  > Although many disagree with big game hunting all Ernie’s hunts were strictly licensed and above board and were registered as conservation in culling animal numbers Nothing here really indicates that the guy was a bad person, other than some vague categorizations like "he was rich" or "he was a hunter".

  I know this is a joke, but I have this rant locked and loaded, so it's going off. Just fucking lift things. The reason you always see this advice with the beige corporate art style is because that's who invented it. Corporations.

Essentially what they are trying to get you to do is use a powerliftin...
