@the_gayest_doggo I think I remember that Stephen King book.
It was actually aliens.
@cardassianvole That's good because I'm fairly certain none of the tollbooths have turnarounds anyway.
I discovered that when I accidentally went to San Francisco a few years ago.
@alexlaw I'm pretty sure that the cliche has had it wrong this whole time.
It's not "Death and Taxes" it's "Death and Texas"
Texas is a universal constant.
@cardassianvole What about driving? Will the tollbooths on the bridges make me turn around?
Sounds like a WTNV bit.
And now, traffic.
A person types a report. It looks nearly identical to a report they typed up the day before. The screams are in slightly different places, and the moans of misery slightly longer, but the content is mostly the same. They hit send; the wind wails in response.
They get into their car, and drive home. The message follows them. If you look out your window, you can see it right now. If you strain your ears, even hear it.
This has been traffic.
How to make money.
Step one: Have money.
Step two: leverage your money to make more money.
Step three: repeat.
@KBY30 You'll have to track down a Germany-exclusive version of the Sega Genesis to get the final piece of lore in Toy Story: 1028/Andy
@DylTheFunkyHomosexual An aspect of reality in the Dilverse is that anyone in too close of proximity to Dilbert gets renamed to a simple descriptive combined with "Dil" or "bert"
Careful not to befriend him. Not only because he's a terrible person, but because then you'll become Friendbert, and your existence will be defined entirely by your relationship to him.
@monorail Wasn't there also a bit in an episode where all of Yugi's friends were turned into monsters?
@gothslut Try Bed Bath and Beyond. Go in and ask an associate for the "Beyond" section.
@TeethTeethTeeth It was literally an entire A4 sheet folded in half. I'm frankly impressed with myself for not noticing it.
I went to an anarchist bookfair.
Got home and a few days later opened up a book I purchased to find a leaflet for a protest whose date had already passed.
@jacethechicken It's got to have a regular bass beat strong enough to trick the brain into thinking that the tone went back to baseline.
@alexlaw Having been a driver for 4 years, I've developed a theory on classification of drivers, based on how skilled they are, and how insane they are. This classification can apply both to individual drivers, as well as the driving style of people from a particular city. I'll give you an example. Los Angeles? Oh, boy, those folks are mad. But the roads are designed very specifically for cars. So, they don't need skill. Insane and unskilled drivers. Not fun to drive there.
@lynnesbian What about (square root of 2)/(pi) time signature?
A civilization sim game, but without any actual system of currency until your civilization develops it. Until then, everything consumes resources directly. Currency makes things easier to manage, but introduces losses at every level that makes things more expensive than they have to be.
@danishcookies Every time I see a post you boost, it looks like it says someone who is named "jk I'm all about that" did something called "bread boost" someone else.
That sounds like a tf2 strat or something.
@danishcookies What, like Cracker?
Anarchist. Cat. Anarkat. White Cis Male. Don't worry, I'll die eventually. Polyamorous & pansexual. Sometimes I say dumb stuff. When that happens, tell me. I'll figure it out.
Location? Idunno. The walls are grey and plain, and it's difficult to get to. Could be a bunker. Or a suburb. Hard to tell.
I drive. A lot. Many attempts have been made on my life by whatever spirit is behind bad drivers, but I'm still around.
