My professor tried to teach us that one too, but a classmate came up with an unforgettable mnemonic. Very cursed

The professor hadn't heard that one before

Quiddler is also the name of a card-based word game. It plays like Gin with a lot of Qs

I really enjoy the explosion at the end.

Through the rest of the movie the effects are timeless and suck you into the movie. Then you get that finale and remember this movie came out in the 70s

This sounds like analysis paralysis. If you have 5 games, it's easy to select one. If you have 416, it's difficult to select one.

I've often found that the more options I have, the more difficult it is to come to a decision. And when you think about "what game should I play," it sounds like a silly problem to have. But when you extend it to other problems in life, like "what should I have for dinner," then you see it start to cause some pretty serious problems.

Lately I think I spend more time trying to decide what to play than I do playing games. Then I'm not always successful in making a decision, or might run out of time, and then I don't play any games. Following the same reasoning, sometimes I don't eat dinner.

If you start to notice this is becoming an actual problem, the good news is there are tools and techniques that can help you make a decision. About a thousand of them. Good luck picking one.

To hang out together intentionally, outside of work, more than once. If you no longer ever want to hang out, they're probably not friends anymore.

I have a few coworkers I'm tempted to call friends. At the very least, we're friendly. But I also know that once either of us leave the job, we probably won't see each other anymore.

In a more general sense, I call a lot of people "friend" without necessarily considering us friends. Mostly strangers and customers, and it's meant in a disarming way, like "Sorry friend, we're sold out."

I'm friendly with most people, but then to consider someone a friend feels like taking the relationship to a new level.

I don't think I could be a police officer either. I'd have a hard time restraining myself from popping a smart-mouthed, troublesome, and reckless cop in the face.

I'm pretty sure they're equipped with a wonderfully sophisticated logging facility that's piped straight to /dev/null

I dunno, I don't think this is such a feelgood story.

I'm happy the guy came to the defense of people who needed it. I'm happy that the agressors are being charged, and I'm happy he was able to crowdfund his medical bills.

It shouldn't have happened in the first place. This is a story about violence being inflicted on our community. The crowd funding, $74,000, wasn't enough to actually cover his expenses after being struck from behind by a cowardly bigot. Dude just got lucky the doctor was willing to work pro bono.

There's more I dislike than I like about this story. I still think it belongs in this community, but I wouldn't characterize it as spreading positive news

Apparently it's been "and it works" for most of the company's history, but I remember it being "but it works" too

I'm surprised I couldn't find a video, but I'm pretty sure there was a string of ads in probably the mid 2000s that all had the same spokesman, and his delivery sure sounded like "but." They were on TV all the time in the period where I was still watching TV

This is fascinating though, I'm not sure I've ever personally witnessed the Mandela effect. I mean, I'm sure I have been before, but to actually catch it in action is new to me

If your heart's not really in it, I don't want it

In this case, you could upload it to YouTube where it will be taken down and seen by a whole no people
