Hmm. I also turn 50 this year. I don’t think I knew Canada’s Celsius use was the same age as me.

This is just this generation crop circles. Nothing more.

Expound please.

I am almost 50 years old. I have spent my life staring at the night sky. Pretty much nightly I will spend up to an hour just looking up. I’m not an astronomer, just a dreamer.

I have never seen anything that was unexplainable. I have seen things I wasn’t quite sure what they were in the moment, notably the Starlink satellites, but never something that made me think it was a UFO/UAP.

Granted I’m a small town Canadian boy so perhaps the aliens don’t give a shit about me or my geographical region, but surely I’d have seen something by now.

I will note that the uptick in “sightings” have coincided nicely with the increased availability of hobbies drones.

Thanks. That’s helpful. And because I had to know:

Among unfathomable “Diseases and Casualties,” Planet (or plannet) was “likely a shorthand for “planet-struck because] Many medical practitioners believed the planets influenced health and sanity.” The label applied to any sudden illness or death, such as a heart attack or aneurysm, according to “15 Historic Diseases that Competed with Bubonic Plague.”

A lot of people in this thread claiming that turkeys can fly, are not realizing that in context of this meme the turkeys were tossed from a helicopter. Makes a difference.

“Took some, gave more” is a pretty baller line.

I was looking for a winter jacket a few years ago and tried Amazon. I was scrolling through, and I wasn’t finding anything. So I sorted by price, high to low, thinking, I’m not poor I can splurge on a nice jacket.

Top of the list was a jacket for $20K. I decided to stop saying shit like “I’m not poor”.

Peasant.

My CD player had an FM transmitter that I tuned the car radio to.

I remember the first time I woke myself from a bad dream. I was pretty young, and in my dream I was being chased by a monster and I suddenly realized that it was a dream and I could chase the monster back. So I turned around (in my dream) and started to chase the fucker.

I recall waking up laughing.

My head canon for this pic is that the bear isn’t driving the mech. He’s just along for the ride and having a great time.

And usually just take pictures of things at work as a note taking method.

I don’t know the physics behind it, or if it’s even true (could just be a placebo effect), but if you scrunch the paper there is less streaking on the clean up.

Whichever lucky girl Denethor was going down on.

Sure. But the folks who put the knowledge in a digestible format should be rewarded for their efforts.

Babylon 5 had wizards.

lol. “If you agree with us, you can stay.”

No murders. Everything else you can apologize for.

Not OP, but I didn’t like what they did to Chani. Kinda felt like that character got done dirty.

In the books, she was pretty much ride or die. The movie, not so much.

From my quick search and bad memory, it can be played solo, but it looks like combat requires a group to enable all the feats and abilities. Doesn’t look like they’re implementing a solo build that can do it without some serious grind. But I’m sure someone will game out a solution.

I will probably still take it for a quick spin if the reviews are good, but as an old dude who can’t dedicate time to MMOs to be good at them, I’d just rather all games be made to suit my particular tastes. /s
