Since HL2 will be/is 20 yrs. old and we're all getting nostalgia! Let's talk about those days!

IIRC during the first week of its release, I bought its retail from a local Best Buy with a $10/10% sale or something back then. According to my detailed https://zimage.com/~ant/antfarm/about/toys.html history, I recently upgraded my Windows gaming PC with these parts: "... ATI Radeon 9800 Pro video card, an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.2GHz 512KB Socket 754 single core CPU, ASUS K8V SE Deluxe (VIA K8T800 Socket 754 ATX; VIA VT8237 South Bridge; Revision 2; onboard sound disabled; onboard NIC not used/connected (using 3COM NIC for network) and can't be disabled or else Promise Raid won't be activate), a 3 fan HDD Peeze cooler, 1 GB of PC3200 Kingston RAM (CAS 3), and Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS." I think I also got Windows XP OS too.

Anyways, I remember playing this game over my long Thanksgiving weekend. It was amazing! Very smooth, pretty, and fun! I don't remember how long it took me to finish it. It was a great sequel. Of course years later, episodes 1 and 2 (The Orange Box -- will talk about that in three years). I don't have and want a VR to play Alyx.

What about the rest of you? Also, remember PlanetHalfLife.com web site? RIP, & GameSpy's web sites.

Your fat boy had a stroke.
Look at him walk. He’s dragging his right leg, almost fell trying to get in his garbage truck (stupidly reminding everyone what he thinks about Puerto Rico and Latinos).
Look at his face, compare it with 6 months ago. That’s stroke face.
Listen to him talk, rambling, forgetting words, names, places, his own plans, everything.

Get him help. This is elder abuse.
It’s blatantly obvious why he won’t release his medical records, he’s about to keel over.

WTF!?! Now he’s saying going to protect women from themselves and their own reproductive rights “whether the women like it or not”.

WHAT? THERE ARE PHOTOS OF TRUMP ON EPSTEIN ISLAND WITH TOPLESS YOUNG TEENAGE GIRLS ON HIS LAP FROM THE LATE 90s!?! HOLY SHIT!

Tucker Carlson has revealed that he believes he was attacked by a demon…because when sleeping with his wife and 4 dogs he was scratched. This is an unambiguous sign of severe mental illness.

Fun, another felon’s lawyer, Chesebro, has been disbarred for trying to steal the election in 2020. He pleaded guilty btw.

Forbes says your fat boy is over $2 BILLION in Debt. He has no cash left…none. His properties are all under water (when he sells them he will owe more money, not collect). 😂

I remember back when “pranks” were in good fun, not just random idiots viciously assaulting strangers in public then crying “It’s a prank!” when their victim defends themselves, sometimes with deadly results.

If the body camera wasn’t on he still would have gotten a verbal warning.
It’s clear he 100% expected to be let off because he’s a criminal cop, like every single one on the job today.
They do not serve the public.
They do not protect the public.
They abuse and lie to the public for fun, often with deadly results, then cover for each other.

Why did they make this?
Who is the audience?
I found it insultingly awful.
Not funny, not fun. Just an abuse of the characters I love.
They took everything good out and left a dry empty husk of half hearted memberberries. Without the “Rick and Morty” tie in, this would never get aired, it’s absolutely *terrible imo.

Jesus fucking Christ, now he tried to force his way into Arlington Cemetery with a commercial camera crew to use it as a backdrop for a campaign commercial and when cemetery staff tried to stop them because that is 100% not allowed by federal law by anyone at Arlington his staff had a verbal and physical fight trying to physically force their way in and take photos and video footage anyway by assaulting the service men stationed there, then took photos and videos anyway using their phones…then lied and claimed the on duty service man who was doing his job and protecting the sanctity and enforcing the rules/laws of the national cemetery was having a mental health episode and went crazy. In fact, it was just another instance of zero respect for the military except as a prop in campaign advertising and zero respect for rules or laws to the point of assault when they are applied.

Again, it is 100% illegal to take photographs at Arlington for campaign purposes, and no waiver CAN be given to that firm law except by act of congress.

Every excuse given so far has fallen apart immediately because they are blatant lies, he and his people just don’t think laws and rules apply to them, ever. They claimed they would release footage to prove they had permission (which they did not, permission is NEVER given to use Arlington in political ads…NEVER…it would require an act of congress) but have not released any footage because it doesn’t exist.

This morning he lost his mind and tweeted dozens upon dozens of Qanon posts, just in case anyone forgot he is Qanon, which is a terroristic misinformation spreading treasonous organization advocating sedition again, and the felon is 100% on board.

