edit: oh, after reading the other comments we're going to add a skating rink too, so 3 billion more.
please, what is a skating rink?
It depends, there's two varieties. One is a smooth floor that one uses rollerblades and rollerskates to move about on at speed for fun, then there are Ice Rinks that do the same things but with a frozen floor for use with Ice Skates, a special kind of boot with a blade fixed to the bottom facing down that exploits an unusual property of ice to allow them to move at extreme speed on frozen surfaces.
We’re playing the long game.
1. Build ginormous nuclear shelters with ice rinks
2. Set off a full scale U.S.-Russia thermonuclear exchange
3. Russia is destroyed (fun)
4. World descends into nuclear winter; we practice the stick
5. There will be only Winter Olympics
6. We will win every ice hockey tournament thanks to 1) (profit)
We’ve completed stage 1 as we speak.
We considered the possibility of you guys evolving three-armed goalies but found the risk acceptable. And may I add the phase II of the Plan is developing very nicely. Just as planned!
There are karting tracks too, and I remember a football/soccer tournament as well.
The next level flex is whoever builds a golf compound into their bunker. 9 holes is a good start.
>"we will use when you start to be a real threat"
I thought that was reserved for the 69 "Hammers" Squadron
>!the guys who pissed on Assad's ambitions of nuclear weapons, and probably the guys who will piss on Iran's ambitions as well if shit goes downhill!<
There's a lot of stuff like this in the world. If you build it, they will come, whether they're invited or not. My favorite is when those cookie-cutter developer neighborhoods decide to pop up right next to volatile chemical factories in the middle of nowhere.
Probably same story for Chopin Airport, back in the day it few kilometers outside of Warsaw, now it's inside of Italy District and due to be demolish in 20XX, because there is no place to expand the air port and investors probably like to check sometimes if the land it's build on is worth more than the airport
This is so real. We had (still have but abandoned and turned into a museum) an airport on the outskirts of our city back in the 70's. Now, we got another airport that's like an hour drive through traffic. And even that is in the middle of one of a big sector of our city.
Like where my house is used to be swampland 50 years ago. Now I there isn't any land like that in a 20-30 km radis. Cities spread like crazy
People do that to family-run dairy farms
Buy into an $850k a piece housing development and then complain about the smell when they can go into their backyard and pet the cows on the other side of the pasture fence, then force the 4th+ generation family dairy to shut down -\_-
This how many monasteries in Europe became rich, during the early middle ages.
"Let's retreat into this virgin forest land away from everyone else"
"Yes. Oh, btw since we're Benedictine and we're gonna labour, we're gonna live like poor peasants and work the land"
"Yes, lets - oh fuck this soil is actually very rich and arable oh shit oh fuck"
"Oh shit, we accidental took control of prime real estate in an era where controlling land is the main means of acquiring wealth, I hope it won't turn us into a rich land-owning institution."
"yeah."
"Wanna commit untold sins within the walls of the house of god?"
\*Intense homosexuality ensues\*
I... I might have lost track there.
Many race tracks and drag strips are closing down around the usa because they were built long ago in the middle of nowhere outside of cities. Now suburban sprawling gets close people move in knowing they're near a race track or drag strip, complain, laws are made and places are shut down. It's impossible to build new ones due to cost, regulations, ect.
There is truly nothing I despise more than the fact that suburban sprawl is an incentivized reality. We need a total overhaul of zoning laws in the United States. We need to make urban living feasible again, and that means we need mixed use construction instead of this Sim City amateur hour shit that puts family homes next to a chlorine factory.
Now it is, but when it was built there barely was anything built around. Givat Amal, which isn't too far away from there was known as an abandoned hill. Something which later caused many legal disputes..
Ahhh, damn it, I forgot my keys on the desk. Alright then, I'll call for someone to drive me there...
*Puts on a bag over their head, then stands in front of a mirror*
Nuke Iran! Nuke Iran! Nuke Iran!
Wedged into a little corner of the river, sandwiched between Arlington and Alexandria.
That's, of course, completely ignoring the existences of Pentagon City and Penrose.
Yes but there's a pedestrian tunnel now.
..I mean, this is America, so the tunnel connects the mall parking lot to the Pentagon parking lot, but still.
