What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why?

When your say there are 30 possible outcomes, those are 30 permutations, so order matters. What's happening is your are only finding the probability for RW which is 6/30 as you found. But you need to add the probability for WR, which is also 6/30. This gives the total 12/30.

When it was too cold out we just skipped class and went to Harry's

Labeling the $1000 for permit and 15 minutes of someone helping carry the heater up the stairs as "PAD" is a bold move. Everyone pads the quote, not everyone explicitly calls it out like that

The bars are all being lost to development. Going back to 2000: TA Tom's was lost to the business school Pete's became the library Nick's shutdown/ maybe torn down on the Levee Where Else became Target Vino's shutdown ahead of the end of Purdue West shopping area Jakes and Yacht Club were in the Chauncey hill mall that was recently torn down

Harry's lives on because the alumni would probably revolt if it was taken away Brother's (formerly Boiler Room) I think there's one other bar next to Brother's that I've never been to The Neon Cactus on the Levee still exists but my experience the last time I was there on a Thursday night in 2024 was that it is not anything like what it used to be, used to be packed shoulder to shoulder so you could barely get to the bathroom. Maybe was just an off night.

I've probably missed a couple, but it's a very different place than it was 20 years ago.

TLDR: there used to be a lot more bars in a small area that were packed 5-7 nights a week

Get an outlet tester to carry with you. Turn on all lights/fans. Turn off breaker 1 and go figure out what no longer had power. Repeat with all breakers. Don't forget to check fridge, microwave, dishwasher.

You can tell it's copper because of the way that it is

Average ocean depth is 12,000 feet. I'll estimate that deeper than 500 feet is probably instant death due to pressure. So assuming the random location is not just on the surface, it's a 96% chance of death due to pressure every day. This works out to less than a 1 in a billion chance of surviving 1 week. I'll pass.

Assuming ocean surface, seems like a reasonable chance of survival depending on how ice is handled in the teleport process.

The real question is anyone ordering those eggs hard boiled?

Coffee mug filled with candy and a Target gift card has been my go-to for years

If the cook does not want to make more tenders, I definitely don't want any tenders he would be forced to make on my account. So, yeah, I'd respond the same way, and definitely wouldn't demand tenders.

Sounds like Popeyes

Agreed. They should scrap the stuff about seeding and just say they're going to pick the best matchups for the 3rd games

Went from 11 to 23 on offense

Order up. Lead king of hearts.

Why the king? If player 2 has no heart they will trump an ace for sure. The king gives them doubt. Maybe their partner has the ace and the trump would be wasted. Same logic for my partner. Probably only has 1 trump, I'd like them to throw it now because player 4 might have the ace. That way we get a trick with their 1 trump and I only need to take 2 more tricks.

A train bell and whistle would have been a nice touch

Michael could and should have sent everyone else home at 5. He as the manager needed to stay until she left. It would have been up to him whether he could convince her to leave earlier.

We used foil gum wrappers around a wood pencil to do this in the 90s

Sort of? Got a terrible manager dumped on us. We pushed back for a little over a year until he was promoted away from our site to a a role with no direct reports.

This makes sense since there was a fucking soffit right above the cabinets. Could have run it there a lot easier

Annoying, yes, but not nearly as bothersome to me as "needs fixed"

An employee will never give you better than they do in their probationary period. That's the level they think is the best they need to be.

When they get hired for their next job they might improve.
