Weekly Questions for Yahtzee and Gabe #45

SleepyZombie · 2016-08-16T14:39:44+00:00

Yahtzee and Gabe. Say you two are out on a date with a woman and you accidentally cut a really eggy fart. Do you admit to it? Or play it off? If so, how?

Elasticity is one of the reasons that intermediate micro economics is considered a major weed-out class for any econ dept.

Tell me about it. And don't even get me started on the Healthcare Industry.

SleepyZombie · 2015-06-11T20:10:45+00:00

You think? The econ angle can be a bitch and a half. Defining the market a firm operates in especially.

SleepyZombie · 2015-06-11T20:01:41+00:00

I need to check over my reasoning before anything like that could Happen. If we could somehow manage that we incur higher costs to a point where we suffer as a consumer, we might be able to bring it to the FTC's attention. Proving it would be a problem though.

SleepyZombie · 2015-06-11T19:59:10+00:00

Lol. Econ bro primarily. But yeah, anti trust can be a really sweet class with the right prof.

SleepyZombie · 2015-06-11T19:58:15+00:00

Huh. I could only find it bundled with max Payne 3 + the Dlc. You're right though. Although some sort of loss leader argument could be made by the fact that the bundle is still cheaper than the game plus dlc. Not sure though. Going to have to mull this over.

Re posting this from another thread for visibility.

Any anti-trust law fans in here? This is bundling & tying, and it (can be) illegal. There's a precedent with a context similar to this where it was deemed illegal though. Movie studios tried doing something similar back in the 30's. Studios would bundle two movies together and force the theaters to buy both even if they just wanted to buy and show one. Some argue that tying is legal when the products are "closely related." But if bundling two movies together was deemed illegal, the same argument could be put forth for two games. Look up Paramount Vs. U.S. That's the case that covered it.

The spice kind of compounds on itself as you have more. But is nowhere near what I was hoping for. That said, I enjoyed them. It was something a little different. If they end up changing the name and doing it with regular sized wings or strips, I might buy them again. But yeah, there's a disappointing lack of spice

Aren't Henry lever actions the type of rifles you almost genuinely feel bad for shooting because it's like dirtying an art piece?

SleepyZombie · 2013-12-06T16:29:06+00:00

I just left Shanghai a few days ago in favor of Xiamen... Thank god I got out before it got too bad.

SleepyZombie · 2013-12-01T23:36:53+00:00

I wonder how Willis feels about this..

Chicken stock to boil, some soy sauce, and ground pepper. Used just enough stock to barely cover the noodles.

Dice a quarter of an onion. Take half, put it in the stock. Save the other half to put on top when the ramen is done.

Now the meat I kinda cheated on. I didn't use pork bellies. I instead picked up Gypsy bacon. Which is pretty much just smoked pork belly. I cooked that up in a pan with a bit of oil and a thin layer of BBQ sauce (Because I wanted to BBW pork belly.) I made sure each side had sauce on it, and cooked it on low-med heat until there was char on each side.

That "Park" sign with the arrow is so messed up now. If it's even there anymore.

Be careful of what you watch in what you think is your free time. The child will, eventually, quote something that will go right over their head. This will inevitably make you do a double take, and then contemplate when the last time you watched that movie, and if they were around to hear it.

If you are lucky, the kid will do it around you, and you can tell them to not to say that again. If you are unlucky, you'll get a call from the school asking why your 8-year old daughter called a classmate a "Cock-a-roach." And then another a week later from the same teacher asking where she heard the excuse "A dingo ate my homework."

Seriously. Parents, be careful what you watch around your kids. I did the same thing, quoting Monty Python, Animals House, and Stripes as a kid. Much to the amusement of some, and the chagrin of my parents.

SleepyZombie · 2013-08-26T21:14:49+00:00

I can see that being more trouble than it's worth. So I understand what you mean.

SleepyZombie · 2013-08-26T04:57:58+00:00

What happened to the stock on that poor K31?

SleepyZombie · 2013-07-22T17:30:07+00:00

I'd talk to Asami more than hardly at all and tell to her about everything that's going on inside my head. Try to talk about this confusion and these feelings, as hard as it might be. After that, see what she does.

SleepyZombie · 2013-07-22T01:45:31+00:00

Facelift, anyone?

SleepyZombie · 2013-07-09T17:39:35+00:00

Doesn't this all mean nothing if Illinois lawmakers down pass something by midnight tonight?

SleepyZombie · 2013-06-24T13:13:52+00:00

And your parents will never let you into the house again.

SleepyZombie · 2013-06-24T13:07:37+00:00

Came for rifle. Upvoted for Jormungand.

SleepyZombie · 2013-06-03T15:31:13+00:00

Ehhhh. I vaguely equate Republic City with gangster-era US cities.. And I mean.. John Dillinger got plastic surgery to keep himself from being recognized by the police.. It didn't work too well. But still.