What unbelievable pieces of shit you follow. Getting in physical fights at military funerals because they want to illegally use the event as advertising for their anti military anti democracy candidate.

4 new felony charges brought by another new grand jury today. 😂

😂 MAGAT George Santos, the face of maga corruption, plead guilty to every felony charge (8+) in hopes of reducing his sentence from over 20 years to as little as 2 (but likely 8 ). 😂

Have fun with replacing homosexual transvestite Vance with the road kill eating brain worm.

Bonus- DJT is at 1/3 it’s day one price and falling like a stone as the day when the felon sells out nears…he’s going to get a huge $75 in the end. Another massive business failure despite having every single advantage possible…all at the expense of his investors, not himself.
Also, while Taylor Swift hasn’t sued for $100 million for abuse of her image when he claimed she endorsed him, her fans HAVE started a REAL organization called “Swifties For Harris” in response to his fake AI generated movement using her fans he called “Swifties for Trump”. 😂

Why all the hate (not referencing Ozzy Man, the "Interwebz")? Raygun knows she's not gonna win, and Breaking isn't getting another chance as an Olympics event anytime soon, if ever, so might as well have fun. It's not hard to understand.

I found her amusing when I was watching it live, she wasn't mocking anyone or breaking imo, but it did took me a few seconds to "get" the entertaining routine. The judging panel's all-zeroes was harsh but at least I understand it's based on technical merits, not artistic ones. Still... not even .0001 pt? Seems like a bit out of anger/shock, but whatever...

Don't take things too seriously internetz, have some sportsmanship & solidarity for those that know they're there for the "participation trophies" and not for the way-too-distance-for-them medals. All the trolling from the couch potatoes truly reflect poorly on humanity.

Uh-oh! Boebert is under investigation for using meth during the period she purchased and carried a gun….and it’s worse than Hunter. The accuser, a long term family friend and employee named Wheeler, claims to have personally witnessed Boebert using meth on multiple occasions with multiple named individuals and claims to have evidence to prove it, and said Boebert drew her gun on her in a meth rage and said she would shoot her in the face if she had voted for a Democrat.
Purchasing or carrying a gun while using illicit drugs is a felony, brandishing one while high is likely a major felony. 😂
Is anyone surprised? There’s never been an elected official that was more white trash.

Fun…for days #trumpisacoward is trending on TRUTHSOCIAL! Even his cultists see no other explanation for running away from debating Kamala…because there is none.

Fun!
Look up Michele Fiore, a Trump-loving Nevada Republican, she has been indicted by a grand jury for allegedly embezzling money from donors who believed that they were giving to a charitable foundation dedicated to building memorials for slain police officers, just like the felon did among his other fraudulent charities he used as piggy banks (like the $6 million he stole from his veteran’s charity).
This after getting busted violating campaign finance laws in her 22 campaign for state treasurer when she ran a straw donor scheme to get around $10000 maximum donation limits.
Party of law(lessness) and (dis)order indeed! 😂

And SHOCKER!!! It has been confirmed by multiple sources who were there and involved that the late start to the NABJ event was NOT due to audio issues but because the felon, last minute, insisted he NOT BE LIVE FACT CHECKED and the NABJ said no, they would…he refused to take the stage until they relented over a half hour later, then he lied as usual and blamed the event staff.

Excellent! I missed “show”.
POINTS!

Edit: Agreed, not for every comment, but this one was short and so chocked full I thought it might be fun.
My mother was one of the top editors in the country, so grammar Nazi-ing is in my DNA.

I've got 7 if you include not capitalising the N in Newt and the tautology/redundancy/repetition in 'pro Harris supporter'. (In short, they're: N, yo, realizing, his, show, your, pro)

I'm ignoring the slightly infantile usages of of 'can never' and 'also', and the commonly-acceptable capitalisation of TOOL. I'm also assuming 'your' was supposed to be 'you' and not 'you're'.

This is a fun game, but not one I'd want to play with all of Bob's comments. Your time's better spent 'obliterating his arguments' rather than his use of language.

Because you hate and disrespect the military and hate the right to vote (for others), the MAGGOT campaign is sueing Michigan for allowing veterans to register to vote at the VA and actually using a few as polling places.
One more group you morons have turned on, and are turning on you.

Blacks- 0% support
Women - 31% and dropping fast
Military - well under 50% and dropping fast
The only group you are winning with is middle age to old uneducated white men. You. Just the deplorable white trash. Have fun with each other incels screwing those couches. Vance can show you a few things.

What the hell does this have to do with this video?

It's fair enough making arguments or even trolling on political threads - it's fun watching a newt obliterate your arguments - but don't pollute the rest of the sift with spam.
