I wonder how the American letter sized version reads.

Is that Nathan Fielder in the chat?

This is why you should not ejaculate in a school zone.

My favorite color is orange. Not sure what that says about me.

Does exit 99 use two upside-down sixes?

edit: typo

I can't pinpoint exactly why, but this image feels AI generated to me. It's like the typography and formatting is both paradoxically too professional and too sloppy in a combination you'd never see in real life.

edit: some observations: title isn't centered, character widths are inconsistent, no separation between columns, why would you highlight a price on the menu instead of the item?

There was this late 90s show called Sliders where this team travels to different parallel Earths with different histories. I would like to see that rebooted.

The Russians experimented with ternary computers in the 60s and 70s. Maybe one of those would suffice.

Safety Last (1923) starring Harold Lloyd. I think it's one of the funniest movies ever. Seen it dozens of times.

Late in my first year of grad school, I was tasked with showing a possible applicant around the college. One of my friends at school heard he was applying. She knew him from undergrad and told me he was a nightmare but didn't go into specifics. Since I worked directly with the head of my department, she pleaded with me to tell them to reject this guy from the school. Even before she told me about him, I could tell from my brief interaction with him that he was prick, but I didn't feel comfortable going along with that. His application got approved.

Cut to a year later, me and her are having to file detailed harassment complaints against this guy because he was indeed a nightmare. The school put him on probation. He kept causing all sorts of problems for me, her, and other students. I really wish I had listened to her.

What books are "illegal" in the US? I really don't know what you are referring to. Are you thinking of red states banning anti-racist and lgbtq books in local libraries?

So I get ads are terrible, obviously. I run ad-blockers all the time. But people also get angry at paywalls. So that leaves me wondering, if not through ads or subscriptions, how is a news publisher supposed to sustain itself?

 

btw, the hot sauce is mild
