Kemonomichi Guilty Gear Showdown A video letter from the dark side.

We showed Ogawa the following video letter.

Thoughts on Ogawa

"I wouldn't say I particularly respect him. Ogawa: I get it, I get it."

"If anything, I dislike the guy Ogawa: Yeah, it's mutual."

A long time ago he showed up in my town asking me to play him.

He was looking for advice. But then he wouldn't even try what I told him.

"Try this," I'd say, but then I'd never see him do it.

So why ask me?

And then, just because I said "Zato's pretty strong" on some stream,

he started talking all this trash about me.

I was like, "Haven't you ever called another character strong before?"

Why'd he have to get so mad over something like that?

I even had to apologize over it.

I saw him playing matches at an arcade one time,

and his opponent had his card inserted, but Ogawa didn't.

I wondered why, until I saw his opponent was playing a character who's a hard match-up for Zato.

"Oh, so this guy doesn't insert his card when his chances of winning aren't good."

I dunno how to feel about that.

Who, in your mind, is the best Guilty Gear player?

The best?

Me.

I see.

You can say that with certainty?

I can.

And why is that? What makes you the best?

Because nobody out there is doing anything more impressive than I am.

It's clear to me that you're good.

But Ogawa's even been called the King of Guilty Gear. Thoughts on that?

That was just before I came along.

He may have been good a long time ago.

But now he's nothing special.

Is Zato in fact a strong character?

Yes, I think so.

Do you think you can beat Ogawa?

Well yeah, I'd give myself an 80...90% chance.

It's first to ten, right?

Yeah, in that case...

I'd give myself about a 95% chance.

95%? Even though your opponent's name is practically synonymous with Guilty Gear?

That's right.

I must say, I thought he'd be more, how should I put this...

"Coming up next: Ogawa≒Zato"

The amazing Pirate rescue - Duration: 4:48.

They brought him home two years ago, run over with broken hind legs and one eye hanging out.

It was a Friday morning and our trusted veterinarian in Cienfuegos (CUBA) only operated in the afternoon.

There aren't many veterinarians where we are, who really know about cats and dogs,

so we called an emergency vet who came to operate on him at home.

The operation was done in the courtyard where there was more light. An operating table was improvised on top of some books.

The poor animal hardly needs anesthesia, the state he is in.

I've been told he didn't even stop. The driver who ran him over didn't even stop. They don't care.

After all, it's only a dog. What do they care!

His heart has stopped?

Respiratory failure? Dammit, don't say that.

But he was breathing, only a moment ago.

What?

He's started? Breathing?

This is a mobile operating room improvised in the house.

This animal was run over today supposedly at 9 a.m.

Now it's around 5 in the afternoon and I was able to get them to come and operate on him now.

Before, there was nobody.

Pirate!

What's up Piratín (Lil Pirate)?

UNPROFESSIONAL PEOPLE #3 | Dolan True Stories - Duration: 10:13.

• From rude store clerks to tactless teachers, the Planet Dolan crew re-enact some of the

best true stories from our subreddit about the most unprofessional things we've ever

experienced, part 3.

I'm Nixxiom and I'm Doopie and today we'll both be narrating!

Number 10 was submitted by Solowolfbadass Andiemations

The worst experience Andiemations had was when she went with her mom to parent teacher

conferences.

When she walked into the classroom, the teacher immediately said, "Oh I didn't know your mom

was an immigrant."

Andie was so pissed off, but her mom told her, in Spanish, "What did he say, translate

for me".

She obliviously didn't translate, but instead went up to her teacher and slapped him across

the face and cursed him out in Spanish.

He said, "You're one of them.

If I could I would give you an F, but I can call immigration YOU LITTLE WHORE!"

He screamed it so loudly, everyone in the hallway heard what he had said and called

the principal.

Andie explained what happened, and the principal immediately fired him.

Number 9 was submitted by chubbybun_ Pandora When Pandora first started at her current

job, she needed help with a part of the business she didn't typically deal with.

So, she walked across the building to the person she needed to talk to and, when she

arrived at his cube, Pandora saw his dick in his hand and full-on porn on his computer

screen.

He tried to quickly close the tab and play it off like it didn't happen.

