>>102644633this. just... this. people dont TALK to each other anymore! reminds me of that scene from the joker
>nooooooooooooooo I can't talk! I must consume instead!>btw fucking autists they can't into HuMan CoMmuNicAtIOn!!!
surprised people still own optical media drives to play dvds with
>>102644633nothing to say besides what slur you want to use for them
>>102644633>talk to people
>>102644633Cutting the internet is the first step in healing.
Interesting. I've always assumed that at least 50% of people have their computers clogged with dozens of YIFY rips.Scary how reliant people seem to be on netflix...
>>102644735Most people still own something that'll play DVDs or Blu-rays. Most games consoles from the past 20+ years can play at least DVDs.
>>102644633>>102644671Me and the boys get together once a week for pizza and movies/games. It's the highlight of my week at least. I usually just program when I get back home from work, maybe I'm just getting old but sitting there programming like an autist just doesn't do it for me anymore.
>16TB drive for movies and TV shows>20TB drive for PC games and emulators>modded xbox with 2tb drive and 100 games and tv shows>modded JTAG xbox 360 with 200 games and emulators>nintendo ds with flash cart and 200 games>modded 3ds with 200 games>modded ps1 with 50 games>modded psp with 50 games>modded psvita with 100 games>collection that would take up an entire 10x10 room crammed full with no walking space and would cost $100,000>all fits in a small box and cost less than $1000 total
>>102644785>DVDs or Blu-rays.I feel weird when using these. Like they don't belong to our current era.
>>102644633Considering the national guard is being sent to the middle East and FEMA has used all its resources on settling illegal immigrants, these people have a lot of work ahead of them. No time for fun for a while
>>102644807This. I passed 2100 movies and 300 shows yesterday. Never mind the sheer volume of documentaries, concerts, YouTube channel dumps etc. Also>packed 3ds >256gb kobo >hacked switch filled >wikipedia offline >physical books >old 3b+ with all the retro titles >200 songs per mp3 CDs, I must have 100 floating around
>>102644929Usbs dont belong in our current era, every one of them lies about the speed and dies after a month at most, 99% of discs lasts over 20 years, I'm going back.>>1026448074x20TB for movies, music, YT slop, software among other random shit. Prioritized stuff that has higher chance of disappearing, I'll need a couple more to backup Steam/GOG/consoles.
>>102644987>discs lasts over 20 years, I'm going back.Hard drives last a decade, especially if you only use them for watching movies and tv shows. Long enough.
>>102644955fune goats
>>102644987Depends on type of NAND and how much you use them. QLC is the cheapest and of course the most dogshit that might actually have worse reliability than HDDs.Optical media isn't the superman you think it is either. Given certain conditions it undergoes bitrot.
>>102644987>UsbsA what?
>>102644999Hopefully I'll be able to replace them before then, I do wanna get into bluray tho it might die out fully before I get to it>>102645037Install an OS off them a few times or copy some files around, nothing toys consider heavy useage, all of them are false advertised trash no matter the brand, just saw up for an external SSD if you actually want speed or HDD/optical for reliability.
>>102645074>>Usbs>A what?Looks like phone-poster-capitalization for "USBs," a common shorthand for "USB flash drives"
>>102645301>a common shorthand for "USB flash drives"Only if you're a zoomer.
Hoard bros, we can't stop winning.Imagine if the average normalfag knew you could just buy an HDD and download movies.
>>102644943>the national guard is being sent to the middle Eastamericans have 300 million guns. which purely socioeconomic factors prevents them from using those against tyranny?
>>102645344When the apocalypse comes we can sell them access for top dollar.

