the mantle of Western civilization with zero resistance. There was absolutely no chance that Germany could have occupied the UK. It's not even a hypothetical possibility. They were relying on collected river barges for Operation Sea Lion, and the British still had naval supremacy in the Channel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Sea_Lion#Landing_craft The Axis never had the capability to match Allied mass production and manpower, especially when the US kicked into full gear and the USSR revived some of its industry east of the Urals. I've read a few opinions that said MAYBE the Germans could have reached Moscow before fall mud/winter set in, if they didn't have to save the Italians in the Balkans. It's still all speculative. They'd have to face more manpower, more industry, and inferior logistics. The US played an instrumental role in ending the war as soon as it did, as did the rest of the Allies (particularly the USSR in Europe). However, it was most likely always going to end up with Axis defeat. The USSR would have dominated Europe, certainly. Japan's fate I'm more uncertain about, but I think with the USSR fresh off Germany they could pummel Japan's mainland Asia force quite easily. I'm not sure about their amphibious capabilities.

WW2 was a HUGE opportunity for the US with almost no conceivable consequence outside of financial and human life loss. The Axis were going to lose. The US did what it needed to in order to secure it's hegemony in the West and parts of the Far East. Roosevelt was itching to be able to get into the war. The war was justified, but protecting other's freedom wasn't the only main objective of the war.
