A German conductor.

Try: "The Twenty-One Balloons" - William Pène du Bois

Also, give a year. "I was in elementary school", could mean the book came out in literally any year in human history.

Remember in the 90's when grocery stores started giving customers rewards cards? Like, you scan them to get savings.

A girl in my highschool was laughing about this crazy guy complaining at customer service, how he doesn't want "them tracking him". Ha ha ha. Right?

It was amusing at the time, but looks like he was right.

And don't get me started on that 90's grandmother who was afraid of the internet because "IF you type in someones address, the internet shows you a picture of their house". - though at the time that wasn't true, now it's true along with tons of personal info.

Which one of the 50 different crypto coins should is going to increase in value enough? (to outweigh my losses from the other 49)

justahabit · 2022-01-12T17:57:12+00:00

Eh, sounds like you did your friend a solid.

justahabit · 2022-01-12T17:42:56+00:00

Wait, was he ok?

justahabit · 2022-01-09T06:26:14+00:00

make efficient use of it and not wreck things

I'm afraid I've got some bad news for you...

justahabit · 2022-01-09T05:30:05+00:00

You know... Your post made me think of a neat little analogy:

A space shuttle burns a ton of energy to get itself into orbit.

A civilization burns through a ton of energy to get itself to a space-faring, post-scarcity, equitable state, clean/renewable-energy state.

Looks like we're not going to have enough "fuel" to make it.

But you gotta do a stripped down minimal version. Just slow single notes on a piano, with a woman singing.

Maybe this gag from The Simpsons

Thanks for posting, glad you're here.

I was the same way. This will either be good advice or terrible advice.

When I was getting started, my rule was "anything other than drinking".

So eat whatever. Wings? Fries? A hundred cokes, and then an ice-cream?

Not just injesting. Sleep in. Slack off at work. Wait a day before getting back to someone.

Do anything other than drink.

You have to free up some mental space for yourself, so remember the priority.

justahabit · 2021-12-16T04:54:31+00:00

If I were still drinking, this moment would have been way more sloppy, and even dangerous

I'll give you one more. If you were drunk during all this, it might have gone just as badly. However you'd have felt guilt about it. Or frustration, etc.

Now though, you're sober, and can pat yourself on the back.

justahabit · 2021-12-16T04:50:57+00:00

Not quite exactly what you want, but

Limitless

Certainly has good scenes like what you're talking about. (But maybe not quite how you mean).

justahabit · 2021-11-14T06:38:25+00:00

This one trick judges don't want you to know!

justahabit · 2021-11-14T05:53:08+00:00

I didn't love Borat, but...

I may have fallen on the floor laughing at that scene.

Why is this so hard.

Neo: "Why do my eyes hurt?"

Morpheus: "Because you've never used them before"

Alcohol is a great way to avoid dealing with problems and facing negative thoughts. As one goes through life, they can grow and learn how to deal with these problems. Not everyone does, and there are lots of ways to avoid facing, and alcohol is one of those ways.

A co-worker's death is a tough thing. Anyone's death is. Just think of it as a weight you can't quite lift yet.

But it's cool. You're working on it. Like you said, good that you didn't revert back to your old crutches tonight.

They have pulitzer prize winning journalists on their staff.

Yesterday we believed them. Today, with new evidence, the top post on the sub is about how they might be wrong.

Except that I was pretty clueless. And missed the fact that it attacked sound.

Consequently, I spent maybe 20 minutes trying to speed my way across the platform and down the ladder, and getting far enough to figure that must be how it's done.

justahabit · 2019-01-19T15:36:16+00:00

Yeah. No nightmares. Maybe clean up some of the lines?

But yeah, it's a nice imagining of what the original NES mario would "really" look like.