She was so grossed out she just mumbled out an excuse and walked away quickly.

He never looked her in the eye or talked to her since.

Number 8 was submitted by Lunerchild96 Melissa After Melissa had gotten out of classes for

the day, she went to a cafe near campus before going home because she was really hungry and

couldn't wait.

The cafe gave a student discount when an ID was shown, so she did.

The man working the register got angry and tore the ID in half.

He yelled at her, calling her a privileged cunt and telling her to leave or else he would

call the cops.

Melissa didn't understand what was happening because she had been to that cafe multiple

times and nobody ever said anything when she gave her ID.

She started crying and apologizing, then started to leave when the manager came out of the

back and stopped her.

She scolded the employee for cursing and trying to force her to leave.

A couple of people she went to school with happened to be there and comforted her while

glaring at the employee.

The manager told the man they accepted student IDs and that he had no right to refuse someone.

He was fired and told to leave for his inappropriate behavior, and Melissa got her lunch free of

charge.

Number 7 was submitted by aquamarine-thunder MKyleM

In sixth grade, MKyleM's science teacher bragged that he used to be a professional

gymnast and, since he would occasionally teach gym, did backflips for his class to prove

it.

One day, he decided to do a backflip inside the science classroom for some reason.

He didn't have enough room to complete the landing and his legs slammed into a counter

full of chemicals, spilling them everywhere.

The whole school needed to be evacuated because they were worried some of the fumes were toxic.

It happened on the second to the last day of school, and it was MKyleM's last year

there so he has no idea if the teacher was fired.

Number 6 was submitted by Slootydeathtech Cid

Cid works for a medical examiner's office, and one day he went out on a pretty routine

call.

An elderly, ill man died at home and it was their job to talk to the family, take photos,

and get the body back to the morgue.

They got to the house and Cid and his partner introduced themselves to the family, then

started their jobs.

Cid was talking to the cops within earshot of the rest of the family.

Cop #1 started talking about the position the body was found in mockingly, laughing

and making crude gestures.

The other laughed along.

The deceased man's daughter could see and hear everything clearly.

Cid told them that is was unprofessional, and cop #1 shrugged his shoulders and said,

"I think I would want to die too if I lived in a place this shitty!"

Then he left.

Cid was embarrassed about their actions, and the poor family was more traumatized.

He's dealt with plenty of shitty people but nothing quite that mean.

Number 5 was submitted by bubby56789 Danger Dolan

So Dolan had a co-worker at a doctor's office that would go into the bathroom and be in

there for about an hour, and then come out like nothing ever happened.

One day, Dolan went into the bathroom to see what was up.

Then the door slowly creaked open to completely expose his co-worker smuggling cocaine, which

had been going on for a long time.

The idiot had been sneaking drugs into the office in the bathroom for years, and no one

ever knew!

The man was fired on the spot, and the coke was confiscated.

Number 4 was submitted by Zebrawithabowtie Hellbent

The most unprofessional thing Hellbent ever experienced was when he was ten and was at

a dollar store with his dad.

They were at the checkout line behind a fat woman who was buying a bag of powdered doughnuts.

There was a problem with the cash register, so it had to buffer and the lady said it would

take about seven minutes to do its thing.

The fat woman complained a lot so the cashier openly said, "It's not my fault that you're

a big fat ass who can't go five minutes without doughnuts."

Hellbent and his dad, being the horrible people they are, laughed so hard that it hurt, and

the fat lady stormed out.

They still laugh about it.

Number 3 was submitted by LycanthropeLass Shima

Shima went to an interview at a company that sounded legit.

It was in a nice building in a nice part of town.

She was dressed professionally had her resume and references ready and walked in feeling

confident, but didn't expect what was waiting for her behind the door.

The room was full of people waiting to be interviewed, some had been there for over

two hours, and the staff that was supposed to be interviewed were….

something.

There was a woman walking around in an oversized man's t-shirt with no pants on.

Some sort of movie was blaring in the breakroom, which caused whoever was in the other room

to shout into a phone.

This then made whoever the hell was in the breakroom turn up the volume even more…so

it was just a shit show.

