Got an okayish run of 22:53 for VVVVVV 100%. I also tried recording it, which was generally a success. The video is up at

I was helping someone with something on her computer. I scrolled up and down several times, and the screen was full of high-contrast images. The onlookers were getting nauseated and remarked on how they can't understand how I could just do that.

Now that I'm back at my desk, I'm feeling nauseated as well, but I dare not say a word of it for fear I'll lose my street cred. Okay, not street.

Why is it that whenever I think I did well, I actually did poorly, and whenever I think I did horribly I did well?

I thought I had the worst VVVVVV speedrun ever, and then I beat my time by 10 seconds. I don't understand anymore.

interesting maps of American pronunciation

FWIW...

I prefer "caramel" with 3 syllables, but I can use both interchangeably
I don't know why they call it a "Canadian" way of pronouncing "been", because I pronounce it closer to the red version (like "sit")
I don't know what a bowie knife is
crayon -- rhymes with dawn
loyer
coleslaw
you guys
3 syllables for mayonnaise
pajamas like jam
I honestly don't know for "Pecan pie"... I think I'm closest to "PEE-can" but I actually emphasize both syllables
pop
I use crawfish or crayfish but I never really talk about them, so.
I use traffic circle usually, sometime roundabout.
Interestingly, I pronounce it "sear-up" which seems to be in the minority in the states.
sub
water fountain
sneakers
highway
sunshower
I don't really recognize any city as "The City"
never heard of drive-through liquor stores; that actually sounds like a terrible and dangerous idea.
all 3 of merry/marry/Mary are the same

Wait, there are drive-through liquor stores? And they're called brew-thrus?

What? I don't even know what to say.

Oh yeah, Atlanta's got drive-through liquor stores.  I've never actually driven through though, maybe I should try sometime.  Also, all liquor stores are called 'package stores'.  Because god-fearing southerners wouldn't drink liquor, but if they bought a 'package' and it were filled with liquid...well, then one would be obliged to make sure that liquid didn't go to waste.

I like the "no open container" laws that let you buy a margarita in a drive-thru, as long as they leave the top of the straw paper on the straw they've inserted into the margarita for you.

While walking through a footpath that had overgrown, my housemate (yes, that one) decided we should trash the footpath so we could draw a card. I groaned.

But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

And afterwards you suggested a card called overgrown King's Court: Choose no action cards, play them 3 times.

I think you'll find Overgrown King's Court was:

YOU MAY choose no action card from your hand. Play it three times.
---
When you trash this, +1 card.

It's probably worth about $6 (a little worse than King's Court, but better with T4B)

I MAY choose no action card from my hand? I decline. I don't choose no action card from my hand, therefore, I do choose an action card for my hand. I play it three times. So hey, this is just like king's court!

But this is actually way better than King's Court, since it doesn't say you can choose only one card.

I think there's probably something like Godwin's Law for the Rules Questions subforum only instead of nazi comparisons it's hypothetical cards.

I think that there's an analog of Godwin's law for all Dominion-related threads on f.ds, but instead of nazi comparisons it's edgecases.

Objection! Being given the option to choose no action doesn't imply that you also have the option to choose more than one.

At one time this was Rrenaud's law.  With Iso closed now, though, that's obviously no longer the case.  I think "Edge Cases" is the new "Iso is Shutting Down!"
