That is so dumb. How would such a small group have that much pull? It seems like gooners would vastly outnumber them.
In the 90s, in my country, a single person made a webpage stating that Microsoft minesweeper promotes war and violence, so since windows 95 if the Windows locale is set to my language, minesweeper becomes "flower field" and you have to find flowers instead of mines
It was due to the actual active minefields in certain region of the EU. But i was always so confused by that name. 'Prato fiorito' does it mean that if I step on the flowers i explode? This is what i thought back than.
That sounds like the whatever version of engrish and I love it
It's meant to be read like a boris skit, than it works flawlessly.
And if you step on the flower you DIE.
tbf, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild enforces those principles too.
These people are loud, most gooners don't want to be loud about it
Never on the bus, no.
