Which leads me to think of this.

I looked in the front of the copy of Foundation's Edge I borrowed from the library to see what print it is, but it just says "Print". Not "Third Print", just "Print".

Do you mean what edition? I've never seen "print" used for books in any context that makes sense with what you're saying.

It's translated from Dutch (and, btw, has a rather dumb, imho, title: "Hoeksteen van de Foundation", lit. "Cornerstone of the Foundation"), so I have no idea. I ment this.

Ok, that's usually referred to as "x edition, y printing"  in English. Being another language explains the confusion. I don't know what the practice is in the Dutch market, but in the English-speaking market having only one edition noted usually means it is the first edition (not necessarily the first printing, which is important for value purposes) in that language.

/pol/'s false flag operations are so good the LA Times fell for it.

Or rather, enough people fell for it and now it's apparently a thing.

Had to clean a printing press today since there was no cutting to do.

If that press was any more disgusting, it'd be an eldritch abomination. I should have taken before and after pictures.

Also, my manager seemed a little out of it today.

I just performed the most spectacular overshoot during a forum game.

I dunno, I'd like having two Parents day a year rather than a separate one for both gender.

It would also kill two birds with one stone by elegantly helping with the nonbinary parents as well, and while I'm a *gender binary scumtm* representation is still nice no matter how valid one think it is.

Because it's the only game where my character has a 50% or higher chance to catastrophically overshoot on almost everything he does?

The Edge Chronicles, apparently. Medium-to-good children's book, where something like that creature is a small but vicious (and fuzzy!) predator.
