Ah, fair. Upside down I’s. Yeah that checks out. Ok. Well at least that does mean the premise is possible, if they typed “We going to Disneyworld!” Which, could be the case if English is the dad’s second language. Though without going off the clues of which partial letters are attached to the same scraps of paper, not sure why/how you would go about piecing this together linearly instead of putting common or uncommon words together first.

But for us, a puzzle is a puzzle. Clearly I didn’t spend enough time looking. Doesn’t matter if the premise was real or fake, the puzzle was real to us.

My only excuse is that I just got home from New Zealand, and it was a total of 16 hours of flying and 4 hours of driving. And like 8 hours spent in Airports. And I didn’t sleep for any of it.

Which I was originally the I for going. They both seem to have part of a round letter after them. Unless they typo’d and did like giong or something. But none of the O’s fit that guess either. And the S isn’t partially cut off to be the round part following either I for Disney. It’s all just a little off from making sense. Like one or two of the letters have the right partial letter to make sense for having been together before cutting. It’s almost weird at this point that a couple of them do line up properly to make sense. Since the majority don’t.

Not sure what exactly was changed on it to make it fit their fun little joke better. But something for sure was.

A wife massage with no funny business may often turn into a yes funny business massage, but only if the no funny business part goes well. And even then not always. But it’s always a good idea to take the no funny business part seriously. The worst possible outcome is that she just has a better day instead.

What, the president of the United States lying about something that would be possible to prove wrong? I don’t know if he would risk his reputation like that, wouldn’t want people to think poorly of him…

Yeah, you’d think he’d like the guy that ‘exonerated’ him. Weird that he feels this way about him.

I suppose it’s the problem with alot of sci-fi. It’s very hard to make well-done science fiction that also appeals to a wide audience. So they either have to fight for it every chance and likely put up with terrible funding, or compromise the integrity to appeal to more viewers.

Wait, I only just now looked it up to realize spirits within didn’t do well… People don’t like it? I thought it was really good. It felt very much in-line with a final fantasy type story, just without the grinding combat for hours part. Hehe.

When you do the leftovers, pan-fried spaghetti feels very different and is also super delicious. Let it dry out a bit as it cooks, seems like bad instructions, but it’s so good.

Edit: I should note, this starts with the sauce and noodles already mixed. Ideally when put away, so the noodles absorb the sauce over a few days. If your diet allows for it, adding your cooking fat of choice is of course very much recommended for frying in a pan.

Ah, just figured out of all my friends it’s all the adhd’ers that have the whole mental block about seeing something and assuming it’ll be impossible to learn so never trying or looking it up. When it takes less than 5 minutes to permanently learn how to forever be able to simply solve these puzzles.

I just show them how to do it and they are surprised it’s actually as easy as I made it look.

Specifically the detective from Detroit: Become Human.

Hehe yeah, I was always put off on souls games because people described them as being hard, then when there wasn’t alot of choice early on in VR games, I picked up a souls-like since it was the closest I could get to a long-form rpg at the time. And it wasn’t that hard at all, but people were still complaining about how hard it was all the time… so I tried other souls games on desktop, and they were fine too. So I picked up the actual dark souls… this is what people were complaining about? It’s like, not even megaman difficulty?

That was when I learned that it’s a good thing there wasn’t much internet yet back when I was playing megaman games, or I might have never tried them either. And also it turns out I like “hard” games, to me that is like the whole point of games. If you finish something first try, then you didn’t get better at anything.

Hehe, I just played the cat on my sister’s playthrough. Did all the tedious/difficult stuff so she could focus on the story.

I learned so many things about myself with that game. Mistakes I would have made in real relationships had I not been taught by a game that it was actually “the bad ending”. I thought I was helping, but I was hurting.

Hehe yeah, such simple games, and yet me and my sister are there day 1 for every release.

But, sliding tile puzzles are simple, there is a reason they give them away as kids toys. If you haven’t figured out how to solve them, look it up, there is only one thing to know. But, basically it’s kind of like a figure 8 shape that you use to sort the tiles and fill them in from one corner and sweep to the opposite corner. Once you’ve done it once, every sliding tile puzzle is the exact same, and bigger ones are actually easier, just take more time.

Edit: I know it actually being simple is “the joke”, and that it’s maybe an adhd thing that gets in the way for people that see it and just assume it’ll be too hard, without checking.

You don’t understand, it takes like 15 seconds. That’s 15 less seconds I could have spent revving my truck in the parking lot to impress everyone. It’s so loud they all cover their ears and glare at me, they are so impressed.

He isn’t technically able to do most of the stuff he does do. He just does it, and then time passes and then it gets declared retroactively illegal… but it still happened. He’ll probably get punished at some point… right?

Oh that sucks, what kind of scientist was she before the brain injury?

I will say, the colors chosen for the set do make it look a bit like a colorised photo now. Though it’s hard to say how much of that is the original color on set and how much was lost to the camera back then. It was tough to light/balance stuff well back then. Especially if they changed cameras, or if the set was made with a different camera in mind either way.

Behind the scenes footage always looks different back then from what aired. Not just from lack a of post-processing, like it would now, but also a lack of “pre-processing”, lol.

That’s interesting, just looked it up assuming I had likely heard the uncensored version at least once in my life, curious what could be removed from it. But yeah, turns out I have never once heard the full version. That is a very good example.
