Maybe it's just worse when written. The period at the end of the sentence makes it hard to see how it could be misunderstood.

To your point though, not sure if I'm aware of any programming language that would continue a statement with a following if block. Far more likely that it would fail due to lack of an element to apply the 6 to rather than having a pointer to the previous object, or he would try getting what ever the literal version of a 6 would be, or maybe some slang version.

That is true, but it is also fair to point out that you are proposing solidarity with someone who voted for fully supporting these negative things happening to other people, even if there was only a vague sense of what that might mean, and is specifically upset now that it unexpectedly turned around on him and his circle. We have to stand with and support someone we might have to fully expect to continue doing the exact same thing as the opportunity arise.

It's true his interests overlap our own, and raising everyone up is in our best interests, but just realize that we want to give liferafts to people who would prefer to poke holes in the liferafts of others. We want to save people who are acting like spoiled, entitled children and who we have no reason to believe will act any different after they've been saved. Just understand that afterwards we need a system that will survive this type of behavior.

I think the question he has is why would you have to 'invoke' a right they literally spelled out to you just seconds before?

If the cop pointed to a glass of water on the table and said 'you have the right to drink this water' and you drink the water, and later you're prosecuted for stealing water, or your blatant disregard for property was used against you in court, because you didn't explicitly state 'ok, i am invoking my right to drink this water'...

Aside from emotionally abusive relationships, what other party of life are you explicitly told you have the right to do something and then abused for doing it? It's basically manipulation disguised as helpful information.

From the squiggly lines coming from their heads, my current guess is that it's like sometime dropping their heads into their hands after working hard on something just to see it carelessly ruined and knowing they're expected to just do it again, like a bunch of workers spending all day putting up a brick wall and then someone backing into it with a car.

It does seem like he's trying to make his money back on a commission or something. If you had to design and tweak this that's not a crazy price, but if he charged someone that and then thinks he can just make a bunch more for a similar price that's definitely too high.

For what it's 'worth' though, would be shocking for someone to pay that for a novelty piece with reasonably high quality for a 3d print.

What do you mean you identify as them. Like you would like to be them? Or you consider yourself the fictional person? Like you consider yourself to actually be the character, or you are that character in real life with all the characteristics you attribute to them? It seems direct enough just to live as them with the same name and personality and backstory as you see it.

That does make sense, but seems like if that was a component of the situation it might have been mentioned, but it references him going in to finish watching the game in the living room. Sounds a whole lot more like a drinking thing and less likely to be about 'what' he was pissed off about.

Bleed out

How click-baity can you get? From reading the article, he was comparing the two and apparently not only has he not even cancelled Netflix, he basically says he's not sure he would ever be ready to give it up. As far as i can tell, he wrote the article basically to brag about having a Marshall appointment and kind of liking the feeling of buying the discs.

Head first, but the line up to the top has a really good view.

Well, can you imagine being given a million dollars and someone coming along and saying 'oh, sorry, you didn't withdraw that in time and now it's no longer there, and you owe use a $100 transaction fee'. That would really suck, wouldn't it?

Now imagine that happening 10 times a day, and you can start to imagine how horrible some of these billionaires feel every day!

Of course to make it more realistic, your job wouldn't require you to actually ever come into the office or do anything, they would occasionally double or triple your salary based on the stock market, and instead of it being a million dollars, it would be a dollar or so every once in awhile and you wouldn't know what the transaction fee was because it is effectively less than a rounding error on your current balance. Also banks will loan you money and just write it off if you don't pay it back with no impact to your credit score.
