I not too long ago read an article that used this metric as the key identifier for my weird transitional age demographic where we were on both sides of that phenomena. They called our fiveish year span the "Oregon Trail Generation"

That's an absolutely worthless demographic title. People played Oregon trail, on the same awful computers, from like 1980 to like 2000.

Hey, Batman didn't kill him. Gravity might kill him in a few seconds, but you can hardly blame Batman for the elemental forces of the universe.

Batman also threw a dude off the roof in his very first appearance. It's awesome.

People who don't like mushrooms should try amanitas, they'll definitely change your opinion of mushrooms.

I, too, think that people should be murdered for the crime of enjoying different foods.

It is a joke, my friend. I do not actually want people to die for the crime of throwing shade at mushrooms.

*googles amanitas* Today I learned that Nintendo hates children and wants them to die.

Actually there's like a whole bunch of different kinds of amanitas, they look like all sorts of mushrooms, and if you eat them your liver shuts down like 5 days later

over half of mushroom deaths are caused by this guy:

there's been a number of these in the past - several were fake, one was by an insane woman who was "pastor" of her church of just herself, but I think one or two have been real.

No seriously, science. Basically the whole point of you is miniaturizing animals, and yet you don't do it. I want tiny hippos, tiny giraffes, tiny bears, but all we get is dumb things. Science sucks.

Does it make me a terrible person that if I was lucky enough to find a gold bar while swimming/diving I probably wouldn't turn it in to police? I mean, if someone dropped a gold bar in a lake and couldn't be bothered to retrieve it then I'd say they probably don't want it.

I don't think you can easily sell gold bars of that worth without it raising some questions real quickly.

I think that's the most damning thing I've read yet - the drug is 62 years old. Yes they've been producing and selling the drug for 0.2% of the actual cost of the drug for 62 years but somehow managed to stay afloat.

Well, his company recently purchased it.

But if you think about it, purchasing a cheap drug for dying people at such a high price that you KNOW you have to charge hundreds of thousands of dollars a year for it is more evil than trying to keep a struggling company afloat.

The reason they got rid of it was they wanted people to use the expensive VIP tour service that is a few hundred bucks an hour that brings you to the front of lines as opposed to getting a third party to do it for you.

The fast pass is a fair compromise.

There's also no benefit to you standing in line - it's literally the only time when you don't have the opportunity to spend more money. The less time people spend in lines, the more money they'll give to the park, AND they'll be happier about their experience.