>>102644955Thank god someone mentioned books, there is still some hope for humanity.
>>102644781I work in a ISP, and this job is where you go inside homes. People have nice security cameras and 4K TV, but always lack of NAS, a second router ("why the wifi is slow?"), laptoos with broken screens.They are literal chimps.
>>102644562CONSOOOOOM
>>102644562QRD? Where is the internet down?
>>102646060i guess those affected by the hurricane? Which funny story about that, i found out about it through a comment on this board. Don't really check the news anymore.
>>102646060Americans are being left out like fucking dogs to fend for themselves because israel needs them to die for isarel.AGAIN.
>>102646130oy gevalt you will not be saved, goy!
>>102646060>>102646100>>102646130>>102646148Hey man... Those are Russian shill Kremlinbot and Hamas sympathizer talking points... stop that!
You cant even own land in america worth a shit thats actually rural for under 80,000 USD so its not even worth it prepping. just buy a SUV and live in it.
>>102646187stop this *farts in your face*
>>102644807what kind of harddrives do you use? since all of that is less than $1k i'm assuming its the right balance between cheap and reliable?
>>102644562That's why I built my own network. Within my house. With access to a library of 450 films. Note that I didn't say movies, I do not watch movies. Most - if not all - would be unavailable for purchase at the nigger cattle trough known as Walmart.
>>102644562what are they gonna play them on? Consoles?Imagine if they didn't have an old console with a disc drive they'd be royally screwed
>People still ask for 360s how did Microsoft lose the lead that 360 gave them so bad Everyone had a 360
>>102646500currynigger ceo that prioritized cloudshit while letting everything else rotxbox, phones, windows, everything
how the hell do they still not have internet fucking hell get it together how is it Elon has the only satellite internet and none of these other ISPs do
>>102644633you're tired and exhausted and just want to veg i guess.
>>102644633there are no humans left in this world, only consumers
>>102646614Because he is the only one with rockets bro
Ohhh they wanted XBOX 360s because their current consoles need the internet to do everything they can't play offline. You need to login and be online so you can turn offline mode on.
>>102646686the world truly is a vampire
>>102646686This is why consolefags are the niggers of gaming.
>>102646686>>102646798Doesn't Steam also do the Go online to Go offline shit?
>>102644562If I was put in this situation, I would just lift more, sleep more, and do more repairs and /diy/ stuff thats on backburnerHow does anyone jump to the conclusion that they should go out and buy a Xbox instead of take the time to work on their life
>>102645745lmao
>>102644633They do, guess what they talk about...I'm tired of office smalltalk always being about what tv shows everyone is watching now. People are boring as fuck and refuse to pickup hobbies.
>>102644807i envy you
>>102644787sounds gay. You're GAY
>>102644955you actually watched all those movies and shows or just hoard and the 'plan to watch' list ever grows?
>>102646901Because everyone is an NPC now, thanks to the internet.I've lost internet access for a few days before, all I do is watch shit I have downloaded but never get around to. The problem is that it's fucking boring without 4chan. I waste a considerable portion of my day posting garbage here because it's fun.The masses don't even have that. All they do is watch whatever is new on streaming sites.
>>102646386NTA but Enterprise drives, fast, reliable, 5 year warranty, relatively affordable, like Toshiba MG, Seagate Exos, WD Gold/Ultrastar.>>102646448Since normies are phonefags and have been for a decade at least the last time they bough a computer was when vista was new so they still have that lying around for occasions like this>>102646846Its called GOG, the true successor to physical media without any DRM unlike 99% of physical media
>>102646148jew shillbots on every platform
>>102646187With the money spent on jewkraine and the 20 years of jew terrorist wars;Every millennial could have been given a free house paid for by the gubberment.Fuck traitors and fuck boomers
>>102646243The boomers really built a great first world economy where people with jobs are forced to live in cars
>>102646187The same thing happened with that train chemical diaster.The enviro-fags and the media were silent
what people don't understand is that the money we've spent on arming Ukraine was going to be spent either way. It can either sit in a warehouse or it can be fired at Ziggers, I know which I prefer
>>102645745Why is every picture of satellites CGI?
>>102647498We lost internet for a day quite recently, and my wife was immediately lost. All she does with her free time is scroll tiktok while she watches reality shows on another screen. We don't even have any movies on physical media any more, although I do have a PS4 to play them on. Luckily I have a Plex server with a few things on it
>>102647728Youre the problem there.
>>102644562>for daysHow horriric. Anyway
>>102644562This is exactly why I have 8TB of porn backed up on my hard drives.
PHYSICAL MEDIA CHADS WE ARE SO BACKDIGITAL ONLY FAGS BTFO
>>102647800>50tb of digital only media on my own storage
>>102647766explain
>>102644633WDYTYA?????
>>102644633have you seen the people you'd have to talk to???
>>102647649The funny thing is that in order to not make it a national panic, they told people to go back into their homes and they don't need any financial aid. Then people started going blind and getting cancer because of the toxic drinking water and air, and the government/media hushed it all up and said they were exaggerating things.Funny ass shit. 600 dead Americans and tens of billions of dollars worth of damages and not a cent to them.
>>102644562No.
>>102644633>Why don't they just talk to each otherwhy don't they just talk to each otherBecause they don't have internet, duuuuuuh
>>102645724>Conveniently omits the subscription cost
>>102648207Good pic.
Not much but honest day's workI'm by no means a data hoarder but I know I will never get bored.
>>102644955>I passed 2100 movies and 300 shows yesterday. Torrent them. I have 10GB connection. I will trouble you for a day.
>>102647471>having friends is gayI don't have any myself, but come on now.
>>102644562Are NPCs in constant pain the moment you turn off Netflix and social media?
>>102647022just buy a 3DS for $100 and start modding
>>102645735even the flesh computer that harnesses your immortal soul and enables it to experience everything this mortal realm has to offer including the concept itself of self can failit's so over guys
>>102644562bro you have NO idea how many terabytes of vidya I have on my SSDs, perfectly playable offline
>>102644987USBs are drag and drop.DVDs you have to burn and all that finicky shit.Fuck off retard
>>102644787Where do I find boys like that? My friends never wanna do shit unless it involves going to clubs (which I never get invited to anyways)
>>102644658Considering how addicted to media these fags are I unironically expect mass suicides the first time shit like cloudflare goes down for a week or two.
>>102645327could you borrow me your oosb, brah
>>102645327>yeah bro can you give me the universal serial bus attached flash storage device?
>>102644725Yes, the human brain must consoom media. Before the Internet the addiction was movies and tv, before that it was print and music. Stop being a contrarian faggot.
>>102644658>>102650406>>102644671>>102644633>>102644766>>102646638>>102647011>>102648065>>102645891People are bunch of losers, and it only get worse. They can't sit alone with themselves, because they hate themselves, they can't sit alone with their thoughts, they can't sit in the real world, because they can't accept reality. Trying to forget their reality, they need their drugs 24/7. They won't try to solve their problems, because they're rooted in their lives to an extend where change means death. All modern retardation is a symptom of atheism, which is the path of satan, the path of darkness. The sun will rise again when the world returns to its nature: The path of light, the path of god.
>>102644807I have a couple modded consoles as well and like ~3TB of media. And a Kobo with like 200 books.I think the internet could disappear for years and I wouldn't even notice
>>102647725Why every picture of space is CGI?

