In the book series The Stormlight Archive, there is a character whose intelligence changes every day. He takes a test every morning to determine his capabilities for that day. As the ruler of a kingdom, he's not allowed to do certain things if he's too stupid, or sometimes even too smart that day.

I think a little test like that would be nice. If you have dementia but can pass a test every once in a while, ok maybe life is still worth living. I figure some days will be better than others. But if you can't figure out some basic things for like a month straight, maybe it's time to check out.

I got the yard raked, maybe I should overseed if it melts during the day before the next snow.

I also think I got less snow than you.

My fault. I took my winter tires off the car.

I couldn't glance past this title without thinking it had something to do with Johnathan Frakes.

I guess I should also have an on topic comment. Are fraking earthquakes really dangerous? I know earthquakes are scary and the idea that humans can make one should be mind blowing, but I can't help but think they've never been very strong. I guess I would feel differently if I lived in a geologically active area.

Oh, I need this. I usually go with heavy metal remixes of video game music when I can but I haven't found anyone that has done Tristram properly yet.

I'm glad someone got that reference!

Hrm, Sundar Pichai took over as CEO 9 years ago. Weird coincidence.

Yeah, but he'll be the one who gets the room next to the noisy ice machine for all eternity.

Don't forget: "What's that sound? It's OBAMA'S MUSIC! HE'S TAGGING IN!"

Bill and George are just hanging out nodding their heads.

I put on Pee-Wee's big adventure the other day just to see how it hold up and was amazed at the number of lines that were a huge part of my childhood. So much of his banter was gold for kids to repeat ad nauseum.

I wouldnt call a few downvotes 'less civil'. Without the edit, the parent comment looked like a weird non sequitur. With the comment there was more context and now it has a lot of upvotes.

Agreed. I usually skip dialog in most games, but Hades had me taking to everyone, and it was fun! Crazy good game and I can't wait for #2.
