It’s real. To be fake it would take professional wrestling levels of acting ability. And do you really think either of these two has that?

If I can hit it by softly lobbing a rock at it, it’s here. Farther than that but I can still see it, it’s there. Out of sight it’s over there somewhere.

I’m not sure this is really from 1955. The Adidas the dude on the left has on is showing a style of outsole that, while could be found in the early and mid '50s, wasn’t mass-produced until 1959 or even 1960. He’d have to have been an Adidas rep or known someone really high up in the company. And frankly I doubt that is the case here. He would have to have either been living in Germany or close to someone that was. And if the later is the case, international shipping would have been rather difficult. And while I’m not decrying his stylistic choices of dress, I am skeptical that a high ranking Adidas professional would have been accepted if this were the look they came to work with.

Yoooo. This was my local news guy. MD represent!

Too Much Coffee Owl.

The most interesting part of this for me is they were right. Both sides do have good points worth listening to.

Even if it was pretend to start with they’re both so sensitive and need to be right, it’ll turn into a real fight soon enough. But I agree, neither is clever enough to pretend this. For that you need professional wrestling level acting skills.

Elmo later tweeted that rocks are hard, water is wet, and that ice cream is cold.

But after that she died. Not a total wash, but it was the best thing she ever did.

TRaSh 80 squad in the house. My uncle was a nerd and gave it to me thereby fostering my inner nerd. 2 floppy drives of goodness.

Yeah, I thought it was funny. People are weird.

Lies! Dirty lies in my post thread! The game is never over! Do you hear me? NEVER! OVER!

I’ll upvote this for the effort, but I’m not clicking anything left in this thread. Im not sure what this is a link to, but I’m willing to give it up.

Yeah, but I’m taking everyone with me.

Yes but I’ve given you the gift of a fresh start. You’re welcome.

You know how a lot of computers use windows? And a lot are macs? And there’s a difference between the way you have menus and apps and stuff? Linux is a third way to use your computer. But there’s a lot of versions of it. It doesn’t matter what kind of computer you put it on either. New, old, windows, Mac, mini computers, old laptops. Linux is simply another way to use your computer. It’s really cool if you’re into that kind of thing.

Right now, Hyperion by Dan Simmons. I’m reading it because a couple of friends, a cousin and I do a little bookclub podcast. We do speculative fiction. We take turns picking a book then nerd out about them. This was Will’s pick. Last pick was mine, it was the first three books in the Hitch Hikers Guide trilogy.

After this, I’m pretty sure I’m going to re-read The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton. Its been dozens of years since the last time I read that.

Yeah. My kids and I play this together. It’s a lot of fun. It’s not as thinky as some other games but for a quick hour or two, it’s a blast.

There was a funny little story about the first 2/3 's of this. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. It was a riot.

(It was not a riot, but very much worth reading or listening to.)
