This would make a good first person dream logic horror game, where you have to pee but can't find the toilet despite following the signs.

Just needs that Hollywood "Mexico" color grading to be spot on. Remove the audio and put that spooky music from the alien invasion movie I can never remember the name of and it's golden.

Back when I had a car, I got an OBD-II bluetooth plug so I could hook into the diagnostics stuff with my phone, it was neat. Wasn't ever particularly useful for anything but checking what the check engine light meant.

Right so one of the best business plans I've ever heard was someone in orlur city would wanted to setup a pizza van business. Fine, nothing exceptional there, pizza oven in a van job done. Now the USP was they would drive to your house and make the pizza on your doorstep. Which sounds great until you think for half a second how this works as a business. Either your pizzas are like £40 each or you go bankrupt.

The solution? Maybe they could make the pizzas on the way to the house? I wish more than anything else in this world that they did not get talked out of doing this and they had livestreamed a guy trying to make an artisan pizza in the back of a moving van.

No one who suggested this idea had any food business experience you'll be shocked to hear.
This is just the opening to Snow Crash

The plants are called "spurge" because they're used for purging.

Though I can't attest to anyone actually trying the pure extract directly.

That my problem with super hot stuff - so often they taste like poo poo.

They're designed for macho idiots to show off to other macho idiots. Man, I just want some tasty hot poo poo.
My variety 5-pack from Humble House should arrive today. I got their Puya & Pasilla hot sauce randomly a while back and it is fantastic while also being relatively mild.

Author tried to blame it on a friend of hers in the Reylo fandom(complete with fake Discord messages where she confronts her friend) but nobody took the bait and pointed out how fake the whole thing looked.
Also, and I'm going from memory of when this was brought up in a different thread, said author was known for a reylo esports fanfiction based on discord chats or ... something. point being she was already known for faking discord chats for fiction. also esports somehow, i haven't looked into it past that summary.

Because I like watching streamers who're chill, and not having a contentious or toxic relationship with the chatters is usually a pretty good indicator.
I'll recommend HokiHoshi (racing games, primarily Forza), EliminateHQ (EDM producer, memey, held the Crank Dat speedrun world record for a bit), and LetsGameItOut (of youtube fame)

Even ignoring how common dashcams are or someone in a car deciding to film a cool bike, a lot of motorcyclists have helmet cams.
Yeah, but it's being filmed from the opposite sidewalk!

Looks like there's a car dealership on the far side of the street though, this may not be that rare of an occurence.

Between ad-blocking and an ad/malware blocking DNS, I haven't had any issues with ads at all except I think with Pluto TV where it would occasionally think it was playing an ad so if it hosed up where I was it was a hassle to get back.

Believe it or not it really is a reaction that some people get. I know because I used to get it all the time when I was a little kid. Episodes of Painting with Bob Ross would trigger it for me and I would get this weird sensation of pulsating "relaxation" that would start on the crown of my scalp and pass over my entire head. I would just be completely zoned out and zombified. My parents thought it was weird at first but then figured out they could use it to make me calm the gently caress down when I was being annoying.
The term for this is "frisson".

I dunno, it almost seems worse to do it without even thinking about it than it does to have done it deliberately. At least there might have been a reason if they were tossing it at someone with purpose.

Plenty of stupid regardless, of course.

As a pool player, I recently looked at a place and thought "this loft area would be perfect for a pool table if it was possible to get one up here." Then I looked down at the tile flooring on the floor below and went "lol nevermind"
