I have no problem with that. I entered my parent code and the message was sent.

It could be, but I managed to send it by entering my parent code.

The more I look, the weirder it gets. FUCKING MACINTOSH?

He looks like the thumbs up boy from the ancient meme.

I never said it had to be an app or a card in your phone’s wallet, although it’s not a bad idea. Passports have chips now. I just think it doesn’t need to be a booklet anymore.

Nah. My mother had to stay more than two hours in a line in Atlanta’s immigration because the system went down.

Why are passports still a booklet? Everything is digital now. We don’t need stamps or visas in the passport anymore. It serves no purpose.

I think the principal is the white bearded guy. I don’t see the G-man being the enemy, because it’s him who wake up Freeman in HL2. “Wake up, Mr Freeman, wake up and smell the ashes.”
In HL1 I’ve always seen him as the corporate fucker who is trying to save the company.

This is even more interesting if you notice that Americans use fractions a lot, maybe even more than countries with metric system. It’s 1/2 pound, 5/8 inch, 3/4 mile and so on. Countries with metric system just change the units. Typically we don’t say 1/2 km, we say 500m.

Typically 2, sometimes 5 and rarely 20.

Wow, those channels go so inland that I’d take a day only to get to the ocean.

I’ve told this story before, about our last fax server.

Work -> PDF -> send fax -> receive fax -> PDF -> work

Police in Brazil likes to give interesting names to their operations. But I don’t think they know what that order means, because they’re going after car thieves.

I don't know exactly why. A quick search told me that "because the people wanted that way". In Brazil, we don't use the area code for local calls, so, if they created a new area code for the same city (like we have in Montreal, the 514 and the 438), it would cause confusion.

If you like double entendres, you’ll love @lyndsaydotw on Instagram. She reads children books that are not exactly for children. Some are stupidly funny.

Brazil has a stupid numbering system for phones, now. Instead of having three digits area codes and several area codes for highly populated areas, they have two digits area codes and nine digits phone numbers. (But it’s not the case here, here is a scam caller)

Crazy Hair Day is a thing in schools. Maybe she’s a teacher.

Thanks god nothing bad happened. (It happened) Thanks god it was not bad. (It was bad) Thanks god they didn’t die. (They died) Well, it was god wish.

The ship building is convoluted, difficult to establish where the doors/passageways will be. My beef is with the guns selection. We have several classes of guns but they all get mixed up in the menu.

I thought the story was weak as hell, to say the least.

Have you played No Man’s Sky? That’s how you have a good transition between space and land. Having loading screens when entering a big building doesn’t bother me. But the bugs in having or not doors and being or not in a place without atmosphere, does.
