I bet it has a few vibrate modes

I would have sworn you were wrong, but I guess I assumed that it was around long before I learned the “correct” term for it. Turns out I just learned it at the same time everybody else did, basically.

Well I don’t fly because I think it’s fun

I try to chill in my window seat and wait for one of the big gaps to open up, then I flip into the aisle, Scorpion my carry-on (“Get over here!”), and rush past the flight attendants to get stuck behind everybody else still meandering up the jetway.

But this will be different, everybody will pay a sort of “rent” to use this office, but it’ll be worth it because it’s so big and has bedrooms and bathrooms, and you can put your office wherever you want, and even own it if you want to

I really like the idea of playing dumb with this.
“Why would I get a gun?”
“Protection from whom?”
“Why wouldn’t I trust her to make smart decisions regarding potential romantic partners?”

Personally I wouldn’t wait to get to that point. Had I made it clear early on that “used to be okay” jokes or comments were not, in fact, okay, I probably would have saved myself a lot of heartache.

Confronting loved ones over unacceptable behavior is a necessary skill that takes practice to develop, and I would have been better served if I had done so from the start with my in-laws.

Perhaps I wouldn’t repeat OP verbatim, but there are a lot of ways to get the basic point across.

Just finished the musical episode in Season 2, which was quite silly, but it’s all so fun that it’s hard to criticize. This is a show that knows what it is and revels in it.

It was very in the open, but Trump said he didn’t know anything about it, so the sycophants believed him.

Are you kidding? Always dodge twice!

I hate how right you are. I guess what I’m really looking for is a way to recreate that magic, but an accessible shot of nostalgia every now and then would do just fine. I guess I’ll look into clone hero and see.

Yeah, why the fuck don’t we have a modern interpretation or a spiritual successor? (Please, no remastering.) I assume the answer is money, but I’m still disappointed.

Never had multi-user stalls or pissers, but I seem to recall a big round communal trough for high bathroom throughput. Everybody just kind of pissing in each other’s general direction.

Just give Mahershala Ali a sword and start filming, let the story develop organically.

It would be real fucking weird for any news outlet to post a picture of a dead body like that.

Thanks for fact checking

“Skip to” isn’t quite fair, because the million things that can be done need to be done by tens of millions of people, and not everybody has those opportunities. So for some, “Guess I’ll get a gun while I still can,” is just the next thing they can do after voting and protesting and calling and writing and donating and speaking, because we’ve been taught for a long time that that’s how these things go and the best defense is being armed.

And even beyond that, saying “You Americans” as though we’re all a like-minded group is as silly as assuming that everyone is from the US.

I’ve been playing through Cyberpunk 2077 again and they’re all bad choices.

The final level of Last of Us had me hesitating, too, because the “right” choice felt wrong. Not that you really get to decide, but it was a cool gameplay moment for me.

Yeah, man, I get it. Language is complex. I’m not advocating for the reinvention of English, it was just a conversational observation about a silly quirk.

Do you think it’s a matter of choosing a complexity to care about?

I think in most cases where this administration seems to have a good idea it’s important to remember that it’s likely designed to keep them in power.

A national database that the trump admin controls will 100% be exploited for their own gain, just like every other aspect of government is being exploited for their gain now.
