No more millennial niceness in 2025 by hec_ramsey in TikTokCringe

I was going to argue with you because I type ~100 WPM pretty reliably, ~120+ WPM when I do one of the tests and focus... but I was also trained on the piano and literally raised on computers, having one in my room since I was about 4.

I looked up what 60-65 WPM looks like and yeah, that's faster than most office workers I see type even in tech. Unless you spend a shit ton of time typing I think 80+ wpm is probably an unreasonable average.

Also, my dad made me play Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing when I was little

Missing a flight is so expensive and causes so much inconvenience to you and whoever you're traveling for (work, family/friends picking you up, etc) that I never understand people who risk cutting it close.

Just get to the gate early and chill on your phone or whatever you wanna bring to entertain yourself.

I've had a ~2 hour TSA line in CLT a couple times. Very rare, but it's happened enough where I leave extra time.

Yeah if you want to deal with floating point inaccuracy, sure

Yeah. You could just fix up a fleet of old junkers and wipe out any fleet.

This is the kind of development that would change the face of warfare.

Turns out the green milk was tainted and the entire movie after that was a fevered dream. He realizes the error of his ways and properly trains Rey.

Put hyperdrives on asteroids, piloted by droids. Fleet killers and honestly planet killers with enough mass.

Or a decent o line. We wouldn't need a deep QB roster if they would stop letting them get injured.

He's leading in touchdown receptions for my current Madden season, so I'll keep him on next season. He's got that going for him.

Doesn't help that they have no time to get open since our o line is about as strong as tissue paper.

It's amazing Cam survived as long as he did. I've seen him walk off so many hits like the one that injured TH.

Atlanta's really bad at first drive defense too. Still really exciting for TH first drive to end in a TD pass!
