I would say 100%. Thanks for playing the probability of past events game.

Oh, this could be my next custom spirit for Spirit Island.
- Comment on Can a U.S. president premptively pardon themself? 3 days ago:
We don’t know. Nobody has ever tried it before. Common law would suggest no, but really it’s anyone’s guess with the current make up of the supreme court.
- Comment on MANDATORY! 5 days ago:
A completely fair point.
- Comment on MANDATORY! 5 days ago:
So many of these bigotry laws will end up hurting cis girls too (and in larger numbers). People are really stupid.

Time to level another character I guess.

…no.
- Comment on Do you know any real-life person with the first name “Lucifer”? 1 week ago:
I had a coworker named Zoltan Furi. Hungarians get all the cool-sounding names.
- Comment on He saved the world. 2 weeks ago:
It’s gotta be absolute mind fuck for John when he eventually meets his best friend in the future and realizes he has to send his buddy back in time to fuck his mom so he can be conceived.

The bottom is winning, he’s already got the tops shorts undone.

Kubrick would have melted some actors.

I know a lot of furries interested in that candy bar.
- Comment on Hard Out There For A Woman 5 weeks ago:
I had a friend like you once, if he was into a woman there was guaranteed something dreadfully wrong with her. Like this was an actual conversation:
Friend (excited): I just started seeing her, she’s amazing! The best thing that’s ever happened to me! Me: Dude, the last to girlfriends you said that about ended up in jail. Friend: No it’s different this time, she’s cool! She’s a gamer, we like the same music, she’s super chill. Me: Ok dude, I’m happy for you.
Two weeks later Me: Dude, you ok? You look pretty down. Friend: My girlfriend likes to get into throw down drunken brawls with strangers every weekend.
But this friend was also a weirdness magnet in general.
- Comment on On a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam 1 month ago:
But our rock isn’t floating, it’s falling constantly towards the sun with only its lateral velocity preventing it from hitting the star. It’s not floating like it’s suspended, if the planet ever stopped it would rapidly plunge to its doom.
- Comment on how to build a loopback device 1 month ago:
If you did it at my office, nothing because typically only one of those jacks is cross connected (the other is a spare wire) also our switches use spanning tree. Most network loops I’ve seen have been caused by logical configuration errors.
- Comment on Thanks, doc 1 month ago:
Sertraline was actual torture for me. I stopped sleeping entirely, had constant chills, pounding headache, mood instability where I would just start sobbing for no reason. Started on week 3 and by the end of the week I was begging my doctor to take me off it.
Sister had similar results. I ended up on different meds.
- Comment on Why Should I... 1 month ago:
Absolutely. For me it’s all about harm reduction so as long as I am trying to improve, I can still fall short sometimes without having a crisis of conscience.
- Comment on Why Should I... 1 month ago:
I am aware and I do make every effort to reduce and remove dairy (and eggs) from my diet, but I recognize that I fall short of what I would consider vegan. Like if I’m at a party and am offered cake I’m probably going to eat it even though there’s probably egg in it, but I’m not going to order an egg-based dish, same with dairy if we’re having pizza or something. As I get older I’m increasingly lactose intolerant anyway, so I have additional incentive to avoid it.
- Comment on Why Should I... 1 month ago:
Rennet makes this a much more complicated decision for vegetarians. Like, if I know that the cheese was made with bacteria-derived enzymes, then that’s cool, but it’s really hard to know and trusting random cheese is just like still eating beef sometimes, so even though I’m vegetarian and I end up being so picky about cheese that I hardly eat it anyway.

I never made this connection but now I imagine this as Holden being self-aware / self-critical.

IIRC, Japan_Nobunga is a slop account.

Lots of people take their unruly kids through Walmart, I don’t understand the problem. Was it the jug?
- Comment on What is your experience like for Jury Duty in the US? 3 months ago:
Occupation does not automatically disqualify you unless your work connects you to the case in question, but some occupations are not going to make it through voir dire. Keep in mind that you might be sitting on a jury in a civil case. Rather famously, Barack Obama was summoned (after his presidency) and he went, but was dismissed by random draw.
- Comment on Can anyone confirm? 3 months ago:
The people who live in Houston seem to think it’s as good as Chicago, I’d disagree with them but at least there are good restaurants. Also from a population standpoint, Houston is basically the same size as Chicago so it invites comparison in one regard.
- Comment on The forever war for your FACE 3 months ago:
I do like the idea of using a less expensive solution with less plastic. Maybe I’ll look into it again.
- Comment on The forever war for your FACE 3 months ago:
I manage to slice my face occasionally with cartridge razors, I fear what I’d do to myself with a safety razor.
- Comment on Before Wolverine got his adamantium body, could he grow back his bone claws do to his healing factor? Or is it just for skin muscile and organs? 3 months ago:
Evil Deadpool was mostly the same as regular Deadpool though. He just called his Doppelganger “Evil Deadpool”. Though I think Evil Deadpool did end up doing something that might hurt a child at one point and since that is the one thing Wade won’t do it might be the single distinguishing characteristic between Deadpool and Evil Deadpool.

Seriously Pierre is only marginally better than the faceless mega corp trying to put him out of business.
- Comment on This guy managed the movie theater I worked at in high school. 4 months ago:
I think ties have fallen out of fashion. At least in business dress. Button up shirt, nice slacks and a sport coat, all tailored. You have to specify black tie if you want people in fancy dress.
- Comment on Geese, why are you like this? 4 months ago:
The resident Canada geese in my neighborhood are pretty chill. The only time I got lip was when I went out the back door and there was a goose, a gander and a gosling right there within a few feet. I received an angry honk as they shooed their gosling away from the stupid ape.
