Those are added afterwards. You can't land on side 24 if theres on 20.

Quite apart from that, it wasn't a discussion of that sort. It was a pair of students waiting outside a Stats classroom next to mine; one was explaining simple probability to the other.

This matters only if you're interpreting casual spoken word as grammatically literal.

Maybe if you raised the planck constant a bit, and the numbers started tunneling?

WTF for today: Hyperrealistic Drawing, and more.

There's spambots haunting dead quicktopic topics.

[Max White]

Creepy.

I once programmed a dice roller to always give me 20, the rest of the group got a bit suspicious when I started rolling natural twenties on a D6

While searching for something utterly unrelated, I came across this clip claiming that Obama is secretly a cloned copy of the 18th dynasty Egyptian pharaoh Akenhaten.
