Haha I saw that earlier. Her laugh is hysterical
Yeah, I really love seeing people enjoy the little things. I'd be losing my mind if I had that mask too.
edit: Also just how fucking good is Ether Drift by Com Truise to this day?
Really fucking good.

I don't enjoy handshakes at all. They're just a greeting/display of power to me.
Hugs are fine. Not side hugs, though, and it can't be my first time meeting you. First meeting hugs creep me out.
it's such a relief that there are a few people in this thread that share my musical taste.
I remember that we talked about the slackers at one point too.
how do you feel about autechre? I'm currently listening to amber

I'am confused now also if you don't mind me asking, how did the club go last night?
Yasss someone else here loves FSW, i'll buy it on Steam and never play it ever. That is an actual military simulator. It's so weird at how it never got the CoD treatment back in the day.
Best hugs are hugs that start the process when you're halfway across the room

*had forgotten about her being a character*
Yeah Alien is better than Aliens
You mean that tractor beam feeling of getting pulled away from wherever you were going towards the person when they spot you like a Pokemon Trainer?
Wedding today. I have no idea why I'm nervous. All I have to do is walk. But this is my first time being part of a formal wedding party.
Both are really important and influential films. I like to say that Alien is probably the better movie, but most times I'd rather watch Aliens.
Sorry to hear that. I know it's nice to go to someone's wedding because you'd hope they would go to yours, but holy shit do I not want to be at a wedding.
I'm an awful person.

I don't even know what those words mean
No you misunderstand
Aliens has that annoying child and is therefore both worse and less entertaining
Well it's my cousin's wedding (one of the few cousins that I like) and she asked for my help. I'm glad I was able to get my feet into these size 14's because I don't really have any formal shoes that fit the occasion. Big feet suck outside of swimming and balancing.
No when your eyes meet and you both put out your arms and run towards each other
I first did it when I was 6. NBD really
Ah. I don't put my arms out until I'm within range.
You haven't experienced the greatest of hugs
Non-family hugs aren't that common for me because I don't see my friends in person that often. Only my female friends do actual hugs. For male friends we do the handshake pull into one-armed hug
It is! I just don't like exams.
If you can make games you can understand this!I kinda do but... I'm shtupid
It's working with randomness and probabilities in systems. So like, if this thing happened today, what's the probability of this other thing happening in three days?
Depends on the starting position. You have a slightly higher chance on it being side that it was tossed from.
I'm just going to assume we don't look at the starting position, if that is true, to keep it 50/50.
I know this is stupid, because a proper coin toss is 50/50, but there's an increasingly low statistical probability of getting the same result each successive time.. And yet it's also 50/50 each time. I find this confusing even though it's probably stupid
I don't want to touch the inside of anyone's hands
And if I do have to shake someone's hand, I don't want you to try to crush it to prove some kind of caveman point. My hands are delicate
I hate handshakes

You can gauge a lot about someone from a handshake. A good, strong, solid handshake invokes mutual respect and trust.
Never trust someone you offers you a dead fish of a hand.
Also americans, i tried a hershey's chocolate bar, why the fuck is your chocolate so weird. I'm not a huge fan of chocolate anyway, but it leaves the weirdest aftertaste. Bleh
it's 50/50 each toss, no matter the previous results.
Noone said anything about crushing people's hands, too tight handshakes are just as bad. As strong handshake is not the same as a hydraulic press handshake.
As far as im concerned people here are not to be trusted.

It has been discovered as a part of a research in the Weizmann Institute, that human handshakes serve as a means of transferring social chemical signals between the shakers. It appears that there is a tendency to bring the shaken hands to the vicinity of the nose and smell them. They may serve an evolutionary need to learn about the person whose hand was shaken, replacing a more overt sniffing behavior, as is common among animals and in certain human cultures (un Tuvalu, Greenland or rural Mongolia, where a quick sniff is part of the traditional greeting ritual).

Bullpup is not a type of weapon. It is what you call a rifle where the action, where the firing pin contacts the round is behind the trigger group. FAMAS is a french rifle, of a bullpup design.
I didn't go last night, I stayed home and drank wine and played Doom and Legacy of the Wizard on NES.
I'm going tonight against my better judgement.
Also, I'm a hugger with friends, rarely shake hands, but I guess it's because handshakes aren't really a thing in my profession. Hand salutes or verbal greetings.
Randomly playing some random ass NES or SNES game is MY thing though
And what's the problem? You doing the swinger thing tonight?
the military has this part nailed
Can be*
I do enjoy those fun moments with them though. Now that my nieces are older and nephew is getting older they're pretty interesting to talk to even.
I bought DOOM, cause I like to have fun fun funfunfunfun fun funfunfun!
All of them are at that perfect stage where they just believe anything you tell them and are perfectly innocent. The oldest is six.
Younger nephew tells me he wants to go walk to the playground so we walk over there. He goes down the slide once and is like "Let's go back now." Needed to make sure mom and dad still existed.

I only use my bow as a "thank you very much" type of response.
Sounds like the filter on their brain that controls what comes out of their mouth needs replacing.
If it's a fair coin (probability of heads is .5) the chance is (.5)^10 which is 0.00098. Not very likely!
Your second question is actually a very good question! What you're referring to is a concept called the gambler's ruin. So as you saw, it's very unlikely to get 10 heads in a row. But once you've actually flipped the coin, whatever happens can't affect the next flip. (It's not like the coin "remembers.") So no matter how many heads you got before in the actual act, your next flip will always have heads with probability .5. But if we were do an experiment where we flipped a coin 10 times, wrote down what we got, and repeated the process say 10000 times, only about 9.8 (so about 10) of those individual trials would have 10 flips that all landed on heads. That's what probability means. Not exactly what will happen next, but what would happen over time.
Or they could just think better things. Like I'm pretty cynical about romantic relationships and quasi-nihilist about life in general but jesus I'm not going to contend that every woman is out to dick over a guy. And I've been dicked over pretty hard.
I had a similar experience, where I was at the playground with my 4 year old nephew. Swing and slides, then he started to miss mom (she was just dropping off my nieces at a class in the same park).
That's because you know you're being irrational and dumb when that thought comes into your head so it never gets translated into speech. The strength of the filter and what it filters changes with society but it's always been there.
In Spanish we call that mamitis.