holy shit, complaining about people not talking to each other anymore while pushing old timey media like DVDs of all things?How old is everyone in this thread? I feel like I just stumbled upon my granparents talking about those darned kids on their darned phones lmao
>>102651478The real question is how old are you?
>>102647496I dont have a lot of time for TV or movies, I've watched all the classics and do plan to watch many of them. The idea is more 1- if I google a movie I typically already have it. Or if I'm suddenly in the mood to watch groundhog day or the Animatrix, its there. I mostly watch old TV like Stargate and mythbusters. 2- I share my server with a few friends and family members who all have different tastes. Once every month or two I spend a day just downloading whatever top movie torrents dropped and dump them on there. >>102648819I used to have them seeding but these are mostly old torrents. You'd be better off torrenting active torrents. Also my upload is shit.
>>102651541>I used to have them seeding but these are mostly old torrents. You'd be better off torrenting active torrents. Also my upload is shit.This is why communism fell. No love for each other. Sad. :(
>>102651183and before print and recordable music? they told stories and played music for each other. that anon had a point, it's pathetic what easy access to media and entertainment has done to us.
>>102651560Eh I did my time. Go to the PTG and get hoarding. If you were someone I knew IRL I'd just tell you to buy two 16tb HDDs and send them to me for cloning, have a friend who did just this.
>>102651592I wish I knew someone IRL who was redpilled and based enough to hoard files and knew how to clone drives. lol
Why are blank blurays so expensive? I know physical is dying but there's still tones of movies and games printed on em. I thought the point of disc's was stamping them out for dirt cheap
>schizoid instantly melts down and spams the thread>only his first post gets deleted>>102646901Most people aren't self-impr000000ver larpers roleplaying on 4chan about how they will totally for real gymbro and be a handyman if the internet went out. Go on, take care of those repairs and /diy/ things. You won't.
>>102651623Its not hard to build you collection, I'd start asap since torrents dissapear rapidly these days. I started by looking up lists of "top 100 horror movies" "best movies 1960s" etc. And just sat there downloading. Plex takes care of the metadata automatically in most cases once you want to actually have it on a media server.
>>102644633>DeletedTRUTH WILL OUT!>>102644785Not at all: Most zoomers I know don't own anything that can play a Blu-Ray, DVD or even a CD.Their dependence on "Streaming as a Service" is getting me worried...>>102646846Their "Go offline" feature I find buggy at best.
>>102651655Very well. Thanks. Tonight I will make a list of things I want to download.
>>102646148>Israel is God's chosen peopleThe New Testament explicitly states that Jews are not Israel, but that Christians are. Why are American Christians such complete dipshits?
>>102651649Nta, but we are not all larping>repair house >sell house in burbs for insane inflate price because market is broken>buy 10 acres with a small house Literally took the week off to do this. Posting while sitting in my dusty bathroom installing trim. I already finished the basement, crown molding and ground my garage floors to be nice and flat since they were a mess.
>>102651711How do you grind your garage floor nice and flat? Do you mean like uniformly flat or you just spot-checked the more egregious hills with some kind of tool?Genuinely curious. My current project is plugging leaks and re-building after my 2nd mold remediation in this dump condo I paid way too much for last year
>>102651786not him, but I flattened my garage floor by pouring self leveling cement over it, it's been 5 years since with no cracking.
>>102651655>torrents dissapear rapidly these daysThat is true but unless it's something genuinely rare it's going to be reuploaded just as quick.Especially with movies and tv you'll only ever have a problem if you want something other then the English/original language version.
>>102651786I run a business that uses heavy grinding machines. I dumped metal carbide plates under my machine and ground the entire thing until the aggregate showed. Went up through the grits until it was smooth then put densifier and sealer. Its so easy to keep clean now. Cracks got filled with epoxy. >>102651821 self levelling works too but it can separate if not done correctly (primed, clean etc). I post on /diy/ all the time
>janiggers delete the post 80% of this thread was replying towhat's the point
>>102651900With this moderation? Extremely low effort shitposting, rattling the cages and watching the spergout and that's it.
>>102651821>>102651894Neat, thanks guys
>>102646846>>102651673Yes, Steam/valve were the first to force online DRM, you need to be online to go into offline mode even since the 2010s and it will randomly force you to go online and if you can't you cant play. Oh, and when you go online it forces updates or you can't play. The valve fanboys refuse to acknowledge this fact.
>>102652020Does it work. The same way on steam deck?
this thread is bait to hoarders
>>102644671Go to the south, it's still alive and well.
>>102652084Reality keeps proving data hoarders right. But don' worry I look forward to charging retards that didn't see the obvious coming outrageous sums for access to my collection.
>>102652020Just keep a copy of the Goldberg Emulator DLL and use that if you're fully offline for whatever reason.
>>102652236>Just have a piracy tool handyor just pirate to begin with. It doesnt exuse their nearly-always DRM and how they normalized it so the whole industry copied it.
>>102651244>They can't sit alone with themselves, because they hate themselves, they can't sit alone with their thoughts, they can't sit in the real world, because they can't accept reality.