But the worst… the worst by far was this one dude, a man going in and out of the room

while slowly licking gummy bears off the palm of his hand while giggling.

He would stop and look at Shima and some of the other women before going in and out of

the door that went from the office to the hallway.

She was only there for a half hour before she booked it.

Number 2 was submitted by KalenaTheZodiac Gooby

An unprofessional experience Gooby had is when her and her family were in a fast food

restaurant.

While they were eating, they overheard a woman gossiping about some people and as curious

humans they listed in... until the woman and the other workers started having a cussing

party.

Gooby's dad got up and asked them politely to stop because he had children there, as

Gooby was 6 at the time her siblings were 3, 5, and 7.

They stopped for a few minutes, than started back up.

So her dad asked for the manager and they said, "Hell no, we don't wanna get fired.

Go sit down."

Her dad got angry and went to the manager's office, leaving Gooby and her siblings at

the table.

They heard them cussing, and they started repeating the words without realizing what

they were actually saying.

Her dad finally came back from talking to the manager and heard them cussing.

He said, "DON'T EVER SAY THOSE WORDS AGAIN"!

The workers looked and laughed, then one of them shouted, "You need to work on your parenting

skills."

Gooby's dad was more angered than ever, and clocked the man in the face before taking

off in their car.

They got 7 people fired that day.

Rock Stars Who Have Gorgeous Daughters - Duration: 6:34.

Male rock stars always seem to end up with the most beautiful women, so it makes sense

that a number of these guys have become fathers to some pretty stunning daughters.

Some of these ladies have followed in the footsteps of their famous dads and pursued

music, while others have branched off on different career paths.

Here are a few rockers with gorgeous daughters you may not know about.

Gavin Rossdale

The journey to fatherhood wasn't easy for Bush singer and guitarist Gavin Rossdale.

In fact, he didn't learn Daisy Lowe was his daughter until she was 14—and after he agreed

to do a paternity test.

As the story goes, Daisy is the result of a one-night-stand with friend Pearl Lowe,

who claims Gavin was difficult to pin down for the DNA test.

In 2015, Daisy, who's now a model, told the Guardian the paternity drama gave her mixed

emotions.

"I was so happy the day I found out Gavin was my dad.

I'd always looked up to him.

But it was still a s---show to get over it.

There's no handbook."

Phil Collins

She doesn't make too much of a fuss about it, but acclaimed actress Lily Collins is

the daughter of iconic '80s singer-songwriter and producer Phil Collins.

Lily insists that her famous connections didn't help her career, telling the Daily Mail,

"My dad never made a call on my behalf to anyone–not to a producer, a director or

a casting agent."

Fun fact: Phil's hit song, "You'll Be in My Heart," from the Disney's Tarzan, was written

for Lily, who grew up loving Disney.

"It was written as a lullaby to me when I was younger.

We grew up watching Disney shows and movies together, so that was his way of kind of being

able to do it for his kids."

Rod Stewart

Kimberly Stewart has made plenty of headlines, but few know about Rod Stewart's other daughters,

Ruby and Renee, seen here as kids in 2003.

Ruby began her career as a model in 2005, walking in London Fashion Week for Karen Walker.

After a brief stint in the fashion world, she branched out into music, following in

the footsteps of her father.

Today, she's part of the country-rock band The Sisterhood.

As for Renee, she's now a working model, she's signed to the Chadwick agency as of the making

of this video.

Lionel Richie

The former Commodores singer has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, and won

five Grammys and 16 American Music Awards.

Over time, the family name also grew synonymous with Lionel Richie's daughter, Nicole, who

took reality TV by storm with her pal Paris Hilton in The Simple Life.

In recent years, yet another Richie has stormed the Hollywood scene: Nicole's little sister

Sofia.

She stirred up a buzz when she was spotted with pop star Justin Bieber in Japan in August

2016, just days before her 18th birthday.

At one point, Sofia told Entertainment Tonight she wanted to be a singer.

For now, she's establishing a career as a model.

Billy Joel

The Piano Man's daughter, Alexa Ray Joel, is making her mark on the music industry,

as well.

The daughter of Billy Joel's ex-wife, model Christie Brinkley, Alexa has released a number

of singles over the years and an EP in 2006.

