Hah. Remember in the Xbox 360 era when everything looked like it was wrapped in saran wrap? I hated that so much. It’s like - some if not most objects are not that reflective. Yes light bounces off of things, but it’s such an “all or none” solution. Things in real life are so much more diffused.

Protect it from what, vacancy? Like, sure he got the name a little wrong. But call in the troops to… Uh… Open up stores in the district? I think that’s the crazy part. The headline should be more like “Trump orders a call to arms in a business district because stores are empty because the economy is in shambles and other reasons too” or something like that. I dunno, I’m not a headline writer.

I got in trouble in Middle School for printing out an entire FF6 guide from GameFAQs. It had all of the items and their stats, all of the spells, espers, maps etc. It was absolutely massive and the administration was not happy about me using all of that paper and toner. Already printed it, sucks to be them. 3 hole punched it at home and put it in a binder. It was awesome.

Hell yeah. I’m gonna overuse this shit and just have 2 gigantic teeth. One on the top and one on the bottom. No more flossing for me. Fuse those bad boys together. I’ll have the smile of an N64 game character.

Yup. Like if one of your blinkers is blinking faster than the other, you likely have a bulb out on the side of the fast blinker. Brilliant engineering.

He responded to this rumor in his autobiography saying “If I really got my ribs removed, I would have been busy sucking my own dick on The Wonder Years instead of chasing Winnie Cooper. Plus, who really has time to be killing puppies when you can be sucking your own dick? I think I’m gonna call the surgeon in the morning”

“I think it’s mostly, if not all, a matter of better diagnostic tools and procedures.”

This is the winner right here. If you ask your parents or grandparents about people they went to school with who were “a little weird” or “really shy” or “really into trains” or whatever it is. It was all just undiagnosed autism. The percentage of people with autism hasn’t changed. The percentage of people correctly diagnosed has. And of course it’s a spectrum. In the past they only diagnosed severely autistic people. Now with more understanding of it, we realize that it comes in several mild flavors as well.

And they are literally naturally occurring. Like… I wonder how mad conservatives get when it rains on a sunny day, and a rainbow comes popping up in the sky reminding them of their closeted homosexuality.

Shorts over bathing suits is such a weird one to me. Like… Bathing suit is fine in the water, going in to the water, getting out of the water. But you best cover that shit up for lake activities or whatever. Like what a weird line to draw.

Edit: You know what? These are all really weird. Like… No white t shirts? Are you afraid of them getting wet and maybe revealing the bathing suit they are probably wearing underneath? No two peice bathing suit? Because heaven forbid you show off the most sexual part of the body - the stomach? Like… That’s the difference between a one peice and a two piece, right? The stomach? The back? Maybe it’s to reduce the chance of a “wardrobe malfunction”?

I dont know.

Or filing cabinets. Which is where sensitive information was often stored in the days of floppy disks.

Somewhere inbetween. I had a friend who was a cook and I didn’t know shit about cooking. He would come over, then we would go to the supermarket and smell the different produce, and look at the meats and come up with something to cook. We would buy it, go back and chef it up. Learned a whole lot about cooking and flavor profiles etc. Some of the best times I’ve ever had.

I’m a groomsman in his wedding in November. For the bachelor party we are renting a cabin with some people. We are going to dream up a menu, go shopping, and chef it up again. I can’t wait.

That’s the thing about reading the list out loud. You can just skip over the names of the people you want to protect.

Release the files.

Is he on trial for inspiring other people to commit violent acts? Is that one of the charges he is facing? No, He is on trial for murder. How other people respond to that is not his responsibility.

Additionally, he is still on trial. He has not been found guilty. So they are saying that something he may or may not have done is responsible for other people potentially doing something that they haven’t yet done.

What a bunch of irrelevant hogwash.

I can tell when I’m driving from NY into CT when suddenly there’s traffic for no reason and everybody is driving like an asshat.

Dicktater.

As in tater-tot dick.

I remember during the covid shutdown my gym was closed (NYSC) . I called their main support line or whatever and was like “I need to cancel my membership” and they told me that I needed to go into the gym to cancel. I told them that the gym was closed and I can’t go in. They then told me I needed to get in touch with the manager of that gym somehow.

Called my credit card company. Disputed the charges, and told them to block any further charges from NYSC. That gym shut down before the lock down even ended.

Bought some weights and bands for my apartment. Downloaded a free app for calisthenics routines. Haven’t been to a gym since.

It’s not quite the same as having all of the machines and weights, but it sure as hell is more convinient. If I ever get the pleasure of owning a home, building out a more complete gym in the basement/garage is a goal.

If you’re talking about the shooting in NYC, that was Blackstone, not Blackrock. Two entirely different companies with very similar names.
