Ah, interesting, that's... What? Wait, I'm doing five things at once. I just, ah, kind of zoned out for a minute... Hang on.

And I just restart whatever animation loop I'm in.

Yeah, go ahead and tell your boss to actually adjust your hours because a table stiffed and watch your hours magically get cut. The math is easy, take your $2.13 and don't complain or you'll get the back tables by the kitchen and then only get scheduled for 20 hours next week.

That's where you actively go "Woah, better spread those handshakes around. If the boss don't sign off on the plans, my word means nothing!" You give them an out. If they're sexist, they may engage with an "heh heh, I know how it is, women!" but if they're cautious they will hopefully just go to being professionally cordial with your partner.

Once survival has gone on for some time (depends on the person), you're going to start making a few 'comfort' decisions. Granted, I wouldn't go raid a CVS for razors but if I found a pair of scissors I might start doing a trim.

Also, hate the feeling of greasy hair, so I'm quick to cut it off or rub dirt all over it if I can't take care of it.

RG DS doesn't have enough horsepower for 3DS. Some select titles work but stock Android eats up any overhead it might've had.

The Ayn Thor can do more 3DS (and Wii U).

I mean, Xenia and Xemu are basically the gold standard for that...

One of those late night skin cream commercials used to be a Rocky Horror-esque scene in my house. Much to our dismay, the last time it came on, we saw the telltale AI face reacting to a bottle on a table. A skin cream, the whole point 'showing' the miraculous results and they generate fake people playing with the bottle.

Can't even watch it ironically anymore.

I suspect these are also people who don’t like to use turn signals. They don’t like the car fighting their ill-advised lane change.

The "Lane keep" in my car only seems to see road lines whenever construction is going on and I'm diverted to an odd pattern... Then proceeds to scream at me that I'm leaving my lane as I avoid the giant orange cones to the front of the car.

My "Adaptive Cruise" is set to the farthest back follow distance it can be but brakes very late and always slams on the brakes when a car is fully in a left or right designated turn lane.

I have learned to adapt to the car's 'personality' and keep my thumb on the cruise button so I can click it off when needed or apply throttle before the car can hit the brakes.

There's another thing, when you press the throttle, you override the "automatic" braking. That means homie saw the big sign and floored it on through.

I'm also a Lynch fan. The only time I really watch his movies is when I have a bad fever. I was sweating through my couch, dying to sip water and binging Twin Peaks. It's really the only way to watch, I have to say.

Maybe psychedelics? That might be good too.

The only time I lay down in VR is Superhot VR, and that's never relaxing.

Honestly, it's a job that comes with an implicit "you are worth less than our objectives and your life will be risked if we deem it." No OSHA, no safety regulations (well, militaries have their own regulations...) Get in the barely tested hardware and determine if it'll protect you from a bomb. Also, if you disagree, we'll put you in jail or jack up your life.

That said, countries need armies. Where would Ukraine be if they decided to disarm for security agreements that were then quickly violated? And what if that foe was actually competent?

But, like, post-Vietnam, Americans should've realized they weren't the good guys. It's a shame new people keep getting born and don't realize the whole history of their country...

Which is hilarious because you violated AP style by not first saying Associated Press.

5km/h is on the low end of the "average" walking speed but waiting at intersections and lights will murder that speed. You could easily be on the upper end of six and then have to wait 5+ minutes at an intersection, bringing you back below a 5.

I have the complete collections of everything up to N64, and more than enough of the greatest games of the PS2-era to last me multiple lifetimes. If something happens, I could easily live the rest of my life trying to finally get good at Solomon's Key.

Everyone wants "adequate" body armor but no one wants to wear the IBA's nut flap and thigh guards...

I like the idea - I don't want to send you an email back, here's a thumbs up to show I've received it.

I hate the execution because I get an email telling me you reacted to my email.

If, and only if, no one ever references the rest of the Bond canon jokingly. Everyone just plays it perfectly straight. No nods at the camera, nothing. Just like we all looked past the Bond actor changing in the past, everyone is just like "Yeah. That's Bond."

Hell, have her leave flowers at Tracy's grave.

Grandpa only boiled twice

If the difference between you being a Nazi and you being not a Nazi is medication, you're a sedated Nazi.

Saying the words "Break dancing" and "she creates her own moves [as why she failed]", to me, proves there's zero need for that to be an Olympic sport.

I've always kind of detested 'judged' sports, not the sports themselves but the idea of judging creative expression on a scale. Like, "We, the panel, have decreed that your moves were not funky fresh. Pop and lock your way to the locker room please."