Alexa made headlines in 2009 when, after a bad breakup, she called 911 and reportedly

told the operator she took some pills, and wanted to end her life.

She was rushed to the hospital, but fortunately, the pills ended up being homeopathic, so they

were essentially impossible to overdose on.

"I wasn't trying to hurt myself.

I wasn't trying to off myself.

I was panicked.

I was not thinking clearly at all."

In recent years, Alexa has made headlines more in tune with her mom's profession than

her dad's.

She appeared in the star-making Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition in 2017.

Keith Richards

With his famously hedonistic lifestyle, you might be surprised that Rolling Stones guitarist

Keith Richards has been awfully strict with his two youngest daughters, models Theodora

and Alexandra Richards.

Theodora told the Sunday Times that the famous rocker didn't allow singing at the dinner

table, and the girls couldn't wear lipstick until they were 16, saying,

"When it came to boyfriends, he was usually great, but there were ones who were too scared

to talk to him or just too eager.

When I was 16, I'll never forget the time he said to one of them, 'Cut it out, or I'll

cut it off.'"

Bono

Born Paul David Hewson , U2's Bono is not only a rocker but a world-class philanthropist,

and his two daughters, Jordan and Eve Hewson, have begun forging their own paths.

According to Fortune, Jordan is a businesswoman and an entrepreneur in the tech field.

And Eve is making her mark in Hollywood, with roles in the TV series The Knick and in films

such as Bridge of Spies and Paper Year.

Gene Simmons

Sophie Simmons, daughter of KISS singer Gene Simmons, has been working to generate buzz

in the world of modeling and music.

When a 24-year-old Sophie stripped down to her bra and underwear for a lingerie ad campaign

in 2016, the Daily Mail reports her curves caused such a controversy about potential

Photoshopping that she addressed the issue in a since-deleted Instagram post, saying,

"Once you thought I was too fat, then too thin, now you think I'm fake…

I worked really hard for this body and I love it, that's all that matters."

In 2012, Sophie tried out for X Factor but was cut after auditions.

But she was persistent, and it paid off in 2015, when Sophie released a cover of Sixpence

None The Richer's "Kiss Me" on the record label that signed KISS decades ago.

Mick Jagger

The Rolling Stones frontman has eight kids with five different women, including daughter

Georgia May Jagger, whose mother is model and actress Jerry Hall.

Georgia is making a name for herself through modeling gigs with Hudson Jeans and Tommy

Hilfiger.

In 2010, she described Mick Jagger's parenting style to Harper's Bazaar.

"He always wanted me to do my best.

I'm quite dyslexic in school.

My dad let me figure out what I wanted to do on my own.

My parents never really lecture me."

As for her head-turning style, she says she sometimes raids her parents' closets, but,

only for the, quote, "'60s and '70s stuff."

"My most treasured items are probably some of my mom's clothes from Studio 54.

I've got a pair of sort of mirrored hot pants that she used to wear when she was my age,

and yeah, they're probably my favorite."

Weyland-Yutani's Intentions with Xenomorph XX121: Company Statement of Interest - Duration: 5:49.

I admire its purity...

A survivor...

Unclouded by conscience... amongst all delusions of morality.

Two centuries ago, we wanted to harness the Creature's superior power for bioweapons applications,

but consider how much more this species has to offer.

The Advances to be made in Pharmacology, bioengineering, defense- possibilities we can't yet dream

of - are without limit.

We have the resources; all we need is the xenomorph.

The urgency of obtaining a speciment demands the attention of every Weyland Yutani employee

worthy of clearance.

There is new data already being collated regarding the the most recent contanct, and as prospects

arise, the decisions we make regarding these opportunities may well define the course of

humanity for centuries to come.

It is time for us to honor the brilliance and ingeniuty shown by sir peter weyland over

three centuries ago, when he set forth to lead us to new worlds.

Sir Peter Visualized solutions to the impossible by seeing further than any man before him.

Now, we look to the Xenomorph and see the future of Weyland Yutani.

Following the catastrophic mishandling of Xenomorph XX121 during more than a century

of the USM's selfish incompetence, it is clearly time for any and all information regarding

the Xenomorph to be returned to private interests.

