@fOx1257067 I read it as her being possessed or brain-washed and he 'fought' her to break the spell, which he did at the end. No clue if that's how it's supposed to be though!

"But the other people need to understand about forgiveness," said Jeff Metcalf. "Forgiveness was not for him. Forgiveness was for me. So I don't carry the rage, the hate, and that around; it will eat me up like cancer."

Mr Selby at Carmel High School in the early '80s. Math teacher I took for 3 years. Every third class or so he would tell a joke that literally took up the first 20 minutes of class and always had a 'shaggy dog' punchline (ie, it was more stupid than funny because you wasted a lot of time).

On other days he'd do short things like 'Whistle song', where he'd whistle something and everyone had to guess it. I think the whole class got the muppet show theme song in 3 seconds!

Always opened the class with a smile.

It's a trick not drawn to scale. In the drawing, the bottom line is parallel to the middle line, meaning both the lower left and and middle angles displayed need to be the same, but the lower is labelled as 60d while the upper one is labelled as 45d.

Assuming the picture is NOT drawn to scale and the angles listed are correct (meaning the horizontal lines are NOT parallel), the misslng angle would be 135d (180d-45d).

@ThrillaRilla369 Depends on the 10 year old...

I realize this is just anecdotal but Holy shit, if your job is like this then find a better one.

My sick days and vacation days are all PTO and come out of the same bucket. If I'm a good boy and don't have any UNSCHEDULED PTO for 3 straight months they give me a bonus day of PTO in addition to my accrual as a reward for not leaving them hanging.

I don't give a reason for the PTO, whether I'm sick or just don't feel like it or the phase of the moon, it's PERSONAL Time Off... If it gets abused then you'll hear from HR, but it's really not a problem (that I'm aware of).

We've hired 50 people in the last 18 months, I know jobs are tight but they are available.

I think the one that pissed me off the most was one of those Scott Adam's adventure games with the two word parsers, I can't remember the name of it. There was this castle with a moat but no bridge. You had to go somewhere else to find a crayon and return and 'draw bridge'...

14 year old me raged for a month.

The Carroll case rested on a sequence of legal maneuvers with no precedent in American civil litigation. Democratic legislators passed a retroactive temporary law eliminating the statute of limitations for decades-old accusations that could not be dated, located, or defended with alibis. The day the temporary law took effect, Carroll filed her pre-prepared lawsuit, the first in the state to do so.

A Democratic mega-donor secretly funded the plaintiff’s legal costs through a nonprofit. The arrangement stayed hidden until one of Trump’s lawyers discovered it. A Clinton-appointed judge then sealed all records so the jury never learned the billionaire backer had publicly committed to Trump’s political destruction. Every participant in the legislative, funding, and judicial steps operated inside the same political network, and each decision produced the same cumulative result.

The jury explicitly checked “no” on the verdict form’s specific rape question. The judge ruled rape proven anyway, claiming the jury had used a common rather than statutory definition… an impossibility, since their rejection under the common definition precludes rape by any standard. Trump’s team was barred from arguing innocence before a second jury, which awarded $83.3 million ($65 million punitive) on the rape finding the first jury had rejected.

A defendant was sued for defamation over denying an accusation, prevented from asserting that denial as a defense, tried before a judge who concealed the plaintiff’s political funding, and hit with a nine-figure verdict built on facts the jury itself refused to find.

No comparable sequence exists in recorded U.S. civil litigation history.

@exQUIZitely I wanted to like it so bad but it didn't seem like there was anything to DO in that game. Fly around and shoot worms, I don't recall ever finding an area that wasn't just a big sandy desert though. Maybe I just didn't get it, but the actual flight felt amazing.

@ResisttheMS Holy crap, you have to turn Wadsworth up to 60% to watch this video...

@SandyofCthulhu I would totally watch a movie of that bug's adventure...

@NewWorldHominin Did the 'fake company' pay you for the work you provided? If so then all good. If you're really upset you can try suing them but I doubt it would go too far. I hate frivolous lawsuits but I also hate poser 'pranksters' so I'm not sure how I'd vote!

@ThoNg676733 She's sounds like a wailing banshee when you compare that to Benatar's version...

[Sam @aspomwell]

The last hurdle is the voices. Man, they just can't get the emotion and emphasis correct. The single exclamation of 'Fuck' in this one sounded alright because it seemed to emphasize it but try stringing a couple together and it's monotone... This one benefitted from having very little dialogue.

@GPAIndiana tiny coke spoons!

@drinkonsaturday rofl, I went to ebay to see if there are any for sale (curious about how much they go for, I'd love one but no room). There aren't, but I did find one selling a 'pre-owned original' advertisement from some magazine for $8! https://t.co/orvCbM3rBP

It looks just like the OBD reader I bought off amazon. You pair it with your phone to read diagnostic codes and reset your check engine light. Not saying that's what that is, any device you'd want to plug in there would take that form factor. If this is really your content and you're not just content farming then follow up with a part number or something, should be easy enough to google...

@HeavyMetalInk Let's see if I can do it from memory: "Fritz? Get up for God's sake, get up! They shot Fritz. You lousy stinking yellow fairies! You horrible atrocity filled vermin! You antagonistic war mongering pigs!" Yeah, we quoted that movie a lot...
