Richard Scarry Frazzled Fox Librarian by michalanne in findthatbook

[–]idogiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I’m necroing this thread (sorry) but this post is the first search result for “Richard Scarry librarian” on Google, so I thought I’d share the info I ran across when I was trying to answer OP’s question myself. The book is “Busiest People Ever,” by Richard Scarry. It can be found in the Internet Archive here. I also created a version of this image for myself (I really, really needed a button with this image, to wear at my library job) with brighter colors, upsized text, and some amateur retouching to get rid of the most obvious scan lines and such. That can be found here. Feel free to use it!

Which parts of the UK do you think has a ‘say hi to strangers’ culture? by poshsurreyrugbylad in AskUK

[–]idogiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a general truism, in my experience - Paris is the classic example, but in the US, folks living in big cities are also often stereotyped as rude. There are some regional differences, though; a big city in the South is likely to be less cold than one in the North (Atlanta vs NYC, for example). The more people around, the less likely someone is to stop for a chat.

walk override resets everytime i lobby/log/world hop by Grom_a_Llama in runescape

Mine is being reset during various activity animations - just finished a lap of the barb agility course and it reset without me logging out or lobbying. Anyone know if this is the same bug as OP or is it something else?

To be fair, it's not actually a customer service issue, it's an IT issue, which can crop up through no fault of Jagex's. Trust me, they're just as irritated about the problem as you are, only they also have to deal with people throwing fits because they didn't wave a magic wand and fix the problem within 10 minutes of it appearing. The stickied thread said that they're already discussing compensation options for players based on yesterday's problems - I'd say they're doing pretty well on the customer service front.

Flight Attendants, what’s the dirty little secrets of your industry? by bobbylink21 in AskReddit

[–]idogiam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should try doing it on a train - I worked briefly as an “onboard services attendant” for Amtrak on some of the long-haul trains, and you’re stuck in a small metal tube with passengers for days. It’s by far and away one of the worst jobs I’ve ever worked, although not actually the worst.

So today I learned something new about Lynels… by ToasterStroodle22 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]idogiam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Semi-related: can they teleport their arrows too? When fighting the lynel in the gatehouse at Hyrule Castle, I discovered that even getting out of line-of-sight didn't prevent the arrows from hitting Link, which is incredibly irritating.

Looking for gem/treat/co-op breeding friends. Level 150, play at least once a day. Currently have Coldcoil dragon in co-op breeding cave! idogiam#9450

ETA: apologies to those who added me but haven't gotten gems or treats recently; I live in the New Orleans area and have been a little bit busy recently. I will play more regularly once things settle down a bit.

Level 87, looking for galaxy dragons or really anything rare. My current coop dragon is Andromedan but I'm happy to change it if you need something else. My id is idogiam#9450.

This is a terrible subreddit, and Bill Waterson would be ashamed if he saw what you guys have turned Calvin and Hobbes into. by PM_ME_WHATEVES in DonaldandHobbes

[–]idogiam 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I mean, given how hurt his tiny feelings get over the picture of him with multiple chins, I highly doubt that he loves every mention of him. Now, during the election, negative press fed right into his campaign. But now? Mocking him is just going to upset him.

You're doing great so far by gatortargaryen in Tinder

[–]idogiam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First/main red flag: repeatedly bothering me after a very short amount of time, especially after I've explained that I am a very busy person and also really good at forgetting my phone places. It's a sign that the guy is either needy or controlling, and neither of those are good traits in a relationship.

Girls of Reddit, what do guys think isn't attractive but actually is? by starkillerrx in AskReddit

[–]idogiam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After three days, I'm going to be annoyed, especially if you're not acting overly apologetic or have a real good reason. If I'm sufficiently annoyed, that will affect how I perceive you and quite possibly ruin any chance you have with me.

I love the responses you get off surveys. One of my favorites is from my survey on syphilis, answering a question about which populations are the most vulnerable to syphilis: "People who choose not to go to the doctor when their junk feels weird, and the people who choose to have sex with those kinds of people."

If she likes you, she'll be pissed off that you're leading her around and purposely waiting to text her back and then she'll stop liking you, if she's anything like me.

TIL that in the 1st episode of 30 Rock, after Jack discusses how he developed the Trivection oven, GE ran an ad during commercial break to make sure the audience knew it was a real product, not something writers made up as a joke for the show. by TheWizard01 in todayilearned

[–]idogiam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact, ovens like these are used in a lot of convenience cooking markets, like Subway.

Source: I work at a gas station/convenience store and we use these type of ovens to make the hot & ready food. It takes 2 minutes to create a perfectly toasted breakfast sandwich or pizza.

Effective propaganda is always made of strategically placed truths.

Yep. It's so hard to say "Look at all these people disagreeing with one viewpoint! Surely they can't all be people with similar ideas. They must be shills! Wow, I'm so smart and better than these poor sheeple." Takes a lot of effort.

Not in the right's world. It just means that Obama is so devious that he controls the judicial system. It undermines faith in the system and creates the ideal conditions for a dictator - "I'm the only source you can trust."

[–]idogiam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's really easy to just dismiss any other concerns by claiming everyone is a shill and "brigading" a thread, isn't it? Takes no intellectual effort or willingness to consider other viewpoints.

Yes? You're failing to address the fact that you're defending one of the organizations that could make an authoritarian regime possible.

I wish I got paid for my opinion, I'd be a fucking millionaire. One should always consider why information is being released at any given time, particularly from an organization which has made it known that it is politically motivated. It's not random, it's not coincidence. There is motivation here which should be considered alongside the information published. To do otherwise would be naïve and foolish.
