An air bnb in vegas for 4 nights depending on how dodgey you’re willing to go can get as low as 40-60 bucks a night, in the Town itself, depending how n whether or not you go during the new vegas day thing will range form 50 bucks to 200 a night. So a four day trip’ll cost ya around 400 bucks, take an extra 200 for food and other shit.

Sarsaparilla is not root beer but an ingredient of it. Modern root beer is not like the old real stuff which used to be used like a medicinal tonic. It is sweet and not like genuine sarsaparilla. US said safrole caused cancer and outlawed it but it was excessive doses on rats in the study and in truth it causes hallucinations in some. Like Absinth was banned for years. It was to control your mind. They don't care about your health. Sarsaparilla will not have the complexity of flavor of root beer, modern or authentic.

This video encapsulates what makes America great. It’s about coming together over a shared love or something, whether you’re lgbt or a gun lover or an autist, unironically. Screw these politics these days that divide people red or blue just divides. Stuff like this binds all of us together no matter what our background or beliefs are. It’s true freedom!

I mean Tim Cain was an advocate for the dignity of transgender during the development of the original Fallout. Fallout 2 was one of the first mainstream games to feature same-sex marriage. Fallout 2 also had a cut faction called, The Rainbow Confederation made up of all gay members. So it's no surprise that Fallout is a stable within the LGBT community when it did so much to highlight it before most mainstream media. The Sims being another great example a few years later.

In most of North America, Sarsaparilla is just called Root Beer. It is a traditional North American drink made from the sassafras root, thus both the names Sarsaparilla and Root Beer. It is a very unique taste that most people outside of North America don't enjoy. But it is an acquired taste like coffee that you learn to love with time.

[@raggersragnarsson6255]

It's a love or hate taste for sure. Personally I like it and Im from the UK. I grew up in a time when you appreciated any treat back in the 70s. I ate tripe and vinegar as a treat when I was very small bizarrely. I wouldn't now, but I did then.

[@mmmikeyyy]

I'm not sure it was the real thing, but I was served root beer a while ago and I thought it tasted like toothpaste.

6 years ago, I was driving across the Czech Republic trying to find a little town called Rataje because I had seen it in a video game. I was disappointed to find that there's not an awful lot going on there and the castle I was expecting is now a ruin. Since then, it's my understanding that fans of Kingdom Come: Deliverance have made similar pilgrimages and the locals have responded now that they finally know why so many weirdos are coming to check out their town in the middle of Bohemian nowhere. And there's now a museum there dedicated to the game. 😂

[@vavra222]

Im Czech but im fucking lazy, but ever since they announced the 2nd game, which will be taking place around Bohemian Paradise, where i basically spent my early childhood and have only good memories of, i decided to visit as much of the original game´s locations as i can next year. I can only wish i had the money to just visit places from movies or games in the US, mostly things like Goodsprings - small places, im not a huge city fan. I would probably need to be pretty rich so i could afford to bring a few kegs of our beer with me, for the heat of course...

@@francestaylor9156 I will admit that the Southwest appeals to me a lot. Specifically the Four Corners region, I want to see canyons and other weird geological stuff that looks like it belongs on another planet. The Pacific Northwest also looks beautiful. Shame about the commies, but it's not really the cities I'm interested in. Except for maybe the Asian restaurants in Seattle. I live decently close to new england, I've been thinking about visiting some of the more old fashioned parts. Went to Southern Vermont in autumn a couple years ago and it was beautiful. Too many tourists though. All that said, I'd pick a trip to Scotland or Greece over any of these.

Root beer and sarsaparilla are NOT the same thing. Root beer is made from sassafras and sarsaparilla is made from sarsaparilla.
