LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICH?
@carl669 CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARL!
Where did you hide your phylactery?
@Cythwulf I traded it for a pikachu
Have you ever been arrested?
@therealjrn
Arrested (handcuffed, read rights, taken downtown etc) - once
Taken home in the back of a cop car, a few times
Convicted: No
All my interactions with the law have to do with my siblings, who are a bunch of idiots, and still to this day are up to no good.
How is your name pronounced?
Can’t tell if it’s lich as in the Undead creature of fantasy.
Or if it’s supposed to be read as “lick”.
@FeralRants
Give this a listen
@FeralRants @lichme So that popping sound on the end of that audio clip is mandatory?
Yes, yes it is
Sailboat or powerboat?
@CaptAmehrican
Fishin’/Motor Boat > Sailboat > Power/Speed Boat
Manual or automatic car transmission?
@therealjrn I never learned manual. My vehicle is automatic with a manual mode.
Have you ever been up in a helicopter?
@therealjrn I have not. My brother has (when he was 14 I think). He had to be flown to the hospital after being hit by a car.
@lichme Ouch. Not the best way to get a copter ride. I hope he made a full recovery?
@therealjrn Not really. He ended up with a broken neck, ribs, leg, and a paralyzed arm that still doesn’t function. The hospital didn’t know his neck was broken until two weeks after the fact.
Also, he was technically dead for about 5 minutes. After he got hit, he was thrown like 50 feet into a ditch filled with water. Luckily he had a friend with him who was able to flag down a police office that was passing by.
Recovery took years. All because some asshat decided he wanted to pass on the should to make a pizza delivery in time.
@lichme ugh.
@therealjrn This was written by my mom, a year after the accident, and published in the local paper.
@lichme
The asking for sympathy… That reminds me of the athlete that raped a girl behind a dumpster. Everyone was asking for a lighter sentencing so that they don’t ruin his athletic career. Some people should just be sentenced to rot.
@lichme @therealjrn Damn. I am very sorry your family has had to experience this.
@RiotDemon I remember that and it made me cringe. Former Stanford University varsity swimmer if I recall.
@lichme Oh my gosh. That is just horrible for your brother, your mom, your entire family…
@lichme @therealjrn wow only 3 months and 18 months of lost license? That seems I dunno sort of light for what happened? I mean sure murder wasn’t involved but the driver intentionally ignored traffic laws, and for the most part ended someone’e life for a pizza. Did you guys sue him or the pizza company for anything?
What was the reception from Woot for Wootstalker when it became a thing?
@tnhillbillygal A (really awesome) former woot employee @adq was the one who got started me on Wootstalker technically. Reception has been great for the most part. I’ve worked with many of their employees directly on projects, and at one point I was in discussions with them to work there.
They’ve featured my site in some live streams and directed people to use it. If they have any issues with it, we get it worked out pretty quickly.
How do you take your coffee?
@moonhat Orally or…?
@moonhat
I’ll have 3-4 cups throughout the day, drinking it right up until bed.
Hot coffee: Made at home/work - breakfast blend with 2 splenda and hazelnut creamer
Cold coffee: Normally don’t order it, but I recently bought this thing on meh, and have just been adding milk to it once it’s ready.
Frappe: My go to is caramel cocoa cluster at starbucks
@lichme I bought that cold coffee thing on meh too, and tried using it the other weekend. I didn’t see what the difference was from just taking leftover cofffee and pouring it over ice. What’s the deal with it?
@moonhat It’s supposed to be less acidic I guess? I like being able to have it on hand, in larger quantities. I don’t own a coffee pot.
Please share a story about a “potty emergency” you have experienced.
@Limewater
When I was little, up until about the time I started kindergarten, I used to come out of the bathroom after a #2, bend over in front of my mom while giving her a good view, and ask her “Is my bum poopy?” Luckily I stopped before I had to ask the teacher.
More recently, a few years back, I was outside a restaurant hanging out with some family… uh oh…
Ran into the bathroom doing everything I could to distract myself. Closed/locked the door, dropped trou, got (almost) into position, then BOOM.
2 rolls of paper towel later, and everything was all good.
Do you vote in all the elections or just the big ones?
@lichme follow up question
Do you have dual citizenship?
@therealjrn @Barney I am not a US citizen, and therefore cannot vote in the “big ones”. My permanent resident card actually expires next year.
@lichme Um, how can a “permanent” resident card expire? What do you have to do to renew it?
@Barney Pay a bunch of money, fill out some application forms, possibly go in for another interview
Or I can pay even more money, fill out some more forms, and take a test to get citizenship.
@Barney @lichme born in canada too. . moved here when i was 8. in 1968. i liked having duel, options ya know. but, i’m an american! and i never wanted to live in canada again anyways. so finally in 2000, i went and got my citizenship, so i could vote. so some forms and a test and money… i think under 500 bucks? and you have to go to a fancy ceremony where you renounce your born country. you get a special papers too. unless you want the option to live back in canada? you should just go get your citizenship.
@therealjrn I vote in all elections.
@Barney @mick The price is up to $725 with biometrics. Also, I do want the option to live back in Canada. If dual isn’t possible (which it should be), it’s not going to happen.
@lichme Yeah, I’d want dual citizenship, too.
In and Out or Tim Hortons?
@Ignorant Tim Hortons no question
Milk or dark chocolate? Or no chocolate at all?
@MrDemocritus Milk chocolate unless it has almonds in it
@MrDemocritus dark chocolate
Does your home country not have elections?
@therealjrn It does
@lichme Do you vote in any of them?
@therealjrn Canadians who have been expats for over 5 years aren’t allowed to vote since 2011. There is a supreme court ruling pending to change the laws.
@lichme Why that’s unAmeri…er…unCanadian!
building on a previous question: chocolate or chips?
@Kidsandliz Chips (no not chocolate chips)
Chocolate or Lemon?
@mehcuda67 Lemon
Tim Hortons or Dunkin Donuts?
@Ignorant Tim Hortons
how is your username said, phoenetically?
@Yoda_Daenerys See earlier questions
@Yoda_Daenerys We just call him Lisa.
@therealjrn @Yoda_Daenerys Why not Al?
Please explain the founding fathers concerns with a two party political system. In your explanation please use historical as well as current examples of what the forefathers feared. Then please compare and contrast America’s two party system with a democracy that contains more than two major parties.
@bleedmichigan Do your own damn homework
