If it's every weekend at the same time, then anyone who works on that weekend day will never be able to go to any protest, whereas the people who can will find themselves expected to always be the ones at the protest. A schedule that moves around a little gives people a chance to take turns protesting when they are able.

If it's going to have some kind of inventory system... figure out a way to prevent players from hoarding high-value items until the end of the game, at which point they are either meaningless because you're so leveled up, or else you can trivially defeat the final boss by spamming all the holy hand grenades you've been socking away.

This is a valuable way of seeing how prices have changed in different ways for different categories, just since 2000.

I knew a guy who was raising a Malamute/Wolf hybrid puppy and regularly being used as a chew toy and he got into a skiing accident and when the ski patrol came to scrape him up they were convinced that he was an absolutely massive heroin addict.

Now I want to see SSJ3 Goku with his hair all neatly braided like Rapunzel's was at the festival.

EDIT: Okay, it's ugly as sin, but here it is:

I dunno, if you look at the track record, Afghanistan is a pretty impressive military power. They defeated the US, Russia, Britain...

My kid was supposed to bring in objects for show and tell that started with tw- and tr- and after casting about for a minute I thought of sending her in with a TWink with a dumpTRuck ass, and I think the internet has broken my mind.

 

No bourbon or anything, just spicy ginger ale and sour cherry.

Brands blacked out so as to not be promoting products.

 
 

A quick search suggests that the average American uses about 1.3 pounds of honey per year. If I'm 40 years old, and guess that I might live to be 80, that's only 52 pounds of honey, which I could easily buy in bulk. Honey doesn't expire, and even assuming the price doesn't skyrocket from bee die-offs, inflation alone will make the price go up over time.

Does it make sense to buy all the rest of the honey I'll ever need for the rest of my life, right now?

Theme

The future, a place where all of us will live! New technologies will continue to improve life for all, as we master the atom, the electroradio wave, and the magnetic storage tape!

Good luck, and most importantly, have fun!
