Not sure about everyone else’s overflow covers, but mine has a hole in the top, so it will still prevent overflows, it just moves it up a few inches. I mean, it will still probably overflow if you fill it all the way, and then hop in and completely submerge yourself immediately, but most people have more sense

I typically take baths when I’m travelling (i dont have to pay the hotel’s hot water bill) or when I’m sore, like from spending days on my feet in convention lines. So I’m looking forward to my post-PAX East bath later today.

Honestly, I’ve heard of condom tricks like that before, usually in tales of fleet week. I heard someone describe passing a condom partially from their mouth through their nose such that the end was out their nose but the opening in their mouth, and proceeding to inflate the portion sticking out of the nose. Have not…

Oh man, I’ve got to link this to my FFXIV raid group’s discord. In that game, a standard small party composition for a dungeon is 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 DPS. In “trial” or “raid” content those numbers are doubled. There is definitely a disparity in queue times for tank and healer vs DPS, and the game offers additional…

A few years ago at work one of my coworkers was thinking about what to get a kid for Christmas or a birthday or something. My suggestion was “something with dinosaurs.” My coworker suggested this kid at 12 was too old for dinosaurs, and my response was “Jurassic Park came out when I was a kid. Dinosaurs are going to…

All I’m saying is we don’t know that comet isn’t actually a prison for a pissed off giant dragon.

There are basically two subscription levels, entry, that lets you have one character per server, up to 8 characters total, and then the standard sub, that lets you have up to 40 characters total, with up to 8 on a server. Entry is available in 30 day increments, and standard has price breaks for 90 and 180 day subs,…

Final fantasy xiv, an mmo that had a rocky launch. Rocky enough that they ended the game with that cutscene and relaunched the game, completely overhauled, nearly a year later as Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, 2.0. Players who had played the original version could continue using their existing accounts and…

I mean, it’s been done with success under different circumstances:

I’m not sure about Don Cherry, but I want to say that Stephen Colbert might say that Saginaw needs to work on their forechecking in the neutral zone.

I wouldn’t bother with the verbiage of the rule. Like every other rule in every other sport, the rule itself and the actions on the field are up for interpretation by the officials involved in the game as it is occurring, and even if a decision is made that can incontrovertibly be disproved by readily available video…

I still wonder about the “tests” that Ruiz had apparently performed before this happened. Were they done at the same range as the failed stunt? Were they other volumes from the same encyclopedia collection? Were the test books held in place in any way or against some sort of backing, and would that have an effect on…

The date on the article suggests this went up yesterday, but the comments are clearly from a while ago. I mostly wanted to complain that the McDonalds Szechuan sauce is pretty bad.

I’m somewhat interested in this sort of thing. I work from home 3 days a week, and if I lose power or internet, I either have to drive 50 miles in to the office or burn a personal day. It would be great if I could (for a reasonable daily rate) grab a desk somewhere closer to home. Looking at Coworker, locally it only…

I believe some parts of the bay state may also accept “wisstah”

Scene from the original mary poppins returns:

Of course if it comes off of a skate, you’ve got to assess whether there was a “distinct kicking motion,” and whether or not that motion is what carries the puck into the goal

That Warcraft 3D doesn’t seem to be available at that price, I’m guessing it sold out.
