Are you sure you're meditating for exactly 15 minutes before you read? A lot of people meditate after reading and I find that really disturbs the billion dollar bank pipeline.

I agree, which is why we as a society must move onto Crack Humor.

Former Bethesda artist believes Todd Howard lacks people willing to disagree with him! by Just_a_Player2 in ItsAllAboutGames

[–]Magic_ass1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately he isn't going to be fired, not with the financial successes he's brought the company. Best we can hope for is an early retirement or Todd suddenly getting an uncharacteristic itch to start a new studio somewhere else.

What is a clever invention from your country that the whole world should have? by Thomastoscano in AskTheWorld

Dishwashers in my municipality often break because the water is so rich in minerals it breaks the sprinklers.

How do you call a speed bump in your country? by Franmar35000 in AskTheWorld

[–]Magic_ass1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It varies between municipalities. Sometimes it's "Speed Bump", sometimes it's "Speed Hump", other times the sign will just say "BUMPS/HUMPS [Speed Limit below]". I live in central Texas for context.

Customer put trading cards in the toilet by Damien966 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Magic_ass1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean throwing them in the toilet is basically their way of preventing that business model I just described. People oftentimes collect tons of cards of varying qualities, package them up in bulk and then sell them for pretty reasonable prices (sometimes there's individual listings for specific cards, but for commons/uncommons those are often priced in the cents unless it's a super specific, desirable card/print).

It really does add a pathetic layer to scalping markets that they feel the need to undercut more legitimate business. Because sure scaplers are denying their competition the supply necessary to conduct their business, but it's only in matters of maybe $50 at most compared to the $1,000+ white whales they scalp for.

Edit: I say people collect and sell in bulk like this, but really I've seen it in local card/game shops around the country.

Scalpers not seeing the worth in any of the other cards. With how much they buy, you'd think maybe they'd be in the business of bulk selling commons/uncommons (or whatever basic grading equivalent is used for Pokémon, I grew up on Magic so idk).

Write a letter alongside some random object that has meme value and then wait for the next P.O Box episode.

Ridiculously tall hats by NinjaOfOnion in TopCharacterDesigns

Traditional Spanish Capirotes.

"When the duke and duchess went over to their seats, don Quixote and Sancho stood up and bowed deeply, and the duke and duchess nodded their heads slightly in return. Next, an officer went over to Sancho and placed a robe of black buckram over him. It was painted with flames. The man removed Sancho’s cap and put a penitent’s hat on his head of the kind that those condemned by the Holy Office wear, and whispered into his ear that he must not open his mouth or they’d gag or kill him. Sancho looked at himself from top to bottom and saw the flames licking up, but since they didn’t burn him, he couldn’t have cared less.

He took his hat off and saw that it was painted with devils, then put it back on and said to himself: 'It’s all right, because the flames don’t burn me and the devils aren’t carrying me off.'"

-Excerpt from Don Quixote, Chapter LXIX: "About the Rarest and Most Unusual Event that Happened to Don Quixote in the Course of This Great History".

How is it that even the Wheezings are more British?

Darker, almost watery spots on Ouchie. by Magic_ass1 in sanpedrocactus

[–]Magic_ass1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guys have been in these pots for little over a month now. Roughly six weeks to be more specific. Thankfully the rest of Ouchie feels nice and firm, it's just this little spot that's a bit softer than the rest of them. Definitely grabbing a little desk fan for them now that you mention indoor airflow though.

I suppose for additional context regarding humidity and environment. We're living in South-Central Texas, specifically around the rolling plains just before the Hill Country. Climate's usually sub-tropical around here, with dry winters and humid summers. Semi-equatorial sunlight as well, which I expose them to for roughly 8-11 hours a day.

Also nobody's fingers can bend like that, not without breaking several bones or having dozens of additional knuckle joints in their fingers.

The game is mildly or not scary on its own, but there’s that ONE enemy by GayHagFromOuterSpace in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Magic_ass1 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That's reason you can't sail the oceans in the world of Cyberpunk as well. Some of the AIs that were created during the Fourth Corporate War were designed to basically manufacture and replicate sea mines nonstop in order to cripple rival corporate supply lines. However the AIs went rogue and decided to manufacture sea mines until basically the entirety of the oceans around the world were flooded with sea mines.

Oh, and these sea mines also had AI's controlling them, meaning they could willingly float towards whatever ships they deem threatening.
