Sort of yes, you can wager an event will happen and, because this is real life you can absolutely be the decider that something does or does not happen. The whole "sex toys at the WNBA" had 2 cases where the person who threw the toy was also in the pool for it to happen. The platform refused to pay out for these as far as I know, but these people were also arrested and verified and such. I don't know what happens if you wager on a severe crime like an assassination, and don't get caught - but if it's a guarantee to get a visit from at least one of the three letter agencies if you opened that betting pool.
I've had theaters only allowing one refill, but that was either with a marker to the bottom or honor system (as far as that goes for $8 drinks). But tracking it with a chip is insanity
I hate working with Medium Screen. I look at Medium Screen so long at work but then I get home and I love having Big Screen on while I scroll for anything entertaining on Little Screen.
Bit of the running gag and inverse, but Saitama (the protagonist) repeatedly kicks the shit out of Garou (a future arc antagonist) in One Punch Man. As a result to losing to "random strangers" Garou's growth as a villain is directly influenced by his insecurity about how easily he is beaten. Saitama being the airhead doesn't even recognize him until later.
I rev mine (lightly) because my v8 is cold and experiencing morning sickness with fluids - dont have the time to let it idle before leaving in the am.
I do not want to race you through this light, I do not want to turn first into a new neutral, i do not want to run my rpm so high on freezing cold fluids, but I will absolutely gap your soccervan if you want me to I guess because I will not sit behind your ass as you drive 10 under and then come to a fucking stop to turn into a parking lot in 2 blocks for the school.
A man reads the news of this break on his shigawire paper. "Huh that sucks," he says, desensitized. "Still not the worst thing to happen this year" he muses to himself. He turns to get back into the food line, the zombie apocalypse on distant Terra already forgotten.
I don't like it but parents with kids will find anything and everything to get out of trudging 30 blocks on a muddy cold night where 3 out of 10 houses on a lane are even giving candy, listening to a temperamental 5 year old suddenly decide they're bored and its a 30 minute walk home and the temperature is dropping faster than you thought it would?
Fast forward to 10 years old, they go out with their friends and don't come back an hour later than you said to be home by, because they left their tracker-app phone at home and went to a party you told them not to. Sure parenting plays a part but anyone with kids will tell you those crafty shits will find a way to slip the sturdiest net.
I see why it took off and had held on. I hand out full size bars and host driveway games - aint spending big money on decor and blowups. My house is the one you WANT to come to. But I can tell you the rest of the neighborhood just shrugs and says "whatever".
I know c/fuckcars will be mad to hear this, but Trunk or Treats have taken off for a reason, and I would say are a large reason for Halloween dieoff. Conveniently scheduled to a weekend. (Removes school night problem) During daylight so its both warmer and visibility. (Ending early due to cold or fear of kids getting snatched or bullied for candy). You only really have to decorate your car (decor judgements and TPing people for not decorating) or the venue will have cars of approved people (removes chance of abduction or assault). It removes long walks parents may dislike - and the childhood stigma of shitty/good neighborhoods. AND kids like it because you can go to multiple through the month rather than just ONE night.