>>102651673>Not at all: Most zoomers I know don'tWho gives a shit? Zoomers don't constitute most people, or most households. I'd be very confident in stating that at least 51% of US households have one or more of the following:A standalone DVD/Blu-ray playerA laptop with an optical driveA desktop PC with an optical driveAny Sony or Microsoft games console from the original PS2 onwardsSome other device like a TV with a built-in DVD player or a hacked WiiThey may not actually use said thing any more, or have EVER used it for that functionality when it comes to something like a PS5, but that doesn't mean they couldn't in a pinch.

>>102652630>>102652644>Anon the streets are floodedSo it was the aftermath of a hurricane? Honestly I think at that point my electronics would have suffered from water damage. Im surprised these people even have electricity given that most of the powerlines are not buried.But then just socialize with the other people who got fucked by the hurricane? Maybe help eachother out cleaning the streets or whatever?
>>102647728>plexanon, I.....
>>102647728well what the fuck did she do
>>102652678Nta but I'm tired of people shitting on plex. Maybe jellyfin got better, but I gave up on it a few years ago as it just didn't work well. Plex does just work, and it always finds metadata even for obscure movies or anime and shitty named torrents. Im glad people get jellyfin to work, and I hope it improves with more users, I'm not married to Plex. For now though myself and 3-4 families all watch my server simultaneously without a hiccup. >buy an adFuck Plex and making me connect to their servers. Still, it works.

