What did you say the strategy was?

I used to occasionally run like this playing sports, but normally only for a few paces looking at an object in the sky getting to reach/dive for it.

I might be remembering wrong, but I think some weighted value gets assigned to videos after a recent update, so they're more likely to show up in your feed than images. So the clickbait pages just started making still imagine into videos to take advantage of it and not lose out on those sweet clicks.

Also they got ads autoplaying in autoplay videos now. So they need lots of videos to play, even of nothing.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

It was the sonic run at my school. No one ever did it, like in public. But me and my friends tried it one weekend. We were were having an argument whether it was even possible and decided to run full tilt down a hill like that. We all fell flat on our stupid faces.

quote:

There are prominent warning signs in the area instructing beachgoers not to stand near the fence because of the dangerous air blasts.

The island's tourism director, Rolando Brison, told the New Zealand Herald he had spoken to the family of the dead woman.

"I met with the family of the deceased this evening and while they recognised that what they did was wrong, through the clearly visible danger signs, they regret that risk they took turned out in the worst possible way," he said.
The newspaper also said the plane taking off was a Boeing 737, a commercial jet. A number of local media reports said the woman struck her head on concrete when she was blown back from the fence line.

In a statement, Sint Maarten police said they visit the area daily to discourage tourists from clinging to the runway fence.

They at least try to keep the vapid tourists out...

So some of you probably know Canuck the Crow. He's a local celeb bird in Vancouver, and the Pacific National Exhibition decided to donate $1000 to a bird hospital in his honour. The people he associates with have agreed to take him to the expo to hang out because people want to see him. As part of the marketing strategy, PNE released a statement saying Canuck has been hired and is making $12.27 an hour.

At least one person can't handle it.

Maybe he's not even running anymore after the disaster of his death rally. My guess is that your relative probably isn't going to be as interested in this other fine candidate, who is an idiot on or off social media.

Did you know that in the Star Wars expanded universe books, "vape" is both slang for "vaporize", which I suppose happens a lot in Star Wars, and also a common curse word comparable to "gently caress?"

It's fantastic

quote:

Mara clucked. "Darling", she said in disingenuous tones. "I love you, you are my life and my light. If you ever do this to me again, I will vape you where you stand." She squeezed his hand fondly.

quote:

"Vaping moffs!" Vehn swore. "You Jedi are sorcerors."

quote:

"None of the children are on your ship, Captain," Solusar said in a voice that could saw through bones. "Nothing prevents us vaping you."

quote:

Still whining, the trundle cart passed an open groundcar. Its elderly Lanteeban driver flashed them a startled, disapproving look. Vape it. He eased off the accelerator.

quote:

"Show yourself, you vaping scum!" His belly twisted. He'd caught Durd's scent.
