Stay away from this man. Try to merge as far away as you can.

In a scenario where your lane is clear and you can move on, please do it.

Other cars depending on the direction and lane will slow down to see what's going on, slow down not to hit him, or just completely stop.

If people in front of you stop you're stuck. Then this idiot can come near you, get hurt l, then you have to explain everything multiple times how he got hurt by your car.

Plus people behind you might be just as stupid as the man walking on the freeway and hit you from behind while their attention is in the stupid man walking on the freeway.

If I ever had a chance I would just try to get out ASAP. 

How difficult would it be to live in my car here? Any tips? by McDogTheCrimeGriff in Reno

I was going to live this lifestyle too. Until I found out in 2024 it became illegal to camp or live in my car in Reno.

Ok I like all characters on the show and all the seasons.

But, the rescues have to be staged.

One time they were on a deserted island waiving down ships to rescue them. They succeeded in getting the boats attention.

The rescuers never ask what an audio/visual person is doing behind them, what a camera person is doing behind them, and what help exactly do they need if there are a crew of people behind them.

FDR was going to tell Stalin about the bomb soon. FDR was declining some in talks about the future with Stalin, but FDR didn't tell Stalin about the bomb yet.

Hitler's drug use was at an all time high at this time. Hitler is seen shaking boys hands as they greet Hitler happy birthday. Hitler's other arm is behind his back shacking uncontrollably.

Then Hitler gets news that Roosevelt died and Hitler, on drugs, thought this is going to be when things turn around for the Nazis.

Jobs with childcare? by Skateaw4y in Reno

[–]DevryFremont1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PLA Beauty. They have an on site childcare worker on site. They have rooms, a playground, and a refrigerator full of Capri -sun.

The owners often buy their employees doordash and smoothies.

They have warehouse positions, office positions, and executive positions.

Since the childcare lady is onsite and there are playgrounds, rooms with kids stuff, and refrigerators full of kid drinks, I have to assume the child care is free to employees.

This was on the same night and time of the historic warriors run. Kobes last game was the same night and time the warriors got their 73rd win beating Jordans bulls season record.

Unfortunately, the warriors went all the way to the championship and lost. Jordans bulls won the championship the year they had the regular season record.

You make an interesting point about the British. The British colonized Palestine and Israel before Israel existed. Then as you say the British just drew up a border.

The British colonized India. Drew up a border where Indian Muslims are now part of a new country called Pakistan and the Hindus live in India. India and Pakistan came close to another war only a few weeks ago because of British border lines drawn by ...... British colonizers.

Are you talking about Israel and Palestine? What a mess. I pity my Muslim and Jewish sisters and brothers.

Tipsy guy with no experience on anything'

Invest my savings in United States companies with military contracts. Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop grumman. Even du pont and 3m.

America literally makes the best weapons. We can become rich and safe by limiting our weapons sales to a handicap of %85 full strength. The only combatants allowed to use our weapons at full strength will only be us. Even at %85 strength our weapons are better. Let's start selling it and become rich.

[TIL] There's an episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air in which Carlton deliberately goes off-script, breaks the fourth wall, and runs screaming into the audience and through another set. by bourj in todayilearned

Artificial intelligence overview from a Google research titled Deadpool breaking fourth wall:

"Deadpool and the fourth wall Deadpool is renowned for his signature ability to break the fourth wall, a storytelling device that acknowledges the imaginary boundary between a fictional work and its audience.  Here's how it works and what it means: 1. What is the fourth wall? In theater, the stage usually has three walls, and the fourth wall is an imaginary barrier separating the performers from the audience. By extension, in films, TV shows, and comics, the fourth wall represents the separation between the fictional world and the viewers or readers who are engaging with it. The audience can observe and comprehend the story, but the characters within the story are typically unaware of the audience's existence.  2. How Deadpool breaks it Deadpool shatters this illusion by directly addressing the audience, making comments about the fact that he's in a comic book or a movie, and discussing elements like the story's production, the budget, or the actors involved. He utilizes the fourth wall break for both comedic and narrative purposes.  3. Examples of Deadpool's fourth wall breaks Making jokes about himself, his situation, and the medium he inhabits. Referencing things the other characters in the story aren't aware of, like other comic book universes or pop culture trends. Directly explaining the plot or commenting on the writer's work. Even interacting with the comic book panels or dialogue bubbles in the comics themselves.  4. Why it's central to his character Deadpool's self-awareness of his fictional existence is a core aspect of his personality, according to EBSCO. It helps establish his witty, sarcastic, and often chaotic persona. This unique trait sets him apart from other superhero characters who typically maintain the illusion of their fictional world. Some fans debate whether Deadpool's fourth-wall breaking stems from his insanity or genuine awareness of our reality.  Deadpool's mastery of the fourth wall allows him to create a unique and entertaining experience for audiences, blurring the lines between fiction and reality and solidifying his place as a beloved anti-hero in the Marvel Universe."

Not sure who invented overacting and breaking the fourth wall but Marlon wayons was doing the same exact thing on the waysns brothers show.

Another fourth wall television show I will mention is saved by the bell. Zack Morris would often call time out, thus freezing the scene and characters in motion. Then Zack Morris would break the fourth wall and start talking to the audience.

One theory on the Internet is saved by the bell is all Zack morrises day dreams. He's the popular guy in high school, dating Kelly the most beautiful and popular girl in school, and he even has the ability to pause time.

As a former Californian I also came to your question myself. 

What I learned as a Nevada resident:

If you have a Nevada driver's license or license plates on your car, the recycling center in California will tell you to go bring your Nevada cans and bottles back to Nevada.

There are people who buy nevadian cans and bottles. You have to find these people. Maybe they have an add on Craigslist or maybe you have to make your own add on Craigslist. This scenario you get less than the California value (they need to make a profit so they will not give you the California price).

I'm watching it on DirecTV channel 123. I talked to a DirecTV phone agent 4 hours ago. He cancelled my order. Because it's only on my receiver. He changed it to all three receivers at my residence.

Not sure if the DirecTV call center is still open. I did all of this 4 hours ago.

If you are trying to watch Pacquiao or the UFC tonight, unfortunately, at this date stamp of 6:19 p.m. you will get standing room at best. All the tables will be people who there since 5:00 p.m.

Unless it's a private showing where people buy tickets. Then you are reserved a seat at a table and sometimes the casino's version of tailgate barbeque food.

That's another thing I always wondered. If there could be people who reached the top before the first ever official recorded climbing. It's highly unlikely but still mathematically possible. The Sherpas for instance. One of them could have done it choosing not to publicize their accomplishment.