Contacts in the USM promise delivery of all Xenomorph related data, and we are dedicated

to searhing for value in whatever material they are able to provide.

The science is available.

The Xenomorph can be replicated, if the investors choose to go that route.

We're also encouraging freelance bioscience and bounty teams to acquire specimens; considering

the recent advances in FTL travel, deep space searches can be conducted in days rather than

weeks, weeks rather than months.

Finding and capturing xenomorph specimens has never been more likely.

APPLICATION POSSIBLITIES On the USM Auriga, Doctor Wren and Gedimen

set up a gamut of simple tests, believing that they would "train" drone Xenomorphs to

obey commands.

With the possiblities before them, the military scientists short-sightedly believed that the

best use of the Xenomorph would be as attack soliders.

In the right hands, what more might the Xenomorphs give us?

MEDICAL APPLICATIONS The regenerative rate of Xenomorphs is far

faster than that of humans, and in all recorded contact, there have been no external indicators

of any disease processes.

Initial data collected by AP Ash shows us what appears to be a perfect organism.

A detailed genetic breakdown of the Xenomorph's biology could prove invaluable to humanity,

if applied to the fields of healing, longevity, and biomechanics.

MILITARY RESOURCES Imagine a spray of Xenomorph blood razing

enemy facilities and bunkers.

If the acid can be contained, there is the potential of haroring it within projectiles,

in the same manner explosive-tipped shells are used.

Once we've tested non-degraded samples of XX121's blood, disperal systems can be designed

with the structure or force target in mind.

Weyland-Yutani could be at the forefront of new designer warfare, with any number of xenomorph-based

weapons.

SCIENCES: FABRICATION The Weyland Corporation-Patented cadium Exoskeleton

EVA suit developed in 2064 was the industry standard for centuries.

Consider the resistance to extremes shown by the Xenomorph and what strong, light materials

could be fabricated from a Xeno-based matrix?

From military grade armor and environmental protections to deep space and commercial ship's

hulls, a chemical understanding of the organism's durabe exoskeleton could provide a solid foundation

for fabrication design.

MILITARY: DIRECT CONTACT Initial results from the USM Auriga do not

suggest that the Xenomorph drone can be disciplined as a soldier.

However, the intimated intelligence of the alien queen suggests that she might be motivated

to control the drones.

Regardless, the careful placement of a cache of xenomorph eggs into enemy territory or

an enemy vessel could potentially decimate battalions of adversaries in matter of days,

with minimal risk to our soldiers.

Alternately, enemy subjects could be implanted and released among their comrades.

Certainly, there will be more options available than even we are aware.

Considering the inevitable overthrow of USM control over corporate affairs, we can look

forward to proudly reclaiming our proper designation, Weyland-Yutani, as early as the next core

election year.

It is time to welcome the next generation of researchers and explorers, of creative,

proactive men and women ready to add to the Company's prosperity by advancing humanity's

interests.

Tasking these new young minds with unraveling the secrets of the Xenomorph can only lead

to a new era of influence and affluence for Weyland-Yutani.

How Millennials Will Talk About MUSIC - Duration: 2:28.

My generation had some of the best music that there ever was.

I think that what made music so great

was that unlike all that jibber jabber that the kids listen to these days,

music actually had substance and lyrics that you could actually relate to.

♪ Work, work, work, work, work ♫

That song is a classic.

There just isn't great artists now like we had back in the day.

We had legends like 21 Savage, Drake, Lil Uzi Vert, and the "King of Pop" himself:

Justin Bieber.

Man, that kid had soul.

When I was younger I met this girl.

And I guess you could say that I was 'in love'.

So one time I went to her house.

And I played her favorite song from outside her window.

♪ You can't f*ck with me if you wanted to ♫

And things just took off from there.

And I really think music played a big part in that.

There were so many times when we would just play romantic music

and just slow dance for hours on end.

♪ My b*tch is bad and boujee ♫

Although she made me extremely happy during that time.

The relationship didn't last very long.

Because I found out that..

she shared a Spotify playlist

with another guy.

And I created that playlist..