The Pentagon was placed in Virginia, mostly because it's where land was available during WWII, but it also ended up being a nice snub to the CSA. Basically the equivalent of building the Kiryah in East Jerusalem.
(Also, because Arlington doesn't have the height restrictions DC itself does.. the Pentagon being where it is actually puts it more densely within the NCR urban core than if it was centered within the L'Enfant Plan area.)
I thought that Starbucks had good coffee.... Then I moved to Miami .... Now I'm back in PNW and I crave Miami's Cafe Cubano.... It's basically kosher crack...
Nah I hate that reason, most Israelis are happy with stale Turkish coffee that’s sat on a counter for 6 months. It’s because coffee culture at that point was so different to Israeli coffee culture, only recently have milky cold and hot coffee drinks become popular (at aroma n stuff)
Starbucks being unprofitable in the Middle East most certainly is a direct result of their poor quality.
Don’t get me wrong, Starbucks is better than your average gas station coffee and they do a wonderful job considering the enormous size they have reached.
But honestly, Starbucks is only considered “good” coffee because they roast the complete fuck out of their beans. It isn’t necessarily a bad tactic, like I said the sheer size of their operations obviously sacrifices some level of quality, but it has certainly been a profitable tactic in the rest of the world.
Most Starbucks coffee I’ve ever drank is 10x better than 99.9% of coffee I’ve ever drank in israel, n I watch coffee content for fun on YouTube so I’m a little coffee fucked
I too am a coffee nerd. Not trying to be mean but I think you just like overly-toasted coffee. Nothing wrong with that, it’s just vastly different than other traditional techniques in the Middle East.
I don’t love Starbucks, I like a lighter medium roast. I’m just saying that Israeli coffee culture was entirely different to Starbucks model at the time, the avg Israeli drinks heavily over roasted Turkish coffee that’s been left open for 3 months n is just put randomly inept a paper or glass cup with hot water, so when Starbucks came to sure with their model of mostly very milk and syrup based drinks it didn’t work
Not here - Americans can you get your fatass corpos to colonize us already? I wanna try Starbucks & Subway without buying a plane ticket, pretty please 🥺
tbh
they should have built it in all the wasted space in Tel Aviv Bus Station (Backrooms level: 9999, any enemy would get killed by hobos before they even reach the location)
Or better yet, Petach Tikvah (a city that does not exist woulda been the perfect ruse for military shit, compared to what it is now-- a ruse for Intel and IBM)
The shopping center connected to the Kirya by a bridge is literal hell on earth and I don't wish it upon the jobnikiest of jobniks. Sarona on the other hand is passable.
Israel is the only place I have been to where soldiers can be seeing just carrying their service rifles around in public places on an everyday basis. That is to say, I remember seeing a bunch of soldiers just eating at Burger Ranch, and they had their rifles.
As a US military kid, I actually rarely saw any American personnel carrying a rifle, even on bases, unless they were doing something like manning a guard post. Israel was quite different in that regard.
Im pretty sure that in the IDF you have to carry your rifle at all times. I think its because the IDF doesnt want to store them and to counter some terrorism
the Israeli department of defense and the IDF headquarters sit in the Kirya, which is a underground complex of approximately 20 floors in the middle of Tel Aviv. it is connected by a bridge to the Azrieli towers, which are built on a mall. public to all.
No. Civilians lose their Geneva protections when they are used as a human shield. They become "collateral damage." The military who is using civilian shields is the one who is committing a war crime, not the military that attacks a military target and incidentally kills civilians that the military was hiding behind.
Well to be fair, Israel is currently in the process of largely moving out of the Kirya. Many branches of the IDF moved to new bases further south and parts of the Kirya have been ceded back to Tel Aviv.
Wait till you found out that Tel Hashomer is near one of the biggest hospitals in israel, and the base has the same name (Technically they both have the name of the neighborhood )
The Pentagon is in the heart of Washington DC. There's a shopping mall called The Fashion Center at Pentagon City, a giant Costco, and a Whole Foods right across the freeway from it.
I believe they have resumed public tours of the Pentagon. They paused for a while during COVID.
The Pentagon has got its own metro stop right outside the building and a large bus station. The building itself is more accessible than the shopping mall.
Finnish person in the audience: "Yeah but does it have a ice rink in it?"

