I'm wondering what situation is this wikiHow dealing with, where having a gun ready in front of an officer is advised?

"Make friends with the officer by showing off your gun so you can bond over your mutual interest in firearms"

Maybe they're listing what not-to-do stuff when you have a dead body in your trunk

Can confirm. As an ex-corpse for hire I saw someone do this did not end well for them. Fortunately I got in touch with this great necromancer and here we are today

I saw this mom rocking these knockoff LCD backlit Gameboys for her kids with cheaper plastic and buttons with a hundred games to play and still thought to myself "nah, my childhood was still better."

"Game Gear/Game Boy" for us old fucks. But yeah, shit never changes. My son now does the same with his Switch.

Original gameboy was not backlit. I think you could buy external lights that were like a tiny reading lamp you could attach to the top.

Tiny lamps, magnifiers with lights attached, the little "Lite Worm" you could plug on top that barely did anything besides put a bright spot on your screen...

There was a lot of bad ideas before the concept of a backlit Gameboy left Japan. Because of course they had an exclusive one with a backlight before the GBA was even a thing, let alone the SP.

Yap mine would do 2 checks roughly. One about an hour after officially turning the lights out and then once before they went to bed (near midnight).

I learned their schedule after repeatedly getting caught reading and devised various strategies to counter this.

I arose a highly successful boy.

Man, I remember upgrading from a GB Color to a GBA SP, finally being able to play in the dark without this weird magnifying glass / light attachment.

Good old times.
