Damn it, I knew I should've invested years of my life into cookie lore for a brand not sold in my country!
Probably more useful than 40k lore, but less useful than LotR lore.

You need to be specific about which type of elves this is.

If we're talking LotR, elves are immortal.
If we're talking 40k, Eldrad is 10,000+ years old.
If we're talking WoW, it's a couple thousand years.
If we're talking D&D, elves live like 750 years.
If we're talking Shadowrun, Elves lit's all over the place.

There are some that were wrong to begin with, I remember 622 bothering me.

But it could also just be that in the comic, the professor is wrong.

There are 2 Tim Horton's, both of which are disappointments.

  1. a hockey player who got really, really drunk, did some barbiturates, then drove so fast that when they crashed the car flipped several times, and they died about 40m away.

  2. A fast food chain that uses their phone to illegally track you (even when the app was closed), and the Privacy Commissioner of Canada decided that was okay as long as they gave everyone a coffee and a donut. The material cost for those items is well under a dollar. They also don't make their baked goods at the stores.

I think that if a guardian attests that their 16 year old is ready to vote, they should be allowed to.

I feel that people who don't agree with the child's politics may not allow them to vote.

There isn't a reason for a single-stall washroom not to be neutral, even if you hate trans people.

Would you rather be forced to wait to use a bathroom even when there are some available?
Is your single-occupant bathroom at home divided by gender?

They call us LGBTQ people "flamers" after all.

If you're not from Canada and you see this, understand that the National Post is a right-wing paper that Rex had written for.

Rex loved the fossil fuel corporations and used "woke" as an insult. A lot of Canadians are not going to miss him.

I think that OP is work-shopping a short story.

This post feels familiar, so I looked at the account history.

Little details change here and there, but the guy is always the exact same size, and they always meet on reddit:

Therapists don't tell other people things about their clients.
Nut allergies don't prevent you from flying.

Based on her other posts, at the end of the story she's going to get away either because of a solar flare giving him a heart attack, or by playing a loud burst through his headphones.
