Yeah, I didn’t really like the genre for a long time either, until I was in a place where I kinda needed it.

Most people hate school. Even the “smart kids”, what they really like is learning or knowledge, not school.
I see it as an example of cozy slice-of-life. Kind of like Azumanga Daioh but in a deli with a bear and a plant.
Homer listening to “Home” while watching “Home Alone” with the homies and a homing pigeon.
That’s what I was gonna say. It doesn’t even have to be a religious thing. To a lot of people church/mosque/temple is a cultural thing.
It’s good for us, fam! Dunno whether it’s good for you or not, ya have to ask ur irl friends about that…
“How did you go bankrupt?” Bill asked.
“Two ways,” Mike said. “Gradually and then suddenly.”
History’s like that too. People took their best guesses, but nobody knew for sure.
Oh, it’s a Japanese cartoon. They use metric hours instead of Imperial hours. So you’ll just have to keep waiting.
Either that, or driving cars to the junkyard to be crushed.
I don’t use eggs like that, but my housemate does. Looks like they take em from the carton one row at a time, the carton currently looks like:
1 1 1 1 1 1
0 0 0 0 0 0
The engineers design the gravel to turn into a powerful sedative/hypnotic but only if you run a truck into it at high speed.
That’s only if you haven’t blessed the rains down in Africa.
Since there’s no “Lord StarTron” in Star Trek, I’m guessing this is just a 0 mask. Why put it there?
OP is clearly trolling, but this is the most balanced take on the article.
Reflect on yourself first
Agreed. The article mentioned a “Biblical perspective”, and I vaguely remember something about Jesus saying if your eye offends you pluck it out. He didn’t actually make his disciples pluck out their eyes tho, I think he was saying if there’s a problem it’s with the viewer, not the observed.
Maybe it’s bc I’ve been doing a lot of proofreading recently, but the first thing I noticed was reference to “the Battle of Dover Straight” instead of Strait.
The cops raid the place with a similar device and find absolutely nothing.
When I was in high school one lunchtime I was sitting there reading sci fi by myself like a total nerd and some other kids were sitting nearby and they started smoking cigarettes, which was against the rules. Anyway a teacher saw them just as the lunch period ended and the teacher said: “all right You, You, You, and You stay behind!” And the teacher pointed at me, because I was nearby. I was like: wow, I haven’t been in trouble before! I was writing a lot of short fiction and poetry at the time so I thought it’d be a good experience. So I sat there and listened for a while as the teacher berated the kids. But eventually I realized I’d gotten all I was gonna get from this teacher’s unimaginative lecture, so I stood up and was like: I gotta go to class. The teacher glared at me and was gonna go off, but the other kids were cool, they were like nah he wasn’t a part of this. The teacher looked at me, looked at my sci fi book, looked at me again, then realized yeah these kids would never have anything to do with this dork. So they let me run off to class.
“word shitting”. Lots and lots of words that say fuck all.
This is a great way to describe LLM-based AIs. I’ma use it.
Check out youth hostels / Hostelling International. Basically they’re inexpensive dorm-like hotels mostly targetted at younger backpackers. The ones in LA and Boston are in great locations. About 12% of Americans are of German descent (cite) so ask around, you or a family friend probably have a distant relative who immigrated here at some point.
So: get a cheap plane ticket. Fly into a city with a youth hostel. Wander around for a while. Catch a Greyhound Bus to visit your distant relative in Iowa. Hang out with them for a while. Catch another Greyhound to another city with a youth hostel. Fly back. You will meet a lot of people in the hostels. You’ll meet a lot of people on the Greyhound. Look up stuff ahead of time, not just tourist stuff but concerts or clubs or sports events wherever you go to. Sure it costs money but it’s a hell of a lot more fun than a resort or a cruise or whatever. Wait, isn’t “wanderjahr” a German word? Anyway after you spend a month or two here you’ll know whether you still like us or not.
Yeah… reminds me of a very valuable lesson I learned during my college years.
