Big (Slow) Pete is earning his moniker today.


4 people marked this as a favorite.

Hi, everyone. Making a few posts on my day off. I won't be posting very much next week, unless it's from a library. My Hotspot time expires on Monday, and I don't get paid (HAH!) until Friday. *sigh* The things that expire between pays.

Ohhh, Big (Slow) Pete, Big (Slow) Pete,
My heart skips a beat for Big (Slow) Pete,
I wanna take a tub of hummus and anoint his feet,
Give him all the gleanings from my field of wheat,
Big (Slow) Pete, Big (Slow) Pete,
I prefer him to Wee (Quick) Ron;
I would run 1,000 metres for Enormous (Tardy) Peter,
So all the other guys can begone!

Speaking of cultural differences... You get your drivers licence, and then cant drive at night?

Yeah, now, supposed to keep kids from killing themselves trying to recreate their favorite songs of the fifties.


Collapsed the playtest forums.

It's for the best.

US has degrees of license. States can vary, but under 18 (legally a minor) usually has a restricted license. You can drive to/from work/school/church and aren't supposed to have passengers outside the family, and you're not supposed to be out past a certain time (exceptions being school/work activities). More permissions if you have a licensed driver in the front seat, which you have to do to log your required driving practice hours.

Looking it up, my state lets you get restricted at 15-16, full license at 17. But it's still sideways until you're 21 because drinking age.

Don't recognize those songs, Gran. And yes I'm up at 5 am in the morning.

Interesting.

Here you turn 18, get lessons. Pass a writen test and a practical exam, and then you are good to drive your car. No restrictions.

We have driver's ed classes offered as a summer program in most school districts (at least in my state). The US is a lot more spread out than most of Europe, so the dependence on cars I think is a large factor in the licensure system.

I don't know about other states, and I believe the law in Florida changed where you can't get it at 16 anymore...I believe I recall my niece b&!%!ing about that...but when I was a kid, you could get a license at 16, but it was only "good" until 11pm, then 1am at 17, then at 18, when you're "fully a legal adult" (but not enough to drink alcohol) you get as late as you want. That was when I was a teen, just under 20 years ago.

Well, the Rainbow's on a short time skip to get their kingdom started. Things were going fairly well, and then the year end betrayed them:

Feud
Public Scandal
Assassination Attempt

Now to figure out how to interpret this...


Almost done with DB Super.

I don't think I ever was so glad to see an antagonist lose as I was with

DB Super Spoilers:
that stupid ass Sailor Moon wannabee Universe 2 lot. If I saw one more "power of love" reference I was going to throw my computer at the wall. I got tired of that phrase so much, I'm pretty sure I won't be able to watch Back to the Future for at least a year, since that song is in it.

Ugh. Friends....talking about playing PowerBall...don't listen when I explain how math works.

If a basic lottery ticket worth a couple million (enough for most people to retire) won't motivate you, which has a roughly 1 in 14 million chance of winning, why on earth would you play when it's a 1 in 292 million chance of winning? The lottery is practically a tax on the ignorant.

The gambling industry is built by rich people to trick the desperate into giving their money away. The house always wins. As payouts increase in a linear fashion, risk increases exponentially. Why would casinos still exist if the players had a real chance? Who in their right mind would operate a business like that?

And yet when I tell my friends this, trying to help them, trying to keep them from essentially flushing their money down a toilet, they look at me like I'm an a&@@#*!. For trying to help.

I. Do. Not. Understand. People.

People in my office hurt my head. Someone actually said "my husband and I have great chances" and it took everything I had to just keep walking. I bought a ticket (as in, one, singular) for the hell of it, figuring I have spent worse on mobile games. There was an office pool most of my team chipped in on, so they were saying they can't leave anyone behind. To which I got them good by telling them "you won't because you're not gonna win".


Is the jackpot way up again? Gotta remind myself to buy a ticket afer someone wins.

I figure that playing once in a while gives me a non-zero chance of winning; but yeah, I don't play for fun so a few extra million just means I'm playing against a few million more people.
