I read this in R2D2’s voice!

I’m sure you’re the first to think of this! You’ll be rich!

Nope, but I hope they leave you alone so you can go back to enjoying Lemmy. Cheers, mate!

I’d rather listen to an orgy of deaf zoo animals.

That’s what you said when I asked you if you’d enjoy going to listen to The Beatles live in their heyday. I’m beginning to think that’s just what you’re into.

How long would it take to make it have above that threshold?

I hear X bucks can be used in place of the three seashells. Does anyone know if that’s true?

You want me to uncrush?

Playing devil’s advocate, in a crazy accident you may not be able to get to/reach your phone, or even be responsive. If you use the personal assistant function on your phone, it’s no different than using OnStar, in terms of privacy.

All of this said, last I heard OnStar was pretty expensive for the average household income. I don’t have it, and I don’t worry too much about it.

That was not my recollection of how it was supposed to work or how it worked in practice, but I found an archive of the original guidebook, and it says exactly what you said. Interesting. I got passed up by Donkey Kong and Bowser on straightaways all the time, but maybe that’s more of a mirror mode challenge thing than a size of the karts things.

My recollection was big characters had a higher top speed, but slow acceleration. Small characters were the opposite. Medium characters didn’t excel or suck at either.

Is there a casual relationship or are you saying you didn’t like either?

Don’t ask the question if you don’t want the answer, I guess. I never asked about any of my dates’ worst dates. We just went out and had fun. It wouldn’t have scared me away for them to tell me they were sexually assaulted, but I feel like they wouldn’t want me to stir up those feelings while they’re trying to find someone to love.

This is my problem. I bought some iron-on patches for the back of my Mario hat so I won’t be mistaken. It’s a different color red, but most people won’t pick up on that.

Pee, pinch, set down cup, finish in toilet. I don’t know what the setup for drug tests is, but worked for my medical samples. This isn’t stopping it internally, though. I can do it internally, but I don’t like to.

I have 1000 games, but I still replay a bunch of them over and over, just at a less rapid pace.

When I was a kid, some piece of computer hardware came with some game demos. There was one called Taskmaker. It was not good graphically, but I really enjoyed it. It allowed access to three areas, I think. I played so much that I was able to beef up my character significantly. I was eventually given the full game. I played it so much. I tried bribing all of the NPCs to see what they’d say/do. There was a text box where you could type spells into. The normal progression of the game didn’t really give you many of them, but bestowing stuff to NPCs was one way to learn some.

Anyway, I found an abandonware version of it a while back and installed it on an old Mac virtual desktop. It still holds much of the same magic for me. I don’t have time to bribe every NPCs now, but I remember a lot, and google helps me with the rest.

I’ve been using it for months. I don’t expect it’ll be free forever, but I’m using it while it’s around. Not using it is like not watching a movie because it won’t be streaming on Netflix forever. Enjoy it while it’s here. Of course, if you didn’t want to support Google, that’s a different story altogether and I would support that.

The cardboard I don’t mind, it’s the packing pillows that I mind (better than the old fashion packing peanuts or bubble wrap, from a recycling perspective). I bring them to Publix for recycling because my local waste company doesn’t recycle most plastics. I suspect Publix isn’t either, but it’s better to try than to just throw them away.

How do you explain cereal being $8 a box, when it was $5 pre-COVID or the million other products that now cost more? There are recordings of board meetings that were leaked of board members admitting that they inflated prices or unnecessarily kept prices inflated because they knew people would pay it.

Except that landlords are coming together to set prices so that they can all set them high. I don’t remember what the group is called, but someone was discussing it a while back. Doesn’t have to be a monopoly if they’re conspiring, which is what is happening with so many consumer goods and services.
