  • I left early in the morning with as much stuff as I could, I went to the next town over and sat in the parking lot waiting for the rental place to open so she wouldn’t have a chance of browsing around town before work and find me. Before I got the rental I got all my money out as well. Aftrt getting the rental I went back to the house

    I’m really confused about the logistics of this. How did he get to the next town over and back? Did he take the shared car? How does he get the rental car then, does one of the staff bring it? Why would she be looking for him around town, was it one of his days off so she expected him to stay home? Or would she just notice all the missing things?




  • Monopoly has one great rule (or lack of specificity), that it doesn’t put any restricting on when you are able to trade (doesn’t even say it has to be your turn!). This creates a great ten minutes or so when most of the properties are bought and people are making interesting deals with each other.

    Everything else in the game is bad because there are very few interesting decisions to make. The dice tell you where you go and the space you land on tells you what to do. Strictly you “decide” whether or not to buy an available property if you land on it, but it’s virtually always a good idea. In the rare auction case you can decide your bid. You can decide which order you mortgage off your properties if you are out of money. I think one of the chance/CC cards has a choice on it? Even buying houses is kind of dull since you have to build them evenly across the block.

    I think the point is that the bladder is above where the pee comes out so gravity could be pulling it out of the body. Aiming upwards wouldn’t change this relationship because the pee is outside the body at that point. By being upside down the bladder is now below where the pee comes out and gravity would be keeping it in. By being able to pee upside down, he demonstrates that gravity is not a necessary component.

    I think it can be demonstrated by aiming upwards with some extra pressure though. If gravity were the only thing pulling pee out, i wouldn’t be able to shoot over someone’s head for instance as the pee wouldn’t have enough kinetic energy. Thus gravity is not the only component.
