If it’s MY car why would adverts be in it?

Because you're too poor to afford the monthly payment on the ad-free model.

Frog, dog, and kitten, over and over and over in completely arbitrary orderings.

I remember I thought it was awful when I read it in seventh grade, but tbh I trust the opinion of a random stranger online more than I trust seventh grade me.

The one thing I remember was the kid Kenny who sat next to me in english period looked at the page I was on and picked out a sentence that was something like '"God damn it!", the cook ejaculated." and made a big thing about it and the teacher started yelling at us to quiet down. I genuinely don't think I'd remember the book existed otherwise.

-day/night, etc

Once she pieces together that dusk and dawn are in there too she'll figure out day should be mid-day and night should be mid-night. She's right there to becoming history's second timecuber. All she needs to do is take that step past duality, from two to four.

Tony's great. He does a thing he calls "Detroit style stuffed pizza" which does not really seem to be a Detroit style pizza at all but it's fantastic nonetheless.

A lot of people like his sandwiches and visually they look very appetizing, but for whatever reason they don't hit the spot for me. His pizzas are spectacular, and good breadsticks and wings too.

I don't read five star reviews ever anymore. If I want to find a believable endorsement of a product, I'll look for a four-star review that contains a criticism that isn't that bothersome to me personally, but legitimate enough that I can imagine a customer who would be deterred by it.

We moved a year ago, and I found my favorite pizza guy, Tony, by maybe the most convincing online review I've ever read. The most recent review on google maps was a one-star that was basically like "I met Tony and he casually used foul language etc etc there is no need for profanity etc pizza was some of the best I've ever had though"

Maybe like twenty years ago my Demonoid account had a glitch where it showed my download as a few bytes, regardless of how much I was actually downloading. The number definitely should have been way way higher. Every time I would log on the digits for my ratio would run off the side of the screen.

Here's Roto-Borola, who has somehow fallen asleep while sitting up like a person.

I'm considering getting back into pc gaming, it's honestly been a couple decades so I'm ludicrously out of touch. On top of that I don't know shit about wine, in my 10-15 years of running linux I think I've only run wine one time, right after making the switch. I quickly decided using native apps was easier and I've never really needed any software badly enough.

Anyway, my assumption is that linux piracy is so scarce that I'd be better off just looking to run windows cracks through wine, is that accurate? Are there any decent private trackers for games with a reasonably low entry barrier (an interview process for example)?

I saw the picture before reading the edit and was trying to imagine what OP was doing that made the end key significantly more useful than the home key, like not going backwards on principle or something.

I've been paying one euro per month for posteo for almost a decade now.

I remember thinking that surely Duke Nukem Forever would turn out awesome once it's finally finished. After seeing the reception I just decided it wasn't worth checking out.