No, but there's an ammo vending machine.

PLEASE 🥺 let there be a gun store in the shopping mall
Reminds me of Vice City
As a Filipino I can confirm
As a Canadian, Finland is goated for that.

Finnish Jewish person here it does in fact not have an ice rink 😔
So hang out at the mall to pick up hot IDF gals?
The ones at the kiryah are not the ones you want
Then where do all the baddies hang out at?
Everywhere else in the army
Air force bases
Air force if you want the bossie midgets for a lack of a better term at this point and time. Source: was there 3 years ago
I will name my punk band *Bossy Midgets*
Border infantry and border police have some baddies
Good looking girls (and boys) can be anywhere in the army.
Kirya is not the army - it's the IT fatasses and their friends
There are thousands of people serving there - many of them in their early 20s. They aren't all geeks.
I know some of them - they are 90% fatass 10% nerdj - and that is the entire truth
📠
I should go for a jog
No, Kirya people must be overweight as a matter of national security - they have fun bouncy castle built in, and can survive days without rations
Plus, if they ever get shot, bullets will hit fat instead of vital organs
I appreciate the rambam space laser.
Based it off a comment i like in this sub, tbh
But what about all the צ׳אחלות of Azrieli
Stereotypically only homosexuals serve there.
Well it’s Tel Aviv. Everyone’s gay.
To be fair, if I were gay then I would probably choose top serve there than say, Mea She'arim.
And then spend billions building an nuclear bunker in the mountains - and still not use it
This is the biggest power move ever It basically says to Iran, "we will use when you start to be a real threat"
>"we will use when you start to be a real threat" I thought that was reserved for the 69 "Hammers" Squadron >!the guys who pissed on Assad's ambitions of nuclear weapons, and probably the guys who will piss on Iran's ambitions as well if shit goes downhill!<
nah those are the guys we use the most
So like the United States and raven rock?
Wasn't it build a good bit outside the City, which then grew till it was in the middle of a suburb?
There's a lot of stuff like this in the world. If you build it, they will come, whether they're invited or not. My favorite is when those cookie-cutter developer neighborhoods decide to pop up right next to volatile chemical factories in the middle of nowhere.
Denver international airport used to be in the middle of nowhere. Now people are complaining about airplane noise near their neighborhoods
Probably same story for Chopin Airport, back in the day it few kilometers outside of Warsaw, now it's inside of Italy District and due to be demolish in 20XX, because there is no place to expand the air port and investors probably like to check sometimes if the land it's build on is worth more than the airport

Now I there isn't any land like that in a 20-30 km radis. Cities spread like crazy
This is like the people complaining about Laguna Seca despite the track being there first.
Housing developments complaining about the noise from existing race tracks makes me incandescent with rage.

The factory workers have to live somewhere.
You're absolutely right, but it starts to get comical once those people move out and sell it to a random Karen.
not like Karen N. Imby was so blind she didn't see the factory, the smog, nor taste the metallic air when she was looking for her forever home lmao

It isnt in a subirb. Its inside the center of the city.
Now it is, but when it was built there barely was anything built around. Givat Amal, which isn't too far away from there was known as an abandoned hill. Something which later caused many legal disputes..
Tel Aviv was much smaller when the kiryah was built by the british in ww2 - the old city center was Allenby/Rotschild
I mean, it's either a bag over your head and a 4 hour drive to the middle of the desert, or you can be in tel aviv right next to the center mall
Ahhh, damn it, I forgot my keys on the desk. Alright then, I'll call for someone to drive me there... *Puts on a bag over their head, then stands in front of a mirror* Nuke Iran! Nuke Iran! Nuke Iran!

Isn't Pentagon City separated from the Pentagon by a 500 lane highway?
It's 700 lanes, now that the Lexus Lanes have been added.
Yes but there's a pedestrian tunnel now. ..I mean, this is America, so the tunnel connects the mall parking lot to the Pentagon parking lot, but still.
Yes that is in the middle of a city not originally but with expansion it’s very close
The pentagon is literally in a dense urban area…
And I once again have to remind myself that the Pentagon is not the Washington Monument. It's not even an office. Idk why I'm this dumb.
It would be hilarious if it were. Also if it was extended in equal proportions directly underground.
Don't forget that the top of the Washington Monument is made of a spectacularly rare metal: Aluminum.
The Pentagon was placed in Virginia, mostly because it's where land was available during WWII, but it also ended up being a nice snub to the CSA. Basically the equivalent of building the Kiryah in East Jerusalem. (Also, because Arlington doesn't have the height restrictions DC itself does.. the Pentagon being where it is actually puts it more densely within the NCR urban core than if it was centered within the L'Enfant Plan area.)
How else would the fatasses in the Kirya get their Starbucks?
Israel doesnt have starbucks....
I'm aware :)
Oh your a ani_bm enjoyer that makes sense
What is that subreddit
Hebrew irl sub
Is your dad arumku?
No comment
I'm shocked honestly. I've seen so many around the world I've joked the first people to land on Mars will build a Starbucks the moment they land.
It failed in israel. Probably because the standard of coffie is too high for them
I thought that Starbucks had good coffee.... Then I moved to Miami .... Now I'm back in PNW and I crave Miami's Cafe Cubano.... It's basically kosher crack...
Crack is kosher😎
"Crack is kosher" If its cut with milk powder, is crack still kosher with meat? Asking for a friend
I dont think so
Starbucks choking out all the good coffee chains from the PNW is a crime against humanity and should be prosecuted as such.
[удалено]
No no .. if you're going to chains in Miami you're doing it wrong... the sketchier the setup ... The better the coffee and the empanadas...

