There’s at least one instance on futurama where a space ship is flown through a drive-through that’s just out in the vacuum of space

“Anything that isn’t nothing”

Helps me push through when executive dysfunction hits. Getting outside for even just a little bit is a whole lot better than staying inside while telling myself I’m going to run 3 miles, for example

When I said “emulsified with garlic” I was trying to convey the idea that the garlic is the emulsifier. “Oil emulsified by egg with garlic added for flavor” is not an aioli by its rigid definition, but it does fit the american colloqual use

Aioli is “garlic and oil” by translation. By definition aioli is a spread made from oil emulsified with garlic, which mixing garlic into mayonnaise does not achieve. That said, the colloquial use of aioli to refer to just about any thick smooth spread is well on its way to changing that. Pedants like me can fight it all we want, but languages evolve. It’s just what they do.

Tolerating boredom is a skill worth developing

I think of it as being (sorta) similar to spraying and wiping down a dirty countertop. The spray alone isn’t going to get it fully clean, but it makes the wipe about a thousand times more effective at finishing the job.

Welcome to 2024 where we announce the possibility of an upcoming announcement.

If someone’s using the reasoning of drunk drivers to rationalize their behavior, that’s not a great sign.

You’re someone else before the bite, and then you -become- Danny DeVito

Even more braindead than that, they file it under “bad thing that happened during biden presidency”

I don’t even care enough to pirate shows any more. I’m just content with missing out

Pizza is a very fatty, often greasy food, and acidic taste balances out greasiness in the mouth

Elsewhere in this threat you mentioned that kiting can be tough if the terrain isn’t great. To that end, one of the first things you can think about when you enter a new cave/room is “if a swarm breaks out while we’re in here, where should i run to?”

Having that plan ready to go is excellent for preventing yourself from falling into situations where you can’t move around and kite well, since you always have a moment to prep before a swarm actually spawns

When kiting becomes unfeasible, here’s what the classes can do.

Gunner has shields as a panic button to create enough space to clear bugs down to a kitable horde.

Driller (especially with sticky fuel) can obliterate bugs coming from particular directions to help prevent the team from getting flanked.

Engi with breach cutter can create a lane to escape through, or if you have prep time he can set up repellant platforms to funnel bugs into choke points.

Scout can always kite, but should be ready to support the team with IFGs, etc
