Oh yeah that's happened. I had like a minor back strain already, took me a moment to stand up. In the middle of that process, I sneezed. Huge mistake.

~~He's also rich and Jewish, probably doesn't give a fuck about any injustice unless it's antisemitism.~~

Edit: so it turns out he's spoken out against injustice plenty of times before, when it wasn't about Jews. He even lobbied to get more non-white people on Friends, such as his character's Asian-American girlfriend. It's not all disingenious with him, even though his support of Israel is regretful.

So the thing is he's actually off his meds according to a lot of people. Blame the lack of drugs instead of the drugs

Now I'm not an American and definitely not a Latino, but I've heard there's a huge amount of Latinos who hate Latinos and want them all to stay out of the country (I.e fuck you, got mine), which is part of why they vote republican. Also all the Cuban refugees who really hate Cuba so they also vote republican just to make sure democrats don't ease the sanctions on Cuba - which are of course making life hard for people who have not yet escaped Cuba. Hell I bet without the sanctions a lot of people wouldn't be leaving it in the first place.

If all that is true, honestly, this is a peak leopards eating faces moment.

I've been out of school for a decade now, but honestly at least when I was playing Hill Climb Racing, I shut the fuck up and didn't disturb others. Otherwise I'd just be blabbering with my friends and that's a much bigger issue for other students.

I graduated with pretty much all 5s and just one or two 4s. Our scale goes up to 5. So it's not like I was a dumbass who just refused to learn. You just can't give a fast learner with ADHD the textbook and expect him to not know all of the course material a week in. It's changed now, but my teenage brain was capable of processing enormous amounts of new information really fast (except subjects that were straight up memorization of facts, like history). I had literally nothing to do in class after the first week or 2 of a course.

Honestly a better answer than what they would've expected her to produce.

Ubuntu Karmic Koala. To be fair, I was a kid and that was, according to people on the Internet, the most likely to work. And so it did - it had out of the box support for my wifi adapter, which some other distros I tried later did not, I had to use something called ndiswrapper. Of course I did not yet know about compiling my own configured kernel, that came a month or 2 later.

I only stayed on Ubuntu for a while, then tried Mint, used that on and off for years, dabbled with Arch at some point, too. In the last 5 years I've used PopOs, Gentoo, OpenSuse, NixOS. I'm not gonna bother with capitalization and punctuation on some of these.

It only says most can't - but we'll never be able to prove that such a whale does not exist at all.

Meanwhile in Estonia, most couriers will call you ahead of time to make sure you're home, tell you an ETA, and then call 1-10 minutes before arriving. If you're not home, you can arrange for a different location to meet if it has to be signed, ask them to put the package somewhere if it doesn't need to be signed, or since these very same couriers are also the people stocking the package machines near stores, they might be able to leave the package at one of those, depending on the company.

For some companies you even get a rough ETA range the day before AND the driver will call you before delivery.

I live in a country that gets very icy for almost half the year and honestly while AWD is a QoL improvement, it's nowhere near necessary. Good winter tires do so much more for you and RWD gives you more control than FWD at least.

AWD doesn't help you brake better unfortunately.

Damn, be glad you didn't boil your brake fluid though.
