    Although filling an entire trunk full of peanut butter, let’s say 500kg worth (assume a 450 litre trunk and density of 1.1 kg/l according to Google), then adding all that weight over the rear axle would affect the handling and balance of the car, potentially making it dangerous and therefore illegal to drive.

    So, it’s not actually that clear cut that it wouldn’t be illegal!




  • Technically, the line is at the second to last opponent in the direction of attack.

    The usual case is that the goalkeeper is the last opponent, so the line is at the last defender. If the keeper comes forward past some of the defenders, then the line would be at the second last defender.

    The attacker also has to be ahead of the ball to be offside, which doesn’t seem to be mentioned in the link. You could have two attackers, both in offside positions, but if the one with the ball passes to the second attacker and the second is behind the ball when the pass is made, then it is not offside.


  • So I deleted the story before I posted it, and began to realize that even though I’m 40, and should be past all this, it still hurts, and I’m a deeply broken person.

    The thing about trauma (and it likely is trauma) is that it often just doesn’t go away on its own and you need to do work on it. So, why should you be over it?

    Should is a loaded word as it pretty much always comes from what you learned as a child. You should do that. You should be like this.

    That “should” probably comes from your father when he told you how you should be as a child.

    It sounds like you aren’t over it now, but that’s ok. It’s ok not to be over stuff that happened in childhood. But the important thing to understand is that you can get over it with work. Being aware of that is the first step on that road.







  • I’ve read all nine and I can’t say that I noticed any real differences between the two.

    Each chapter in the books is written from a specific character’s perspective. From what I understand, each of the characters was written consistently by one author or the other. So, for instance, all the Naomi chapters would be written by the same person. They may not have stuck 100% to that, but I think that’s how they tried to fit things together.