>>102652577outside where the hurricane is yeah, or the temporary camp where you're living, whatever. The point is that people are in dire straits and they just want to watch some kino while their lives are being fucked by nature and at the same time everyone has something to say about it because they have a keyboard

Computers are bloat uninronically, but as long as you have spare parts, solar and free electricity they arent that bad.Considering all you need their use for is to use them until the end of your life comes, so they can work for a while.

>>102658386Well he's technically wrong on the detail of "for no reason at all" the rest is completely correct.
>>102648102and somehow Ohio is still a swing state lol
>>102644807make sure to keep backups anon. I was lazy and too much of a cheapskate and regretted it
>>102658410You likely won't have a stroke if you're young and healthy. You will not bleed out instantly. You can still be helped and even make a full recovery.
>>102658558Stroke != brain aneurysm

>>102658209It gets even worse. The universe could end instantly at any moment and we would never be able to detect it coming. Look up False Vacuum Collapse.We probably are not living in a false vacuum... but we can't rule it out, either.

>>102658623Doesn't change a thing fren
>>102651244I would agree with if not for the religious drivel
>>102658558I had a SAH at 27. Im pretty much fine. Still just as retarded as before.
>>102653827Depends on the scenery. If you live in a rural area with nice scenery I can understand wanting to appreciate that rather than listen to music. If its some urban sprawl of copy paste suburbs and glass towers, you are a psycho.
>>102658010Snes and gba emulators on vita kinda suck, and you're stuck with retroarch for most other systems. Hacked 3ds is best for gba and other Nintendo stuff.
>>102658209That's actually pretty sick, but only if it happens to specifically me.

>>102651244Cultists will never be interesting again, no matter how much it is being pushed.
>look through imdb >everything sucksWhy are they hoarding superman flicks?So garbage. Well that's what they show their kids instead of going to church I read. Not saying you should go to church i don't know. Is batman really the guy good guy anyways.
>>102658558>likelythat's the thing about randomness, it being unlikely has nothing to do with it. Studies show sharks kill fewer people than cars. You gonna go swim with a great white? What do you mean? It's unlikely. Doesn't matter why. And no, it's not an irrelevant comparison: the quantity compared is whether or not something is likely or not altering whether or not it will happen to YOU regardless of circumstance.
>>102651478NTA and look man, these people could of been talking about the essentials of oral communication over the written word like Socretes did for all I care.Point is, the internet is like junk food: You have to consume in moderation at most.

>>102652374>A standalone DVD/Blu-ray playerLess than 50% have an old DVD player lying around. Hardly any of them are still connected to the new flat screens they stream one. Bluray players negligible. >A laptop with an optical driveThese have been extinct for a decade>A desktop PC with an optical driveLiterally no one has a desktop PC at home anymore>Any Sony or Microsoft games console from the original PS2 onwardsThis is the only category that is meaningful, mostly zoomers and gen alpha with the latest gaystation gaybox>Some other device like a TV with a built-in DVD player or a hacked WiiHoly shit you live in a fantasy land. No one has these. Its been streaming online smart TVs for over a decade now. Do you live in mexico or something?(For reference I have a 4k bluray player and nearly 2000 discs)
>>102651244you forgot to add "you need to talk to jesus" to make your contradictory bullshit more clear, retard>>102644562>>102653850forgive him, he's american.
>>102645724>>102648775starlink is not a bad product, I think last I checked it was less than $100 per month for the subscription (which is expensive where I live if you compare to fibre but a lot cheaper and a lot faster than other options if you live remotely)the hardware you get is kinda shit though tbf
>>102651183>Before the Internet the addiction was movies and tvNobody was watching movies and shows every hour of their waking day before the internet. Now people browse the internet every hour on the hour on their phones throughout the day. That's in addition to watching netflix and other shit. Are you the same guy who gaslights every thread about how nothing has changed?

>>102660820>>102652374TBF, I can see half of that in literally any 3rd world shithole. I've seen tin shacks in Thailand last year with a single color TV and a VCD player ( not DVD, video CD). OP's image in question is in boonies of appalachia which probably not as destitute and most households either moved on to streaming like most of the population or never owned such tech to begin with. No idea why the shelves are empty, most likely they were never restocked or got looted.

