Take rule #34 and then remember porn is a niche.
Then try not to think about porn-dickens.

I kind of want to make a joke about Dickens' sentences being really long/lasting longer than they should/being really hard (to read) but I can't quite make it coherent

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Water pipes froze. Now I can't make coffee. Pretty sure pipe freezing is preventable.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

I went with the obligatory "Please sir, can I have some more?"

I once failed an English test by answering the question "What purpose did Dickens have when he wrote A Tale Of Two Cities?" with "£1 (149.41 in today's money)" (Dickens wrote the book in twenty installments, and was paid 1 shilling per installment. I hated questions like that.
Oh wow, I totally want to use that answer now.  What did you convert it to?

The conversion was different back in 2002, but the process was the same - use an inflation calculator to determine how many modern day British Pounds are equal to an 1859 pound, and then convert to US dollars.

It helps to leave taps dripping when you expect temperatures low enough.

Most people today either have somebody to spend Valentine's day with or don't.

I'm unsure whether or not I do, depending on said person's feelings.

Oh well. I haven't seen Schrodinger's Valentine's Day partner in a few days anyway.

My WTF for the day: A bunch of countries where Protestantism is the dominant faith have a holiday named after catholic saint, while a few countries where Catholicism is a big thing don't.

Because it's actually a corporate thing.
Not a faithy thing.

It's way too British to be associated with Americans TBH.

Hence the irony: the most appropriate song for American capitalist-consumerism being British.

Then you aren't going to like a game called Subnautica.

edit: I see you have it on your wish list on Steam.
