This is where we are now?
C'mon, Valve has been extremely off hands in moderating their platform since day one. It's a problem, especially since their business model is to provide people value for using their service over DRM-free and piracy options.
Ugh.
At least Arial exists. And Helvetica. But Times New Roman? What is this, English class in the early aughts? 12pt font, double spaced with one inch margins?
Hell, if you want wanna make America great again make it Courier; tech bros'll think you're coding but we know you really just want to take us back to late 1800s when typewriters and bad economic policy were in. Or maybe something appropriate for this administration, like Wingdings.
If they manage to reel it in, what happens? Does Earth get a new orientation?
Ah, my teenage hero. Good chance I direct downloaded something; the Internet was so much better back then, lol.
This actually happened to me. I still had to look busy so I mostly just studied more or worked on a second job I had grading papers. I also spent a bit of time writing stories and designing things. Adding in something creative can help your brain balance things out.
Flannel's plaid disrupts any curves so it's pretty good for covering up bellies in particular. A big reason I'm a fan of the season of flannel (plus scarfs are nice, too).
Fun unsolicited social psych lesson: in terms of persuasion, spontaneous messaging is catchier but thoughtful messaging is more likely to have a stronger long term impact. Often best to use both.
It's not always the same level as debate, but the idea is there. Why buy? It's got safety standards. It builds strong bones. It's good for the environment. Good? Ok now here's emotional music and a celebrity you like.
Research shows spontaneous messaging without the cognitive side isn't going to sway attitudes in a meaningful way, although the latter might be needed to get attention (and most won't work if someone is already decided, then you really do need debate lol).
That said, I'm pretty sure the average ad is just trying to keep a brand in public consciousness, since that's taught in marketing programs. Some research on associative learning might support that but I think it's weak at best.
That's just what I was thinking. Do they swoosh the joke and just assume OP is an asshole?
Technically there is a notation for parallel lines so you can't actually assume that, but I agree with everyone else that this would have been funnier if it added up to 180 degrees.
Btw. PSA to young folks, that notation looks like > on each line and some standardized tests will fucking get you on a technically with that shit, especially with the "it's impossible to know" answer being an option.
I can smell the internal mold growth in this picture.
Hell yeah.
Oh, I was so into UT but not for the reason everyone else was in middle school. I loved level editing and I made stages for friends. UT editor was subtractive and it was more intuitive, plus I had oodles of graph paper to plan out levels during class time when I was supposed to be paying attention.
And 6x7 is 42, so now every generation can be happy.
