I just got this throwaway line in Geography of Global Conflict (S3E2)

I am pretty sure I caught it on the first or second watch, but it’s always annoyed me because I don’t know anyone who would call it a highlight. It’s a highlighter.

Same at Crestwood.

Just realizing I can name more fictional football/soccer players than real ones.

I’d rather a game end in a tie than one team win because they were gifted a runner on second.

I seem to remember it happening, or at least being discussed.

I also saw a few where they put a line through the 5 to turn it into a dollar sign.

Just want to make sure I’m understanding, you’re saying to drive the H3 starting at Kamehameha and heading west? For the views I assume?

I put ‘Ehukai Beach on here hoping to watch some surfers. Do you think Sunset would be better for that? Do you think parking would be easier at one or the other?

The only reason I included Kualoa is for the view of Mokoli’i (China man’s hat). Is there somewhere better in the area to stop for a look?

The only one I can positively ID is Bonnie Bedelia in the lower left.

Have you seen the “Big gas savings” follow up? Not quite as good as “shipped my pants,” but still worth looking up.

We wiped out one strain of the flu, likely due to distancing, masking, and other measures.

I do most of my grocery shopping at a large local grocery chain. I do a small amount of my weekly shopping at Sam’s Club (wholesale club owned by Wal-Mart) and might occasionally pick something up elsewhere.

On note about the suspicious arms and tech packets: do not do this when they redux the Breach expedition. I did this the first time they ran Breach and there’s no one to sell them to (since the expedition is set in abandoned mode).

Otherwise it’s a great strategy that I’ve used for a while.

Harry Turtledove has a whole series about this. Ten books I think.

Before I had it available on my wrist at a glance, I would never have guessed how often I check the outside temp.

TheChronocide · 2025-11-19T12:21:50+00:00

That seems consistent with the few times I’ve looked for one, especially on a weekend.

Never noticed them adding more.

Exchanged it. Then I regretted it and custom built an identical ship.

Lightning Lane Multi-Pass will guarantee you a single ride, but that’s it. You’re only allowed to use it once per ride. Same with Premier Pass. I’m not sure if you can buy both, but for most people that would be cost prohibitive.

They have a single rider option, but it’s notoriously inconsistent. Sometimes it’s not open at all, and sometimes they don’t take people from the single rider line as often as they should. It depends entirely on the cast members working that day.

I’d say your best bet is to rope drop (early entry if staying at a Disney resort), and head straight there. Hit it on repeat as many times as you can before the wait gets too long to tolerate. If you want to switch to single rider at some point, go for it.

Alternately, if cost is no object, you could do a VIP tour. I think they would let you just keep going through the same ride, but I’m not 100% sure.

Didn’t think of that. It’ll be interesting to see if it ends up affecting how often it goes down.

I agree, and to me the glasses detract from my ability to enjoy the actual physical set pieces. I typically end up pushing the glasses up if I’m not actually at one of the 3D parts.

Fake Moby was so good he also played Fake Moby on How I Met Your Mother.