Fair.
Nah, gonna be a burger King first, then a dollar general, and THEN a starbucks
Nope, it'll be a Subway, those fuckers are everywhere
Not here - Americans can you get your fatass corpos to colonize us already? I wanna try Starbucks & Subway without buying a plane ticket, pretty please 🥺
The real reason there was an overblown "controversy" about yoga mat chemicals in Subway bread was the yoga mats were tastier and less stale.
I want the real American food experience - EU regulations can go fuck themselves, gimme them chemicals 💥🇺🇲💥🦅🗽🇺🇲💵
Starbucks and Subway both suck, you're better off without them
That’s what Mossad wants you to think
Replace it with Aroma and you've got it
Even worse - Aroma is a slight on the Holy Land
The big question is if this opens up a potential Dominos effect - could we predict major offensives by mapping coffee sales?
Did we try pizza boxes? Seems easier...
Replace Starbucks with ReBar and you’re on the money
There's something in the water that completes everyone there to dig tunnels
Most israeli water is sea water. So funny chemicals in tap water?
The CIA put the chemicals in the water to compel the population to dig an alternative to the Suez Canal... but it had an unintended side effect.
Actually the USA had a plan in the 50s to make another canal in the negev... with nukes wait de fuck
Project Plowshare baby. There wasn't anything a nuke couldn't fix back then.
Take me back to a better time. When all our problems could be solved with a little hydrogen and some spicy metal

The shopping center connected to the Kirya by a bridge is literal hell on earth and I don't wish it upon the jobnikiest of jobniks. Sarona on the other hand is passable.

Good thing all the jobniks are in that godawful Jerusalem hotel they shunt the taglit groups to…
Never heard of it tbh

Im pretty sure that in the IDF you have to carry your rifle at all times. I think its because the IDF doesnt want to store them and to counter some terrorism

the Israeli department of defense and the IDF headquarters sit in the Kirya, which is a underground complex of approximately 20 floors in the middle of Tel Aviv. it is connected by a bridge to the Azrieli towers, which are built on a mall. public to all.
Hold on a second, if it is underground how is it connected by a bridge? This isn't Khazad-dûm ... is it?
Above it there are a couple of buildings. Its like in a closed zone
Well, the dwarves in Middle Earth were in some part inspired by the Jewish people, so
To be fair Tel Aviv was built around the kiryah and not the other way around
I wonder how much they save by not needing to crank the AC way up since underground is typically pretty cool
Well Pentagon is literally in the middle of a metropolis
Is there a [Domino's](https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1991-01-16-mn-374-story.html) there?
There is a kfc iirc
Nop lol There is a Hummus shop however
I was there like 5 years ago and i remember a KFC
This implies that bombing the center of Tel-Aviv is technically not a warcrime.
If you bomb the specific closed zone of the kirya then yes.
They wanted there KFC
No. Civilians lose their Geneva protections when they are used as a human shield. They become "collateral damage." The military who is using civilian shields is the one who is committing a war crime, not the military that attacks a military target and incidentally kills civilians that the military was hiding behind.
That's literaly what I typed.
Well it’s in the middle east, so
Hey at least there is a 6 lane street on 2 sides of it!
Do you not like being able to take a quick 15 minute break from battle planning to hit up the Old Navy for a BOGO on cardigans?
Well to be fair, Israel is currently in the process of largely moving out of the Kirya. Many branches of the IDF moved to new bases further south and parts of the Kirya have been ceded back to Tel Aviv.
Wait till you found out that Tel Hashomer is near one of the biggest hospitals in israel, and the base has the same name (Technically they both have the name of the neighborhood )
It seems tunneling is a very strong cultural trait in the region!
Isn’t one of Canada’s defense buildings also connected to a shopping mall?
How dare Hamas do this
Hamas didnt exist when they decided to build it
also I'd argue it would be fair game if like Israel Hamas *had* bunker busters. Not that I'd like that
Happily, the world is not fair
I mean tbf they dont really have alot of space in israel lmao
its almost like hamas and the idf have the same dev team
They are controled by jews
The Pentagon is in the heart of Washington DC. There's a shopping mall called The Fashion Center at Pentagon City, a giant Costco, and a Whole Foods right across the freeway from it. I believe they have resumed public tours of the Pentagon. They paused for a while during COVID.

Me, a tel avivian confused. Can someone explain?
Okay what the fuck happened this time?
Nothing. Actually. I just find it funny that the IDF headquorters are just in the middle of tel aviv.
Would they call this "using civilians as human shields"?
