How long would Magneto have been convinced if Reed didn't bother telling him? Would he have just figured he didn't have powers and never tried to use them ever again?

Yes that’s their main use but you can also shove them unceremoniously into your mouth like an animal and devour a box in one sitting.

I like Nilla wafers as much as the next person, but banana pudding is still garbage with them or no.

In any case, the worst that can come of this is either being perma'd, which I already have a backup account for, or having some silly LP-relevant custom title that will only shame me in my majority of posts in Pet Island. In either case, money well wasted!

So, 8x6 is too big? I'll have it shrunk. And should I actually start posting in the LP forums, or should I take the next months to refine my style?

I had a magnificently senile maths/physics teacher in high school.

In year 9 we realised that if we sat in the back of class he would literally distract himself after 3-4 students at the front of the class when checking peoples work. The school was going through renovations in that year so there was always lots of storage, particularly for the school musicals in various classrooms. We used to see how many different props we could put on while he was looking away without him noticing, but he never blinked. I once left a class of his wearing multiple plastic top hats and wrapped in fake spider-webs.

He used to give detentions and punishments and then forget about them later that day. He told my friend to collect a bag of rocks during lunch break, which he did. When he brought the teacher the bag of rocks, the teacher was just like "why did you do that?"
"You asked me to."
"Why would I do that?"

You could get him distracted for over an hour by asking any random question. "How do dogs run" and "How is suede made" were stand-outs. He would give lectures on any topic no matter the class. He once spent an entire double period explaining in excruciating detail with hand-drawn diagrams how to build a brick wall. He made it so dull that at one point a kid up front asked if we could please get back to quadratic equations and he said "No, this is something you all need to know."

Anyhow to the relevant information. He had like his second heart attack while I was there. It very nearly killed him and he had a pacemaker put in. During a physics class he plugged in a van de Graaff generator (or something similar; it was some wierd doodad that sent a current through the body) and went to touch it in front of everybody (he was bald). Some kid was like, "Wait, if you have a pacemaker, won't that kill you?" and he chuckled and said "Yeah, probably," and just put it away.

It's bizarre that it was ever formatted without quote links; the original thread is from 2015, years after they were implemented. The quotes in the thread itself have links. The poster you quoted had to go out of his way to remove them. :tinfoil:

I've literally heard somebody say that at a shooting event.

"I have 65,000 rounds of 556 I don't need supplies. I'll take them."

Another SA thread discussing those tweets pointed out that solo-preppers are basically the "dragons horde of supplies for a coordinated group."


The thing I've always found funny about prepper cosplay is that if you actually think the apocalypse is coming, you should have giant water tanks and 50lb bags of salt to cure the meat you expect to hunt up in your post-apocolyptic fantasy. If society collapses gold is pointless and salt & water are some of the most valuable resources on the planet.
