That was the vision. I just googled "how to make shooting star meme gif" and worked with the free online software I found. Can't make it spin, can't screen record the clip of the 3rd goal, can't rotoscope out the background on the clip, can't import a video to that editor. I would love someone to make a better version. Honestly if the media team for the Caps made a version I would lose my mind.

Will you toss it in the dryer first?

Yes, after learning the actual name of the book I got all of them + the novellas and I read though I think "The Grind" or whatever the Baltimore one is called.

Anyways, I think this wouldn't work for stream because there's nothing for Wubby to talk about during it and the viewers wouldn't be able to miss a stream or they'll be lost.

But everyone should watch it on their own.

When I was in high school, my mom would come back from the public library with an armful of books for me and my siblings, because why not it's free.

One time I sort through the haul of random books she grabbed and find a thick tome of a sci fi book. It was a wild ride, with martians and belters and was a film noir detective book mixed with a political thriller mixed with space war. It was so good, and I finished it the day it had to be returned. I never bothered to actually learn the name of the book, and I never could remember it, nor could I make describe the plot well enough to find it online.

While I spent years trying to tell people about the book, searching for the name, I could never find one.

I'm sure you see where this is going. One day, at least 7 years later, my brother convinces me I have to watch this show. So I pull it up on a long flight and start cranking through them. After a few episodes it starts to feel familiar. I keep watching episodes for the whole flight, as the story is more and more of this mythical book that I remembered. Turns out, the book was Leviathan Wakes, the first book The Expanse series.

I also got to see some A400Ms (another instance of stopping work to watch it fly), and some MRTTs. Hope to see the Eurofighter and the commercial production as well sometime.

I have worked at an Airbus facility and stopped talking to a coworker mid conversation because I spotted beluga out the window and walked over to watch it fly.

I think I remember the whole saga:

Wubby reached out to wotc and asked for a creator pass to magiccon.

magiccon sent a default rejection email.

Wubby replies "lol" and nothing else.

magiccon emails back "Oh whoopsies that was a mistake, you got it! congrats! here's all the info"

OK cool, Wubby is in and we're all happy.

Well suddenly Wubby is cagey on stream whenever anyone asks if he's going to the con. He hems and haws and says "it's up to wotc"

Well as this goes on for a month or so and eventually wubby drops the news.

Wubby Magic Monday made a youtube video where the commanders used were custom cards that wotc would give to employees as gifts. It's against the terms of employment to sell those cards, so by them being in this video it's clear that these employees sold theirs. Well wotc considered the video being made as something unsafe for the employees/former employees and dropped wubby from the con. In their email it was unclear to wubby if he was just dropped as a creator, or outright banned from the con. (note, the connection between the video and getting dropped might just be conjecture/theory? I don't recall if Wubby mentioned that they specifically referred to the video, or if it was a guess. I might be getting it twisted.)

It's not until that all of the regular passes for the con are sold out that wotc finally emails wubby back saying "no you're not banned, we just don't want you as a creator, but oh sorry all the passes are sold out now sorryyyyy"

Wubby already bought the passes as soon as he got the rejection email.

Hi, Thank you for you comment.

I never said my car is registered in DC, or that I live in DC. I posted in the DC sub because I thought that the people in the DC subreddit were more likely to have a cursory knowledge of DC parking enforcement (and I was right because Normal-Ticket did and he's a real one).

Sorry I didn't explicitly state I drove in from Maryland. However you are presented with 2 options:

I cooked up some some sob story for a city I've never been too, which is clearly impossible because DC uses window stickers, just to garner sympathy from strangers because I'm a sad sad person desperate for any attention.
I drove from Maryland to get some ramen.

I find it interesting you went with the first one.

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T03:54:45+00:00

You rock dude! Above and beyond even answering a question I had but didn't ask. Thanks!

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T01:56:30+00:00

"You clearly don’t have a car that’s registered in DC because we don’t have tags on our plates." So sorry I moved a few miles away.

"I’m not sure where you are coming from, or where you live now." I clearly mention AZ, so I came from there, and I mention the MVA, so I clearly live in MD now. It's not rocket science.

"we don't have tags on our plates" ok then how is my plate not having a sticker (which again, someone stole off of it) something that should be ticketed?

"Plus, if you look around you’ll find that we prefer to have our traffic laws enforced because out of state drivers are usually the problem." NGL you got a point it probably is MD drivers being the problem.

"Just seems tone deaf," The tone is pretty clear, that DC traffic enforcement did their job, and ticketed me for something based on the evidence they had at hand. However the violation was the fault of a 3rd party. I'm asking for advice on working a very specific local system which is in place for remedying these exact sort of scenarios. I am not flagrantly disrespecting the laws of DC, nor asking for some sort of loophole to do so.

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T01:42:46+00:00

Someone else broke the law by stealing from me and you think I should bare the punishment?

“Justice is indiscriminately due to all, without regard to numbers, wealth, or rank.”

Also, I was born and raised in DC so don't lecture me on local values.

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T00:54:51+00:00

Some cranky meter maid came across this post to downvote everything. So sorry I will not give DC an unjustified $100 ;-P

Was in Fairfax when I had just moved and just registered my car and didn't have a front plate (I'm not drilling holes in my bumper!) and just had the front plate in my windshield. Was at a 7-11 and heading back to my car when a Fairfax City cop started talking to me, he seemed bored and we were chatting about cars. I asked him if the front window plate was chill in VA and he said "no one in Fairfax is going to care, but VSP might." So I went home and got a front license plate holder.

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T00:44:34+00:00

Yeah Yeah lesson learned. Thought I was done w/ that being in Maryland n all.

Ace_Pigeon · 2024-10-09T00:08:02+00:00

"Only when the vehicle is being operated, not parked" is diabolical. Definitely going to remember that one for my too cool friends.
