Read the article. That's not at all what this is about.

I went to a screening of John Dies at the End in 2012 and met Don Coscarelli afterwards. He was standing off to the side chatting with someone who appeared to be a friend of his.

I'd brought my DVD of Bubba Ho-Tep and asked him to autograph it. He looked at me for a couple of seconds, turned to his friend, and said "Can you believe that it's been 10 years, and people still like this movie?" We all laughed and he was happy to sign it. Very cool guy.

Not a controlled environment but it's happened several times, with varied results.

Not glass, but hardened resin. Used to track littoral currents and drift. Has metal so it can be found later with a metal detector.

Better call customer support.

Of course, they're just going to tell you to turn it off and back on again.

Ok, fuck them. But shutting down this nonprofit organization doesn't directly affect their bottom line. It may eventually have an indirect effect.

My point is that by shutting down, the only obvious direct effect is that advertisements are now more likely to appear adjacent to bullshit hate propaganda. This doesn't substantially hurt the advertisers in a large way - it hurts people more because it elevates the visibility of hate speech. Why would you think that's good? This does absolutely fuck all to stop advertising or advertisers.

It was published several times before he got his job at cracked.com. First it was a collection of stories he wrote for Halloween over several years on his blog pointlesswasteoftime.com, then he self-published, then it was published by Permuted Press (a small horror publisher), and finally Thomas Dunne.

I agree, but for clarification it was a different teen whom he shot, who still had his BB gun.

There were 3 teens, two with BB guns. The first dropped his and was on the ground, straddled by Shooter McFuckhead when the second, still standing, was shot.

Thank god there was a "good guy with a gun" there. Otherwise nobody would have died!

OP isn't saying not to add the requirement. They're saying it should read "minimum 5 years", not "minimum 5 to 10 years" which makes no sense.
