The Thurman is easy to shorten, at least nowadays. Just add a thick drawl to the ‘Thur’ and say, “but everybody calls me Thor,” and roll your eyes a bit. They’ll laugh, tease you about it a bit because you got named after a comic book character, and then you won’t be known as Thurman.

The untold story: 1.) the grade was curved due to everyone’s low numbers

2.) no one wanted to get near the rocks to identify them because there was one weird mofo walking on all fours around the displays, randomly snarling and licking each one

Homeslice identified a few more than everybody else and his grade shot to the moon.

Your words may be small, but your place in my life isn’t. i feel you, dog.

First, they aren’t critical in either of those roles, and second, there are a few thousand species of mosquitoes, and only five of them cause issues with human health. Get rid of those five, and you haven’t caused much ruckus. The others will be fine in their continued parts.

Now, that being said, nobody knows for certain what will happen if all five are completely eradicated, but the sentiment above seems to be the consensus among people who have studied them.

Law enforcement already can just subpoena/get-a-search-warrant-for them all they want. Why would they bother with paying a fee?

Even funner fact: anyone remember the USS Liberty? A common thought is Israel did that to pull us into their war then. Nowadays you would have a presidential candidate boldly declaring that [insert ‘vile’ country of choice] killed our troops and we must rush to war against them. I bet there are israeli leaders just salivating at the idea of repeating the scenario.

Hocus Pocus is classic 90s comedy/super-light horror. It’s gooooood.

edit: and OP says in another comment that they want to avoid it. Noooooo! …I get the sentiment, but noooooo!

I’d just prefer to tell them how to get rid of carbon in their bodies, and if they looked up the process they would get the real info about it dealing with carbon. It’s not my fault they don’t know the context of what would happen when the carbon goes away.

10 undergrads from an intro-to-psych class that held the specter of an A grade above their head to convince them to participate.

Ah, shit, what’s that initialism/mnemonic again?

I am so glad that once we’re out of school, no one in their right mind would ever not have a guide nearby with all the information you could ever want for your job.

Ah, a fellow enjoyer of greek mythology!

You might not even get a public defender. Is an expired license at the same level as a speeding ticket in your area? If so, your government might only assign public defenders to ‘criminal’ charges with potential jail times. Just be aware of that before you start desperately trying to find one that doesn’t ‘exist.’

Aye, going into it now with the knowledge of where most stuff is has definitely taken some of the shine off. I’m currently playing it again though. It’s a bloody black hole that I can’t escape from long term.

I mean, sort of. It was funny when she got pissed off and did some stupid stuff to make him leave. Didn’t she throw a refrigerator, and him with it, through the house wall?

I was with you until the Deep Rock Survivor, but good lord, that one is way better than halls of torment. While it’s not necessary, the ability to mine traps and hallways to escape is a sweet addition.

Red is also less ‘damaging’ to your night vision. https://www.nps.gov/articles/dark-adaptation-of-the-human-eye-and-the-value-of-red-flashlights.htm

Aye, it’s all about what theme you’re exploring or mood that’s being set. We don’t have batman exploding into mist when he fights people who can lift planes/cruise ships with their bare hands, because that’s not the story being told. When the theme is about the consequences of powers, rather than the escapism and being good (the ‘super’ part of superman being his morals and convictions), we get the boys and their (gory) explosions.

Lol, I do what I can. Let me try harder. I love hollow, and play back through dark souls when I can. Hollow knight’s world doesn’t quite have the same replay value for me. Dark souls doesn’t quite have enough of a game play loop difference to make me even care about the different weapons.

Too easy, frankly, and the awesome ways you can modify yourself don’t match with Dark Souls. Actually having significant, meaningful differences in your combat isn’t Dark Souls.
