Calgary was a great place to grow up in the 60s and 70s 

I was born in Calgary and was raised just outside of it. Not to bore the shit out of anyone, but living outside of it for 40 + years was more than I could personally stand. I actually am the "real Deal", rodeoing for 23 years and working in practically all fields of employment. It is a town full of pretentious wanna-be's that once a year form a gigantic 8 foot deep screw-fest called the Stampede. I entered it twice and can say without a doubt that lethbridge even has a better show. They say that line about the best form of flattery, but that town go's so far past the point it is unbearable to contestants, so 90% don't even stick around long enough to eat. I believe the best thing I have done is move 2 hours further away from that puss-factory with plans of even getting further out. Acreages get bought up by lawn mowing oil idiots and nice places in town are meth labs. Sound a little sour? Take a good look around you while your in town and then try to find some silence out of town. If your not from here, heed my words. In the 60s and 70s, It was good, from a kids point of view. but rest assured, Calgary sucks.

The 70's House 

One more reason that MTV needs to be shot down. 12 "unsuspecting" kids being brought into a bullshit stereotype "70's style" abode. Not everyone wore short shorts, polyester, brown plaid, or listened to disco.
DIPSHITS! Ever hear of KISS, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Cream, or Judas Priest? They ain't disco. Why don't you have the contestants dance to "Detroit Rock City" or "You Really Got Me" instead of "the Hustle"? God, MTV. I shall kill you in your sleep.

The 70's 

The 70's was the best decade ever. The height of the the Muscle Car wars, Marvel Comics was amazing, Led Zepplin, Queen, Pink Floyd, Marvin Gaye, Free, Blood Sweat and Tears, America, Moody Blues are all examples of the 70's at their finest.everyone would smoke a blunt and nobody cared. Blacks going into White schools for the first time, and jobs aswell They even went on to become police officers, firemen, tv/movie stars, lawyers & comedians for the first time.

The 1970s was also when Hip-Hop music, first ever Betamax, VHS player, pong (1st video game), and cassette tapes were invented. Need I say more
Me: Man I wish I lived back in the 70's, driving a muscle car, and blasting Led Zeppelin all day.
Friend: Amen brother.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