Army Ranger Who Was Only Player To Stand For Anthem Shocks Americans With What He Did On Veterans D… - Duration: 5:05.

Army Ranger Who Was Only Player To Stand For Anthem Shocks Americans With What He Did On

Veterans Day.

Two days after President Trump blasted NFL players who chose to disrespect the flag in

September, hundreds of players knelt in protest during the national anthem or stayed in their

team locker room.

One team that remained in their locker room was the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Head coach Mike Tomlin stated before the September 24 game that the team would stay in their

locker room during the national anthem, but that is not what ended up happening.

When the national anthem began to play, one player was spotted outside the tunnel with

his hand over his heart.

That player was offensive lineman Alejandro Villanueva, a former Army Ranger who served

three tours in Afghanistan.

Now, Villanueva is planning something rather special for veterans across the country this

Veterans Day weekend that will have red-blooded Americans cheering.

This weekend, many fans will be watching to see what NFL players will do in regards to

their disrespectful national anthem protest.

For months, the American people have witnessed NFL players kneeling during the national anthem

essentially spitting the face of veterans across the country.

It has not been confirmed if teams will kneel during the national anthem during today's

games, but we do know that Alejandro Villanueva has something else planned.

Alejandro Villanueva of the Pittsburgh Steelers is passing out Army decals to all his teammates

to wear on their helmets in today's game against the Indianapolis Colts which to many

fans if a breath of fresh air.

Here is more from ESPN:

The Steelers will recognize Veterans Day this weekend by wearing helmet decals representing

the various Army divisions in an effort led by left tackle Alejandro Villanueva.

Villanueva, whose background as a former Army Ranger made him a prominent figure in the

league's controversy over the national anthem, told ESPN he is presenting each Steelers teammate

with an Army decal to wear for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts.

A player will represent one Army division, as Villanueva has decals representing 13 different

divisions that he will spread around the locker room.

"It's just a small-unit patch that really doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of

things, but the history behind it means the whole world to a lot of veterans," Villanueva

said.

"They died for that patch.

When you watch the Steelers on Sunday and you see the flash of the 10th [Mountain] division

and the 7th [Infantry] division … you're calling out specific units."

Villanueva was part of two divisions, 10th Mountain and 75th Ranger Regiment, and served

in Afghanistan before becoming an NFL player.

He is pairing the decals with players whose personalities match the spirit of a specific

division.

Villanueva received the decals from the Army football team and said he has cleared their

game-day usage through the Steelers.

As an example of his process, Villanueva will give right tackle Chris Hubbard the 101st

Airborne "Screaming Eagles" Division decal because the player and division are known

for reserved but efficient workmanship.

Backup quarterback Landry Jones gets the 1st Armored Division in part because Jones knows

Villanueva's brother-in-law, who served with that division.

During protests in Week 3, Villanueva stood alone outside of the tunnel during the national

anthem, which he and other players classified as a confusion in the Steelers' attempt

to respond to President Donald Trump's explosive comments about NFL players days earlier.

Villanueva said Veterans Day was an ideal time to honor soldiers through the decals

since the NFL allows it this week.

He has notified coach Mike Tomlin of his plans.

But Villanueva knows that alone won't bridge what he calls a growing divide between the

NFL and parts of the military.

He notices this when he visits veteran hospitals every Tuesday.

"There's tension between the veteran community and the NFL.

You go to VFW's, and they won't show NFL games," Villanueva said.

"[Veterans] don't know if it's, 'Do we have to live in a utopian, perfect country

for you to stand up for the national anthem?'

It's a very tough concept for a lot of veterans to understand.

I go back and forth because I'm in the middle of this whole thing.

I'm a football player, but obviously, the flag is the most important thing to me while

I'm in this country.

"At the end of the day, people love football.

It's a reality.

We shouldn't deprive ourselves of this great sport because of the unfortunate things that

are surrounding things happening off the field."

the damage that has been done.

For months, too many players have spit in the face of our nation's heroes by kneeling

during the national anthem that a simple decal on a helmet isn't enough to erase that disrespect.

the damage done by these nasty protests, but it will take more than a decal to change everyone's

feelings.

What do you think about this?