>>102651183>movies and tv existed for th entire history of humanitylmao even, whis is less than a 100 years old, addiction to media ruin people and is turning people into faggots
I was without internet and tv for a week and a half somewhat recently. I spent most of the time either on the computer trying to figure out which of the gorillion things I have horded I want to watch or play, and phoneposting. Didn't even touch one of the dozens of model kits in my backlog, and barely played any of my backlog of games.
>>102660820cool story many 4k palyer and 2000disk cooli has 5 laptop laying arround here 2 of them with a br drive and every pc gamer dose have a desktop pc many of them have disk drivers and tons of drive space some extrenel some interneri myself still have a br burner 8x so i can backup data on itfu my desktop system even has 17tb of ssd drive in my case +10-12tb of externer hdd drives pretty sure i have enothe stuff on that diver to play /watch whateverbut i guse i would go outside more, fix stuff on the house, take a little 60km bike tour, meat some friend i didnt see for a while also everyone dose only stream on smart tvs?sure never use netflix or amazone on any streaming shitit interresting what poeple would do without interner for days, but what would you do without power?ill would not have a problem like most people but still i dont get why people want to sit in fornt of a screen/tv all the time if desteny tell you no internet for today or this week maybe go outside for some time

>>102651244It's possible to make money now without directly dealing with party animals. Cope.
>>102660360>Studies show sharks kill fewer people than carsAnd that's why we have a distinction between relative and absolute numbers. >regardless of circumstance.Nope, not how it works because you directly put me in a circumstance that makes it way more likely. Also another part you forgot is that driving has a lot of value meanwhile swimming with sharks serves no real purpose.
>>102644955>>wikipedia offlinemedia included?how do you do that properly?
>>102644807You will never consume even 1% of all of this content.
>>102663693It's not too hard to find fren. Also there are dictionaries and the sort.

>>102651711Insanely based. I have 3 kids and a 100 year old house, with no shortage of things to fix / upgrade. Last weekend, I just replumbed my basement bathroom to accommodate two washing machines running at the same time. If I didn't have to work, I have literally +6 months of projects I could commit to for my house and love every minute of it. Next up: dry stacked rock retaining wall pic related. Just ordered 10 tons of stone:
>>102644807Fuck all these doomers. Just get one of these with some RAM, two 14tb HDD's and whatever OS floats your boat (I like Truenas). Literally under $500 you can have a home media server that sips power and will last 10+ years without major maintenance.Or you can go to Walmart and rub shoulders with spic-niggers hoping to get a shit 480p DVD.Choice is easy for me.
>>102658780holy fucking reddit kys now
>>102644671oh yes. The famous scene when he screams "WE EXIST IN A COMMUNITY!!!!" and then shoots Dustin Hoffman
>>102664537If this is your backyard I'm jelly this is gorgeous.
I have a lot of books.
I literally don't have enough space to save all I want. A whole series weights tons of GBs and 1 TB hard rice costs like 100€

>>102644671is that the scene where due to welfare cuts he can't get SSRIs from his wise black lady social worker, which would have solved all of his problems? what a based and redpilled movie
>>102660767You will never be God's chosen people.
My biggest issue is keeping the power on. I'm gonna get a generator anyone have a recommendation?
>>102651478Try slowing the fuck down for once. Make the trip to your local library or Walmart, buy or borrow a cheap movie on DVD, walk your lazy ass to the disc player, and watch it. When you’re done, if you own it you can ask one of your friends if they want to borrow it. Maybe it will spark some fun conversations. You also know you’ll get to see them again when they return the disc. Physical media is a very pro-social activity. We can rebuild our society this way. I’m sick of everyone being online and forgetting their irl friends so they can rot in their room all day.
>>102644562>NOOOOOO I MUST CONSOOOOOOOMWhy are americans like this?Just go out, have a walk, talk with your loved ones, pet a dog, sky gaze, do something, try to make something with your hands, do something meaningful with your free time, rather than consume media and brainrot.

>>102646148Reading comprehension is really fucking bad and dogma only makes it worse
>>102672261>Reading comprehension is really fucking badIt's not even about reading comprehension. They really never read Paul's epistles about who the real sons of Abraham are. Sometimes it seems to me that the jew-worshiping Americans only read the OT.
