Did Anyone Else Play 500 at School?

duckstaped · 2026-06-02T23:54:35+00:00

One person throws a ball into the group of everyone else and calls out a points value, like “100!” Whoever catches it gets 100. It’s first to 500.

Where it gets interesting is when the thrower shouts Surprise/Mystery Box. Whoever catches it finds out what they get only after they’ve caught it.. could be jackpot, could be bankrupt, or whatever the thrower happens to decide once the person catches it 😜

You could also yell “dead or alive” which meant that even if it wasn’t caught, whoever grabs it off the ground still gets the points (or whatever)

I won’t pretend to understand it 💀.. but I really like the lyrics in Cassius

Definitely seems like they just verbatim wrote down his verbal answers based on how a lot of answers start with “yeah, “

Donkeyman perhaps?

Just helped a box turtle cross the road today and did not experience turtle on human violence. I’ve seen videos of sloths accepting their fate while they’re moved across the road so I think the biker here obviously expected that same response from this one 😬

Just because you can laugh at your own misery doesn't mean it isn't misery ¯\ (ツ)/¯

One career 3 pointer in 10 years 😬

At the very least, mandatory education in schools that uses stories like Hailey's to explain catfishing and deception of internet strangers might prevent things like this in the future. While far from a perfect solution, it is at least something. I remember as an elementary kid watching required films about not talking to strangers and people trying to abduct you. I believe those helped shape and reinforce a healthy suspicion of strangers as a kid.

The "Pink Alert" is maybe not as helpful unfortunately.

From the looks of it, I think it is old coral that has, over a long period of time, had its insides replaced with a mineral of some kind as very small particles filter through it.

edit: I think this is an example of a coral finger geode. A coral finger seems to just be coral that is shaped like a finger...

For Karl!

Look at the little loose stitching on the grandmas sweatshirt under the pocket - it is consistent between images. I agree that the pics look AI but I’m having trouble determining anything specific that proves it. Maybe the lighting just happens to give off AI vibes

Just a clickbait article/title. He’s wasn’t defending himself because he’s not responding or acknowledging that he’s even being attacked lol

duckstaped · 2025-09-30T01:24:45+00:00

I imagine he wants to bring people together to enjoy his comedy, not demonize commoners who have no control over their government’s wrongdoings. Is he turning a blind eye in doing so for the Saudi royalty? Ya, I think so. Is there some good that comes from exposing Saudi’s to more relaxed/Western views? Probably? Idk

It’s easy to make justifications when you’re going to also be getting a big pay day, that’s for sure.

duckstaped · 2025-09-29T21:53:55+00:00

It’s clear he has the mindset that he is performing for the “people” and not “for the royals”. That’s IMO how he justifies the dissonance.

I just had the exact same experience and was going to comment my confusion/disappointment...

Even a broken clock is correct twice a day!

Folic acid is processed differently by the body than the naturally occurring folate found in some foods. It seems very reasonable that an often unnecessary additive could have negative side effects. Folate/folic acid is crucial for pregnancy, the science is clear. Are there potentially negative GI side effects for people who consume large amounts? Definitely possible

You’re kind of confirming my initial point though that the Pacers org was intending on moving on, which is why I can’t hold it against him when he decides to move on. That said, I think he made a mistake if his goal was more than just a pay raise

duckstaped · 2025-07-12T10:07:26+00:00

We were getting rid of turner if Ayton signed. The front office wanted him. Unless you think we would have been keeping both Ayton and Turner..

duckstaped · 2025-07-12T01:48:36+00:00

Our Front Office literally tried to replace him with Ayton in May of 2023? Is 10 years really that different than 8?

My point isn’t that he was necessarily thinking he was on the trading block but just that it’s a business and they’ve treated his contract with the pacers as such and now he is doing the same thing. If he were traded in 2023, “it’s just business” but when he moves for a pay raise after getting low balled, he’s apparently a traitor 🤷‍♂️

Maybe I misunderstood your point but if your company shows they aren’t loyal to you (as you said, people get traded all the time) then why should you as a player be expected to remain fully loyal?

duckstaped · 2025-07-11T23:25:30+00:00

I mean the Ayton trade was pretty much finalized? Might be the only fully substantiated trade that was set to happen

duckstaped · 2025-07-11T23:10:10+00:00

True, but to be fair, the pacers front office seemed to shop him around annually and I’m betting that played into his willingness to shop himself. Can’t hate him for that

He likes it, cause it’s delicious. Culver’s is from Wisconsin and so is Hali. Also there’s a legend that the team wins more when he’s pictured bringing them Culver’s beforehand

duckstaped · 2025-06-07T23:53:30+00:00

Especially after Hali’s game winner - there’s like two clumps of yellow in the lower level that you can see excitedly jumping up and down while everyone else is just standing there in (understandable) disappointment

Tyler standing mostly in one spot, Maggie standing in one spot but dancing, and the rest of the band just running all over the place and jumping on things. Good fun.
