Oh man, if my kids start fact-checking I’ll have a lot of explaining to do.

I love that part of the internet.

Kinda like "guy code"

"Was said he was with you last night"

"Yep, all night. Cleaned the spark plugs in my car and drained the blinker fluid. Couldn't have done it without him "

But instead it's "parent code"

"Yeah fortnight is closed. They close it so everyone can get a good night's sleep and be ready for the morning!"

I was going to tell a personal story about telling my son McDonald's was closed when I was broke or in a hurry but it reminded me of another cute store.

My son broke his arm in a McDonald's once. Hyper extended his elbow. Got a couple pins.

Anyway a year or so later they completely remodeled that McDonald's.

We drove by the demolished building during the remodel and my son shouted "that's what you get for breaking my arm! Who's broken now!"

Adorable vengeance served adorably cold.

Just FYI that cleaning spark plugs is actually a thing. Not common but sometimes they can get 'fouled' from things like oil or incorrect air/fuel mixtures.

Your son has ice in his veins. I'm very impressed.

Presumably they shut if off for 14 days, hence the name.

Problem is that it's regional. So even of you watch a big streamer, they are before 9pm so the game still works.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

All big streamers are time travelers. They stream from the times when the game works so that people who were too late to play can still watch

they login through 7 proxies to be time lords. hence origin of time cube you can't deny the logic.
