If I had one I would definitely avoid main roads like one in the thumbnail or highways obviously

Indeed. The only reason I ride up and down the main road where I am is because theres both a concrete barrier and a ditch between the road and the sidewalk.

I also just don't use bike lanes. It is peak idiocy to put bikes on the same roads as cars and ultimately theres not a lot of pedestrians for me to inconvenience so, sidewalks it is.

Its also fun to just zoom around which encourages using it more, improving health prospects in the process.

The Battery catching fire is a concern as well.

Yeah if you cheap out and buy direct from China. You pay a premium buying stateside but it generally comes with the benefit that the battery isn't a death trap.

Granted I have the most basic bitch ebike there is, but even so.

Things got enough power in it that it scared the shit out of me when i rode it the first time. Basically shit my pants so hard I immediately bought a $200 helmet to protect my head.

Don't care, have an ebike.

Eh. Around me hot and sour always has too much vinegar in it.

The place I usually get chinese from has the best egg drop I've ever had by far, and I think its because they make their own broth rather than with a packet or bouillon.

Ive been at -$900ish before.

Suffice to say never turn on that feature that lets you just use your negative balance as a credit card if your bank has it. And especially not when you're basically still a kid and don't know how to adult yet.

No takers?

too bad about the no boobs.

are you blind

Idk if this was a movie or a tv show or what.

But it was an interrogation scene, and the guy being interrogated was this white...German? looking dude? He was thin and had a very defined face with thin glasses, spikey or buzzed blond or light brown hair.

And what was distinctive about the scene is that this dude at some point is able to turn on his music, which I remember just being some crummy deep fried techno that was bass boosted to all hell, which they're basically depicting as being so loud the two cops immediately start screaming in pain clutching their ears.

But the guys fine and just sits there listening to it while the cops just bleed out of their ears I guess. I walked away at this point.

Anyone recognize this? This would have been early 2000s.

U know what's crazy about taco bell...

I never crave it on my own. It actually sounds gross. But as soon as I see an advertisement or someone mention it, like this topic, I suddenly crave it and have to have it.

I've been programmed.

I was gonna eat a clean turkey sandwich for lunch, but because I saw this topic, I HAVE to have it now.

Gooble gobble

When I was homeless I discovered that theres a slew of men and women that actually find me attractive, contrary to how I percieved myself growing up and through school.

So naturally I took advantage of that. Lot of nights I got to spend in a bed thanks to just being a complete whore

Just have a rootbeer float like a normal person.

What's the most cost effective filling taco bell item? For someone that wants to buy 4-5 items to have as lunch for work.

Either their boxes or the beans and rice burritos on their value menu are my gotos.

Is there? How so?

Teachers have no real power to maintain order in their classes unless they're fortunate enough to have a supportive admin behind them, but even then.

Theres very little accountability being enforced on students for their behavior unless its so severe that it outweighs the districts fear of getting sued by the parents, but even then. Theres been cases of teachers being put in the hospital by students only to have the same students place with them again the following year.

And this is only being reinforced by backwards academic standards that overemphasizes the detrimental social effects on kids who get held back, which only goes to justify artificially inflating passage rates so that they can stay funded.

Kids are being taught they don't have to do anything and they'll still be passed along to the next grade, and it only reinforces disruptive behavior because they know that their education doesn't actually matter given all this.

And thats without getting into the kids who are learning from their parents how to bully and cheat their way through their frustrations. There was a video recently of a kid throwing a chair at a teacher, and it was obvious they did it intentionally for the person filming.

Had that teacher not had the self-control not to lay that kid out, that would have been an easy lawsuit for the parents to win, regardless of what the kid did or why.

Im of the opinion the main thing that needs to happen here is a more emphasized contract between parents and educators to better mark the boundaries of what each group can and cannot do.

Parents don't need to be shut out of how their child is educated, but there needs to be an established trust between parents and educators that cannot be violated while retaining the child in school.

Teachers need to be able to discipline their classrooms and hold disruptive students accountable in meaningful ways, up to and including total removal.

Theres a lot more that needs to be done than that, of course, but insofar as discipline goes this is whats needed.

Even sadder though is that I actually think cell phones need to be integrated into the educational process, but its not hard to see how unfettered access with no established discipline or responsibility in regards to their use ends up being just bad.

Yep. You'd think not only their most basic item but also the one uses almost the smallest amount of their ingredients would be cheaper than that but nope.

You can get burritos with rice, beans, and cheese for a $1.20 ea and you can also do their beefy burritos for like, $0.30 more or chicken burritos at the same price.

Its fortunate I really like their rice and beans burritos but still, i just want some tacos man. Its hella cheaper to just get taco stuff at walmart and get an arguably better product but still, Taco Bell is screwing themselves here lol

This garbage muddies the waters so much. There is a genuine discipline problem in schools and its only gotten worse since the pandemic, but these people are so abhorrent in what they're proposing its going to be a poison pill.

I live in Brevard but fortunately dont work here so I won't be privy to this but yeesh.

Literally the biggest scam. They'd make bank if they started selling their tacos for a dollar and did deals for less than that.

Sometimes I just want a giant sack of tacos but I have to pay $20 for it for no damn reason.

Aglio e olio time it is.

Whose the loser

Had a little get together with my DND group from when I was homeless and the topic of the pirate ship that pursued them across the ocean came up, mostly because of the name I gave it.

I mean, I totally stole it from Muppet Treasure Island, but its still pretty badass, given its captain was basically an Afro-Atlantean samurai wielding a sword that could split spells in half.

(Also, ask me about my DND setting)

How the fuck dare you insult bluebox like that.

Game Freak is literally incapable of grasping 3D development. Don't expect too much from them.

I mean, this doesn't have anything to do w that tho

A way to really change up the formula would be to have gyms be type restricted, so its a contest of who can train the better mons of the type.

It would also encourage people to catch more Pokemon throughout a playthrough if they want to not be stuck with just one mon.

Plus, itd also play into how the anime treated gyms at time. Ash was just dumb and didn't know type advantages, but they had a whole arc about who was better with Pikachu vs Surges Raichu. Thatd be awesome to capture in the games.

If you want to get technical it takes a mastery to be able to construct a monotype team thats viable.

Not that any E4 characters ever did but still.

Thats because nobody knows Gamefaqs exists unless you had a reason to come here back then AND got suckered in to the boards.

Vegy didn't gift me Pokemom Violet

Questions: are we able to transfer Home mons into the game?

And whats the consensus on which is the better version if you're not getting both?

Let's ignore the last part, and focus on the first two sentences.

This is all true.

To blame the "young people", statistically the smallest voting demographic, and the one with the smallest representation politically, for not making the changes you feel need to be made, is being very short sighted.

You're basically asking why someone didn't hit a Grand Slam, even though no one was on base.

Exactly. And in terms of what can be realistically expected, any mechanism thats successfully employed to get that demographic out at higher and higher percentages is inherently going to cause similar turnout boosts in other age groups, nullifying the advantage.

You'd literally have to have older demos either sit out or change their politics dramattically.

Normal type is so strange. Like if you look at gen 1, half are just animals like rats that don't have any special affinity. And half are nonsense creatures like Lickitung, Porygon and Chansey.

Well thats the whole idea. Normal types are mostly just animals that have pokemon powers.
