Don't know if it's schadenfreude when they dropped the retail by only $100. It's the guys who spent $1000 on Titans in March 2015 and then the 1070 comes along June 2016 and is as powerful but costs $400.

This. The only reason to buy a $1000 graphics card edge is if it nets you >$1000 in extra revenue as a result. There are industries where that's true, but for personal use that isn't about making money? No loving way.

My mom asked me for help with a possum that was messing with her grape vines. I waited outside one night with a flashlight, a couple beers and a BB gun, figuring I would pop it, it would get scared and run away, and everything would be fine.

Fifteen minutes into my vigil, I heard the fat bastard waddling through the shrubs and climbing the arbor. I lit him up with the flashlight, which made him freeze, and shot him with the BB gun. No reaction. Got a few steps closer, another shot, no reaction. Repeat 4x. At this point I'm arm's length from this dumb varmint, who's still frozen in fear. I literally reached out and poked him with the BB gun barrel, slid him a few inches down the arbor, and got no reaction. I gave up and went inside. I probably could have just picked him up and put him in the garbage can, but I didn't have the heart for it.

That's my possum story. They're ugly little fuckers but ultimately harmless.

I'm visualizing some obsessive person who stands in line for two days, using his iphone to keep in touch with people and send excuses to his boss for missing work while he waits in line for his iphone, and then gets his new iphone and immediately goes onto some apple forum so he can keep refreshing the page obsessively to find out when the next iphone will be coming out.

I only have one Possum story; one time my sisters and I were at our Grandpas and some possums came in for some bread and one of them mistook my younger sisters toe for a piece of bread and starting gnawing on it.

I saw my four your old kneeling on the ground by some bushes in the back yard. She had her face down near the plants and was looking in them, and saying in a sing song voice "I found you". She said she found a baby monster. I assumed it was one of the regular alligator lizards or garter snake, so I got down and pried the leaves apart. Hello ugly. It was a juvenile opposum staring back at me from 6 inches away.

I don't think I had ever jumped back away from something quite that fast. The Freude was on me I guess. She was right, it was a baby monster. He wandered off after we left him alone.

The jumper is an 18 year old out of jail on work release who stole that truck from the guy giving him a ride after the owner stepped out to talk to the cops.



There was a woman in that car. She managed to get out.

Right click --> copy video address. That gets you this:
code:

Which embeds automatically, though with url tags instead of img tags for some reason:
https://i.imgur.com/r5S411r.mp4

Sometimes they are gifv or some other non-embeddable version. For imgur, it often works that you can just replace gifv with gif in the url and it works, like so:



Either the mp4 or gif versions work on SA, it seems.
