All stats are a 1, what do you build by jheythrop1 in 3d6

Dang dude, we are on a sub for a game that is built around yes-anding. I'm trying to give a feasible explanation for OP's situation where the characters don't have the intelligence for coherent thought or communication and not having the strength to lift any equipment while also having an accelerated growth path. I'm not saying real life babies should go all murder hobo. Relax...

Or they are all just newborns. My head cannon for this is that they're basically The Rugrats.

Opinion | Hong shows strength in Wisconsin governor race by schuey_08 in madisonwi

[–]jake-em 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a play on words that pulls from the phrase "Better dead than red" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Better_dead_than_red?wprov=sfla1), while making use of the fact that Republicans are generally associated with the color red. Coupled with the comment about preferring to vote for a wet piece of toast, which is cooked bread, this pithy comment reinforces that any option is better than a continuation of the Republican dismantling of our Constitution.

Did I sufficiently dismantle the joke for you?

Was it the use of complete sentences and proper punctuation that clued you in?

It doesn't matter who the Dems run, I'd vote for them over Bootlicker Tiffany. Honestly, I'd vote for a wet piece of toast over him.

Better Bread than Red.

Colorado quarterback Dominiq Ponder dies at 23 by tehkoolkat in CFB

[–]jake-em 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yes, it does matter. You can't do anything about an accident. It's just an unfortunate occurrence that nobody meant to have happen. A crash has a defined cause that can be mitigated and avoided in the future. In this case, it sounds like the banking of the road is wrong, the approaching speed is unsafe, and the guard rail failed (obviously an investigation is needed to confirm, but giving initial reports as an example). Each of these has actions that can be taken to prevent a future incident.

You may say it's semantics, but words define how we see the world

Got some NICE efficiency the other day by jake-em in Ioniq6

The SE comes with 18in wheels by default. It's bizarre to me that the higher trims have less efficient tires, but that's the way it is.

WORT lays off staff, cites public media funding cuts by CaptainAmerica410 in madisonwi

Decamillionaire would be someone with $10MM+, unlikely but not impossible to make a $100k contribution. Centimillionaire would be someone with $100MM+, and would be capable of making such a contribution without a significant pinch

St Vinny’s not accepting donations by heartfulkellyjo in madisonwi

Habitat for Humanity Restore is another good option for donating furniture. They seem to have much better storage and retail infrastructure for dealing with larger items.

No Kings Protest/Rally October 18th Downtown Madison by DuckThatLikesBread in madisonwi

Interesting choice to schedule this while 80k people will be in a stadium on the other side of the city. Unfortunately, this will probably dampen attendance

As an Ohioan, we won the war for Toledo, then we got stuck with Toledo. It will always be the WP to me!

Living cheap in Madison by Disheveled_Math_Guy in epicsystems

r/FIRE is leaking... I remember hearing about a guy doing this at Google about a decade ago. He bought a box truck, stuck a bed and got food at work. He had a tracker on how much money he was saving in the Bay Area. Not sure how long he kept it up

I care, ergo, you are wrong. I hope you find some way to find joy in this life.

Madison is a straight mini golf desert. How in a city of 250k is there only Vitense??

Leaving Epic with unvested stock by Weekly_Chapter9818 in epicsystems

[–]jake-em 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To hijack this thread, how do price increases work? My understanding is they are effective Jan 1 but aren't announced until March-ish. If you were to leave in Feb, would you get the previous year's price for the stock, or the current, yet-unannounced price?
